Hot Surface Light
Your ceramic glass range is equipped with a red
Hot Surface Light that will turn on to indicate that
the cooking surface is hot, It will remain on until
the area has cooled.
Heat Retention
Whenever a cooking area is turned on, heat is
transferred through the cooktop to the utensil. If
the utensil is in proper contact with the cooking
area, it will readily absorb heat. The area
surrounding the element will remain cool.
We suggest that you start with a lower heat setting
then gradually increase the setting until you find
the optimum setting. Boilovers are more likely to
occur if you start out on High then reduce to a
lower setting. Do not wait for liquid to come to a full
boil before reducing the temperature. If food is
cooking too fast or ifboilovers occur, remove the lid
or tare the utensil off the cooking area. Allow
enough time for the cooking area to adjust to the
new setting, then replace the utensil.
The ceramic cooking area retains heat for a period
of time after the element has been turned off, Put
this residual heat to good use. Turn the element off
a few minutes before the food is completely cooked
and use the retained heat to complete the cooking.
After 30 minutes, the cooking surface may be too
cool to keep foods warm. However, the top may
still be too warm to touch. When the Hot Surface
Light turns off, the top will be cool enough to
touch.
CANADIAN RANGES: A ceramic glass
cooktop will not operate during a self-clean
cycle. This is normal.
