Using the surface elements.
Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.
Never cook directly on the glass.
Always use cookware.
Always center the pan on the
surface element you are using.
Do not slide cookware across the
cooktop because it can scratch the
glass. The glass is scratch-resistant,
not scratchproof.
How to Set
Push the knob down and turn in either direction
to the setting you want. When the control is in
any position other than OFF, it may be rotated
without pushing it down.
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.
The controls for the radiant surface elements
can be set anywhere between LO and HI for
an unlimited number of heat settings. With the
infinite switch the element cycles on and off to
maintain your selected control setting.
The ELEMENT ON indicator light will glow
when any surface element is on.
About the radiant surface elements...
The radiant cooktop features heating elements
beneath a smooth glass surface.
NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new
cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused
by the heating of new parts and insulating
materials and will disappear in a short time.
NOTE: On models with light colored glass
cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones to
change color when hot or cooling down. This is
temporary and will disappear as glass cools to
room temperature.
The surface element will cycle on and off to
maintain your selected control setting.
It is safe to place hot cookware (from the oven
or surface) on the glass cooktop when the
surface is cool.
Even after the surface elements are turned
off, the glass cooktop retains enough heat
to continue cooking. To avoid overcooking,
remove pans from the surface elements when
the food is cooked. Avoid placing utensils that
could become hot or plastics that could melt
on the surface element until it has cooled
completely.
A HOT SURFACE indicator light will glow
when any radiant element is turned on and
will remain on until the surface is cooled to
approximately 150°F.
NOTE:
It comes on when the element is hot to the

touch.
It stays on even after the element is turned off.

It glows brightly until the element is cooled to

approximately 150°F.
Be sure you turn the control knob to OFF

when you finish cooking.
Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable

using the cleaning cream or full strength
white vinegar.
Use of window cleaner may leave an

iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning
cream will remove this discoloration.
 Don't store heavy items above the cooktop. If
they drop onto the cooktop, they can cause
damage.
 Do not use the surface as a cutting board.
