Cooking areas
The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent circles on the glass cooking •
surface. For the most efficient cooking, fit the pan size to the element size.
Pans should not extend more than ½” to 1” beyond the cooking area.•
When a control is turned on, a glow can be seen through the glass cooking surface. • The
element will cycle on and off to maintain the preset heat setting, even at high settings.
For more information on selecting proper types of cookware, refer to the section “Using the •
proper cookware” on page 19.
