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 sufficiently.
Do not place alumlnum foil, plastic items
such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These items
could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons
could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements.
Important notes:
* If no element size is chosen when the bridge element is
turned ON, only the front coil will heat by default.
° Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and
then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.
° For efficient 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 wiJJ
occur more often if the cookware is too small for the
radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not fiat.
