SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
NOTE
See Recommended Setting for Surface Element table on 
page 10.
Single radiant surface elements
 (all models)
The cooktop has 2 or 3 SINGLE radiant surface elements: 
the left rear position (Figures 1, 2 & 3), the right rear 
position (Figures 1 and 2), and the right front position 
(Figures 1 and 3). The left rear element may also be used 
with the Bridge element (Model C only - Figure 3).
To Operate the Single Radiant Surface Elements
1.  Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface 
element.
2.  Push in and turn the surface control knob in either 
direction to the desired setting (Figure 4). Start most 
cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn 
to a lower setting to fi nish cooking. Each surface 
element provides a constant amount of heat at each 
setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending 
beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates 
the cookware is too small for the surface heating 
area.
3.  When cooking has completed, turn the surface 
control knob to OFF before removing the cookware.

CAUTION
Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled 
after they have been turned OFF. HE (Hot Element) 
message (Models B & C) or the hot surface indicator 
light (Model A) will turn ON and will continue to glow 
until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate 
level. The glass surface may still be hot and burns 
may occur if the glass surface is touched before the 
indicator light has turned OFF. The message may 
remain on even though the controls are turned OFF.
CAUTION
Do not place plastic items such as salt and 
pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic 
wrappings on cooktop when it is in use. These 
items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or 
wooden spoons could catch fi re if placed too close to 
the surface elements.
CAUTION
Do not allow aluminum foil, or ANY material that 
can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass 
cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop they will 
damage the ceramic cooktop.
NOTE
The surface “Element On” indicator lights will glow 
when one or more elements are turned on. A quick 
glance at these indicator lights when cooking is fi nished 
is an easy check to be sure all surface elements are 
turned off.
