Simmer Feature

The Simmer feature is an adjustable heat setting for more precise simmering. It is the right front (and left rear on some models) surface cooking areas or elements. When the Simmer feature is not on, the right front surface cooking areas or elements will function as usual.

When this feature is on, the wattage to the burner is significantly reduced. It provides a wide range of temperatures for simmering. Choose from the higher levels for stocks and water-based foods or the lower levels for sauces, puddings and gravies.

To Use:

1.Set SIMMER switch to ON (press left).

2.Select desired temperate setting from LO to HI.

3.Set SIMMER switch to OFF (press right) when finished for element to work normally.

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 Warm Zone 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 Warm Zone Element can be used alone or when any of the other surface cooking areas are being used. The Warm Zone Element area will not glow red when cycling on. However, its indicator light will glow as long as the Warm Zone 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.

To Use:

1.Set switch to ON (press left). The switch lights up when the Warm Zone Element is on.

2.Set switch to OFF (press right) when finished.
