Melt Element
The Melt cooking element offers flexibility due to a wide range of
settings between Hi and Melt. The Hi heat option can be used to
boil small amounts of liquid quickly. To reduce the power setting,
turn the knob clockwise. The Melt setting is designed for delicate
foods that require low heat, such as when melting chocolate or
holding sauces. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Melt
cooking element.
Warm Zone Element
Use the Cooktop Warm Zone element to keep cooked foods
warm. One hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain
food quality.
Do not use it to heat cold foods.
The Warm Zone element can be used alone or when any of the
other surface cooking areas are being used.
The Warm Zone element area will not glow red when cycling on.
However, the Cooktop On indicator light will be displayed when
the Warm Zone is in use.
Use only cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use.
Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming
baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover for moisture
to escape.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use plastic wrap to
cover food because the plastic wrap may melt.
Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food.
To Use:
1. To turn on, press COOKTOP WARM ZONE ON/OFF and then
COOKTOP WARM ZONE CONFIRM.
2. To turn off, press COOKTOP WARM ZONE ON/OFF.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper
may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used
as a base, they can leave permanent marks on the surfaces.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has
the same characteristics as its base material. For example,
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the
properties of aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the
broiler.
