Using the
cookware
correctly
Cookware must fully contact the surface of the
cooking element.
Use flat-bottomed pans sized to fit the cooking
element and also to the amount of food being
prepared.
CAUTION:
• The cooking elements may appear to be cool
while turned ON and after they have been turned
OFF. The glass surface may be HOT from residual
heat transferred from the cookware and burns
may occur.
• DO NOT TOUCH HOT COOKWARE or PANS
directly with hands. Always use mitts or pot
holders to protect hands from burns.
• DO NOT SLIDE cookware across the cooktop
surface. Doing so may permanently damage
the appearance of the ceramic cooktop.
