Turn off all controls when done cooking.
Failure to do so can result in death or fire.
Control knobs must be pushed in before turning them to a
setting. The controls can be set anywhere between HI and LO.
Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

• Do notstorejarsorcans above the cooktop.Droppinga
heavy orhardobjectontothecooktop couldcrackthe
cooktop.
• Do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools,
air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop,
and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.
For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and
soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down
slightly; then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills
while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to
cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause
pitting and permanent marks.
• Do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop.
Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on cookware
or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the cooktop.
• Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers
on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that
cannot be removed completely.
• Do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or
aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.
• Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.
• Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking
area. Cookware should not extend more than 1" (2.5 cm)
outside the area.
I
REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models)
during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may
become hot.

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and
energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or
dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor
cooking results.
