Keep Warm Function
Each zone is equipped with a keep warm function that is designed to
keep food at a stable temperature. This allows the serving of food to
be delayed and also for the melting of butter or chocolate. The "Keep
warm" function is available between "0" and "1" heat settings and is
shown on a cooking zone display as " ".

zone's display (5) and set the power level using the heat setting
slider sensor (2) to " ". This level is between heat levels "0" and "1".

limited to two hours in order to keep food as safe as possible.

active (indicated by a decimal point next to the zone display's
