OPERATION
READ SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE
The cooking surface and control areas of your Lite-Touch™ Q cooktop are identified by 
permanent patterns in the cooktop.  The appliance is easy to maintain and easy to clean.  
Keeping the cooktop in top performance can be achieved by following the simple guidelines for 
use and cleaning below:
COOKWARE
Chances are that your existing cookware will work just fine with your glass ceramic cooktop.  
Cooking on a glass ceramic cooktop does not require special pots or pans.  Since cookware 
plays an important role in cooking efficiency and convenience, keep in mind the following 
information when selecting your cookware.
The cookware should have a flat bottom.  Although glass and other types of cookware can be 
used, metal cookware with thick, smooth, flat bottoms will generally conduct the heat well.  
Aluminum and stainless steel cookware usually works best.  Avoid cookware with shaped and 
rounded bottoms as well as utensils that warp when heated.
Use cookware of the correct diameter only.  The base of the pot or pan should be about as wide 
as the cooking zone on which it is used - not much wider or much narrower.  By using utensils 
with the correct diameter, you should achieve maximum heating efficiency with the shortest pos-
sible boiling times.
Be certain that both the cooktop panel and the bottom of your pots and pans are clean and dry 
before use.  By doing so, you will help prevent scratches and stains.
LOCK MODE
1.  In lock mode the heat setting cannot be raised, but can be lowered and the off function for 
both elements and master power will still function for safety reasons.  A light next to the “key” 
graphic will indicate that the cooktop is locked and will remain illuminated while lock is activated.  
Refer to figure D on Page 10.
2.  To lock the cooktop, place finger on the circular area next to the key graphic and hold for 3 
seconds.  An audible beep will be heard and the light next to the key graphic will illuminate.  The 
cooktop is now locked.
3.  To unlock the cooktop, touch the circular area next to the key graphic and hold for 3
seconds.  An audible beep will be heard and the light next to the key graphic will go out.  The 
cooktop is now unlocked and all functions operate.
4.  Lock mode is independent of all other functions and can be activated at any time, even if the 
cooktop is in standby mode.  Standby mode is when power is available to the cooktop but the 
master power button is not activated.
