SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Keep Warm Zone (some models) 
The purpose of the keep warm zone is to keep hot cooked 
foods at serving temperature. Use the keep warm feature to 
keep cooked foods hot such as: vegetables, gravies, casse-
roles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner 
plates.
Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat 
cold food on the keep warm zone. All food placed on the 
keep warm zone should be covered with a lid to maintain 
quality.
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.
Keep warm zone temperature selection
 for recommended heating levels. If a partic-
ular food is not listed, start with the medium level, and 
adjust as needed. Most foods can be kept at serving 
temperatures by using the medium level.
To Set the keep warm zone control:
1. Push in either direction and turn the warmer zone 
control knob to the desired temperature level (See 
). The temperatures are approximate, and are 
designated by hi (high), med (medium), and lo (low). 
However, the control can be set at any position between 
hi and lo for different levels of warming.
2. When ready to serve, turn the warmer zone control 
knob to OFF position. The warmer zone will remain hot 
until the hot surface indicator light turns off.

The keep warm zone will not glow red when it is hot, but 
becomes hot enough to cause burns. Avoid placing 
hands on or near the keep warm zone until the keep 
warm zone hot surface indicator light is off. Always use 
potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the 
keep warm zone as cookware and plates will be hot.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper 
shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top of the 
range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. 
Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if 
placed too close to the surface elements.
Do not allow aluminum foil, empty glass/porcelain 
cookware or any material that can melt to make contact 
with the ceramic cooktop. If these items melt on the 
cooktop they may damage the ceramic cooktop.
Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food 
from the warmer zone as cookware and plates will be hot.
