[ WARNING j COOKTOPSAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

[] In the event of a fire, do not use water or [] To avoid spillover and fire, use a minimum amount

grease on fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely

with a well-fitted lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or a

foam-type fire extinguisher.

[] Never leave the surface units unattended at

medium or high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch

on fire.

[] Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed

to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.

of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.

[] Use the proper pan size - select cookware

having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.

[] To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of

flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center

of the range without extending over nearby surface units.

I WARNING 1RADIANT COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

[] Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,

earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop service; others may break

because of the sudden change in temperature.

[] Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass

surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.

[] Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the glass

cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and

create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

[] Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop

can be scratched with items such as knives, sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and

rivets on clothing.

Do not place or store items that can melt or catch

fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not

being used, If the cooktop is inadvertently turned on, they may ignite, Heat from the cooktop or oven vent after it is turned off may cause them to ignite also.

Use CERAMA BRYTE ® ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and CERAMA BRYTE ®Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop. Wait until the cooktop cools and the indicator light goes out before cleaning,

A wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can

cause steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface, Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label. NOTE: Sugary spills are an exception. They should be scraped off

while still hot using an oven mitt and a scraper.

See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section for detailed instructions.

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: This cooktop has Rapid Response surface units.

The cooktop will automatically heat up or cool down to the desired power level setting in the quickest time possible. While the surface units are on, you may not see them glow red during certain heat up or cool down

conditions. Cooktop temperatures increase with the number of

surface units that are on. With 3 or 4 units turned on, surface temperatures are high. Always use caution when touching the cooktop.

SURFACE

;:: : COORING

Never cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware.

Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on.

Home Canning Tips

Be sure the canner is centered over the surface unit. Make sure the canner is flat on the bottom.

To prevent burns from steam or heat, use caution when canning.

Use recipes and procedures from reputable sources. These are available from manufacturers such as Ball®and Kerr_

and the Department of Agriculture Extension Service.

Flat-bottomed canners are recommended. Use of water bath canners with rippled bottoms may extend the time

required to bring the water to a boil.

Cookware for Radiant Glass Cooktop

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Aluminum:

heavy weight recommended Good conductivity. Aluminum residues

sometimes appear as scratches on the cooktop but can be removed if cleaned

immediately. Because of its low melting point, thin weight aluminum should not be used.

Copper Bottom:

recommended Copper may leave residues which can

appear as scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the cooktop is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops. An overheated copper bottom pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the cooktop if not removed immediately.

Porcelain Enamel on Cast Iron:

recommended if bottom of pan is coated

NOTE: Follow all cookware manufacturer's recommendations when using any type of cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

Porcelain Enamel on Steel:

not recommended Heating empty pans can cause permanent

damage to cooktop glass. The enamel can melt and bond to the ceramic cooktop.

Glass-ceramic:

not recommended Poor performance. Will scratch the surface.

Stonewa re:

not recommended Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Cast Iron:

not recommended--unless designed specifically for glass cooktops

Poor conductivity and slow to absorb heat, Will scratch the cooktop surface,

Check pans for flat

bottoms by using a

straight edge.

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or

warped bottoms are

not recommended.

O O

F-

O O

For Best Results

[] Place only dry pans on the surface elements. Do not

place lids on the surface elements, particularly wet lids. Wet pans and lids may stick to the surface when cool.

[] Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of

wok will not heat on glass surface elements.

[] We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed

wok. They are available at your local retail store. The bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as

the surface element to ensure proper contact.

[] Some special cooking procedures require specific

cookware such as pressure cookers or deep-fat fryers. All cookware must have flat bottoms and be the

correct size.

Do not place wet pans on the glass cooktop.

_ w

Do not use woks with support rings on the glass cooktop.

Use flat-bottomed woks on the glass cooktop.

Element Cycling

Surface elements will cycle on and off to maintain the temperature you have selected. All radiant surface elements have a temperature limiter that protects the glass cooktop from getting too hot, this is normal. The temperature limiter may cycle the elements off more frequently if:

[] The pan boils dry. [] The pan bottom is not flat. [] The pan is off-center. [] There is no pan on the element.

Operating The Cooking Elements

Turn Burner(s) On: Touch and hold On/Off pad about half a second. A chime can be heard with each touch to

any pad. Power level can be selected in any of the following ways:

Selecting Cooktop Settings

Choose the element/burner that is best fit to the cookware size. Each element/burner on your new

cooktop has its own power levels ranging from low to high. Power level settings necessary for cooking will vary depending on the cookware being used, the type and quantity of food, and the desired outcome. In general use lower settings for melting, holding and simmering and use higher settings for heating quickly, searing and frying. When keeping foods warm confirm selected setting is sufficient to maintain food temperature above

140°F. Larger elements and elements marked "Keep

Warm" are not recommended for melting.

Hi is the highest power level, designed for large quantity rapid cooking and boiling. Hi will operate for a maximum of 10 minutes. Hi may be repeated after the initial 10

minute cycle by pressing the + pad. Hiz boilingquickly
