Hot Element Indicator Message
After using any of the radiant element positions the cool<top
will become very hot. Even after setting the controls to OFF,
the cooktop will remain hot for some time. The cooktop
control monitors the temperature of the cooktop and
displays the message "H" (hot element) warning when the
cooktop is still too hot to touch. If the H message appears in
the window, the control can still be turned on again for use.
_ Radiant surface elements may appear to
have cooled after they have been turned off:. The glass
surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass
surface is touched before it has cooled sumciently.
Do not place aluminum foil, plastic items
such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when if is in use. These
items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden
spoons could catch fire if placed too dose to the surface
elements.
Important notes:
If no element size is chosen when the expandable element
is turned ON, only the inner coil will heat by default.
° Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and
then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.
° For emcient cooking, turn the surface element OFF
several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow
residual heat to complete the cooking process.
° A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the
bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is
too small for the surface heating area.
° Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the radiant
heating element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the 9
(hi) setting. This helps prevent damage to the ceramic
cooktop. Cycling at the 9 (HI) setting is normal and will
occur more often if the cookware is too small for the
radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not fiat.
