Surface Cooking

Surface Controls

Use to turn on the surface elements. An infinite choice of heat settings is available from LOW to HIGH. The knobs can be set on or between any of the settings.

Setting the Controls

1.Place pan on surface element.

2.Push in and turn the knob in either direction to the desired heat setting.

The backguard is marked to identify which element the knob controls. For example, indicates right front

element.

3.There is an indicator light located on the control panel. When any of the surface control knobs are turned on, the light will turn on. The light will turn off when the surface elements are turned off.

4.After cooking, turn knob to OFF. Re- move pan.

Suggested Heat Settings

The size, type of cookware and cooking operation will affect the heat setting. For information on cookware and other fac- tors affecting heat settings, refer to “Cook- ing Made Simple” booklet.

High: Use to bring liquid to a boil. Al- ways reduce setting to a lower heat when liquids begin to boil or foods begin to cook.

Medium: Use to maintain slow boil for large

amounts of liq- uids and for most frying op- erations.

Low: Use to keep foods warm and melt chocolate and butter.

CAUTION:

Before Cooking

Always place a pan on the surface unit before you turn it on. To pre- vent damage to range, never oper- ate surface unit without a pan in place.

NEVER use the cooktop as a stor- age area for food or cookware.

During Cooking

Know which knob controls which surface unit. Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.

Begin cooking on a higher heat setting then reduce to a lower set- ting to complete cooking. Never use a high setting for extended cooking.

NEVER allow a pan to boil dry. This could damage the pan and the appliance.

NEVER touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some parts of the cooktop, especially around the sur- face units, to become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders to protect hands.

After Cooking

Make sure surface unit is turned off.

Clean up messy spills as soon as possible.

Other Tips

If cabinet storage is provided di- rectly above cooking surface, limit it to items that are infrequently used and that can be subjected to heat.

Temperatures may be unsafe for items such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.

NEVER leave any items, especially plastic items, on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items, melt or soften plastics, or increase pressure in closed containers causing them to burst.

NEVER allow aluminum foil, meat probes or any other metal object, other than a pan on a surface element, to contact heating ele- ments.
