Surface Controls
Special Notes for Glass Cooktops:
Cooktop temperatures increase with the number of
surface units that are on. With 3 or 4 units turned
on, surface temperatures are high so be careful
when touching the cooktop. The hot surface
indicator light will remain lit after the surface unit
is off until the surface is cool enough to touch.
NOTE:
• At HI and Medium High settings never leave food
unattended. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers may catch fire.
• At Medium Low and LO settings melt chocolate
and butter on a small surface unit.
• When a surface unit is turned on, the unit can be
seen glowing red within a few seconds. The red
glow will turn on and off (cycling) to maintain the
selected heat setting. With poor cookware, you will
see frequent cycling of the unit off and on. Good,
flat cookware will minimize the cycling. See the
Surface Cookware Tips section.
• It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven or
surface on the glass surface when it is cool.
Hot Surface Indicator Light
A “HOT SURFACE” light will glow brightly when
any radiant element is turned on, and will remain lit
after the unit is turned off until the surface is cool
enough to touch. Each element has its own “HOT
SURFACE” indicator light.
• It comes on instantly when the unit is turned on.
• It stays on even after the unit is turned off.
• It glows brightly until the unit is safe to touch.
A “HOT SURFACE” light will glow brightly
when any halogen/radiant element is turned on.
