COOKTOP USE

COOKTOP USE

Fire HazardWARNING

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

The control knobs can be set to anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Push in and turn to setting.

REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models) during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

Triple Cooking Zones

The Triple Cooking Zone offers flexibility depending on the size of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way as a regular element. The dual and triple sizes combine single, dual and outer element and are recommended for larger size cookware, large quantities of food, and home canning.

Ceramic Glass

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It may cycle on and off to maintain the selected heat level.

Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking area. Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the area.

Cleaning off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it free from stains and provide the most even heating.

Cooktop On Indicator Light

The Cooktop On indicator light is located on the console panel. When any control knob on the console panel is turned on, the Cooktop On indicator light will glow.

Hot Surface Indicator Light

On ceramic glass models, the hot surface indicator light is located on the console panel.

The hot surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area is turned off.

Speed Heat™ Cooking Zone (on some models)

The Speed Heat™ Cooking Zone offers flexibility for 2 optional heating choices. The Speed Heat™ option can be used to boil liquids faster. The lower heat option can be used to prepare sauces, to brown or saute foods and to keep food at a low temperature. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Speed Heat™ Cooking Zone.

Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking.

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Use the Warming Center element to keep cooked foods warm. One hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain food quality.

Do not use it to heat cold foods.

The Warming Center element can be used alone or when any of the other surface cooking areas are being used.

The Warming Center element area will not glow red when cycling on. However, its indicator light will glow as long as the Warming Center element area is too hot to touch.
