FOOD NOT HEATING EVENLY

•Improper cookware. Select flat-bottomed cookware of a proper size to fit element.

•Incorrect control setting. Raise or lower setting until proper amount of heat is obtained.

POOR COOKING RESULTS

•Many factors affect cooking results. Adjust the recipe's recommended power levels or cooking times.

•Cookware is too lightweight or warped. Use heavier quality cookware so foods being prepared may cook more evenly.

SCRATCHES OR ABRASIONS ON CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOP SURFACE

•Coarse particles (such as salt or sand) are between cooktop and utensil. Be sure cooktop surface and bottom of utensils are clean before use. Small scratches do not affect cooking and will become less visible with use.

•Cleaning materials not recommended for glass ceramic cooktop have been used. See Ceramic-Glass Cooktop section in this Owner's Guide.

•Cookware with rough bottom has been used. Use flat-bottomed, smooth utensils. See Selecting Surface Cooking Utensils in this Owner's Guide.

METAL MARKS ON CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOP SURFACE
