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. Be sure to match the pan size with the 

diameter of the element outline on the cooktop and only 

flat-bottomed 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.

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.

For best baking results allow 2-4” (5-10 cm) around  the 

cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and 

cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or 

back of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able to circulate 

around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat 

to reach around the cookware (See Fig. 1).

Your appliance is equipped with two different types of 

radiant surface control indicator lights that will glow on the 

backguard — the Element On indicator light and the Hot 

Surface indicator lights (See Fig. 2).

The Element ON indicator lights are located on the 

control panel above each radiant element control knob 

and will glow when a surface element is turned ON. A 

quick glance at this indicator light after cooking is an easy 

check to be sure ALL surface controls are turned OFF. The 

Hot Surface indicator light located on the control panel 

will glow when any surface cooking area heats up and 

will remain on until the glass cooktop has cooled to a 

MODERATE level.

•  Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the 

surface element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI 

setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic 

smoothtop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and will 

occur more often if the cookware  is too small for the 

radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.

•  Be sure to read the detailed instructions for ceramic 

glass cooktop cleaning in the Care & Cleaning and 

Before You Call checklist sections of this Use & Care 

Manual.

For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, 

place cookware on rack positions 3 & 5. For best results 

when using a single oven flat rack, place cookware on rack 

positions 3 or 4.
