2. Push in and turn the surface element control knob to desired setting.
3. The surface signal light will glowwhen one or more elements are turned on. Always turn the element
off before removing the pan.
The suggested settings found in the chart below are based on cooking in medium-weight aluminum
pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.
Note: The size and type of utensil used, and the amount and type of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed for best cooking results.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or
plastic wrappings on top of the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Pot
holders, towel or wood spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the element.

Indicator lights
Some models have an indicator light for each heating unit, other models
have an indicator light for each pair of heating units, also some other
models have an indicator light for all heating units.
The indicator light glows as soon as a heating unit is turned on. Check
ifthe indicator light glows when the control knob of the individual heating
unit is turned on. If the knob is set to a very low temperature setting, the
indicator may glow and yet, the heating unit may not be heating at all.
If this happens, turn the knob to a higher setting until the heating unit
