• BEFORE FIRST USE CLEAN COOKTOP. (See p. 16.)
• For best results, always use recommended cookware.
• Make sure bottom of cookware is clean before placing on cooktop.
• Covering pans, whenever possible, speeds cooking and is more energy efficient,
This is especially important when cooking large quantities of foods.
The glass-ceramic cooking area retains heat for a period of time after the elements
have been turned off. Put this retained heat to good use. Turn the elements off a
few minutes before food iscompletely cooked and use the retained heat to complete
the cooking. Because of this heat retention characteristic, the elements will not
respond to changes in settings as quickly as coil elements. Inthe event of a potential
boilover, remove the cookpot from the cooking area.
• When preparing foods which can be easily scorched or overcooked, start cooking at
a lower setting and gradually increase setting as needed.
• A lower setting can be used when cooking small quantities of foods or when using
a cookpot that conducts heat quickly.
• A higher setting than normal may be necessary when using cookpots made with a
material that is slow to conduct heat, such as cast iron.
IMPORTANT
• Do not use wire trivets, fire rings, pads or any such item between the cookware and
the element,
• Do not cook foods directly on cooktop.
• Do not allow pan to boil dry as this could damage the cooktop and the pan.
• Do not slide heavy metal or glass cookpots across surface since these may scratch
the surface.
• Do not use or place plastic items anywhere on cooktop.
