• Comes on when the unit is turned on or hot to the touch.
• Stays on even after the unit is turned off.
• Glows until the unit is cooled to approximately 150 °F.
Cooking areas
• The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent circles on the glass cooking
surface. For the most efficient cooking, fit the pan size to the element size.
•
Pans should not extend more than ½˝ to 1˝ beyond the cooking area.
• When a control is turned on, you can see a glow through the glass cooking surface.
The
element will cycle on and off to maintain the preset heat setting, even at high settings.
• For more information on selecting proper types of cookware, refer to the section “Using the
proper cookware” on page 23.
