Setting Surface Controls

Models with Ceramic Glass Cooktop
(continued)

Operating the Dual Surface Radiant Element
(Models with Ceramic Glass Cooktop Only)

Model A is equipped with Dual radiant surface elements at
all positions (See Figs. 5 & 6). Models B, C, D & E are
equipped with a dual radiant surface element located at the
right front (See Figs. 7 to 14) position. Symbols on the
control panel are used to indicate which coil of the dual
radiant element will heat. The 

 symbol indicates that only

the inner coil will heat (Figs. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 & 13). The 

symbol indicates that both inner and outer coils will heat
(Figs. 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 & 14). You may switch from either
coil setting at any time during cooking.

To Operate the Dual Surface Element:

1.

Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface
element.

2.

Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise
(See Fig. 3) for smaller cookware or clockwise (See
Fig. 4) for larger cookware.

3.

Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. 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.

4.

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 page 9, Fig. 1 for recommended control settings.

 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.
