Warming zone
The purpose of the warming zone is to maintain cooked foods
at serving temperatures.
Always start with hot, cooked foods. It is not recommended to
heat cold food to serving temperatures. Foods like vegetables,
gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, and pastries work
well on the warming zone. The warming zone works well for
warming oven-safe dinner plates.
Warming zone temperature selection
Refer to the suggested settings when choosing a setting for
food. If a particular food is not listed, start with the med setting
and adjust as needed. Most foods may be kept at serving
temperatures when using the med setting.
IMPORTANT!
Use only plates, cookware, and utensils recommended for oven
and ceramic cooktop use. Do not use plastic wrap or aluminum
foil to cover foods. Plastic or aluminum foil may melt onto the
ceramic cooktop
.
To operate the warming zone:
• Unlike other radiant elements on conventional ranges, the
warming zone will not glow red when it is hot. To avoid
possible burns always use potholders or oven mitts when
moving food to and from the warming zone. Cookware or
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 & pepper
shakers, spoon holders, plastic wrappings or aluminum foil
on top of the range 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 warmer zone.
