About the radiant surface units...
The radiant cooktop features heating units
beneath a smooth glass surface.
NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a
new cooktop is used for the first time. It is
caused by the heating of new parts and
insulating materials and will disappear in a
short time.
The surface unit will cycle on and off to
maintain your selected control setting.
It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven
or surface on the glass surface when the surface
is cool.
Even after the surface units are turned off, the
glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue
cooking. To avoid over-cooking, remove pans
from the surface units when the food is cooked.
Avoid placing anything on the surface unit
until it has cooled completely.
Do not slide cookware across the cooktop
because it can scratch the glass --- the glass
is scratch resistant, not scratch proof.
Temperature Limiter
Every radiant surface unit has a
temperature limiter.
The temperature limiter protects the glass
cooktop from getting too hot.
Indicator Lights
(on radiant glass models only).
A Hot indicator light will glow when any
radiant elements is turned on, and will
remain on until the surface is cool enough
to touch.
A indicator light will glow when any

Don´t store heavy items above the
cooktop. If they drop onto the cooktop,
they can cause damage.

board.
