HALOGEN/RADIANT COMPONENT

General Information About Halogen/Radiant Surface Units

The halogen/radiant cooktop features heating units beneath a smooth glass ceramic surface. The surface units are shown by outlines on the glass.

Before you use the cooktop for the first time, clean it with Cook Top Cleaning Creme. This helps protect the top and makes clean-up easier.

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 disapp&.r in a short time.

When a surface unit is turned on, coils beneath the surface unit radiate heat through the glass to the cookware. The red glow of the coils will be visible through the glass. It will take the surface unit a few moments to heat up. The coil cycles on and off to maintain your selected control setting. Wkh poor cookware, you will see frequent cycling of the unit off and on. Good, flat cookware will minimize

the cycling.

Use only flat-bottomed cookware. Do not let pots boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktop. An overheated copper pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the glass.

Sliding aluminum cookware across the glass may leave metal marks. These metal marks will appear as

small scratches. They can be removed with Cook Top Cleaning Creme and a razor scraper.

It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven or surface on the glass ceramic surface when the surface is cool.

Avoid sliding pans on the glass cooktop. Pan edges that are even slightly rough or ~tit on the cooktop can cause scratches on the glass.

Even after the surface units are turned off, the glass ceramic cooktop retains enough heat to continue cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans from the surface units when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until it has cooled completely.

Differences Between Halogen and Radiant Units

Some cooktops have both radiant and halogen surface units. This is how they differ.

Halogen units are much brighter than the radiant units. Radiantunits have a dull red glow.

Halogen and radiant units cycle on and off frequently. This is normal. You will notice the cycling more on the halogen units because of their brightness.

. Halogen units have radiant coils in

the center that do not glow as brightly

0

as the outer halogen coils.
