Ceramic Glass (on some models)
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.
Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning
Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, putting, abrasions and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or harsh chemicals for cleaning. The Cooktop Care Kit Part Number 31605B contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your ceramic glass cooktop. Refer to the “Range Care” section for additional information.
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each use to remove all soils.
Hot Surface Indicator Light (on some models)
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.
Coil Elements and Burner Bowls (on some models)
Coil elements should be level for optimal cooking results. Burner bowls, when clean, reflect heat back to the cookware. They also help catch spills.
Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) over the coil element. If cookware is uneven or too large, it can produce excess heat, causing the burner bowl to change color.
Dual Cooking Zone (on some models)
The Dual 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 size combines both the single and outer element and is recommended for larger size cookware.
