To obtain the best cooking results possible, you must operate your range properly. This section gives you important information for efficient and safe use of your range.

Using the surface units

Control knob8 must be pushed in before turning them to a setting. They can be set anywhere between HI and OFF.

Surface unit markers

The solid dot in the surface unit marker shows which surface unit is turned on by that knob.

Surface unit indicator lights

One of the Surface Unit Indicator Lights on the control panel will glow when a surface unit is on.

Hot surface indicator lights

The Hot Surface Indicator Lights on the cooktop surface will glow when the surface units get hot. The Indicator Lights will continue to glow as long as the surface units are too hot to touch, even after they are turned off.

Burn and Fire Hazard

Be sure all control knobs are turned to OFF and all indicator lights are OFF when you are not cooking.

Someone could be burned or a fire could start if a surface unit is accidentally left ON.

NOTE: The surface elements may smoke slightly and emit a burning odor during the first few hours of use. This is normal. It is caused by the insulation material of the new ceramic cooktop elements and will not occur again.
