BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Element On and Hot Surface Indicator Lights Types of ceramic cooktop elements Some models have an ELEMENT ON indicator light that will turn on when one or more elements are turned on. ELEMENT ON Figure 3: Element On indicator light The circles on the ceramic glass cooktop outline the size and type of element underneath. The elements on your cooktop depend on the model. • A single radiant element has one circle. • A dual radiant element (some models) has two circles. The dual radiant element may be set using only the smaller inner element or both inner and outer elements may be set to heat together for a larger surface. • Dual elements allow more flexibility with the size of cookware. A quick glance at this indicator light when cooking is finished is an easy check to be sure all surface elements are turned off. The HOT SURFACE indicator light will turn on when the burner is hot enough to cause burns and will remain on after the burner is turned off until the surface has cooled to a safe temperature. HOT SURFACE Figure 5: Single and dual elements • A Quick Boil element (some models) is designed to quickly heat and cook large amounts of food in large pots. Quick Boil elements are clearly labeled on the cooktop. Figure 4: Hot Surface indicator light QUICK BOIL Figure 6: Quick Boil element 10
