Radiant surface elements
To operate the radiant element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either
direction (
Figure 5 ) to the desired setting (refer to the
“Suggested radiant surface element settings” table,
Table 1 ).
3. When cooking is complete, turn the radiant surface
element OFF before removing the cookware.
Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then
turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. The surface control
knobs do not have to be set exactly on a particular spot.
Use the graphics provided as a guide and adjust the control
knob as needed (see
Figure 5 ). 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.
Suggested radiant surface element settings
The suggested settings found in Table 1 below are based
on cooking with medium-weight aluminum pans with lids.
Settings may vary when using other types of pans.
Settings Type of Cooktop
High (HI - 9) Start most foods, bring water to a
boil, pan broiling
Medium High (7 - 8) Continue a rapid boil, fry, deep fat
fry
Medium (5 - 6) Maintain a slow boil, thicken sauces
and gravies or steam vegetables
Medium Low (2 - 4) Keep foods cooking, poach, stew
Low (1) Low temperature cooking
Low (LO) Keep warm, melt
Table 1: Suggested settings for radiant elements
Do not allow aluminum foil or ANY material that can melt
to make contact with the radiant surface element. If these
items melt on the cooktop, they will damage the cooktop.
IMPORTANT
Figure 5: Surface control knob
• Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled
after they have been turned off.
The element may
still be hot and burns may occur if the element is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
• Do not place flammable items such as plastic 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.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line surface drip bowls or
reflector pans. Improper installation of these liners
may result in risk of electric shock or fire.
• The size and type of utensil used and the amount and
type of food being cooked will influence the setting
needed for best cooking results.
• The Element ON indicator lights will glow when one or
more elements are turned ON. A quick glance at
these indicator lights when finished cooking is an
easy check to be sure all control knobs are turned
OFF. The Hot Surface indicator light will remain on
AFTER the control knob is turned to the “OFF”
position and will stay on until the heating surface area
has cooled sufficiently.
