AFTER COOKING
CAUTION
• Do not touch the surface units until they have cooled down.
• The surface may be still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched
before it has cooled down suciently.
• Immediately clean spills on the cooking area to prevent a tough cleaning chore later.
• If cabinet storage is provided directly above the cooking surface, make sure 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 o. The heating element retains
enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the o cycle. For ecient cooking,
turn o the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to
complete the cooking process.
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 flat.

Cooking areas
• The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent circles on the glass cooking
surface. For the most ecient cooking, fit the pan size to the element size.
• Pans should not extend more than ½” 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 o 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 21.

Using the warming center
The warming center, located in the back center of the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food
at serving temperature.
• The surface warmer will not glow red like the cooking elements.
• Do not warm food on the warming center for more than two hours.
CAUTION
• Use only cookware and dishes recommended as safe for oven and cooktop use.
• Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the warming center as
cookware and plates will be hot.
• When warming pastries and breads, the cover should have an opening to allow
moisture to escape.
• Do not use plastic wrap to cover foods. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very
dicult to clean.
• Food should be kept in its container and covered with a lid or aluminum foil to
maintain food quality.
• Always start with hot food. Eating uncooked or cold food placed on the warming
center could result in illness.

USING THE PROPER COOKWARE
Using the right cookware can prevent many problems, such as uneven cooking or extended
cooking times. Using the proper pans will reduce cooking times and cook food more evenly.
CORRECT INCORRECT
Flat bottom and straight sides.
• Tight fitting lids.
• Weight of handle does not tilt
Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware.
pan.
• Pan is well balanced.
• Pan size matches the amount
of food to be prepared
and the size of the surface
element.
• Made of a material that
conducts heat well.
• Always match pot diameter to
element surface diameter.
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 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 glass.
Curved and warped pan

Pan overhangs element by more
than one-half inch.
Pan is smaller than element.

PROTECTING THE SMOOTHTOP SURFACE
Cleaning
• Clean the cooktop before using it for the first 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 specifically 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.
SURFACE COOKING
Preventing stains
• Do not use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the cooktop surface. A film 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.

CONVECTION BAKING
rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved.
Breads and pastries brown more evenly.
Tips for convection baking
The amount of time you save will vary depending on the amount and type of food you are
cooking. When baking cookies or biscuits, you should use pans with no sides or very low sides
to allow the heated air to circulate around the food. Using a pan with a dark finish will allow faster
cooking times.
When using convection baking with a single rack, place the oven rack in position 4. If cooking on
multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 5 or positions 3, 5 and 6.
When baking a cake, using the bake mode will produce better results.
