SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Dual radiant surface elements
Symbols on the backguard will help choose which
portion of the dual radiant element to set. The
symbol indicates a setting for the inner element
only. The symbol indicates a setting for both inner
and outer elements.
To operate a dual radiant element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob
clockwise to begin heating both the inner and
outer elements. If only the inner element is
needed for smaller cookware, push in and turn
the knob counter-clockwise.
3. When cooking is complete, turn the knob to
OFF before removing the cookware.
Start most cooking operations on a higher setting
and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.
The surface control knobs do not have to be set
exactly on a particular mark. Use the marks as a
guide and adjust the control knob as needed.
A glowing red surface heating area extending be-
yond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates
the cookware is too small for the surface heating
area.
CAUTION
• Radiant surface elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned o. The
element may still be hot and burns may occur
if the element is touched before it has cooled
suciently.
• Do not place flammable items such as plastic
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.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line surface drip
bowls or reflector pans. Improper installation
of these liners may result in risk of electric
shock or fire.
IMPORTANT
Do not allow aluminum foil or ANY material that
can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass
cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop, they
will damage the ceramic cooktop.
NOTE
• The size and type of utensil used and the
amount and type of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed for best cooking
results.
• The Element ON indicator lights will glow
when one or more elements are turned ON.
A quick glance at these indicator lights when
finished cooking is an easy check to be sure
all control knobs are turned OFF. The Hot Sur-
face indicator light will remain on AFTER the
control knob is turned to the “OFF” position
and will stay on until the heating surface area
has cooled suciently.
