About the radiant surface elements
The temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the radiant element will glow
red. To maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle on and off. The heating element retains
enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle. For efficient cooking,
turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to
complete the cooking process.
®
Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI
setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is
normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware
bottom is not flat.
