SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Dual Surface Radiant Element (some models)
The expandable burner can handle 9 inch or 12 inch 
cookware. This dual burner is especially useful for bringing 
large cookware to boil for canning or heating large amounts 
of water.  
To operate the dual surface element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface 
element.
2. Push in and turn the control knob toward the inner 
element side for smaller cookware or to the dual 
element side for larger cookware (See 
). 
3. Turn the knob to adjust the setting as needed. Start 
most cooking operations on a higher setting and then 
turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface 
element provides a constant amount of heat at each 
setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending 
beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the 
cookware is too small for the surface heating area.
4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control 
knob to OFF before removing the cookware.
Warmer Zone 
The purpose of the warmer zone is to keep hot cooked 
foods at serving temperature. Use the feature 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 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 
warmer zone.
To set the keep warmer zone control:
1. Turn the warmer zone control knob clockwise to the ON 
position. The warmer zone uses a pre-set temperature 
designed to keep foods at serving temperature.
2. When ready to serve, turn the warmer zone control 
knob to the off position. The warmer zone will remain 
hot until the hot surface indicator light turns off.

Do not straddle cookware between two cooking surfaces 
unless the designed for that specific purpose (griddles) 
CAUTION
The warmer zone will not glow red when it is hot, but 
becomes hot enough to cause burns. Avoid placing 
hands on or near the warmer zone until the hot surface 
indicator light is off. Always use potholders or oven mitts 
when removing food from the warmer zone as cookware 
and plates will be hot.

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.
