SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Single Radiant Surface Elements (some models) The cooktop has two or three single radiant surface elements: the left rear position, the right rear position. The left rear element may also be used with the Bridge element. CAUTION Do not allow aluminum foil, empty glass/porcelain cookware or any material that can melt to make contact with the ceramic cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop they may damage the ceramic cooktop. To Operate the Single Radiant Surface Elements: 1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface element. 2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting (See Figure 5). Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the surface heating area. 3. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Figure 5: Control knob shown is typical only CAUTION Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The Hot Element (HE) message or the hot surface indicator light will turn on and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has turned off. The message may remain on even though the controls are turned off. NOTE The surface Element On indicator lights will glow when one or more elements are turned on. A quick glance at these indicator lights when cooking is finished is an easy check to be sure all surface elements are turned off. CAUTION Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements. 12
