COOKTOP USE

Cooktop Controls

The control knobs can be set anywhere between HI and LO. Push 
in and turn to setting. The surface cooking area locator shows 
which element is turned on. Use the following chart as a guide 
when setting heat levels.

Power On Light

The Power On light will glow when any of the coil element(s) is 
turned on.

Ceramic Glass

(on some models)

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It 
will cycle on and off, at all settings, to maintain the selected heat 
level. 

It is normal for the surface of white ceramic glass to appear to 
change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As the glass 
cools, it will return to its original color. 

Wiping off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it 
free from stains and provide the most even heating. For more 
information, see “General Cleaning” section.

Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a 
heavy or hard object on the cooktop could crack it.

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.

Clean up sugary spills and soils as soon as hot surface 
indicator light goes off. If spills or soils are not wiped up while 
warm, surface pitting can occur.

Do not slide cookware or bakeware across the cooktop. 
Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough finishes on 
cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or marks on the 
cooktop.

Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers 
on the cooktop. It could leave aluminum marks that cannot 
be removed completely.

Do not allow objects that could melt, such as plastic or 
aluminum foil, to touch any part of the entire 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 1 in. (2.5 cm) 
outside the area.

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 rotating the ruler, 
no space or light should be visible between it and the 
cookware.

Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small 
expansion channels can be used.

Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry 
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits 
when heated.

Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
