Operating the Single Surface Elements (All models)

To Operate the Single Surface Elements

1.Place correctly sized cookware on the surface element.

2.Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting (Figure 1).

3.Turn the knob to adjust the setting if desired. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. Ceramic Glass Cooktop Only: A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the surface heating area.

4.When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to OFF before removing the cookware.

CAUTION

Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements.

CAUTION

Do not allow aluminum foil, or ANY material that can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop they will damage the ceramic cooktop.

NOTE

Ceramic Glass Cooktop only: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle on and off, even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic smooth top. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.

Figure 1 -Control knob shown is typical only.

NOTE

The “Hot Surface” indicator lights will glow when the element is turned on and will continue to glow after the control knob is turned to the "OFF" position. It will glow until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has turned OFF. The message may remain on even though the controls are turned OFF.

NOTE

See Recommended Setting for Surface Element table on page 6.
