If you attempt to use Performance Boost on more than 1 surface
cooking area in the same zone, “P” will briefly flash in the display,
and then the first surface cooking area selected for Performance
Boost will automatically be set back to the highest available
power level. The last surface cooking area selected will be set to
Performance Boost.
1.
Check that a surface cooking area has been selected.
2.
Touch BOOST on the heat level slider. “P” will appear in
the display.
3.
Touch BOOST again when finished. The “P” will no longer be
visible in the display and the Performance Boost function will
no longer be active. The surface cooking area turns back to
the highest available power level.
NOTE:
The Performance Boost function may automatically
deactivate to keep the internal electronic components of the
cooktop from becoming too hot.
Timer
Use the cooktop timer to set times from 1 to 90 minutes. The
cooktop timer is independent of any other control settings. The
Timer can be associated with only one surface element at a time,
which is indicated by blinking LEDs. The Timer will not shut the
surface element off at the end of the countdown.
To Use:
1.
Touch TIMER “+” or “-.” “01” appears in the cooktop
timer display.
2.
Touch TIMER “+” to increase the time in 1-minute increments.
OR
Touch TIMER “-” to decrease the time in 1-minute increments.
3.
The cooktop Timer will start to count down after a few
seconds.
To change the time, touch TIMER “+” or TIMER “-.”
4.
When the countdown is finished, “00” flashes and a tone will
sound.
NOTE:
The surface element being timed must remain active or the
Timer will stop and reset to “00.”

Ceramic Glass
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.
■
Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping
a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the
cooktop.
■
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on
the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped
between the lid and the cooktop and the ceramic glass could
break when the lid is removed.
■
For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and
soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down
slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills while
the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool
down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting
and permanent marks.
■
To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across
the cooktop.
■
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that
could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part
of the entire cooktop.
■
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. Minimum pan size is also noted on the
cooktop with the inner ring, if applicable.
■
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.
■
To determine which pan to use on which induction element,
measure the bottom of the flat area of your pan. Do not include
the sides if they curve up. Use this measurement to help
determine which induction element would best fit your pan.
Manufacturer measurements listed on pans are usually for the
top opening dimension. The flat bottom may be smaller.
■
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits
when heated.
