TM)
Zone
The Worm & Ready
TM
zone radiant
element
is located
at the center rear position
(Figure 1).
The purpose of the Warmer
Zone is to keep hot cooked
foods at serving temperature.
Use
the Warmer
Zone 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 Warmer
Zone.
All food
placed
on the warmer
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
or olumlnum
fall to cover
food.
Plastic
or
olumlnum
may melt onto the surface.
The Warmer
Zone will not glow red when it is hot, but becomes
hot enough
to cause burns.
Always
use potholders
or oven mitts when removing
food from the warmer
zone as cookware
and plates will be hot.
Use only plates,
utensils and cookware
recommended
for oven and cooktop
use on the
Warmer
Zone.
