IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAFETY PRECAUTIONS When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following: • Read all instructions before using your cooktop. • Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference. • Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. • Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop cooking; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • To minimize the possibility of burns, always be certain that the controls for all surface units are at the OFF position, that the cooktop is locked and that the entire glass surface is cool before attempting to clean the cooktop. • Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and canned food a safe distance away from your cooktop. They may become hot and could cause burns. • Never heat unopened food containers.

Touch Controls Digital Radiant Cooktop Introduction A cooling fan will start and run as soon as any surface unit is turned on. This is to insure safe and reliable operation of the cooktop. This fan constantly cools the critical components of the cooktop. Under certain extreme periods of usage, this fan may continue to run after you complete cooking and you turn the cooktop off. It will continue to cool the cooktop and the controls until an acceptable temperature is reached.

Cookware Tips Digital Radiant Cooktop Types of cookware The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance. Stainless Steel: recommended Especially good with a sandwich clad bottom. The sandwich bottom combines the benefits of stainless steel (appearance, durability and stability) with the advantages of aluminum or copper (heat conduction, even heat distribution). Aluminum: heavy weight recommended Good conductivity.
Cookware Tips Digital Radiant Cooktop For best results • Place only dry pans on the surface units. Do not place lids on the surface units, particularly wet lids. • Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of wok will not heat on glass surface units. • We recommend that you use only a flatbottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store. The bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as the surface unit to insure proper contact.
Home Canning Tips Digital Radiant Cooktop Observe the following points in canning Note: Flat-bottomed canners are required for glass cooktops. Pots that extend beyond 1 inch of the surface unit’s circle are not recommended for most surface cooking. However, when canning with water-bath or pressure canner, larger-diameter pots may be used. This is because boiling water temperatures (even under pressure) are not harmful to the cooktop surfaces surrounding the surface units.
Glass Cooktop Cleaning Digital Radiant Cooktop Normal daily use cleaning ONLY use the the recommended cleaning cream, Cerama Bryte®, on the glass cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective. To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop, follow these steps: 4. Use a paper towel or sponge to clean the entire cooktop surface. NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly. 1.
Metal marks and scratches 1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks are removable using the cleaning cream with a scrub sponge and/or razor scraper. WARNING: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness that would scratch the cooktop. 2. If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black discoloration on the cooktop.
