Avoid Service Checklist (continued)

OCCURRENCE

POSSIBLE CAUSE / SOLUTION

Surface element too hot or not hot enough. (continued)

Use only flat bottom, evenly balanced, medium or heavyweight cookware. Pans having a flat bottom heat better than warped pans. Cookware material affects heating. Heavy and medium weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.

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.

 

 

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.

Sliding or scraping of metal utensils on cooktop surface. Do not slide metal utensils on cooktop surface. Use a mildly abrasive cleanser to remove marks.

Brown streaks and specks on ceramic glass cooktop surface.

Boilovers have cooked onto surface. Use razor blade scraper to remove soil. See Ceramic-Glass Cooktop section in this Owner's Guide.

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

Areas of discoloration on ceramic glass cooktop surface.

Mineral deposits from water and food. Wet surface with water and sprinkle on a cooktop cleaning creme. Scrub with a clean damp paper towel until the stain disappears. Wipe remaining paste away, then apply a small amount of cooktop cleaning creme and polish with a clean paper towel. Use cookware with clean, dry bottoms. See Ceramic-Glass Cooktop section in this Owner's Guide.

Drip bowls are pitting or rusting.

Foods with acids, such as tomatoes, if allowed to stand in/on bowls will cause corrosion. Remove and wash drip bowls as soon as possible after a spillover.

Normal environment. Houses along sea coast are exposed to salt air. Protect bowls as much as possible from direct exposure to salt air.

Drip bowls turning color or distorted out of shape.

Bottom surface of cookware extends beyond surface elements and touches cooktop surface. This can cause high enough temperatures to discolor the drip bowls. DO NOT use cookware of this type. Pan sizes should be matched to the size of the element. Replacement drip bowls may be purchased from your dealer.

Surface elements not seated properly in terminal. Turn control to OFF. Be sure surface element is COOL. Lift out surface element. Position element properly, following instructions under General Cleaning.

Incorrect control is on. Be sure to use the correct control for the element to be used.
