Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended directions for use of kitchen cleaners and aerosols.
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Cookware Material Types Using Proper Cookware The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are: The size and type of cookware used will influence the radiant element power level setting needed for best cooking results. Be sure to follow the recommendations for using proper cookware as illustrated in Figure 1 and Figure 2.
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop 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.
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Hot Surface Indicator Light (some models) Home Canning The hot surface indicator light located on the cooktop will glow when any surface cooking area heats up and will remain on until the glass cooktop has cooled to a moderate level (See Figure 4). CAUTION Canning can generate large amounts of steam. Use extreme caution to prevent burns. Always raise the lid to vent steam away from you.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Surface Cooking Settings The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and type of food being cooked will influence the surface element power level setting needed for best cooking results. Use Table 1 to determine the correct setting for the type of food you are preparing. IMPORTANT Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Single Radiant Surface Elements (some models) The cooktop has two or three single radiant surface elements: the left rear position, the right rear position. The left rear element may also be used with the Bridge element. CAUTION 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. To Operate the Single Radiant Surface Elements: 1.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Dual Surface Radiant Element (some models) To Operate the Dual Surface Element: The cooktop is equipped with 1 or 2 dual radiant surface elements. Symbols around the knob are used to indicate which element of the dual radiant element will heat. The symbol with the center circle blackened indicates that only the inner coil will heat (See Figure 6). The symbol with both elements blackened indicates that both inner and outer elements will heat (See Figure 6).
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS NOTE Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle on and off, even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic smooth top. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat. For efficient cooking, turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.
SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Keep Warm Zone (some models) The purpose of the keep warm zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Use the keep warm feature to keep cooked foods hot such as: vegetables, gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner plates. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food on the keep warm zone. All food placed on the keep warm zone should be covered with a lid to maintain quality.
