ACCUSIMMER
®
Feature
(on some models)
The ACCUSIMMER
®
feature setting is an adjustable heat setting
for more precise simmering.
The ACCUSIMMER
®
control knob has two settings: Simmer and
Normal. When the control is set on Normal, the element will
function as a single, a dual, or a triple element.
When the ACCUSIMMER control knob is set on Simmer, the
cooking area will not glow red. This is normal. Only the outer
heating ring will glow red on the triple circuit element when
medium or high simmer is selected.
To Use:
1. Turn the ACCUSIMMER
®
control knob to the SIMMER
position.
2. Push in and turn control knob to a setting between Low and
High setting.
Select Low for a low simmer or when using lids and medium
for a high simmer or when not using lids. Select either the
Single, Dual, or Triple Zone setting. Increase heat as
necessary to achieve desired simmer. (See “Dual/Triple-
Circuit Element” section.)
3. Turn the ACCUSIMMER
®
control knob back to the NORMAL
setting when finished cooking.
COOKTOP USE
Ceramic Glass
(on some models)
The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on.
Some parts of the surface cooking area may not glow red when
an element is on. This is normal operation. It may cycle on and off
to maintain the selected heat level.
It is normal for the surface of light colored ceramic glass to
appear to change color when surface cooking areas are hot. As
the glass cools, it will return to its original color.
Cleaning off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep
it free from stains and provide the most even heating. On
cooktops with light colored ceramic glass, soils and stains may
be more visible, and may require more cleaning and attention.
Cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are recommended. For
more information, see “General Cleaning” section.
■ Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a
heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the
cooktop.
■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the
cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped
between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass could
break when the lid is removed.
■ For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and
soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down
slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills
using a scraper while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills
are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop
and can cause pitting and permanent marks.
■ To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware
across the cooktop. Aluminum or copper bottoms and rough
finishes on cookware or bakeware could leave scratches or
marks on the cooktop.
■ Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers
on the cooktop. They could leave aluminum marks that
cannot be removed completely.
■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that
could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part
of the entire cooktop.
■ To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a
cutting board.
