WARM
ZONE
The purpose
of the warm
zone is to keep hot cooked
foods at
serving
temperature.
Use the WARM ZONE feature
to keep
cooked
foods hot such as; vegetables,
gravies,
casseroles,
soups,
stews, breads,
pastries
and oven safe dinner
plates.
Always
start with hot food.
Do not heat cold food
with the warm
zone. All food
placed
on the warm
zone should
be covered
with
a lid to maintain
quality.
For best results, when warming
pastries
or breads,
the cover
should
have an opening
to allow
moisture
to escape.
Use only dishware,
utensils and cookware
that is
recommended
for oven and cooktop
use on the warm
zone.
Unlike
other radiant
surface
elements,
the
warmer
zone will not glow
red when it is hot. The glass surface
may still be hot and burns can occur
if the glass surface
is
touched
before
it has cooled
sufficiently.
