Keep warm zone
The purpose of the warmer zone is to keep hot cooked
foods at serving temperature. Use the warmer zone to
keep cooked foods hot such as: vegetables, gravies,
casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe
dinner plates. Always start with hot food. Do not heat
cold food on the warmer zone.
All food placed on the warmer zone should be covered
with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming pastries
or breads, the cover should have an opening to allow
moisture to escape.
For best results, when warming pastries or breads,
the cover should have an opening to allow moisture
to escape. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food,
Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very
difficult to clean, Use only plates, utensils and
cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use on the
keep warm zone.

ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch
fire if placed too close to the surface elements.

; can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass
cooktop, If these items melt on the cooktop they will
damage the ceramic cooktop.
