How to Use the Warming Center on Your Samsung Stove - Complete Guide

Using the warming center

The warming center, located in the back center of the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food at serving temperature.

• Do not warm food on the warming center for more than two hours.

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

•Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the warming center as cookware and plates will be hot.

•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 onto the surface and be very diffi cult to clean.

•Food should be kept in its container and covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain food quality.

•Always start with hot food. Eating uncooked or cold food placed on the warming center could result in illness.

1. Turn the warming center on.

Press the WARMING CENTER ON/OFF pad.

2. Select the power setting you want.

Pressing the WARMING CENTER LEVEL pad once will set it to the level 1 setting. Press the pad twice for the level 2 setting, 3 times for level 3.

. Turn the warming center off.

Press the WARMING CENTER ON/OFF pad.

• Pressing the CLEAR/OFF pad does not turn the warming center off.

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

•For best results, all foods on the warming center should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming pastries or breads, the cover should be vented to allow moisture to escape.
