■ To avoid damage to the 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 ½" (1.3 cm)
outside the area.
■ 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.
■ Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler,
no space or light should be visible between it and the
cookware.
■ Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small
expansion channels can be used.
■ Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits when
heated.
■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly on
the cooktop.
Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning
Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, pitting,
abrasions and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass
cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for
stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or
harsh chemicals for cleaning. The Cooktop Care Kit Part Number
31605 contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your
ceramic glass cooktop. Refer to the “Range Care” section for
additional information.
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface
and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each
use to remove all soils.
Cooktop On Indicator Light
The Cooktop On indicator light is located on the console panel.
When any control knob on the console panel is turned on, the
Cooktop On indicator light will glow.
Hot Surface Indicator Light (on some models)
On ceramic glass models, the hot surface indicator light is located
on the console panel.
The hot surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface
cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking
area is turned off.
Dual Choice Cooking Element (on some models)
The Dual Choice Cooking Element offers flexibility depending on
the size of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way
as a regular element. The dual size combines both the single and
outer element and is recommended for larger size cookware.
Speed Heat™ Cooking Zone (on some models)
The Speed Heat™ Cooking Zone offers flexibility for two optional
heating choices. The Speed Heat™ option can be used to boil
liquids faster. The lower heat option can be used to prepare
sauces, to brown or saute foods and to keep food at a low
temperature. Use cookware appropriate in size for the Speed
Heat™ Cooking Zone.
