Cooking with Smoothtop Elements
WARNING
To avoid risk of serious personal injury never cook on
a broken smoothtop cooking surface. Spillovers or
cleaners can penetrate surface and create a risk of
electrical shock. If smoothtop cooking surface breaks,
discontinue use and notify an authorized servicer
immediately.
Before cooking on smoothtop, wipe top with cleaner
conditioner. Conditioning smoothtop before use makes
marks and stains easier to remove.
Use heavy-gauge metal cookware not including cast
iron.
Bottom of cookware must be flat. Cookware that is
warped or slightly curved on the bottom heats slowly
and may not boil water. Cookware with an aluminum
disk bottom makes excellent contact with cooking
surface. See
Utensils
section for more information.
Smoothtop cooking surface is not “scratch proof”.
Surface is highly scratch and impact resistant. With
recommended cooking utensils and proper care, it will
continue looking good through years of use.
Do not use glass, glass-ceramic, or enamel-porcelain
cookware. Small imperfections on bottom of such
cookware can scratch smoothtop surface.
