Keep Warm Element

WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit for more than one hour before
or after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or
sickness.
Use the Keep Warm Element to keep cooked foods warm. One
hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain food
quality.
Do not use it to heat cold foods.
The Keep Warm Element can be used alone or when any of the
other surface cooking areas are being used, and can be set from
MIN to MAX for different levels of heating.
The Keep Warm Element area will not glow red when cycling on.
However, its indicator light will glow as long as the Keep Warm
Element area is too hot to touch.
Use only cookware and dishes recommended for oven and
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.

Ceramic Glass

(on some models)
The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It
will cycle on and off, at all settings, to maintain the selected heat
level.
It is normal for the surface of white ceramic glass to appear to
change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass
cools, it will return to its original color.
Wiping off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it
free from stains and provide the most even heating. For more
information, see “General Cleaning” section.
Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a
heavy or hard object on the cooktop could crack it.
