Special Notes for Glass Cooktops:

Cooktop temperatures increase with the number of surface units that are on. With 3 or 4 units turned on, surface temperatures are high so be careful when touching the cooktop. The hot surface indicator light will remain lit after the surface unit is off until the surface is cool enough to touch.

NOTE:

At HI und .Medi um High WII ings never leak e food unattended. Boi]ovel”s cause smoking and greasy spillovers may catch fire.

When a surface unit is turned on, the unit can be seen glowing red within a few seconds (longer for radiant units). The red glow will turn on and off (cycling) tc> maintain the selected heat setting. With poor cookware, you will see frequent cycling of the unit off and on. Good, flat cookware will minimize the cycling. See the Surface Cookware Tips section.

. It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven or surface on the glass ceramic surface when it is cool.
