The Warmer Guide is for reference only and the SETTING that you need will depend on the amount and type of food, the starting temperature of the food and the length of the holding time.

Using the Warming Zone

The WARMING ZONE, located in the back center of the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. Do not use to heat cold food. Placing uncooked or cold food on the WARMING ZONE could result in food-borne illness.

Push and turn the control knob to any desired setting.

For best results, all foods on the

WARMING ZONE should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming pastries or breads, the cover should be vented to allow moisture to escape.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the WARMING ZONE, since cookware and plates will be hot.

CAUTION: Do not warm food on the WARMING ZONE for more than two hours.

NOTE: The surface warmer will not glow red like the cooking elements.

A HOT surface indicator light will glow when the glass surface is hot and will remain on until the surface is cool enough to touch. Lower settings may not heat the glass surface enough to cause the HOT surface indicator light to come on.

A WARMING ZONE indicator light will glow when the unit is on.

■Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to clean.

■Use only cookware recommended for top-of-range cooking.

Tips Care and

Home Canning Tips

Be sure the canner is centered over the surface unit.

Make sure the canner is flat on the bottom.

To prevent burns from steam or heat, use caution when canning.

Use recipes and procedures from reputable sources. These are available from manufacturers such as Ball® and Kerr® and the Department of Agriculture Extension Service.

Flat-bottomed canners are recommended. Use of water bath canners with rippled bottoms may extend the time required to bring the water to a boil.
