Cooktop Operation
INITIAL START-UP
Before using your electric cooktop for the first time, clean
the glass-ceramic surface as recommended in the
cleaning section on page 15. The cooktop surface must
be free of any foreign substances, especially those that
could melt and permanently adhere to the glass-ceramic
surface.
When the cooktop is powered up for the first time it will
default to lock mode. To unlock the control panel, touch
and hold the key symbol for 3 seconds.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
A small amount of smoke and odor
may be noticed during the initial break-in period.
