1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting (Figure
2). 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.
3. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to OFF before removing the
cookware. Note: The Surface Indicator light will come on when the control knob will be
turn 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 OFF.
Note: See above, Figure 1 for recommended control settings.

Setting Surface Controls (Models with Ceramic Glass Cooktop)
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.
Radiant surface
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.
