COOKTOP SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety
messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."
These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
injury to persons, or damage when using the cooktop, follow
basic precautions, including the following:
® CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in
cabinets above a cooktop - Children climbing on the
cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.
m Proper Installation - Be sure your cooktop is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
m Never Use Your Cooktop for Warming or Heating the
Room.
m Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children should not be left
alone or unattended in area where cooktop is in use. They
should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the
cooktop.
m Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the cooktop.
m User Servicing - Do not repair or replace any part of the
cooktop unless specifically recommended in the manual. All
other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
m Storage on Cooktop - Flammable materials should not be
stored near surface units.
m Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires - Smother fire or flame
or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
m Use Only Dry Potholders - Moist or clamp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let
potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel
or other bulky cloth.
m DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR
UNITS - Surface units may be hot even though they are
clark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch,
or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface
units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time
to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces
facing the cooktop.
m Use Proper Pan Size - This cooktop is equipped with one
or more surface units of different size. Select utensils
having fiat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit
heating element. The use of undersized utensils will
expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact
and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
m Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat
Settings - Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite.
m Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature.
m Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Units - To reduce the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a
utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and
does not extend over adjacent surface units.
m Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop - If cooktop should
break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact
a qualified technician immediately.
m Clean Cooktop With Caution - If a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to
avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
For unite with ventilating hood -
m Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
m When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
For units with coil elements -
m Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in
Place - Absence of these pans or bowls during
cooking may subject wiring or components
underneath to damage.
m Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
unit drip bowls, except as suggested in the manual.
Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of
electric shock, or fire.
m Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements - Heating
elements should never be immersed in water.

COOKTOP USE
Fire Hazard
Turn off all controls when done cooking.
Failure to do so can result in death or fire.
The cooktop touch controls offer a variety of heat settings for
optimal cooking results. For normal surface cooking element
operation, the cooktop touch controls can be set anywhere
between SIMMER and HIGH.
When melting foods such as chocolate or butter, or when
proofing bread, the right front and left front surface cooking areas
can be set to MELT for minimal element operation.
For maximum element operation, all cooktop touch controls can
be set to HIGH when bringing liquids to a fast and rapid boil.
Touch the "down" arrow to immediately reach the HIGH setting.
NOTE: Where 240 V installation is not available, this cooktop will
automatically adjust to 208 V operation.
To Use:
1. Touch ON/OFF
2. Touch the "up" or "down" arrow to increase or decrease
power.
3. To choose a power level between HIGH and SIMMER, touch
and hold either arrow until the desired level has been
reached.
4. When finished cooking, touch ON/OFF to turn surface
cooking area(s) off individually, or touch ALL OFF to turn all
elements off at the same time.
Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or
after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
The Warm Function is available on the rear elements, and can be
used to keep cooked foods warm, and may be used whether or
not the other surface cooking zones are in use.
It is not recommended for heating cold foods. When the Warm
Function is in use, it will not glow red like the cooking zones, but
the indicator light will glow on the control panel.
Use only cookware and dishes recommended for oven and
cooktop use, and that have flat bottoms to make direct contact
with the cooktop surface. Use pot holders or oven mitts to
remove cookware.
Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. Do not use plastic
wrap to cover food, as it may melt onto the cooktop surface.
When warming baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover
for moisture to escape.
Food quality may deteriorate if food is kept on the Warm Function
for an extended period of time. For best results, keep food warm
for no longer than 30 to 45 minutes.
To Use:
1. Touch ON/OFE
2. Touch the "up" arrow once for WARM.
3. When finished cooking, touch ON/OFF to turn off surface
cooking area.
The "All Off" function of the cooktop touch control turns off all
surface cooking areas that are in use at the same time.
The "Locked" function of the cooktop touch control averts
unintended use of the surface cooking areas. When the cooktop
is locked out, the surface cooking areas cannot be turned on by
the cooktop touch controls.
To Lock Cooktop: Press and hold the ALL OFF LOCKED keypad
for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, a light will glow red above the
"ALL OFF LOCKED" indicator, indicating that the cooktop touch
controls are in the lockout position.
To Unlock Cooktop: Press and hold the ALL OFF LOCKED
keypad for 5 seconds.
The Melt Function is available on both the right front and left front
elements, and is ideal for melting foods such as chocolate and
butter, at a low temperature.
To Use:
1. Touch ON/OFE
2. Touch the "up" arrow once for MELT.
3. When finished cooking, touch ON/OFF to turn surface
cooking area off.
The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It
will cycle on and off, at all settings, to maintain the selected heat
level.
Wiping off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it
free from stains and provide the most even heating. For more
information, see "General Cleaning" section.
• Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a
heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the
cooktop.
• Do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools,
air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop,
and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.
Clean up sugary spills and soils as soon as hot surface
indicator light goes off. If spills and soils are allowed to cool
down on the surface, they can adhere to the cooktop and
cause pitting and permanent marks.
• Lift pots and pans on and off the cooktop. Sliding pots, pans
and skillets that have aluminum or copper bases could leave
permanent scratches and marks on the cooktop.
• Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers
on the cooktop. It could leave aluminum marks that cannot
be removed completely.
• Do not allow objects that could melt, like plastic or aluminum
foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.

A. Surface cooking area

C. V2"(1.3 cm) maximum overhang
Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and
energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or
dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor
cooking results.
Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler,
no space or light should be visible between it and the
cookware.
Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small
expansion channels can be used.
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits
when heated.
• Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches.
This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
• Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking
area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not
extend more than _/2"(1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking
area or element.
• Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or
surface burners at the same time.
• On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.
• For more information, contact your local agricultural
department. Companies that manufacture home canning
products can also offer assistance.
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a
well-fitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper
may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used
as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or
grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has
the same characteristics as its base material. For example,
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the
properties of aluminum.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS
Aluminum • Heats quickly and evenly.
• Suitable for all types of cooking.
• Medium or heavy thickness is best for
most cooking tasks.
Cast iron • Heats slowly and evenly.
• Good for browning and frying.
• Maintains heat for slow cooking.
Ceramic or • Follow manufacturer's instructions.
Ceramic glass • Heats slowly, but unevenly.
• Ideal results on low to medium heat
settings.
Copper • Heats very quickly and evenly.
Earthenware • Follow manufacturer's instructions.
• Use on low heat settings.
Porcelain • See stainless steel or cast iron.

COOKTOP CARE
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the oven and cooktop are cool. Always follow label instructions STAINLESS STEEL (on some models)
on cleaning products.
Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless To avoid damage to stainless steel, do not use soap-filled
otherwise noted, scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, Cooktop Polishing Creme,
steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths or some paper towels.
