ELEMENTS

Ceran Element Cooktop

Cooking areas are identified by patterns in the Ceran surface. The elements consist of coil(s) contained in the element housing.

Power to the element (240 volts) is provided and controlled by an infinite switch. Each heating element is equipped with a temperature limiter, which prevents heat surges and ensures that the heating elements will not overheat. The element and temperature limiter is available as a complete unit or individual parts.

When a cooking area is turned ON, the coil element under the cook top will heat up and glow. The element will cycle on and off to maintain the heat setting. When the element cycles on, it is normal to see a red glow through the smooth top.

Note: It is normal for the element to cycle when set on the high setting.
