Using the Warming Zone (on some models)
The WARMING ZONE is located in the
back center of the glass surface. Always
start with hot food. Do not use to heat
cold food. Placing uncooked or cold food
on the WARMING ZONE could result in
foodborne 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.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts
when removing food from the
WARMING ZONE, as cookware will be hot.
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.
NOTE: The WARMING ZONE will not glow red
like the cooking elements.

The chart above shows initial suggested settings only.
The temperature, type and amount of food, type of pan
and the time held will affect the quality of the food.
CAUTION:
Do not leave food on the
WARMING ZONE for more than 2 hours.
■
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.
