NOTE: Radiant ebments have a Hmiter that allows the ebment to cycb
ON and OFF, even at the Hi setting, This heUpsto prevent damage to
the ceramic cooktop, Cycling at the Hi setting is normaUand can occur
if the cookware is too small for the radiant ebment or if the cookware
bottom is not fiat (Refer to page 13 for using correct cookware
instructions with the cooktop),
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 (See Fig,
1), Make sure the diameter of the pan matches
the diameter of the element outline on the
cooktop (See Fig, 2),
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the
cooktop to the cookware, Only fiat-bottom
cookware should be used, The type and size of
cookware, the number of surface elements in
use and the 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 E_ements
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,
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,
