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 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 dose to the surface elements.
I_ Do not allow aluminum foil, empty glass/
porcelain cookware or ANY materlal that can melt to
make contact with the ceramic cooktop. If these items melt
on the cooktop they may damage the ceramic cooktop.
Radiant elements have o limiter that allows the radiant
heating element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the HI
setting. This helps prevent damage to the ceramic
smoothtop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and will
occur more often if the cool(wore is too small for the
radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.
° 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.
