The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of the glass. The

design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath. Make sure

the diameter of the pan matches the diameter of the element outline on the cooktop. Heat is

transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only flat-bottom cookware

should be used. The type and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use and the

settings, are all factors that will affect the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the

surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements may become hot enough to cause

burns.

The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the 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.

Your range is equipped with radiant surface burners with different wattage ratings. The ability to

heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the element wattage increases.

NOTE

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 glass cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting

is normal and can also occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the

cookware bottom is not flat (Refer to page 18 for using correct cookware instructions with the

cooktop).

Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the General Care &

Cleaning section and Solutions to Common Problems section of this Use and Care Guide.
