Setting Warmer (Warm & Ready™) Zone
Operating the Warmer (Warm & Ready™) 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. It is not recommended
to 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 or aluminum foil to cover food. Plastic or aluminum may melt
onto the surface.
Use only plates, utensils and cookware recommended for oven and
cooktop use on the Warmer Zone.
Warmer Zone Temperature Selection
Refer to the Warmer Zone table for recommended heating levels (Figure
1). If a particular 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 Warmer Zone Control:
NOTE: The controls and indicator light are located on the control panel.
1. Touch the pad at the Warmer Zone control position. The Warmer Zone indicator light will

5 power levels from HI (see Figure 2) through MED (see Figure 4) to LO (see Figure 5). The power
level may be adjusted at any time while the Warmer Zone is ON.
4. When it is time to serve the food, touch the
Warmer Zone indicator light will turn OFF.
Note: The Hot Surface indicator light will remain ON if the cooktop is still hot and will remain ON
until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently (see Figure 3).
Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
Do not place aluminum foil or 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 or burners.
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 Warmer Zone 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.
