General Cooktop Information

Use the table below to determine the correct setting for the kind of food you are preparing. The Simmer settings are

used to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods warm such as stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal

for delicate foods and melting chocolate or butter.

Note: The size and type of cookware used will inﬂuence the setting needed for best cooking results.

Model A - Figure 1

ToOperatetheSingleRadiantSurfaceElements

1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface element.

2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting

(Figure 3). Turn the knob to adjust the setting if desired. Start most cooking operations

on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to ﬁnish cooking. 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.

3. Whencookinghascompleted,turnthesurfacecontrolknobtoOFFbefore

removingthecookware. Note: The Hot Surface Indicator light (Figure 4) will come

on when the control knob is turned on and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop

has cooled down to a moderate level. The light may remain on even though the

controls are turned OFF.

Note: See above Table for recommended control settings.

Model B - Figure 2

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been

turned off. A hot surface indicator light will come on and will continue to glow until the glass

cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. Theglasssurfacemaystillbehot and burns

may occur if the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has turned off.

Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon

holdersorplasticwrappingsoncooktop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.
