HOT SURFACE INDICATOR LIGHT
(some models)
Some models have an indicator light located on the ceramic glass cooktop that glows
as soon as the glass begins to warm up. When the heating unit is turned off, it will
continue to glow as long as the glass remains warm enough to cause burns. Other
models have 4 hot surface indicators (one per element) arranged in a cluster. Their
location is as shown in the illustration above.
