Dual Radiant Surface Elements
(Some models)
F_'_
Radiant surface
elements
may appear
to
have cooled after they have been turned off. The glass
surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass
surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and
pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on top
of the range 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.
Do not allow aluminum foil, empty glass/
porcelain
cookware
or any material
that can melt to make
contact
with the ceramic
cooktop.
If these items melt on the
cooktop
they may damage
the ceramic
cooktop.
Important
notes:
• For efficient
cooking,
turn off: the element
several minutes
before cooking
is complete.
This will allow
residual
heat to
complete
the cooking
process.
• The surface
control
knobs do not have to be set exactly
on a particular
spot. Use the graphics
provided
as a guide
and adjust the control
knob as needed.
Each surface
element
provides
a constant
amount of heat at each
setting. Refer to chart above for suggested
power level
settings.
• Start most cooking
operations
on a higher setting
and then
turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.
• Radiant
elements
have a limiter that allows the radiant
heating
element
to cycle on and off:, even at the HI
setting. This helps prevent damage
to the ceramic
smooth
top. Cycling
at the HI setting is normal
and will occur
more often if cookware
is too small for the radiant
element
or if the cookware
bottom
is not fiat.
• 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.
To Operate
the Dual Surface Elements:
1.
Place correctly
sized cookware
on the radiant
surface
element.
2.
Push in and turn the surface control
knob clockwise
to
begin
heating
both, the inner and outer portions
of the
element
(Marked
double
- see figure 1) If only the inner
heating
portion
is needed (marked
single - see figure
2) for smaller cookware,
push in and turn the knob
counterclockwise.
.
Note: You may switch from the single or double
settings
at any time during cooking.
When cooking
has completed,
turn the surface
control
knob to OFF before removing
the cookware.
