for the First Time
The top working surface of solid
disk elements have a protective
coating which must be hardened
before using the elements
for the
first time. To harden this coating,
the solid disk elements
should be
heated without a pan for a short
period of time (regular elements
at HI setting and Sensi-Temp
element at maximum
setting for
3 to 5 minutes).
There will be some smoke and
odor; this is normal° Heating of
the solid disk element will
change the stainless
steel trim
rings to a gold color.

General Information
About Solid Disk Elements
Using a solid disk element
is quite
similar to using an electric
coil,
with which you probably
are
familiar. With both types of surface
units you will enjoy the cleanliness
of electricity
and the benefits of
retained heat in the elements.
However, there are differences,
o Solid disk elements do NUF glow
red, even at HI setting..
* Solid disk elements reach
temperature
a little slower, and
hold heat longer than conventional
elements.
Solid disk elements have
very even heat distribution_
Since
solid disk elements hold heat
longer, you may wish to turn the
element off sooner, and take
advantage
of the residual heat.
The amount of residual
heat is
dependent
upon the quantity
and
type of food, the material
and
thickness
of the pan and the
setting used for' cooking,
• The ted dot in the center of the solid
disk element indicates built-in
tempeiature
limiters that
automatically
reduce the heat if a
pan boils dry, if the element
is
turned on without a pan or if the
pan is not making enough contact
with the surface of the element,
The red dots will wear off with use
without affecting the perfotxnance
of the elements.
o There is retained heat in the elemem
On boilovers, wait for element to
cool before cleaning
element area.
* Solid disk element
cooking takes
you a step closer to easier cleanup,
because the cooking surface is
sealed against spills and there are
no drip pans or burner box to clean,
* You must use proper fiat
bottomed
cookware, not cookware
that is warped, convex, or concave.
Improper
cookware
will cause
unsatisfactory
cooking results.

control is in any position
other
than OFF, it may be rotated
