Dual radiant surface elements (some models)
Symbols provided on the backguard graphics will indicate
which coil of the dual radiant element will heat. The
symbol indicates the inner coil only. The symbol
indicates both inner and outer coils will heat.
You may switch from either coil setting at any time during
cooking. See Suggested radiant surface element
settings table on previous page.
To operate a dual radiant element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on dual radiant surface
element.
2. If only the inner heating portion is needed, push in
and turn the knob counter-clockwise to start (Fig. 1).
Push in and turn the surface control knob clockwise
to when heating both the inner and outer (Fig. 2)
portions of the dual element together.
3. When nished cooking, turn the dual radiant surface
element OFF before removing the cookware.
Areas that heat are shown darkened.
Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and
then turn to a lower setting to nish cooking. The surface
control knobs do not have to be set exactly on a particular
mark. Use the marks as a guide and adjust the control
knob as needed. 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.
IMPORTANT
Do not allow aluminum foil, or ANY material that
can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass
cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop they will
damage the ceramic cooktop.
NOTES
Quick boil feature (some models)
Your appliance may be equipped with one or two elements
on the ceramic cooktop marked quick boil.
These radiant elements are best used when bringing larger
quantities of liquid to temperature and when preparing
larger quantities of food.
•Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled
after they have been turned off. The glass surface
may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass
surface is touched before it has cooled sufciently.
•Donotplaceammableitemssuch as plastic
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 re if placed too close to
the surface elements.
•The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and
type of food being cooked will inuence the setting
needed for best cooking results.
•The element on indicator lights will glow when one
or more elements are turned ON. A quick glance at
these indicator lights when cooking is nished is an
easy check to be sure all control knobs are turned OFF.
The hot surface indicator light will continue to glow
AFTER the control knob is turned to the OFF position
and will glow until the heating surface area has cooled
sufciently.
