Your stove features the best possible cooking surface, easy
maintenance, and the latest design. The cooktop areas of
your stove are identified by permanent patterns etched in
the top itself.
Your existing utensils (pots & pans) should work with a
ceramic glass burner. Preferably your utensils should have
a slightly concave or flat bottom. Glass cookware may be
used but metal utensils conduct heat the best. Use cook-
ware that fits the element size. This will assist in maxi-
mum heating efficiency and ensure the shortest boiling
times. Check to make sure the cook top panel and the
utensil bottom is dry before using. This will help prevent
stratches and stains.
The cook top controls are called infinite controls. These
controls start at low and increase heat output as the con-
trol is turned clockwise. Normally there is a “hot” indica-
tor light. When lit, a portion of the cooktop is still too hot
to touch. Place only cooking pots and pans on the top
while the “hot” light is lit.
Your state of the art stove features ceramic glass top ele-
ments. Below the glass top is a series of heating coils. The
design of these burners directs the heat up through the
ceramic glass providing an efficient cooking surface.
Outside the immediate burner area the ceramic glass is at
a much cooler temperature even when cooking at high
temperatures.
There is a set of thermal limiters in the burner that keeps
the element from overheating. These limiters will reduce
the wattage to the element if a pan boils over if an im-
proper utensil is used or if no utensil is used at all.
Before using the stove for the first time use a recom-
mended type cleaner such as (Cerama-Brite Cook Top
Cleaner) on the cook top. The process will leave the stove
surface with a clean, shiny, and most importantly a pro-
tective surface.
Always remove food spills, grease splatters and residues
from utensils. You can buy a special scraper just for glass
cook top use. Angle the blade at 45 degress to remove
cooking residue. This angle assists in preventing the blade
from scratching the surface. Change the blade out as
needed. Then use a paper towel to clean the surface or a
clean soft cloth and a recommended cleaner. After using
any cleaner wipe the cook top with a clean damp cloth to
remove any cleaner residue build-up. Wipe dry.
