■
Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and
energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or
dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor
cooking results.
■
Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler,
no space or light should be visible between it and the
cookware.
■
Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small
expansion channels can be used.
■
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits
when heated.
■
Do not
cook foods directly on the cooktop.

area(s) is turned off.
Dual-Circuit Element
(on ceramic glass models)

Simmer Feature
(on ceramic glass models)
The Simmer feature is an adjustable heat setting for more precise
simmering. It is the right front surface cooking area or element.
When the Simmer Feature is not on, the right front surface
cooking area or element will function as usual.
When this feature is on, the wattage to the burner is significantly
reduced. It provides a wide range of temperatures for simmering.
Choose from the higher levels for stocks and water-based foods
or the lower levels for sauces, puddings and gravies.
To Use:
1.
Set SIMMER switch to ON.
2.
Set SIMMER switch to OFF when finished.
Warming Element
(on ceramic glass models)
Use the Warming Element to keep cooked foods warm. One hour
is the recommended maximum time to maintain food quality.
Do not use it to heat cold foods.
The Warming Element can be used alone or when any of the other
surface cooking areas are being used. The Warming Element area
will not glow red when cycling on. However, its indicator light will
glow as long as the Warming Element area is too hot to touch.
■
Use only cookware and dishes recommended for oven and
cooktop use.
■
Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. When warming
baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover for moisture
to escape.
