Ceramic Glass Cooktop (some models) (continued)

Types of heating units used

Depending on model, three types of heating units may be found under the ceramic glass cooktop:

-Regular (single coil) radiant elements of various diameters or shapes.

-Expandable type (double circuits) radiants elements of various diameters or shapes.

-Bridge expandable type (triple circuits) radiants elements of various diameters or shapes.

Regular Radiant Elements (some models)

The ceramic glass design shows the location of the heating surfaces.

Control knobs are used to set the heat power levels; knobs need first to be pressed in when at OFF position, then turned to the desired heat settings.

A glowing red surface unit extending beyond the bottom edge of the cooking utensil indicates the utensil is too small for the unit. The control knob does not have to be set exactly on a par- ticular mark. Use the marks as a guide and adjust the control knob as needed. The hot surface and surface indicator lights will glow.

Note: A built-in protector will automatically turn off the radiant and expandable radiant ele- ments if the ceramic-glass temperature exceeds the set limit.

Expandable Radiant Elements (some models)

This heating unit combines the characteristics of a small and a large regular radiant heating unit. Its principal advantage is to allow small and large utensils to be used on the same heating unit, therefore increasing the cooktop flexibility. Heat power levels are adjusted by a special control knob that has a dual set of graduations; for small utensils use the small graduations; the inner surface only will be heating. For larger utensils use the larger graduations; the whole surface will be heating. The hot surface and surface indicator lights will glow when the heating unit is turned ON.

Note: During any heat setting of the outer radiant element, the inner radiant element cycles on and off with the outer element.

Bridge Radiant Elements (some models)

Its principal advantage is to allow you to create larger cooking zone for larger pan such as roaster, griddle or some other specialty pans.

To use the bridge element, turn the control knob on the larger graduations side.

For full bridge element operation turn on the rear element also.

To use only the front element, turn the control knob on the small graduations side.

Indicator Lights

There are 2 different surface control lights that will glow on your range—surface indicator lights and hot surface indicator lights.

The surface indicator lights, located on the control panel, glow when any surface unit is turned on. A quick glance at the lights after cooking is an easy check to be sure all surface controls are turned off.

The hot surface indicator lights, located under the glass cooktop, will come on as the surface cooking area heats up and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. The lights may remain on even though the controls are turned to OFF.
