A WARN ING instructions may result in fire, electric shock, serious injury or death.

( WARNING IGENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

[] Use this appliance for its intended purpose as

described in this Owner's Manual.

[] Be sure your appliance is properly installed and

grounded by a qualified installer in accordance with the provided installation instructions.

[] Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of

your range unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

[] Before performing any service, unplug the

cooktop or disconnect the power supply at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker.

[] Do not leave children alone--children should

not be left alone or unattended in an area where an appliance is in use. They should never be

allowed to climb, sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

[]CAUTION: Donotstoreitemsofinterest

to children above a cooktop--children climbing on the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.

[] Use only dry pot holders--moist or damp pot

holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface

units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.

[] Never use your appliance for warming or heating

the room.

[] Do not touch the surface elements. These

surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable

materials contact the surface units or areas nearby the surface units; allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other surfaces of the appliance may

become hot enough to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.

[] Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure

could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.

[] Cook meat and poultry thoroughly--meat to

at least an internal temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an internal temperature of

180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually

protects against foodborne illness.

[] Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and

exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting.

Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's

guide lines and safety standards, such as those published by the National Fire Protection

Association (NFPA), the AmericanSociety for

Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (ASHRAE) and the local code authorities, when applicable, install any make up (replacement) air system in accordance with local building

code requirements. Visit GEAppliances.com for available makeup air solutions

IA WARNING IKEEPFLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM

THE COOKTOP.

[] Do not store or use flammable material near the

cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.

[] Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while

using the appliance. These garments may ignite if they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.

[] Do not let cooking grease or other flammable

materials accumulate on or near the cooktop. Grease on the cooktop may ignite.

[] Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should

not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.

IA WARNING 1RADIANT COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

[] 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.

[] To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum

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

[] Use 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.

[] 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.

[] 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.

[] When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn

the fan on.

[] Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass

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

[] Avoid scratching or impacting the glass cooktop.

Doing so may lead to broken glass. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as knives,

sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.

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

[] 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 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.

NOTE: Sugar 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.

[] Read and follow all instructions and warnings on

the cleaning cream label.

Surface Burners

Radiant Surface Units

The control for the radiant surface unit can be set anywhere between LO and HI for an unlimited number of heat settings. With the infinite switch the coil cycles on

and off to maintain your selected control setting. To bring liquids to a boil faster, use a lid to cover the pan.

The control knob must be pushed down and turned from the OFF position. When the control knobs are in any position other than off, they may be turned without pushing down.

Be sure you turn the control knob off when you finish cooking. You will feel a click at the OFF position.

About the radiant surface units

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 from the oven or surface on the glass surface when the surface is cool.

Even after the surface units are turned off, the glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue cooking. To avoid over-cooking, remove pans from the surface units when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until it has cooled completely.

[] Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using

the cleaning cream or full strength white vinegar.

[] Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film

on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will remove this discoloration.

[] Don't store heavy items above the cooktop. If they

drop onto the cooktop, they can cause damage.

[] Do not use the surface as a cutting board.

The surface unit ON indicator light will glow when any

surface unit is on. The HOT surface indicator light will glow when the glass

surface is hot and will remain on until the surface has cooled.

Cookware for Radiant Glass Cooktop

i.n

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.

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:

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.

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.

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

For Best Results

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

place lids on the surface elements, particularly wet lids.

[] 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 fiat-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, deep-fat fryers, etc. All cookware must have fiat bottoms and be the

correct size.

[] Avoid allowing foods to boil dry as some cookware

may stick to the cooking surface, causing permanent damage to the cooktop.

Do not place wet pans on the glass cooktop.

Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic

Special care should be taken when removing hot substances to avoid permanent damage of the glass surface. Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy, syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your cooktop (not covered by the warranty) unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when removing hot substances.

Be sure to use a new, sharp razor scraper. Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

1. Turn off all surface burners and, with an oven mitt, remove hot pans and grates.

2. Wearing an oven mitt: a. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper

(CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Scraper) to move the spill to a cool area on the cooktop.

b. Remove the spill with paper towels.

2. If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black discoloration on the cooktop. This should be removed

immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.

,& WARNING: Carefully check the bottom of

pans for roughness that would scratch the cooktop.

3. Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.

4. Don't use the surface units again until all of the

residue has been completely removed.

NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass surface has already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.

Ingeneral, the useofflexible ducting isdiscouraged because it can cause severelyrestricted airflow. However,

ifthe blower outlet and the floor or wall duct location do NOTalign well,then flexible METALducting can be usedto

adapt to anoffset. Goodalignment without use of flexible ducting isbest.

NOTE:

• Donot exceedthe maximum recommended offset of 6".

• Donot allow the flexible ducting to kinkor collapse.

• Dostretch the flexibleducting as much as possibleto eliminate as much ofthe corrugation as possible.
