Using and Caring for Your Cooktop
Using the dual-size surface unit
(some models)
You can use the right rear surface unit as
either a small diameter, lower wattage
element or large diameter, full wattage
element.
Use both element_
for larger pans
Use small element
for smaller pans
To use the small element
(for smaller pans):
• Push in and turn the control knob to the
left (counterclockwise) to the desired
setting in the area marked "SINGLE".
To use both elements
(for larger pans):
• Push in and turn the control knob to the
right (clockwise) to the desired setting in
the area marked "DUAL".
NOTE: You can turn the control knob in
either direction to reach "OFF".

Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop is
almost the same as cooking on coil surface
units. There are, however, a few differences:
• The cooking surface area willglow red
when the element is turned on. You will
see the element cycling on and off- even
on the HI setting - to help the area stay at
the temperature setting you choose.
• Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans
are clean and dry before cooking. Food
and water particles lefton the bottoms can
leave deposits on the cooktop when it is
heated.
• Wiping off the cooktop before and after
each use will help keep the surface free
from stains and give you the most even
heating. See pages 14 and 15 for care
and cleaning suggestions.
• Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
• Lift pots and pans onto and off of the
cooktop. Sliding pots and pans on the
cooktop could leave marks that are difficult
to remove or could leave permanent marks.
• Do not cook popcorn that comes in
prepackaged aluminum containers on the
cooktop. The container could leave alumi-
num marks on the cooktop that cannot be
removed completely.
