Single radiant surface elements
To operate the single radiant element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on single radiant surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either
direction (Fig. 2) to the desired setting (Refer to the
Suggested radiant surface element settings
table Fig. 1). Start most cooking operations on a
higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish
cooking. The surface control knobs do not have to be
set exactly on a particular spot. Use the graphics
provided as a guide and adjust the control knob as
needed (See Fig. 2). 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 is complete, turn the radiant surface
element OFF before removing the cookware.
The suggested settings found in Fig.1  below are based
when cooking with medium-weight aluminum pans with
lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.

NOTES

CAUTION
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
• The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and
type of food being cooked will influence the setting
needed for best cooking results.
• The on indicator light will glow when one or more
elements are turned ON. A quick glance at this indicator
light when finished cooking is an easy check to be sure
all control knobs are turned OFF. The hot surface
indicator light will continue to glow AFTER the control
knob is turned to the OFF position and will remain on
until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.
IMPORTANT
• Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled
after they have been turned off. The glass surface
may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass
surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
• Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt
and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These
items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or
wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to
the surface elements.

• Do not place empty aluminum, glass or porcelain-
enamel coated cookware on a hot ceramic cooktop!
The melting point of some cookware may be reached if
left heating on the cooktop when empty. The cookware
can bond to the ceramic cooktop. If the cookware melts
it will damage the cooktop! Be sure to follow all the
manufacturer’s suggestions when using any type of
cookware on the ceramic cooktop.
• 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 can
damage the ceramic cooktop.
