will depend on the amount
and type of food, the storting
temperature of the food and the
length of the holding time.
Using the COOK-WARM Zone
The COOK-WARM 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
COOK-WARM ZONE could result in food-borne
illness.
Push and turn the control knob to any desired
setting.
For best results, all foods on the
COOK-WARM 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 pot holders or oven mitts when
removing food from the COOK-WARM ZONE, as
cookware and plates will be hot.
ACAUTION:
Do not warm food on
the COOK-WARM ZONE for more than two
hours.
NOTE: The surface cook-warm zone 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 COOK-WARM 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 fortop-of-
range cooking.
Home Canning Tips
Be sure the canner is centered over the surface
unit.
Make sure the canner is flat on the bottom.
To prevent burns from steam or heat,
use caution when canning.
Use recipes and procedures from reputable
sources. These are available from
manufacturers such as Ball^ and Kerr^ and the
Department of Agriculture Extension Service.
Flat-bottomed canners are recommended. Use
of water bath canners with rippled bottoms
may extend the time required
to bring the water to a boil.
Use only flat-bottomed woks.
Wok Cooking
We recommend that you use only a flat-
bottomed wok. They are avallabie at your local
retail store.
Do not use woks that have support rings.
Do not use round-bottom woks. You could be
seriously burned if the wok tipped over.
