Operating the Triple Surface Radiant Control

Operating the Triple Element (some models)

The cooktop is equipped with a TRIPLE radiant surface element located at the right front cooktop position (See Fig. 1). Indicator lights on the control panel at that position are used to indicate what portions of the Triple radiant element will heat. The INNER light indicates that only the inner element will heat. The +MIDDLE light indicates that both inner and middle elements will heat together. The ALL light indicates that all 3 portions of the element will heat. You may switch between all of these different settings at any time during cooking.

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

sufficiently.

Do not place aluminum

foil or

plastic items such

as 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.
