Use medium- or heavy-weight cookware.

Aluminum cookware conducts heat faster

than other metals. Cast-iron and coated

cast-iron cookware are slow to absorb

heat, but generally cook evenly at low to

medium heat settings. Steel pans may

cook unevenly if not combined with 

other metals.

For best cooking results, pans should be 

flat on the bottom. Match the size of the

saucepan to the size of the surface unit. 

The pan should not extend over the edge 

of the surface unit more than 1 inch.

Not over 1 inch.

(electric coil models only)

We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed
wok. They are available at your local retail store.

Do not use woks that have support 

rings. Use of these types of woks, with 

or without the ring in place, can be

dangerous. 

Placing the ring over the surface unit will

cause a build-up of heat that will damage

the porcelain cooktop. Do not try to use

such woks without the ring. You could be

seriously burned if the wok tipped over.

Use only flat-bottomed woks.

(glass cooktops only)

A HOT SURFACE indicator light will glow

when any radiant element is turned on, 

and will remain on until the surface is 

cool enough to touch. 

■

It comes on when the unit is hot to the touch.

■

It stays on even after the unit is turned off.

■

It glows brightly until the unit is safe to touch.

Do not overfill cookware with fat that may

spill over when adding food. Frosty foods

bubble vigorously. 

Watch food frying at high temperatures.

Keep range and hood clean from grease.
