ELEMENT ON and Hot Surface Indicator Lights
Your range is equipped with two different types of radiant surface control indicator
lights that will glow on your range— the
ELEMENT ON
indicator light and the
Hot
Surface
indicator lights (See illustration at left).
The
ELEMENT ON
located on the control panel and will glow when a surface
element is turned ON. A quick glance at this indicator light after cooking is an
easy check to be sure ALL surface controls are turned OFF.
The
Hot Surface
indicator lights
located above each surface radiant control
knob
will glow as the surface cooking area heats up and will
REMAIN ON
until
the glass cooktop has cooled to a
MODERATE
level.
About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of the glass. The design of the ceramic
cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath.
Be sure
to match the pan size with the diameter of the
element outline on the cooktop. Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only flat-
bottomed cookware should be used.
The type and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use and their settings, are all factors that will affect the
amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements may become
hot enough to cause burns.
NOTE
: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the
General Care & Cleaning
and
Before
You Call
checklist sections of this Use & Care Guide.
NOTE
: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI setting. This helps to
prevent damage to the ceramic smooth top. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and will occur more often if the cookware
is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.
About the Radiant Surface Elements
The element temperature rises gradually and evenly.
As the temperature rises, the element will glow red.
To maintain the selected setting, the element will
cycle on and off. The heating element retains
enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent
heat during the off cycle.
For efficient cooking, turn off the element several
minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow
residual heat to complete the cooking process.
