COOKTOP USE
BEFORE USING THE COOKTOP
1. If present, remove all packing and literature from the cooktop surface.
2. Clean your glass top. A thorough cleaning with a glass top cleaner is
recommended. It only takes a minute and puts a clean, shiny coating on the glass
top before its initial use.
3. Place a saucepan of water on each of the front elements and turn them on HI
heat for at least 30 minutes. Turn o the front elements.
4. Place a saucepan of water on each of the rear elements and turn them on HI heat
for at least 30 minutes. Turn o the rear elements.
NOTES:
•
This procedure evaporates any protective oils and humidity collected during
the manufacturing process, and enables the electronic control circuits to
operate properly.
•
There may be a slight odor during the rst several uses: this is normal and
will dissipate.
•
The cooking surface will hold the heat and remain hot over 20 minutes after
the elements have been turned o.
COOKWARE
The choice of pan directly aects the cooking performance (speed and uniformity).
For best results, select pans with the following features.
GENERAL
•
The glass ceramic cooking surface is a durable material resistant to impact, but
not unbreakable if a pan or other object is dropped on it.
•
Do not allow pans to boil dry. This can damage the pan, element and /or cooktop.
•
Never cook food directly on the glass.
•
Do not slide cookware across cooking surface it may scratch the glass
•
Using cast iron cookware on the glass cooktop Is not recommended. Cast iron
retains heat and may result in cooktop damage.
•
Food packaged in aluminum foil should not be placed directly on the glass
ceramic surface for cooking; aluminum foil will melt and cause permanent
damage to the glass surface.
Flat Base
When a pan is hot, the base (pan bottom)should rest evenly on the surface without
wobbling (rocking). Ideal cookware should have a at bottom, straight sides, a well
tting lid and the material should be of medium to heavy thickness.
Rough nishes may scratch the cooktop.
