Using the Keep Warm element
Use the Keep Warm element to keep cooked foods
warm. It is not recommended for heating cold
foods. Choose the MIN setting for heat-sensitive
and smaller quantities of food. Choose the MAX
setting for liquids and larger quantities of food.
Adjust as needed.
To set the Keep Warm element:
1. Push in and turn the control knob to the desired
setting from MIN to MAX for different levels of
heating.
2. Turn the knob to OFF when finished. The Keep
Warm element will remain warm until the surface
indicator light on the cooktop goes off.
•
Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. Do
not use plastic wrap to cover food because it
may melt onto the cooktop surface. When warm-
ing baked goods, allow a small opening in the
cover for moisture to escape.
•
Use only cookware and dishes recommended for
oven and cooktop use.
•
Use potholders or oven mitts to remove food.
•
The Keep Warm element will not glow red when
it is on, unlike the surface elements. However,
the surface indicator light on the cooktop will
glow.
•
The Keep Warm element may be used whether
the other elements are in use or not.
•
The quality of the food may deteriorate if it is
kept on the Keep Warm element for an extended
period of time.
