Light

 

 

Some models have an indicator light located on the ceramic glass cooktop that glows

 

as soon as the glass begins to warm up. When the heating unit is turned off, it will

 

continue to glow as long as the glass remains warm enough to cause burns. Other

 

models have 4 hot surface indicators (one per element) arranged in a cluster. Their

 

location is as shown in the illustration above.

 

 

SPECIAL CAUTION FOR ALUMINUM FOIL

AND ALUMINUM COOKING UTENSILS

1)Aluminum foil

Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any circumstances.

2)Aluminum utensils

The melting point of aluminum being much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used. If allowed to boil dry, not only will the utensil be ruined, but also permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusing or marking may affect the ceramic glass surface.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

1.AVOID using bleach and don’t use ammonia to clean the ceramic surface.

2.Do not put plastic items on warm cooking areas.

3.Never slide oven racks across cooktop surface. They may scratch or metalmark the cooktop.

4.If cooktop should break, do not use cooktop or attempt to clean it. Call your authorized service technician immediately.

5.Never use a trivet or metal stand between the cooking utensil and the ceramic cooktop. The ceramic surface may be scratched, metal marked or etched by such items.

6.Sugary spills can cause pitting of your cooktop surface. Therefore, you must begin cleaning the spills while the cooktop is still hot. Use caution when following the steps below.

a)Turn off all surface units and remove all pans immediately.

b)Wearing an oven mitt, use a razor blade scraper to scrape the hot spill out of the cooking zone to a cooler area on the cooktop.

c)Allow the cooktop to cool.
