To obtain the best cooking results possible, you must operate your range properly. This section gives
you important information for efficient and safe use of your range.
Using the surface units
Push in control knobs before turning them to a
setting. You can set them anywhere between HI
and OFF.
Surface unit markers
The solid dot in the surface unit marker shows
which surface unit is turned on by that knob.
Surface heating indicator light
The SURFACE HEATING Indicator Light on the
control panel will glow when a surface unit is
turned on.
Hot surface indicator lights
The Hot Surface Indicator Lights on the cooktop
surface will glow when the surface units get hot.
The Indicator Lights will continue to glow as long
as the surface units are too hot to touch, even
after they are turned off.
Burn and Fire Hazard
Be sure all control knobs are turned to OFF
and all indicator lights are OFF when you
are not cooking.
Someone could be burned or a fire could
start if a surface unit is accidentally left ON.
NOTE: The surface elements may smoke slightly
and emit a burning odor during the first few hours
of use. This is normal. It is caused by the
insulation material of the new ceramic cooktop
elements and will not occur again.
