Under the oven of the HII8047U sits a warming drawer, a feature that appears in this range’s mode list alongside the usual convection programs. The range itself is an 800 Series induction slide-in in black stainless. Above the drawer, its electric convection oven has 4.6 cu ft and runs broil, warm, roast, convection roast and pizza programs.
The drawer is a small system of its own, with its own element and thermostat. When a customer reports it no longer warms, nothing has happened in the oven above, and the repair stays contained. Heavy dishes can also make the runners bind, which feels like a heating problem and is not.
Black stainless coating wears around the handle over time. Bosch lists what may be kept in the drawer, so follow it and keep plastics and flammable items out of a heated drawer at all times. We check the drawer’s element and thermostat first and the runners second.
Yes. The drawer works on its own element and thermostat, so when it fails, the repair is confined to the drawer and the oven above is left alone.
Only items Bosch lists as suitable. Plastic and anything that burns easily should stay out of a drawer with a heating element, whether or not it is on at the moment.
Take out the heavy load first and check whether the runners are binding. A stuck drawer feels like a heating problem at first, but it is usually the runners, and they can be inspected quickly.
