Smoothtop Module

Smoke Control Grill

!WARNING

To avoid risk of serious personal injury, property damage, or fire, do not leave surface elements unattended while in operation. Grease and spillovers can ignite causing a fire.

To avoid risk of serious personal injury never cook on a broken smoothtop module. Spillovers or cleaners can penetrate surface of module and create a risk of electrical shock. If smoothtop module breaks, discontinue use and notify an authorized servicer immediately.

Use heavy-gauge metal cookware not including cast iron.

Bottom of cookware must be flat. Cookware that is warped or slightly curved on the bottom heats slowly and may not boil water. Cookware with an aluminum disk bottom makes excellent contact with cooking surface. See “Utensils” section for more information.

Do not use glass, ceramic, or enamel-porcelain cookware. Small imperfections on bottom of such cookware can scratch smoothtop module surface.

Module surface is not “scratch proof”. Surface is highly scratch and impact resistant. With recommended cooking utensils and proper care, it will continue looking good through years of use.

Do not use a pan that overhangs burner by more than 1 inch.

1.Push in and turn surface element control to desired setting.

Cooktop has 1 indicator light for all control knobs. When an element is on, indicator light glows red.

2.When finished cooking, turn control to OFF.

!WARNING

To avoid risk of serious personal injury, property damage, or fire, do not leave surface elements unattended while in operation. Grease and spillovers can ignite causing a fire.

To avoid risk of property damage, do not use metal cooking utensils on the grill.

1.Before using grille for first time wash it with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Lightly wipe top of grille surface with cooking oil to prevent food from sticking (do not use shortening or butter). Let cooking oil remain on grille surface.

2.Trim excess fat from around meats to prevent smoking and flare-ups.

3.Push in and turn right or left front control knob (depending on where grille is located) to select a temperature.

If you use right or left rear control knob, indicator lights, but element does not heat, and fan does not operate.

Fan turns on at low speed.

4.Preheat grille for approximately 10 minutes to improve charbroiled flavor.

Do not heat grille for extended periods on HI setting without food. Extreme temperatures may separate non-stick finish from metal.

Do not precook food before grilling unless it is immediately placed on grille.

5.Place food on grille.

Check that meats are done before removing them from grille. Meats often brown quickly on outside, but are not done in middle.

If meat begins to cook too quickly on outside, reduce grille heat.

6.When finished cooking, turn control to OFF.

7.Clean grille pan and smoke control grille.

Always use nylon, hard rubber, or wooden kitchen tools on conventional no-stick finish.
