Simmer Feature (somemodels)
The Simmer feature is an adjustable setting
which allows for more
precise simmering of foods.

normal wattage (1800 W). When in the "ON"
position, it operates the right front element'
at a lower wattage (450 W).
NOTE: All other elements can be used for
normal operation whether the Simmer
feature is in use or not.
Warm Zone Feature (somemodels)

w,t.,,o,L=._,, cooked foods warm. It is not
=' recommended for heating
cold foods. The Warm Zone
is located in the center of
your cooktop. Set switch to "ON" for use.
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 warming 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 Warm Zone element will not glow red
when it is on, unlike the surface
elements. However, the surface indicator
light on the cooktop will glow.
