Setting Surface Controls
Surface Cooking Settings
Use the chart (Figure 1) to determine the correct setting for the kind of food you are preparing.
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 and melting
chocolate or butter.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best cooking
results.

Operating Single Radiant Surface Elements
The cooktop has single radiant surface elements at 2 locations; the right rear and
the left rear (Figure 2) element positions.
To Operate the Single Surface Elements:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface element.
, Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired
setting (Figure 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. 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 Hot 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 OFR
Note: See above, Figure 1 for recommended control settings.
_Radiantsurface
elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been
turned off. A hot surface
indicator light will come on
and will continue to glow until
the glass cooktop has cooled
down to a moderate level. The
glass surface may still be
hot and burns may occur if
the glass surface is touched
before the indicator light has
turned off.
Do not place
plastic items such as salt
and pepper shakers, spoon
holders or plastic wrappings
on top of the 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. .................
