adjusted at any time while the element is ON.

Each surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. 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. Fig. 4

Note: The Hot Surface indicator light will remain ON if the cooktop is still hot and will

remain ON until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.

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 aluminum foil or plastic items such as 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.
