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, the Element On light will glow while the Warm Zone element is in use. The Hot Surface 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.

To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use plastic wrap to cover food because the plastic wrap may melt.

Use pot holders or oven mitts to remove food.

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It may cycle on and off to maintain the selected heat level.

It is normal for the surface of light colored ceramic glass to appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass cools, it will return to its original color.

Cleaning off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it free from stains and provide the most even heating. On cooktops with light colored ceramic glass, soils and stains may be more visible, and may require more cleaning and attention. Cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are recommended. For more information, see “General Cleaning” section.

Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.

To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.

For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills using a scraper while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.

To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.

Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that cannot be removed completely.

To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.

To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.

Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking area. Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the area.
