BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Surface cooking settings
Use the chart to determine the correct setting for the
type of food you are preparing.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will inuence
the setting needed for best cooking results.
Recommended Setting for Surface Element
Setting Type of Cooking
HIGH (HI) Start most foods; bring water to a boil
and pan broiling.
MEDIUM HIGH
(8-10)
Continue a rapid boil; frying, deep fat
frying.
MEDIUM (6) Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces
and gravies; steaming vegetables.
MEDIUM LOW
(2 - 4)
Keep foods cooking; poaching and
stewing.
LOW (LO) Keep warm, melting and simmering.
NOTE
Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element
to cycle on and off, even at the HI setting. This helps to
prevent damage to the ceramic smooth top. Cycling at
the HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware
is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware
bottom is not at.
CAUTION
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper
shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch
re if placed too close to the surface elements.
CAUTION
Do not allow aluminum foil, or ANY material that
can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass
cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop they will
damage the ceramic cooktop.
The radiant surface elements are located on the 36”
cooktop as follows:

• Two small 6 inch radiant element located one at the left
rear and the other one at the right rear position.
• One dual 6 or 9 inch radiant element located at the
right front position.
• One 12 inch radiant element located at the left front
position.
• One 7 inch radiant element located at center rear
position.
Model C
Model D
Model D:
• Two small 6 inch radiant element located one at the left
rear and the other one at the right rear position.
• One dual 6 or 9 inch radiant element located at the
right front position.
• One dual 9 or 12 inch radiant element located at the
left front position.

NOTE
Due to the high intensity of heat generated by the
surface elements, the glass surface will turn green
when the element will be turned off. This phenomenon
is normal and the glass will come back to its original
white color after it has completely cooled down. (White
glass cooktops only).
