■ Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping
a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the
cooktop.
■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on
the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped
between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass
could break when the lid is removed.
■ For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills
and soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool
down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the
spills using a scraper while the surface is still warm. If
sugary spills are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to
the cooktop and can cause pitting and permanent marks.
■ To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware
across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough
nishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or
marks on the cooktop.
■ Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers
on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that
cannot be removed completely.
■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that
could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any
part of the entire cooktop.
■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as
a cutting board.
■ Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking
area. Cookware should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm)
outside the area.
■ Use at-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and
energy eciency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed,
or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor
cooking results.
■ Determine atness by placing the straight edge of a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the
ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and the
cookware.
■ Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small
expansion channels can be used.
■ Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits
when heated.
■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods
directly on the cooktop.

Triple Zone Cooking Element
The Triple Zone cooking element oers exibility depending on
the size of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same
way as a regular element. The dual and triple sizes combine
the single, dual, and outer elements and are recommended for
larger cookware, larger quantities of food, and home canning.
Turbo Boil Element (right front element)
The Turbo Boil cooking element oers additional cooking
exibility. The Turbo Boil cooking element can be used to boil
liquids faster. The lowest heat setting can be used to prepare
sauces, to brown or sauté foods, and to keep foods at a low
temperature. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Turbo
Boil cooking element.
Melt Element
The Melt cooking element oers exibility due to a wide range
of settings between Hi and Melt. The Hi heat option can be
used to boil small amounts of liquid quickly. To reduce the
power setting, turn the knob clockwise. The Melt setting is
designed for delicate foods that require low heat, such as
when melting chocolate or holding sauces. Use cookware
appropriate in size for the Melt cooking element.
