BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Air circulation in the oven

For best baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able to circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to reach around the food.

Baking layer cakes with 1 or 2 oven racks

For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 2 & 5 (See Fig. 1). For best results when using a single oven flat rack, place cookware on rack positions 2, 3 or 4 (See Fig. 2).

About the ceramic glass cooktop

The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of the glass. The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath. Be sure to match the pan size with the diameter of the element outline on the cooktop and only flat-bottomed cookware should be used.

The type and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use and their settings are all factors that will affect the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements may become hot enough to cause burns.

About the radiant surface elements

The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting the element will cycle ON and OFF. The heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle.

For efficient cooking, turn OFF the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.

The single radiant elements will have one round outline pattern shown (See Figs. 3 & 4). The keep warm zone is designed to keep food warm only.

The dual radiant element allows the user to set the smaller inner portion as a single element or both inner and outer portions may be set to heat together (See Figs. 3 & 4). The triple (some models) radiant element works like the dual with an additional size setting that permits heating small, medium and large cookware from the same element position (See Fig. 3)

Quick boil feature (some models)

Your appliance may be equipped with one or two elements on the ceramic cooktop marked quick boil.

These radiant elements are best used when bringing larger quantities of liquid to temperature and when preparing larger quantities of food.

NOTE

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 smoothtop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and will occur more often if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.
