Cooktop On Indicator Lights

Each set of control knobs, left and right of the oven control, have a Cooktop On indicator light. When either control on a side is on, the light will glow.

Hot Surface Indicator Light (on some models)

The hot surface indicator light, located on the cooking surface, will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area(s) is turned off.

Coil ElementsandBurner Bowls

(onsomemodels)

Coil elements should be level for optimal cooking results. Burner bowls, when clean, reflect heat back to the cookware. They also help catch spills.

Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) over the coil element. If cookware is uneven or too large, it can produce excess heat, causing the burner bowl to change color. For more information, see the “General Cleaning” section.

NOTE: Before removing or replacing coil elements and burner bowls, make sure they are cool and the control knobs are in the Off position.
