Setting Surface Controls
TM
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 su ciently.
Always use potholders or oven mitts when
removing food from the warmer zone as cookware and
plates will be hot.
Do not place aluminum foil, plastic items
such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These
items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden
spoons could catch re if placed too close to the surface
elements.
Refer to the warmer zone
recommended food heat settings (Fig. 2). If a particular
food is not listed, start with the medium heat setting and
adjust as needed. Most foods may be kept at serving
temperatures by using the medium heat setting.

• For best results, when warming pastries or breads, any
covering used should have an opening to allow moisture
to escape. Use only cookware and utensils recommended
for oven and cooktop use on the warmer zone.
• The warmer zone heat level may be adjusted at any time
when the warmer zone is turned ON.
• Use only plates, utensils and cookware recommended for
oven and ceramic cooktop use. Do not use plastic wrap
or aluminum foil to cover food. Plastic or aluminum foil
can melt onto the cooktop.
