SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Warmer Zone
Use the feature to keep cooked foods hot such as vegeta-
bles, gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, and
pastries at serving temperature.
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.
To set the warmer zone control:
1. Turn the warmer zone control knob clockwise to the
desired heat setting. The warmer zone is 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. The
warmer zone is on when the indicator light is on,
Bridge Control
On the left side of the cooktop there are two single elements
with a bridge element between them. When turned on, the
bridge control allows for a larger cooking area by cycling at
the same temperature as the left front element and can
accommodate specialized cookware.
To operate the bridge element:
1. Turn the control knob clockwise to activate the front
element and the bridge element.
2. To turn on the front element only, turn the control knob
counter-clockwise to the desired setting.
3. When the bridge element is active, it will maintain the
same heat setting as the left front element.
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.
