Single radiant surface elements (all models)
To operate the single radiant element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on single radiant
surface element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either
direction (Fig. 2) to the desired setting (Refer to the
Suggested radiant surface element settings
table Fig. 1). Start most cooking operations on a
higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to nish
cooking. The surface control knobs do not have to
be set exactly on a particular spot. Use the graphics
provided as a guide and adjust the control knob as
needed (See Fig. 2). Each surface element provides
a constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing
red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom
edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too
small for the surface heating area.
3. When cooking is complete, turn the radiant surface
element OFF before removing the cookware.
The suggested settings found in Fig. 1 below are based
when cooking with medium-weight aluminum pans with
lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.
Suggested radiant surface element
settings
The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and
type of food being cooked will inuence the setting
needed for best cooking results.
The element on indicator lights will glow when one or
more elements are turned ON. A quick glance at these
indicator lights when cooking is nished is an easy check to
be sure all control knobs are turned OFF. The hot surface
indicator light will continue to glow AFTER the control
knob is turned to the OFF position and will glow until the
heating surface area has cooled sufciently.
NOTES

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled

surface is touched before it has cooled sufciently.
