Setting Surface Controls Operating the Dual Surface Radiant Element The cooktop is equipped with a dua! radiant surface element located at the right front (See Figure 1) position. The unit control knob has a dual set of graduations, For small utensils use the right side of the control knob (Figure 2); for larger utensils the left (Figure 3). Only the inner surface of the unit heats when using it for small utensils; the whole surface heats for large utensils, You may switch between settings at any time during cooking, To Operate the Dual Surface Element: 1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface element. 2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See Figure 2) for smaller cookware or clockwise (See Figure 3) for larger cookware. 3. Turn the knob to adjust the setting if needed. 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. 4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The Surface Indicator light will come on when the control knob is turned on and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level, The light may remain on even though the controls are turned OFR Note: See previous page for table of recommended control settings, Figure 2 Single Setting Figure 1 Figure 3 Dual Setting y_ iiJiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii_iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiWiiiii Dual Radiant heating areas on ceramic smooth top (shown in black)
