Operating Triple Radiant 
Surface Elements
Figure 4 - Triple Surface Element Control Knob
1.  Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant 
surface element.
2.  Push in and turn the surface control knob 
clockwise to begin heating all, the inner, middle 
and outer portions of the element (Marked 
triple - see fi gure 1). If the two inner heating 
portions are needed turn the knob at position 
marked dual (Marked dual - see fi gure 2). 
If only inner heating portion is needed for 
smaller cookware, push in and turn the knob 
counterclockwise (Marked inner - see fi gure 3).
 
Note: You may switch from the single, double 
or triple settings at any time during cooking. 
Please note that all three portions will adjust to 
the same power level.
3.  When cooking has completed, turn the surface 
control knob to OFF before removing the 
cookware.
 
IMPORTANT
• For 
effi cient cooking, turn off the element 
several minutes before cooking is complete. 
This will allow residual heat to complete the 
cooking process.
•  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. Each surface element 
provides a constant amount of heat at each 
setting. Refer to chart above for suggested 
power level settings.
•  Start most cooking operations on a higher 
setting and then turn to a lower setting to fi nish 
cooking.
•  Radiant elements have a limiter that allows 
the radiant heating element to cycle on and 
off, even at the HI setting. This helps prevent 
damage to the ceramic smooth top. Cycling 
at the HI setting is normal and will occur more 
often if cookware is too small for the radiant 
element or if the cookware bottom is not fl at.
•  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.
