OPERATION
The cooking surface areas of your glass ceramic cooktop are identified by permanent patterns in the
cooktop. Keeping the cooktop at top performance levels can be achieved by following the simple
guidelines for use and cleaning below.
Heating Elements
This cooktop contains radiant heating elements, which will “light up” about 4-5 seconds after being
turned on. The special design of these elements directs the heat up through the ceramic glass,
providing efficient cooking. Temperature limiters are included in each element to ensure that the safe
operating temperature of the ceramic glass top is not exceeded. The temperature limiter will cycle
the radiant element on and off to prevent exceeding the maximum safe surface temperature.
Cookware
Cooking on a glass ceramic cooktop does not require special pots or pans. Since cookware plays an
important role in cooking efficiency and convenience, keep in mind the following information when
selecting your cookware.
Ɣ
The cookware should have a flat bottom. Although glass and other types of cookware can be
used, aluminum, stainless steel and other types of metal cookware, with thick, smooth, flat
bottoms usually work best. Avoid cookware with shaped and rounded bottoms, as well as
utensils that warp when heated.
Ɣ
Use cookware that is about as wide as the cooking zone on which it is used. Using cookware
with the correct diameter achieves maximum heating efficiency in the shortest possible time.
Ɣ
Be certain that both the cooktop surface and the bottom of your pots and pans are clean and dry
before use. By doing so, you will help prevent scratches and stains.
