About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
The ceramic cooktop has 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 Figure 1).
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the
cookware. Only flat-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.
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 efficient cooking, turn off the
element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will
allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.
Locations of the Radiant Surface Elements and
Controls
Your range is equipped with radiant surface elements with
different wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and
in larger volumes increases as the element wattage increases.
The radiant surface elements are located on the cooktop as
follows:
Model  A (See Figures 1 and 2):
- A 6 inch radiant element at the right rear position;
- A dual 6 or 9 inch radiant element at the right front position;
- A Warmer Zone radiant element at the center rear position
(See page 12);
- Two 8 inch radiant elements located at both the left front and
rear positions.
- Between left front and rear elements is a Bridge radiant
element. The BRIDGE radiant element is controlled using the
same knob that controls the left front radiant element position.
(See pages 10 and 11 for more information about using
BRIDGE radiant element)
Model B (see  Figure 1):
- Two  6 inch radiant elements  at the right and left rear position;
- A dual 6 or 9 inch radiant element at the right front position;
- A Warmer Zone radiant element at the center rear position
(See page 12);
- A 8 inch radiant element located at the left front position.
Model C (see  Figure 1):
- Two  6 inch radiant elements one at the right rear position and
the other at the left front position;
- A dual 6 or 9 inch radiant element at the right front position;
- A 8 inch radiant element located at the left rear position.
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.
NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the
element to cycle on and off, even at the HI setting. This helps
to prevent damage to the ceramic smooth top. Cycling at the
HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware  is too small
for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat
(Refer to page 6 under Selecting Surface Cooking Utensils).
NOTE:  Due to the high intensity of heat generated by the
surface elements, the glass surface will turn green when
the element will be turned off. This phenomenon is normal
and the glass will come back to its original white color after
it has completely cooled down. (White glass cooktops only).
