For best results

Place only dry pans on the surface units. Do not place lids on the surface units, particularly wet lids.

Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of wok will not heat on the glass surface units.

We recommend that you use only a flat- bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store. The bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as the surface unit to insure proper contact.

Some special cooking procedures require specific cookware such as pressure cookers, deep fat fryers, etc. All cookware must have flat bottoms and be the correct size.

Do not place wet pans on the glass surface units.

Do not use woks with support rings on the glass surface units.

Component Cooktop System specifications

The GE Monogram Component Cooktop System is a high-end kitchen appliance designed for culinary enthusiasts who appreciate both form and function. A cornerstone of the Monogram line, this cooktop system represents a blend of advanced technology, flexibility, and elegant design.

One of the most striking features of the GE Monogram Component Cooktop is its modular design. Home chefs can customize their cooking experience based on personal preferences and cooking styles. The cooktop allows for the integration of various cooking elements such as gas burners, induction cooktops, grill plates, and griddles, making it versatile for various cuisines. This modularity enables the seamless combination of different cooking surfaces tailored to the user’s needs.

The gas burners feature high BTU outputs that provide powerful heat when needed, ensuring quick boiling and effective searing. Flame-sensing technology enhances safety by automatically shutting off the gas supply if a flame goes out, providing peace of mind while cooking. Additionally, cast iron grates contribute to excellent heat retention and stability, allowing for seamless transition between cookware types.

For those who prefer electric cooking, the induction components are equally impressive. Using electromagnetic energy, induction cooking delivers rapid heat with precise temperature control, allowing for delicate tasks like simmering sauces or high-heat cooking for stir-fries. The smooth ceramic surface is easy to clean, and the cooktop remains cool to the touch, reducing the risk of burns.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the GE Monogram Component Cooktop System is its sleek design. The stainless steel finish exudes a modern aesthetic, while the backlit controls and seamless integration into countertops provide an upscale look that enhances any kitchen decor. Furthermore, user-friendly touch controls allow for easy adjustments, making the cooking process more efficient.

Additional features include temperature probes, which offer precise cooking results, and various safety features such as automatic shut-off and system lock, ensuring peace of mind during cooking. Furthermore, the cooktop is designed for easy maintenance, with removable components and surfaces that resist staining.

In summary, the GE Monogram Component Cooktop System is a sophisticated and versatile cooking solution that caters to the needs of discerning chefs.
