that the items are infrequently used and can be safely stored in an area
subjected to heat. Temperatures may be unsafe for items such as volatile
liquids, cleaners, or aerosol sprays.
About the radiant surface elements
The temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the radiant
element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle
on and off. The heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and
consistent heat during the off cycle. For efcient cooking, turn off the element
several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to
complete the cooking process.
NOTE
Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON and OFF, even
at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at
the HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant
element or if the cookware bottom is not at.
Location of the radiant surface elements and controls
The radiant control knobs operate the radiant surface elements on the cooktop as
shown below.
• Comes on when the unit is turned on or hot to the touch.
• Stays on even after the unit is turned off.
• Glows until the unit is cooled to approximately 150 °F.
NOTE
When you operate a knob, a beep sounds once.
Cooking areas
• The cooking areas on your range are identied by permanent circles on the
glass cooking surface. For the most efcient cooking, t the pan size to the
element size.
• Pans should not extend more than 1/2” to 1” beyond the cooking area.
• When a control is turned on, a glow can be seen through the glass cooking surface. The element will cycle on and off to maintain the preset heat setting,
even at high settings.
• For more information on selecting proper types of cookware, refer to the section “Using the proper cookware” on page 23.
How to set the appliance for cooktop cooking
CAUTION

Pan is smaller than element.
Choosing the proper cookware
What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is
transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom.
• ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause the
aluminum to darken. (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting.).
If aluminum pans are slid across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal
marks that resemble scratches. Remove these marks as soon as the cooktop
cools down.
• COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal
marks on ceramic glass (see above).
• STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is
durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
• CAST IRON - A poor conductor; retains heat very well. Cooks evenly once
cooking temperature is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic
cooktops.
• ENAMELWARE - Heating characteristics will vary depending on the base
material. Porcelain enamel coating must be smooth to avoid scratching
ceramic cooktops.
• GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces
because it may scratch the surface.
• Clean the cooktop before using it for the rst time.
• Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep your cooktop
looking good and can prevent damage.
• If a spillover occurs while you are cooking, immediately clean the spill from
the cooking area while it is hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using
extreme care, wipe the spill with a clean dry towel.
• Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the cooktop trim for a
long period of time.
• Do not use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads which will scratch the
cooktop.
• Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or other cleansers not specically
recommended for use on a glass-ceramic surface.
Preventing marks and scratches
• Do not use glass cookware. It may scratch the cooktop.
• Do not place a trivet or wok ring between the cooktop and the pan. These
items can mark or scratch the cooktop.
• Make sure the cooktop and the pan bottom are clean.
• Do not slide metal pans across the cooktop.
Preventing stains
• Do not use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the cooktop surface. A lm
will remain, which may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is
heated.
• Continuously cooking on a soiled surface can result in a permanent stain.
Preventing other damage
• Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the
hot cooktop. Should this happen, clean immediately.
• Do not let a pan boil dry as this will damage the cooktop and the pan.
• Do not use the cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
• Do not cook food directly on the cooktop. Always use the proper cookware.

Centering the baking pans in the oven as
much as possible will produce better results.
If baking with more than one pan, place the
pans so each has at least 1˝ to 1½˝ of air
space around it.
When baking on a single oven rack, place
the oven rack in position 3 or 4.
See the gure on the left.
When baking cakes and cookies on multiple
racks, place the oven racks in positions 2
The oven has two racks.
Each rack has stops that need to be placed correctly on the supports. These stops
will keep the rack from coming completely out.
REMOVING THE RACKS
