The suggested settings found in the table below are based on
cooking in medium-weight aluminum pans with lids. Settings
may vary when using other types of pans.
To Operate Surface Elements (all models)
1. Place cooking utensil on the surface element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob either
direction to the desired setting. Start most cooking
operations on a higher setting and then turn to a
lower setting to nish cooking. The control knobs do
not have to be set exactly on a particular setting. Use
the settings as a guide and adjust the control knob as
needed.
3. When cooking is completed, turn the surface element
OFF before removing the pan. Note: The surface
“ELEMENT ON” indicator light(s) will glow when one
or more elements are turned on. A quick glance at
these indicator light(s) when cooking is nished is an
easy check to be sure all surface elements are turned
off. See chart below for recommended control settings
for different types of foods.
