Tips to Protect the
Glass-Ceramic Surface
On Canadian flee-standing models, the right front ele-
ment may not operate during a self-clean cycle. On
Canadian slide-in and drop-in models, none of the sur-
face burners will operate during self-clean. This is nor-
mal.
Cooktop may emit a light smoke and odor the first few
times the cooktop is used. This is normal.
When a control is turned on, a red glow from the element
can be seen through the glass-ceramic surface. The
element will cycle on and off to maintain the preset heat
setting.
Glass-ceramic cooktops retain heat for a period of time
after the unit is turned off. When the HOT SURFACE
light turns off (see below), the element will be cool
enough to touch.
Glass-Ceramic Cooking Areas
The cooking areas on your range are identified by perma-
nent patterns on the glass-ceramic surface. For most effi-
cient cooking, fit the pan size to the element size.
Pans should notextendmore than 1/2 to finch beyondthe
cooking area. (For more information on cookware, refer to
"Cooking Made Simlfle" booklet.)

Before first use, clean the cooktop as directed in the
cleaning chart on pages 20-21.
Do not use glass pans. They may scratch the surface.
Do not allow plastic, sugar or %ods with high sugar
content to melt onto the hot cooktop. If these acciden-
tally melt onto the cooktop, clean immediately. (See
cleaning chart, pages 20-21.)
Never use cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
Never cook food directly on the surface.
Never let a pan boil dry as this will permanently damage
the surface and pan.
Never use foil-type disposable containers or place a
trivet or wok ring between the surface and pan. These
items can mark or etch the top.
Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface. The
pans may leave marks which need to be removed
promptly. (See cleaning chart, pages 20-21).
Make sure the surface and the pan bottom are clean
before turning on to prevent scratches.
Hot Surface Lights
Each element has a HOT SURFACE
indicatorlight. A light will be
illuminated when the
matching surface
element is hot. It
will remain on, even after
the control is turned off, until the
area has cooled. They are located at the
f?ont center of the cooktop.
