This section explains how to operate the cooktop. See "Getting the Most Out of
Your Cooktop" on page 25 for guidelines to improve cooktop results.
Use the cooktop for surface cooking applications such as boiling, frying, simmer-
ing, steaming and sauteing.
CAUTION
•
Foods packaged in aluminum foil should not be placed directly on
the glass ceramic surface for cooking. Aluminum foil can melt and
cause permanent damage.
•
Plastic, paper and cloth can melt or burn when in contact with a
hot surface. Do not let these items come in contact with the hot
glass ceramic surface.
•
Do not allow pans to boil dry. This can permanently damage the
pan, the element and the cooktop glass.
To turn on a single element, push in on the control knob and turn in either direc-
tion to the desired heat setting.
To turn ON the small, inner element, push in on the control knob and turn it coun-
terclockwise. Set to desired heat level.
