SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Warm Zone
Use the warm zone feature to keep cooked foods hot.
Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat
cold food on the warm zone. All food placed on the warm
zone should be covered with a lid to maintain quality.
For best results, when warming pastries or breads, the
cover should have an opening to allow moisture to escape.
Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt
onto the surface and be very difficult to clean. Use only
dishware, utensils, and cookware recommended for oven
and cooktop use on the warm zone.
Setting the warm zone control:
1. Push in the knob and turn in either direction (see
Figure 8). The temperatures are designated by hi and
lo. However, the control can be set at any position
between hi and lo for different levels of warming.
2. When ready to serve, turn the control to OFF. The hot
surface indicator light will remain on until the warm zone
cools. .
Temperature selection - Refer to
the recommended warm zone
settings table (see
Table 2). If a
particular food is not listed, start with
the medium level and adjust as
needed. Most foods can be kept at
serving temperatures by using the
medium level.
• Unlike the surface elements, the warm zone will not
glow red when it is hot. To avoid burns always use
potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the
cooktop, including the warm zone, as cookware and
plates will be hot.
• Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled
after they have been turned off. The glass surface
may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass
surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
• Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt
and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic
wrappings on the cooktop when it is in use. These
items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or
wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to
the surface elements.
CAUTION
Food Poisoning Hazard: do not let food sit for more than 1
hour before or after cooking. Doing so may result in food
borne illness.

Do not allow aluminum foil or ANY material that can melt
to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop. If these
items melt on the cooktop, they will damage the ceramic
cooktop.
