SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Triple Surface Radiant Element (some models)
Some cooktops are equipped with a triple radiant surface 
element. Symbols around the knob indicate which element 
will heat. The symbol with the center circle blackened 
indicates that only the inner coil will heat. The symbol with 
two elements blackened indicates that both elements will 
heat. The symbol with three elements blackened indicates 
that all three elements will heat (See 
.) You may 
switch from either setting at any time during cooking.
To Operate the Triple Surface Element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the triple surface 
element.
2. Push in and turn the control knob to the inner element 
symbol for smaller cookware or to inner and outer 
element symbol for larger cookware (See 
). 
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 finish 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. To activate and use the triple element, push in and turn 
the knob to the left for the outer element symbol for 
larger cookware. Push the Triple Zone switch to the ON 
position (See 
). 
4. When cooking has completed, push the Triple Zone 
switch to the OFF position and turn the surface control 
knob to OFF before removing the cookware.

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled 
after they have been turned off. HE (Hot Element) 
message or 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 message 
may remain on even though the controls are turned off.
Do not place plastic items such as 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 allow aluminum foil, empty glass/porcelain 
cookware or any material that can melt to make contact 
with the ceramic cooktop. If these items melt on the 
cooktop they may damage the ceramic cooktop.

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 finished is an easy 
check to be sure all surface elements are turned off.
