Setting the Warmer (Warm & Ready™) Zone (some models)

The purpose of the Warmer Zone is to

keep hot cooked foods

at

serving

temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold

food on the WarmerZone.

All food placed on the Warmer Zone should be covered with a lid or aluminum
foil to maintain quality. For best results, when warming pastries or breads, the

cover should have an opening to aiiow moisture to escape.

Do not use plastic

wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very

difficult to clean.

Use only dishware, utensils and cookware recommended for oven and cooktop
use on the Warmer Zone.

Unlike the surface elements, the Warmer Zone will not glow red

iàCAUTION

when it is hot.

iàCAUTION

I Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from

the warm zone as cookware and plates will be hot.
