Using the Warming Zone
(on some models)
The
WARMING ZONE
, located in the back
center of the glass surface, will keep hot,
cooked food at serving temperature.
Always start with hot food. Do not use
to heat cold food. Placing uncooked or
cold food on the
WARMING ZONE
could
result in food-borne illness.
Push and turn the control knob to any
desired setting.
For best results, all foods on the
WARMING ZONE
should be covered with
a lid or aluminum foil. When warming
pastries or breads, the cover should be
vented to allow moisture to escape.
Always use potholders or oven mitts when
removing food from the
WARMING ZONE
,
as cookware and plates will be hot.
CAUTION:
Do not warm food on the
WARMING ZONE
for more than two hours.
NOTE:
The surface warmer will not glow red like
the cooking elements.
A
HOT
surface indicator light will glow
when the glass surface is hot and will
remain on until the surface is cool
enough to touch. Lower settings may not
heat the glass surface enough to cause the
HOT
surface indicator light to come on.
A
WARMING ZONE
indicator light will
glow when the unit is on.
■
Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic
may melt onto the surface and be very difficult
to clean.
■
Use only cookware recommended for
top-of-range cooking.
