- IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR RADIANT COOKTOP
- Know which knob or key controls each surface heating area. Place cookware with food on the cooking area before turning it on. Turn the cooking area off before removing the cookware.
- Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface elements — To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the cookware should be ...
- Use proper pan size - This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. Select cookware with flat bottoms that match the surface unit size. Using the proper cookware on the cooking area will improve efficiency.
- Glazed cooking utensils— Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s recom¬mendati...
- Improper cookware may break due to sudden changes in temperature. Check the cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooktop use.
- Never leave surface elements unattended. Boil-overs may cause smoking and greasy spills that may ignite. A pan that has boiled dry could be damaged and may damage the cooktop.
- Do not use a searing grill meant for use with a broiler pan on the cooktop. The searing grill is not designed for use on the cooktop. Doing so may result in a fire.
- When you are flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn on the fan.
- IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR GLASS AND CERAMIC COOKTOPS
- Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

- Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to the side of the appliance when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
- Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching surfaces in this area when the oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items can melt or ignite.
- Placement of oven racks - Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot burner or element in oven. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposi...
- Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease could ignite.
- Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always cook in proper cookware and always use the oven racks.
- IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE
- - Before manually cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure all controls are turned off and the appliance is cool. Cleaning a hot appliance can cause burns.
- Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Do not allow grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire.
- Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended directions for use of kitchen cleaners and aerosols. Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.
- Clean venitlating hoods frequently - Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning vent hoods.

Setting Surface Controls
Dual radiant surface elements (some models)
Symbols on the backguard will help choose which portion of the
dual radiant element to set. You may switch the element setting
at any time during cooking.
To operate a dual radiant element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the surface element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob clockwise to begin
heating both the inner and outer elements. If only the inner
element is needed for smaller cookware, push in and turn
the knob counter-clockwise (see Figure 2).
3. When cooking is complete, turn the knob to OFF before
removing the cookware.
Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn
to a lower setting to finish cooking. The surface control knobs do
not have to be set exactly on a particular mark. Use the marks
as a guide and adjust the control knob as needed.
A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the
bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too
small for the surface heating area.
You may switch from either single or dual element setting at any
time during cooking. See “Suggested radiant surface element
settings” on page 15.
- Radiant surface elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched
before it has cooled sufficiently.
- Do not place flammable items such as plastic
salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if
placed too close to the surface elements.
Important note: Do not allow aluminum foil or ANY material
that can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop. If
these items melt on the cooktop, they will damage the ceramic
cooktop.
Important notes:
• The size and type of utensil used and the amount and type
of food being cooked will influence the setting needed for
best cooking results.
• The Element ON indicator lights will turn on when one or
more elements are turned ON. A quick glance at these
indicator lights when finished cooking is an easy check to
be sure all control knobs are turned OFF. The Hot Surface
indicator light will remain on AFTER the control knob is
turned to the “OFF” position and will stay on until the
heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.
