Using the surface units. Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model. Be sure you turn the control knob to OFF when you finish cooking. How to Set Push the knob in and turn in either direction to the setting you want. At both OFF and HI the control clicks into position. You may hear slight clicking sounds during cooking, indicating the control is keeping the power level you set. A surface unit ON indicator light will glow when any surface unit is on. GEAppliances.com Not over 1s. Surface Cookware Tips Use medium- or heavy-weight cookware. Aluminum cookware conducts heat faster than other metals. Cast-iron and coated castiron cookware are slow to absorb heat, but generally cook evenly at low to medium heat settings. Steel pans may cook unevenly if not combined with other metals. For best cooking results, pans should be flat on the bottom. Match the size of the saucepan to the size of the surface unit. The pan should not extend over the edge of the surface unit more than 1". Use only flat-bottomed woks. Wok Cooking We recommend that you use only a flatbottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store. Do not use woks that have support rings. Use of these types of woks, with or without the ring in place, can be dangerous. Placing the ring over the surface unit will cause a build-up of heat that will damage the porcelain cooktop. Do not try to use such woks without the ring. You could be seriously burned if the wok tipped over. Deep Fat Frying Do not overfill cookware with fat that may spill over when adding food. Frosty foods bubble vigorously. Watch food frying at high temperatures. Keep range and hood clean from grease. 7

generally cook evenly at low to medium heat
settings. Steel pans may cook unevenly if not
combined with other metals.
For best cooking results, pans should be flat on

We recommend that you use only a flat-
bottomed wok. They are available at your local
retail store.
Do not use woks that have support rings. Use
of these types of woks, with or without the ring

Placing the ring over the surface unit will
cause a build-up of heat that will damage the
porcelain cooktop. Do not try to use such woks
without the ring. You could be seriously burned
if the wok tipped over.

Deep Fat Frying
Do not overfill cookware with fat that may spill
over when adding food. Frosty foods bubble
vigorously.
