How the cooktop works

About the ceramic glass cooktop

The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements mounted below the surface of the glass. Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware.

The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath. Your range is equipped with radiant surface burners with different wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the element wattage increases.

The type and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use and the settings, are all factors that will affect the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements may become hot enough to cause burns.

About the radiant surface elements

The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle on and off. The heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat even during the off cycle. For efficient cooking, turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.

NOTES

Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at higher settings is normal. Cycling may also occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is warped (refer to Using Proper Cookware on page 7).

Read the detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in both the Care and Cleaning and Before You Call sections of this Use and Care Manual.

CAUTION

Unlike the surface elements, the keep warm zone will not glow red when it is hot.

Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the keep warm zone as cookware and plates will be hot.

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled.

Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements.
