Keep warm zone (Models B & C only)
The purpose of the keep warm zone is to keep hot
cooked foods at serving temperature. Use the keep warm
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. It is not recommended to
heat cold food on the keep warm zone. All food placed
on the keep 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. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food,
Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very
difficult to clean. Use only plates, utensils and
cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use on the
keep warm zone.
