Cooking on the glass ceramic cooktop is
almost the same as cooking on conventional
surface units. There are, however, a few
differences:
• The glass ceramic cooktop may take
slightly longer to heat up than a coil
surface unit. It will also take a little longer
to cool down.
• You will see the element cycling on
(glowing red) and off to maintain the
proper temperature setting you have
selected. You may even see some cycling
when the control knob is set at HI.
• The surface units on the right side of the
cooktop feature halogen elements. These
elements light up as soon as you turn them
on, and are brighter than conventional coil
elements.
• Sliding metal pans on the glass ceramic
cooktop surface could leave marks. (See
"How to keep your cooktop looking like
new" on page 12 for cleaning information.)
Burn and Fire Hazard
Be sure all control knobs are turned to
OFF and the Power On Light(s) is OFF
when you are not cooking.
Someone could be burned or a fire could
start if a surface unit is accidentally left
ON.
