Indicator Hot/Lights
Located in center of control panel, cooktop has 4
indicator lights. When element is on, corresponding
indicator light glows. After the surface controls are turned
off, the appropriate surface indicator light will continue to
glow until the surface elements have cooled. The length
of time each light remains on will vary. Do not expect the
lights for two different heating areas to go off at the same
time even if the elements were turned off simultaneously.
Cooking Utensils
For best cooking results, use a pan with a flat bottom.
Determine if pan has a flat bottom. (Figure 13)
1. Rotate a ruler along bottom of pan. If pan is not flat,
gaps between bottom of pan and edge of ruler occur.
2. A small groove or mark on a pan does not effect
cooking times. However, if a pan has a gap, formed
rings, or an uneven bottom, it does not cook
efficiently and in some cases may not boil liquid.
