About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop

The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located

below the surface of the glass. The design of the ceramic

cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath.

Make sure the diameter of the pan matches the diameter of the

element outline on the cooktop. Heat is transferred up through

the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only flat-bottom

cookware should be used. The type and size of cookware, the

number of surface elements in use and their settings, are all

factors that will affect the amount of heat that will spread to

areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the

elements may become hot enough to cause burns.

About the Radiant Surface Elements

The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the

temperature rises, the 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 efficient cooking, turn off the

element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will

allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.

Locations of the Radiant Surface Elements and Controls

Your range is equipped with radiant surface burners with

different wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and

in larger volumes increases as the element wattage increases.

The radiant surface elements are located on the cooktop as

follows: (Figure 9)

• Two smaller 7 inch radiant elements and one 6 inch element

located in the rear of the cooktop.

• One triple 6, 9, or 12 inch radiant element located at the

right front position.

• One 9 inch TURBO BOIL (FLEX) radiant element located at

the left front position.

Important note: (White glass cooktops only) Due to the high

intensity of heat generated by the surface elements, the glass

surface will turn light green when the element is first turned off.

This phenomenon is normal and the glass will come back to its

original white color after it has completely cooled down.

Important: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass

cooktop cleaning in the “Care and Cleaning” section and

“Solutions to Common Problems” checklist section of this Use

and Care Guide.

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 glass cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal

and can also occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant

element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.

Use “Suggested settings for various cooking needs” below to

determine the correct setting for the kind of food you are

preparing. The Simmer settings are used to simmer and keep

larger quantities of foods warm such as stews and soups. The

lower Simmer settings are ideal for delicate foods and melting

chocolate or butter.
