still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on top of range 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.

setting needed for the best cooking results, The
simmer settings are used to simmer and keep larger
quantities of foods warm such as stews and soups,
The lower simmer settings are ideal for delicate foods
