Surface Cooking

Warming Center (style may vary by model)

Use the Warming Center to keep hot cooked foods warm, such as vegetables, gravies and oven-safe dinner plates.

Setting the Control:

Touch the Surface Warming Center pad and then the Autoset pad. Press Autoset pad again to turn off.

Notes:

Never warm food for longer than one hour (eggs for 30 minutes), as food quality may deteriorate.

Do not heat cold food on the Warming Center.

Warming temperatures of the food will vary depending on type and amount of food. Always hold food at proper food temperatures. USDA recommends food temperatures between 140°-170°F.

Use only cookware and dishes recommended as safe for oven and cooktop use.

Always use oven mitts when removing food from the Warming Center as cookware and plates will be hot.

All foods should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain food quality.

When warming pastries and breads the cover should have an opening to allow moisture to escape.

Do not use plastic wrap to cover foods. Plastic may melt on to the surface and be very difficult to clean.

Tips to Protect the

Smoothtop Surface

Cleaning (see page 20 for more information)

Before first use, clean the cooktop.

Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep your cooktop looking good and can prevent damage.

If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediately clean the spill from the cooking area while it is hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe spill with a clean dry towel.

Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the cooktop trim for a long period of time.

Never use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads which will scratch the cooktop.

Never use chlorine bleach, ammonia or other cleansers not specifically recommended for use on glass-ceramic.

To Prevent Marks & Scratches

Do not use glass pans. They may scratch the surface.

Never place a trivet or wok ring between the surface and pan. These items can mark or etch the top.

Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface. The pans may leave marks which need to be removed promptly. (See Cleaning, page 20.)

Make sure the surface and the pan bottom are clean before turning on to prevent scratches.

To prevent scratching or damage to the glass-ceramic top, do not leave sugar, salt or fats on the cooking area. Wipe the cooktop surface with a clean cloth or paper towel before using.

Never slide heavy metal pans across the surface since these may scratch.

To Prevent Stains

Never use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the cooktop surface. A film will remain which may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is heated.

Continuously cooking on a soiled surface may/will result in a permanent stain.

To Prevent Other Damage

Do not allow plastic, sugar or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the hot cooktop. Should this happen, clean immediately. (See Cleaning, page 20.)

Never let a pan boil dry as this will damage the surface and pan.

Never use cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.

Never cook food directly on the surface.

Do not use a small pan on a large element. Not only does this waste energy, but it can also result in spillovers burning onto the cooking area which requires extra cleaning.

Do not use non-flat specialty items that are oversized or uneven such as round bottom woks, rippled bottom and/or oversized canners and griddles.

Do not use foil or foil-type containers. Foil may melt onto the glass. If metal melts on the cooktop, do not use. Call an authorized Maytag Servicer.
