such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These
items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden
spoons could catch fi re if placed too close to the surface
elements.
Important notes:
• If no element size is chosen when the expandable element
is turned ON, only the inner coil will heat by default.
• Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and
then turn to a lower setting to fi nish cooking.
• For effi cient cooking, turn the surface element OFF
several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow
residual heat to complete the cooking process.
• A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the
bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is
too small for the surface heating area.
• Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the radiant
heating element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the 9
(hi) setting. This helps prevent damage to the ceramic
cooktop. Cycling at the 9 (HI) setting is normal and will
occur more often if the cookware is too small for the
radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not fl at.
