BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
The ceramic cooktop has inductors and radiant surface 
elements located below the surface of the glass. The 
design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the 
surface element underneath. Make sure the diameter of 
the pan matches the diameter of the element outline on 
the cooktop (See Figs. 1 to 4).
Only fl at-bottom cookware should be used. The type 
and size of cookware, the number of surface elements 
in use and their settings are all factors that will affect 
the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the 
surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements 
may become hot enough to cause burns.
NOTE
Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass 
cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning 
section and Before You Call checklist section of this 
Use and Care Guide.

About the Radiant Surface Elements
The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. 
As the temperature rises, the element will glow red. To 
maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle ON 
and OFF. The heating element retains enough heat to 
provide a uniform and consistent heat during the OFF 
cycle. For effi cient cooking, turn OFF the element several 
minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow 
residual heat to complete the cooking process.
Locations of the Surface Radiant  & 
Induction Elements
Your cooktop is equipped with radiant surface radiant 
elements with different wattage ratings. The ability to 
heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the 
element wattage increases.
The surface elements are located on the 30” cooktop as 
follows (Figure 1):
•  Two 7 inch radiant elements are located at the left front 
and rear positions.
•  One mid-position radiant element located between left 
front and rear element. Connects with front element to 
form Bridge element.
•  One 6 inch induction element located at the right rear 
position.
•  One 10 inch induction element located at the right front 
position.
The surface elements are located on the 36” cooktop as 
follows (Figure 2):
•  Two 7 inch radiant elements are located at the left front 
and rear positions.
•  One mid-position radiant element located between left 
front and rear element. Connects with front element to 
form Bridge element.
•  One 6 inch radiant element located at the center rear 
position.
•  One 6 inch induction element located at the right rear 
position.
•  One 10 inch induction element located at the right front 
position.
