IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result
in fire, electrical shock, serious injury or death.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Use this cooktop only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
• Be sure your cooktop 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 cooktop unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing
should be performed by 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 the cooktop is in use. They
should never be allowed to climb, sit or stand
on any part of the cooktop.
• 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 cooktop for warming or
heating the room.
• Do not touch 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 elements or areas nearby the surface
elements; allow sufficient time for cooling first.
• 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.
CAUTION
•
interest to children above the cooktop—
children climbing on the cooktop to reach
items could be seriously injured.
Do not store items of
• 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.
KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE COOKTOP
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
• Do not store or use flammable materials
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 cooktop. These
garments may ignite if they contact hot
surfaces causing severe burns.
• Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate in or near
the cooktop. Grease on the cooktop may
ignite.
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
4 49-80762-1
COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• In the event of a fire, do not use water or
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 foamtype 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.
• To avoid spillover and fire, use a minimum
amount 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.
RADIANT 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
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 Cooktop
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.
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.
Do not slide cookware across the cooktop
because it can scratch the glass—the glass is
scratch-resistant, not scratch proof.
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.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give
good performance on glass cooktops.
NOTE: Follow all cookware manufacturer’s recommendations when using
any type of cookware on the ceramic cooktop.
Recommended
Stainless Steel
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:
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.
Avoid/Not
Recommended
Enamel (painted) on Steel:
Heating empty pans can cause
permanent damage to cooktop
glass. The enamel can melt and
bond to the ceramic cooktop.
Glass-ceramic:
Poor performance. Will scratch the
surface.
Stoneware:
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.
Enamel (painted) on
Cast Iron:
recommended if bottom of pan is
coated
Check pans for flat
bottoms by using a
straight edge.
Pans with rounded,
curved, ridged or
warped bottoms are
not recommended.

• 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 flatbottomed 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.
Do not use woks with support

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
