IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or

•

damp 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.

DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS

•

OR AREAS NEAR UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark 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 cook-top and surfaces facing the cook-top.

Use Proper Pan Size – The range is

•

equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat 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.

Never Leave Surface Units

•

Unattended at High Heat Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

Hot surface indicator lights

The Hot Surface Indicator Lights on the

HOT CHAUD

(“CHAUD” is French for “HOT”)

will glow.

Control setting guide

For best results, start cooking at the high setting; then turn the control knob down to continue cooking.

SETTING RECOMMENDED USE

HI • To start foods cooking.

• To bring liquids to a boil.

6MED HI5 • To hold a rapid boil.

• To fry chicken or

pancakes.

MED • For gravy, pudding, and

icing.

• To cook large amounts

of vegetables.

3MED LO2 • To keep food cooking

after starting it on a higher setting.

LO • To keep food warm until

ready to serve.

U sing and Caring for Your Cooktop

Using the dual-size surface cooking area

(some models)

You can use the right rear surface cooking area as either a small diameter, lower wattage element or large diameter, full wattage element.

Use both elements for larger pans

Use small element for smaller pans

To use the small element (for smaller pans):

• Push in and turn the control knob to the

left (counterclockwise) to the desired setting in the area marked “SINGLE.”

To use both elements (for larger pans):

• Push in and turn the control knob to the

right (clockwise) to the desired setting in the area marked “DUAL.”

NOTE: You can turn the control knob in

either direction to reach “OFF.”

The ceramic glass cooktop

Standard elements

Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop is almost the same as cooking on coil elements. There are, however, a few differences:

• The surface cooking area will glow red

when the element is turned on. You will see the element cycling on and off – even on the HI setting – to help the area stay at the temperature setting you choose.

• Wiping off the cooktop before and after

each use will help keep the surface free from stains and give you the most even heating. See “Cleaning the cooktop” in the “Caring for Your Range” section.

• Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.

• Lift pots and pans onto and off of the

cooktop. Sliding pots and pans on the cooktop could leave marks that are difficult to remove or could leave permanent marks.

• Do not cook popcorn that comes in

prepackaged aluminum containers on the cooktop. The container could leave aluminum marks on the cooktop that cannot be removed completely.

• Do not use the cooktop as a cutting board.

• Do not allow anything that could melt,

such as plastic or aluminum foil, to come in contact with the cooktop while it is hot.

• Dropping a heavy or hard object on the

cooktop could crack it. Be careful when using heavy skillets and large pots. Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop.

• Sugary spills and soils can cause pitting.

Cookware tips

• Use the correct cookware to prevent

damage to the surface cooking area, cooktop, wiring, and surrounding areas.

• If the cookware is too small for the

surface cooking area or the bottom is not flat, the surface cooking area could stay glowing red for an extended length of time causing damage to the range.

• If you start cooking on high, it is impor-

tant to turn the control down to a lower setting to complete cooking.

• Flat-bottomed cookware, including woks,

canners, and teakettles, will provide better contact with the surface cooking area and provide the best cooking results.

• Warped, dented, and ribbed-bottomed

cookware can result in uneven cooking due to incomplete contact with the surface cooking area.

• Cookware that has been designed with

slightly indented bottoms or small expansion channels can be used.

• Choose medium to heavy gauge

(thickness) cookware.

• The pan material (type of metal or

glass) affects how quickly and evenly the pan heats.

• Check for rough spots on the bottom of

your metal or glass cookware which could scratch the ceramic glass surface.

• Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans

are clean and dry before using them. Food and water particles left on the bottoms can leave deposits on the cooktop when it is heated.

Home canning information

• Use flat-bottomed canner/pan.

Canners with rippled or ridged bottoms do not allow good contact with the surface cooking area.

• Use the largest surface cooking area

and center the canner/pan on it. A large diameter canner/pan, if not centered correctly, can trap heat and cause damage to the cooktop.

• Do not place your canner/pan on

2 surface cooking areas at the same time. Too much heat will build up and damage the cooktop.

• Start with hot water. This reduces the

time the control is set on high. Reduce the heat setting to the lowest position needed to keep water boiling.

• When canning for long periods of

time, alternate use of the surface cooking areas between batches to allow the areas to cool down, or prepare food in small batches.

• Refer to your canner manual for specific

instructions.

NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware, or

cookware which has boiled dry, on a hot surface cooking area. The cookware could overheat, causing damage to the cookware or surface cooking area.

U sing and Caring for Your Cooktop

Energy saving tips

Although the energy used for cooking is usually a very small percentage of the total energy used in the home, cooking energy can be used efficiently. Here are some tips to help you save energy when using your cooking product:

Cooktop

• Match the pan to the surface cooking

area size.

• The pan should have a flat bottom,

straight sides, and a well-fitting lid.

• To help shorten your cooking time, use

the least amount of liquid possible.

• Preheat your pots and pans only when

recommended and for the shortest time possible.

• Start your food on a higher heat setting,

then turn the control to a lower setting to finish cooking.

• Place a filled pan on the surface cooking

area before turning it on.

Oven

• “Oven peeking” can make cooking

times longer and affect the food quality.

• Rely on a timer to keep track of

cooking time.

• Plan your meals for the most efficient use

of the oven by cooking more than one food at a time, or baking while the oven is still hot after cooking a meal.

• It is not necessary to preheat the oven

when broiling or roasting, unless your recipe recommends doing so.

Caring for your cooktop

Your cooktop is designed for easy care. However, you need to maintain your ceramic glass cooktop differently than you would standard electric open-coil elements. Foods spilled directly on the cooktop will not burn off as on open-coil elements. Because of this, you should keep the surface dust free and soil free before heating.

NIGHNIGH

EASYEASYCONVECTCONVECT

REARREAR

Your cooktop has been prepolished at the factory for improved protection and easier cleaning. The Cooktop Polishing Creme included with your range, paper towels or a sponge, and a single-edge razor blade in the holder are all you need to clean your cooktop. For proper cleaning methods, please review “Cleaning tips” later in this section.

E K A B

BAKE

FRONTFRONT

Follow them each time you use your cooktop. This will ensure you get the best performance out of your cooktop, as well as preserve that uniquely elegant look.

NOTE: Let cooktop cool before cleaning. To avoid damaging the cooktop, follow

these instructions:

• Remove sugar spills and soils from the

cooktop while the surface is still warm to avoid pitting on the surface.

• Marks from sliding metal pans on the

cooktop are difficult to remove completely. Use cooktop polishing creme to clean the area. Several applications may be necessary.

• Do not use steel wool, plastic cleaning

pads, gritty powdered cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover, ammonia, or glass cleaning products with ammonia. These could damage the cooktop surface.

U sing and Caring for Your Cooktop

Cleaning tips

What to use:

• Cooktop Polishing Creme (included

with your range) with paper towel or clean, damp sponge – This creme has

been developed especially for cleaning and protecting your cooktop. When using the creme, follow the instructions on the container.

• Razor scraper in a holder (not included

with your range) – Use to remove cooked-on soils from your ceramic glass cooktop. To avoid scratches, keep the razor blade as flat against the cooktop as possible. Store

razor blades out of reach of children.

Steps to follow:

1. Most spills can be wiped off easily using

a paper towel or clean, damp sponge as soon as the Hot Surface Indicator Light goes off.

2. For stubborn spills, rub Cooktop

Polishing Creme into cooked-on soil using a paper towel. If some soil remains, leave some creme on the spot(s) and follow Step 3.

3. Carefully scrape spots with the razor

scraper.

4. Finish by polishing entire cooktop

with Cooktop Polishing Creme and a paper towel.

How to keep your cooktop looking like new:

IF THERE ARE Sugary spills

and soils (such

as jellies and candy syrups)

Dark streaks, specks, and discoloration

Metal marks

(from copper and aluminum pans)

Tiny scratches or abrasions

NOTE: Always wipe your cooktop with clean

water and dry it well after using the cleanser to prevent streaking or staining.

WHAT TO DO

To prevent pitting on the cooktop, wipe up with a paper towel or clean, damp sponge

while the ceramic glass surface is still warm. Remove spills

as soon as possible after they occur.

Use the Cooktop Polishing Creme or a nonabrasive cleanser with a damp paper towel or sponge.

Use the Cooktop Polishing Creme with a damp paper towel or sponge before heating the cooktop again. If heated before cleaning, metal marks may not come off.

Scratches and abrasions do not affect cooking. After many cleanings, they will become less visible. To prevent scratches and abrasions, use the Cooktop Polishing Creme regularly.

To order Cooktop Polishing Creme (Part No. 3184477), call 1-800-422-1230.

You will hear a recording. Follow the steps to place an order.
