Surface Cooking

Smoothtop Surface

Smoothtop Surface Notes:

•On Canadian models, the smoothtop does NOT operate during a clean cycle.

•Cooktop may emit light smoke and odor the first few times the cooktop is used. This is normal.

•Smoothtop cooktops retain heat for a period of time after the element is turned off. Turn the elements off a few minutes before food is completely cooked and use the retained heat to complete cooking. When the Hot Surface Indicator light turns off, the cooking area will be cool enough to touch. Because of the way they retain heat, the smoothtop elements will not respond to changes in settings as quickly as coil elements.

•In the event of a potential boilover, remove the pan from the cooking surface.

•Never attempt to lift the cooktop.

•The smoothtop surface may appear discolored when it is hot. This is normal and will disappear when the surface cools.

Cooking Areas

The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent circles on the smoothtop surface. For most efficient cooking, fit the pan size to the element size.

Pans should not extend more than 1/2 to 1-inch beyond the cooking area.

When a control is turned on, a glow can be seen through the smoothtop surface. The element will cycle on and off to maintain the preset heat setting, even on High.

For more information on cookware, refer to Cookware Recommendations on page 7 and “Cooking Made Simple” booklet included with your range.

*Flex•Choice Warm: This setting uses a very low heat setting to keep delicate foods or foods in a covered pan warm without cooking.

The Hot Surface indicator light is located on the control panel. The light will be illuminated when any cooking area is hot. It will remain on,

even after the control is turned off, until the area has cooled.

Warming Center (style may vary by model)

Use the Warming Center to keep hot cooked foods warm, such as vegetables, gravies and oven-safe dinner plates.

Setting the Control:

Touch the Surface Warming Center pad and then the Autoset pad. Press Autoset pad again to turn off.

Warming Center Notes:

•Never warm food for longer than one hour (eggs for 30 minutes), as food quality may deteriorate.

•Do not heat cold food on the Warming Center.

•Warming temperatures of the food will vary depending on type and amount of food. Always hold food at proper food temperatures. USDA recommends food temperatures between 140°-170°F.

•Use only cookware and dishes recommended as safe for oven and cooktop use.

•Always use oven mitts when removing food from the Warming Center as cookware and plates will be hot.

•All foods should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain food quality.

•When warming pastries and breads the cover should have an opening to allow moisture to escape.

•Do not use plastic wrap to cover foods. Plastic may melt on to the surface and be very difficult to clean.
