Setting Surface Controls
Operating the Dual Surface Radiant Element
Your model is equipped with Dual radiant surface element in the right &left
front positions (See Figure 1). Turn the knob clockwise to turn on the DUAL
surface element (See Figure 3) and counterclockwise to turn on the SINGLE
surface element (See Figure 2). You may switch from either setting at any
time during cooking.
To Operate the Dual Surface Element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface element.
2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See Figure 2) for
smaller cookware or clockwise (See Figure 3) for larger cookware.
3. Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start most cooking
operations on a higher setting and then turn to a
lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element
provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. 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.
4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The
Surface Indicator light will come on when the control
knob will be turn on and will continue to glow until the
glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level.
The light may remain on even though the controls are
turned OFF.
Note: See page 8, for recommended control settings.
Radiant surface elements may appear to
have cooled after they have been turned off. A hot surface
indicator light will come on and will continue to glow until
the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level.
The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur
if the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has
turned off.
Surface Cooking
Selecting Surface Cooking Cookware
Cookware should have flat bottoms
that make good contact with the entire
surface heating element. Check for
flatness by rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware (See Figure 1).
Be sure to follow the recommendations
for using cookware as shown in Figure
2.
Note: The size and type of cookware
used will influence the setting needed
for best cooking results.
