CAUTION

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled

after they have been turned OFF. The hot surface

indicator light 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 indicator light 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.

Dual Surface Radiant Element

The cooktop is equipped with a dual radiant surface

element located at the right front position (Figure 1).

Symbols around the knob are used to indicate which

coil of the dual radiant element will heat. The symbol

indicates that only the inner coil will heat (Figures 2 & 4).

The symbol indicates that both inner and outer coils

will heat (Figures 3 & 5). You may switch from either coil

setting at any time during cooking.
To Operate the Dual Surface Element

1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface

element.

2. Push in and turn the control knob to the inner coil

symbol for smaller cookware (Figures 2 & 4) or to inner

and outer coil symbol for larger cookware (Figures 3 &

5). Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. 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.
