Single and Dual-Size Elements

position to the SINGLE zone anywhere between LO and HI.

DUAL zone anywhere between LO and HI.

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.

Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic wrap may melt.

Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food.
