Radiant
surface
elements
may appear
to
have cooled
after
they have been turned
off. The glass
surface may still be hot and burns may occur
if the glass
surface
is touched
before it has cooled
sufficiently.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and
pepper shakers, spoon holders
or pHasfic wrappings
on fop
of the range when if is in use. These items could
melt or
ignite. Potholders,
towels or wooden
spoons could catch
fire if placed
too close to the surface
elements.
Do not allow aluminum
foil, empty glass/
porcelain
cookware
or any material
that can melt to make
contact
with the ceramic
cooktop.
If these items melt on the
cooktop
they may damage
the ceramic
cooktop.
Important
notes:
* For efficient
cooking,
turn off: the element
several minutes
before cooking
is complete.
This will allow
residual heat to
complete
the cooking
process.
The surface control
knobs do not have to be set exactly
on a particular
spot. Use the graphics
provided
as a guide
and adjust the control
knob as needed.
Each surface
element
provides
a constant
amount of heat at each
setting. Refer to chart above for suggested
power level
settings.
® Start
most
cooking
operations
on a higher
setting
and
then
turn
to a lower
setting
to finish
cooking.
Radiant
elements
have
a limiter
that
allows
the radiant
heating
element
to cycle
on and
off:, even
at the
HI
setting.
This
helps
prevent
damage
to the ceramic
smooth
top.
Cycling
at the
HI
setting
is normal
and
will
occur
more
often
if cookware
is too small
for the radiant
element
or if the cookware
bottom
is not fiat.
* A glowing
red surface heating
area extending
beyond
the
bottom
edge of the cool<ware indicates the cookware
is
too small for the surface
heating
area.

the Triple Surface Elements:
