Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Installation Instructions Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety Instructions Using the cooktop. Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model. Cooktop Controls Your surface units and controls are designed to give you an infinite choice of heat settings for surface unit cooking. At both OFF and HI the control clicks into position. When cooking in a quiet kitchen, you may hear slight clicking sounds-an indication that the heat settings you selected are being maintained. Switching heats to higher settings always results in a quicker change than switching to lower settings. How to Set the Controls Grasp the control knob and push down. Turn the knob to the desired heat setting. The control must be pushed in to set only from the OFF position. When the control is in any position other than OFF, it may be rotated without pushing in. Be sure you turn the control knob to OFF when you finish cooking. An indicator light will glow when a surface unit is on.
