Copper Bottom:
Copper may leave residues which can appear as scratches. The residues can be
removed, as long as the cooktop is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these
pots boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops. An overheated copper
bottom pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the cooktop if not removed
immediately.
Enamel (painted) on Cast Iron:
Recommended if bottom of pan is coated
Not Recommended
Enamel (painted) on Steel:
Heating empty pans can cause permanent damage to cooktop glass. The enamel
can melt and bond to the ceramic cooktop.
Glass-ceramic:
Poor performance. Will scratch the surface.
Stoneware:
Poor performance. May scratch the surface.
Cast Iron:
Not recommended unless designed specifically for glass cooktops. Poor conductivity
and slow to absorb heat. Will scratch the cooktop surface.
Check pans for flat bottoms by
using a straight edge.
Pans with rounded, curved,
ridged or warped bottoms are
not recommended.
Using the Warming Zone (on some models)
WARNING
FOOD POISON HAZARD:%DFWHULDPD\JURZLQIRRGDW
temperatures below 140°F. The Warming Zone, located
in the back center of the glass surface, will keep hot,
cooked food at serving temperature. Do not use warm
setting for more than 2 hours. Do not use to heat cold
food. Placing uncooked or cold food on the Warming
Zone could result in foodborne illness.
For best results, all foods on the Warming Zone should
be covered with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming
pastries or breads, the cover should be vented to allow
moisture to escape. The initial temperature, type and
amount of food, type of pan, and the time held will affect
the quality of the food.
To turn the Warming Zone on, turn the Warming Zone
knob to the ON position.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing
food from the Warming Zone, since cookware and
plates will be hot.
NOTE: The surface warmer will not glow red like the
cooking elements.
NOTE: The Cancel pad does not turn off the Warming
Zone.
