For Models With a Radiant Glass Cooktop
The radiant cooktop features heating units
beneath a smooth glass surface.
NOTE:
A slight odor is normal when
a new cooktop is used for the first time.
It is caused by the heating of new parts
and insulating materials and will disappear
in a short time.
NOTE:
On models with light-colored glass
cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones
to change color when hot or cooling down.
This is temporary and will disappear as the
glass cools to room temperature.
The surface unit will cycle on and off to
maintain your selected control setting.
It is safe to place hot cookware on the
glass surface even when the cooktop
is cool.
Even after the surface units are turned off,
the glass cooktop retains enough heat to
continue cooking. To avoid overcooking,
remove pans from the surface units when
the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything
on the surface unit until it has cooled
completely.
Do not slide cookware across the cooktop because
it can scratch the glass—the glass is scratch-resistant,
not scratchproof.

Water stains (mineral deposits) are
removable using the cleaning cream or
