Solid Element
Surface Units
Solid element surface units are made of heavy cast-iron to provide even
cooking. Each surface unit has a built-in protective limiter. The limiter senses
uneven cooking temperatures and automatically reduces the heat setting.
The limiter will sense uneven heat when a pan boils dn/, when a pan does not
have a flat bottom, or when a pan is removed and the surface unit is left on.
Solid elements hold heat longer than conventional surface units. For best
cooking results, use a high setting for only a very short period of time. Then
use a lower setting to complete the cooking. You may want to turn the solid
element OFF a few minutes before you are finished cooking.
CAUTION: Solid elements stay hot for a long time. Do not use the Hi
sefflng for long periods of time or leave pans on hot elements when
cooking is done. Burned tood and damage to the cookware could
result.
