Dual Surface Radiant Element
The cooktop is equipped with 1 or 2 dual radiant surface
elements located at the left front (Figures 1& 2) and
the right front (Figure 2) or the right rear (Figure 3)
position. Symbols around the knob are used to indicate
which coil of the dual radiant element will heat. The
symbol indicates that only the inner coil will heat (Figure
4). The symbol indicates that both inner and outer
coils will heat (Figure 5). You may switch from either coil
setting at any time during cooking.
To Operate the Dual Surface Element
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the control knob to the inner coil
symbol for smaller cookware (Figure 4) or to inner
and outer coil symbol for larger cookware (Figure 5).
Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start
most cooking operations on a higher setting and then
turn to a lower setting to fi nish cooking. Each surface
element provides a constant amount of heat at each
setting. 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.
3. When cooking has completed, turn the surface
control knob to OFF before removing the
cookware.

NOTE
The surface "Element On" indicator lights will glow
when one or more elements are turned on. A quick
glance at these indicator lights when cooking is fi nished
is an easy check to be sure all surface elements are
turned off.
CAUTION
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper
shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch
fi re if placed too close to the surface elements.
CAUTION
Do not allow aluminum foil, or ANY material that
can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass
cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop they will
damage the ceramic cooktop.

See Recommended Setting for Surface Element table on
page 10.
Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled
after they have been turned OFF. HE (Hot Element)
message (Models B & C) or the hot surface indicator
light (Model A) will turn ON and will continue to glow
until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate
level. The glass surface may still be hot and burns
may occur if the glass surface is touched before the
indicator light has turned OFF. The message may remain
on even though the controls are turned OFF.
