HOW DOES THIS COOKTOP COMPARE

WITH YOUR OLD ONE?

Your new cooktop has a halogen/radiant glass ceramic cooktop. If you are used to cooking with gas burners or electric surface units, you will notice some differences when you use the halogen/radiant cooktop.

The best types of cookware to use, plus heat-up and cool-down times, depend upon the type of burner or surface unit you have.

The following chart will help you to understand the differences between halogen/radiant cooktops and any other type of cooktop you may have used in the past.
