Before using the solid elements for the
first time, you must cure them to harden
the protective coating. If the elements
are not cured properly, the coating can
stick to your pan and remove some of
the lnish on the element.
To cure the sold elements, heat each element at HI
setting without a pan on the element. There will be some
non4oxic smoke and the rings around the elements will
change to a gold color. Use your venting system to
minimize the smoke° Heat the elements for 3-5 minutes,
until the smeking stops.
Solid elements do not become "red hot." Each element
has a built-in "temperature limiter]' If the element is left
turned on without a pan, or if a pan boils dry, the timiter
will detect the e_,.cess heat buildup and automatically
turn the element down.
RadianI (sonde mo_lsls)
The radiant module features two heating coils beneath
a smooth glass surface. When a cooking zone is acti-
vated, coils beneath the zone radiate heat through the
g_asstothe utensil. Depending on yourselected control
setting, the coil cycles on and off to maintain the correct
temperature setting.

Use the grill to prepa re meats with the flavor and appear-
ance of charbroiled meats. The grill must be very hot for
this type of cooking. Use your venting system to help
minimize smoke. The grill must be preheated to get the
grill components hot enough. Preheat for 10 minutes on
HI then turn back to the recommended setting.
The grill element isdivided so the front and rear sections
are controlled separately. BOth sections can be heated
to the same temperature for grilling large amounts of the
same food, or you can vary the temperature for cooking
two different foods.
Never leave the kitchen while grilling meats or other
juicy foods. Fats may drip and cause flame-ups. You
