Using the solid element
surface unit module
Solid element surface units are made of
heavy cast-iron to provide even cooking.
Each surface unit has a built-in protective
limiter as a safety feature.
The limiter senses uneven cooking
temperatures when:
l
A pan
boils dry.
l
A pan
is removed and the surface unit is
left on.
l
The bottom of the pan
is too large or too
small for the surface unit. This WIII result In
longer cooking times.
l
The bottom of the pan
is rounded,
warped, ribbed or dented and does not
make full contact with the surface unit.
1 he limiter will automatically reduce the heat
I( vel to provide even cooking temperatures
aid to protect the surface unit.
NOTE:
Solid elements stay hot for a long
ti ne. Do not use the HI setting for long
p ?riods of time or leave pans on hot ele-
rr ents when cooking is done. Burned food
a id damage to the cookware could result.
Use a lower setting to complete the cooking
ar\d turn the solid element surface unit off a
fs w minutes before you finish cooking.
Before placing a pan on solid element
sluface units for the first time,
heat on HI
st!tting for five minutes. The surface units
w II give off smoke as the protective coating,
afrplied at the factory, finishes bonding to
th a surface.

t Jrned on. You will see the element cycling
on (glowing red) and off - even on HI
: etting - to maintain the proper tempera-
t Jre setting you have selected.
