Operating the Dual Surface Radiant Element
The cooktop is equipped with a dual radiant surface element
located at the right & left front (See Figure 6) positions.
Symbols on the control panel are used to indicate which coil of
the dual radiant element wifl heat. The •symbo[ indicates that
only the inner coil will heat (Figures 1 and 3). The (_ symbol
indicates that both inner and outer coils will heat (Figures 4
and 6). You may switch from either coil setting at any time
during cooking.
To Operate the Dual Surface Element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface
element.
.
.
Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See
Figure 2) for smaller cookware or clockwise (See Figure 5)
for larger cookware.
Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start most
cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a
lower setting to finish cooking. 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.

.
When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The
Surface Indicator light will come on when the control knob
is turned on and will continue to glow until the glass
cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. The light
may remain on even though the controls are turned OFF.
Note: See page g, Figure 1 for recommended control settings.
Surface Cooking
Cookware should have flat
bottoms that make good contact
with the entire surface heating
element. Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across the bottom
of the cookware (See Figure 8).
Be sure to follow the
recommendations for using
cookware as shown in Figure 7.
Note: The size and type of
cookware used wi[[ influence the
setting needed for best cooking
results.
