About the warmer zone
Use the warmer zone (Fig. 6) to keep hot cooked
foods warm such as; vegetables, gravies,
casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and
oven-safe dinner plates. DO NOT heat cold food
using the warmer zone.
Warmer zone temperature selection
Refer to the recommended warmer zone food
settings choosing a food type to keep warm -Fig.
5-. If a particular food is not listed, start with the
medium heat level and adjust as needed. Most
foods can be kept at serving temperatures when
using the medium setting.
For best results
• Always start with hot cooked food.
• When warming pastries or breads the cover
should have an opening to allow moisture to
escape.
• All food placed on the warmer zone should be
covered with a lid to maintain moisture.

cause burns. Avoid placing hands on or near the

potholders or oven mitts when removing food
