Surface Units

Solid element surface units are made of heavy cast-iron to provide even cooking. Each surface unit has a built-in protective limiter. The limiter senses

uneven cooking temperatures and automatically reduces the heat setting. The limiter will sense uneven heat when a pan boils dry, when a pan does not have a flat bottom, or when a pan is removed and the surface unit is left on.

Solid elements hold heat longer than conventional surface units. For best cook- ing results, use a high setting for only a very short period of time. Then use a lowe setting to complete the cooking. You may want to turn the solid element OFF a few minutes before you are finished cooking.
