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. Make sure the diameter of the pan matches the diameter of the element outline on the cooktop (See Figure

1).

Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the

cookware. Only fiat-bottom 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 heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle. For ef_clenf cooking, turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.
