For best results, all foods on the WARMING ZONE should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil.

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

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.

NOTE: The WARMING ZONE will not glow red like the cooking elements.

The chart above shows initial suggested settings only. The temperature, type and amount of food, type of pan and the time held will affect the quality of the food.

CAUTION: Do not leave food on the WARMING ZONE for more than 2 hours.

■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.
