Operating the TRIPLE Surface Element
The cooktop is equipped with a TRIPLE radiant surface element
located at the right front cooktop position (Figure 1). Indicator
lights on the control panel at that position are used to indicate what
portions of the Triple radiant element will heat. The
INNER
light
indicates that only the inner element will heat. The
+MIDDLE
light
indicates that both inner and middle elements will heat together.
The
ALL
light indicates that all 3 portions of the element will heat.
You may switch between all of these different settings at any time
during cooking.
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.
Do not place aluminum foil or plastic items such as 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.
