How to Set
Indicator Lights (on radiant glass models only)
A HOT SURFACE or HOT COOKTOP (depending on 
model) indicator light will glow when any radiant 
element is hot and will remain on (even after the 
unit is turned off) until the surface is cooled to 
approximately 150°F. 
A SURFACE UNIT on or BURNER ON (depending 
on model) indicator light will glow when any 
surface unit is on.
NOTE: The SURFACE UNIT or BURNER ON 
indicator light may glow between the surface 
control settings of Lo and Off, but there is no 
power to the surface units.
Push the knob in and turn in either direction 
to the setting you want.
At both Off and Hi the control clicks into 
position. You may hear slight clicking sounds 
during cooking, indicating the control is 
keeping the power level you set.
Dual Surface Unit and Control Knob 
(on some models)
The front surface units have 2 cooking sizes 
(6” and 9”) to select from so you can match 
the size of the unit to the size of the cookware 
you are using.
To use the small surface unit, turn the 
control knob counterclockwise to the SMALL 
BURNER settings.
To use the large surface unit, turn the control 
knob clockwise to the LARGE BURNER 
settings.

Using the Warming Zone
(on some models)
FOOD POISON HAZARD: Bacteria may grow in 
food at temperatures below 140°F.
 Always start with hot food. Do not use warm 
setting to heat cold food.
 Do not use warm setting for more than 2 
hours.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in 
foodborne illness.
The WARMING ZONE, located in the back center 
of the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food 
at serving temperature. Always start with hot 
food. Do not use to heat cold food. Placing 
uncooked or cold food on the WARMING ZONE 
could result in foodborne illness.
Push and turn the control knob to any desired 
setting. 
For best results, all foods on the WARMING 
ZONE should be covered with a lid or aluminum 
foil. When warming pastries or breads, the 
cover should be vented to allow moisture to 
escape.
Use the lowest setting for breads and pastries. 
Use a medium setting for vegetables, sauces, 
stews, cream soups, butter and chocolate. Use 
the highest setting for soups (liquid) and hot 
beverages. These initial suggested settings are 
for reference only. The temperature, type and 
amount of food, type of pan, and the time held 
will affect the quality of the food.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when 
removing food from the WARMING ZONE, 
since cookware and plates will be hot. 
NOTE: The surface warmer will not glow red like 
the cooking elements.
On some models.
