Ceramic Glass Cooktop (some models) (continued)
TYPE OF HEATING UNITS USED (continued)
REGULAR RADIANT HEATING UNITS (some models)
The ceramic glass design shows the location of the heating surfaces.
Control knobs are used to set the heat power levels; knobs need first to be pressed in when at OFF position,
then turned to the desired heat settings.
A glowing red surface unit extending beyond the bottom edge of the cooking utensil indicates the utensil is
too small for the unit. The control knob does not have to be set exactly on a particular mark. Use the marks as
a guide and adjust the control knob as needed. The hot surface and surface indicator lights will glow.
EXPANDABLE RADIANT HEATING UNITS (some models)
This heating unit combines the characteristics of a small and a large regular radiant heating unit. Its principal
advantage is to allow small and large utensils to be used on the same heating unit, therefore increasing the
cooktop flexibility.
Heat power levels are adjusted by a special control knob that has a dual set of graduations; for small utensils
use the small graduations; the inner surface only will be heating. For larger utensils use the larger graduations;
the whole surface will be heating.
The hot surface and surface indicator lights will glow when the heating unit is turned ON.
HALOGEN HEATING UNITS (some models)
The halogen element is similar to the radiant element with the addition of a halogen lamp to the heating coil
The lamp immediately heats up and glows bright red when the element is turned on. Cook time is improved.
10-Step Halogen Element (some models)
The control for this type of element can be set in 10 different heating positions.
Each position causes the element to operate continuously at a fixed power output
”MIN or 1“ is the lowest setting, ”MAX or HI“ is the highest.
Infinite Step Halogen Element (some models)
The control for this type of element can be set anywhere between positions ”MIN
or 1“ and ”MAX or HI“.
HOT SURFACE INDICATOR LIGHT (some models)
Some models have an indicator light located on the ceramic glass cooktop that glows as soon
as the glass begins to warm up. When the heating unit is turned off, it will continue to glow
as long as the glass remains warm enough to cause burns. Other models have 4 hot surface
indicators (one per element) arranged in a cluster. Their location is as shown in the illustration.
