Using Your Cooktop

Using the dual size surface unit

(Models KECC508G, YKECC508G, KECC568G, YKECC568G)

You can use the left front surface unit as either a small diameter, lower wattage element (center inner ring) for smaller pans or as a large diameter, full wattage element (entire element to outer ring) for larger pans.

Use both elements for larger pans

Use inner element for small pans

To use the small or inner element:

Touch SINGLE ON/OFF. The HI and LO lights will blink on and off indicating a choice of either HI or LO power selection.

Touch the arrow pointing to LO for low power.

To use both elements:

Touch DUAL ON/OFF and proceed the same as for SINGLE ON/OFF.

Using the ceramic glass cooktop

Halogen element (Models KECC507G, YKECC507G, KECC567G, YKECC567G and KECC567H)

The right front and left rear surface units feature halogen elements. These elements light up as soon as you turn them on and are brighter than regular coil elements.

Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop is similar to cooking on coil elements. There are, however, a few differences:

The surface cooking area will glow red when the element is turned on. You will see the element cycling on and off – even on the HI setting – to help the area stay at the temperature setting you chose.

Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.

Do not cook popcorn that comes in prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. The container could leave aluminum marks on the cooktop that cannot be removed completely.

Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry before using them. Food and water particles left on the bottoms can leave deposits on the cooktop when it is heated.

Lift pots and pans onto and off of the cooktop. Sliding pots and pans on the cook- top could leave marks that are difficult to remove or could leave permanent marks.

Dropping a heavy or hard object on the cooktop could crack it. Be careful when using heavy skillets and large pots. Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop.

Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.

Do not allow anything that could melt, such as plastic, to come in contact with the cook- top while it is hot.
