FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q
Is it possible for my cooktop to shatter?
US
A
This is highly unlikely. The glass is very robust and strong and goes through a vigorous testing process before it is accepted.
Q
Does the glass scratch easily?
A
No, the glass is very tough, however, exercise care when using the ceramic surface.
Q
What do the lights mean?
A
These depict the status of the elements: Red - the element is turned on (CE901M - white). Amber - the element is turned off but the
surface is still hot (CE901M - red).
Q
Will the graphics come off?
A
No, the glass graphics are fused onto the glass surface. However they may be obscured by baked on food. This is easily removed with the
scraper supplied with the product. The graphics on the stainless steel are etched by laser, but they can be damaged by harsh abrasives.
Q
Will the surface overheat?
A
Each element is fitted with temperature limiters that prevent overheating.
Q
What is the best way to clean my cooktop?
A
See the 'Care & Cleaning' section of the User Guide book.
Q
Why do the elements appear to turn off while cooking/heating?
A
In order to maintain your desired temperature the element may pulse on and off.
Q
Do I need special pans?
A
No, however flat bottom pans are recommended as they are more energy efficient and stable. See the 'Using Your Cooktop' section of the
User Guide book for further information.
Q
How can I achieve a low setting for delicate cooking and simmering?
A
The lowest power element is the inner part of the dual element and you may want to experiment by turning the control below the marked
low setting. The CE901M has a Supersimmer element in the front right position that is ideal for such tasks. Refer to the User Guide for
information on using Supersimmer.
Q
Can I fit my Fisher & Paykel oven or DishDrawer
A
Yes, with a standard bench height and recommended gap (see Preparing the Cutout for details).
