Using the Black-Glass Cooktop

Cooking on a black-glass cooktop is almost the same as cooking on any cooktop. There are three differences you should know about to get the best cooking results.

1.The cookware you use.

2.What to expect.

3.The care and cleaning.

Cookwae

Use only flat-bottomed utensils on the cooktop. Pans without flat bottoms and specialty items with rounded or ridged bottoms (woks or tea kettles) will cause uneven heating and poor cooking results.

To check your cookware for flatness, place a straight-edge across the bottom of each piece. Move the straight edge around. If light shows anywhere between the pan and the straight edge, the pan is not flat. Do not use it.

CAUTION: The use oi utensils without flat bottoms could cause damage to the cooktop.

Utensil bottoms must be clean and free from nicks and scratches. Heating a soiled pan can leave a stain on the cooktop and cause scratches.

CAUTION: Using a pan wlth

a nloked or scratched bottom could damage the cooldop.

DO NOT slide pans across the cook- top. Sliding pans on the cooktop surface could leave marks. Aluminum marks can be removed If they are not heated. Other marks may be permanent. See page 9 for cleaning and caring suggestions.
