Operating the Single Surface
Elements (All models)
To Operate the Single Surface Elements
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either
direction to the desired setting (Figure 1).
3. Turn the knob to adjust the setting if desired. 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. Ceramic Glass Cooktop Only: 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.
4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface
control knob to OFF before removing the
cookware.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper
shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch
fire if placed too close to the surface elements.

Ceramic Glass Cooktop only: Radiant elements have
a limiter that allows the element to cycle on and off,
even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage
to the ceramic smooth top. Cycling at the HI setting is
normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for
the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.
The "Hot Surface" indicator lights will glow when the
element is turned on and will continue to glow after the
control knob is turned to the "OFF" position. It will glow
until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.
The glass surface may still be hot and burns may
, occur if the glass surface is touched before the indicator
light has turned OFR The message may remain on even
