Setting Surface Controls
General Cooktop information
Use the chart below to determine the correct setting for the kind of food you are
preparing. The Simmer settings are used to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods
warm such as stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal for delicate foods
and melting chocolate or butter.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best
cooking results.
