NOTES:
WARMING CENTER:
All foods should be covered with
a lid or aluminum foil to maintain
food quality.
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 on to the
surface and be very difficult to
clean.
Use only cookware and dishes
recommended as safe for oven
and cooktop use.
Always use oven mitts when
removing food from the Warming
Center as cookware and plates
will be hot.
It is not recommended to warm
food for longer than one hour, as
food quality may deteriorate.
It is not recommended to heat
cold food on the Warming Center.
TIPS TO PROTECT THE
GLASS-CERAMIC
SURFACE
Before first use, clean the cooktop.
(See Cleaning, page 15.)
Do not use glass pans. They may
scratch the surface.
Do not allow plastic, sugar or foods
with high sugar content to melt onto
the hot cooktop. Should this happen,
clean immediately. (See Cleaning,
page 15.)
Never let a pan boil dry as this will
damage the surface and pan.
Never use cooktop as a work surface
or cutting board. Never cook food di-
rectly on the surface.
GLASS-CERAMIC SURFACE
On Canadian models, with a warming zone, the surface will not operate during
a self-clean cycle.
Cooktop may emit light smoke and odor the first few times the cooktop is used.
This is normal.
When a control is turned on, a red glow can be seen through the glass-ceram-
ic surface. The element will cycle on and off to maintain the preset heat set-
ting.
Glass-ceramic cooktops retain heat for a period of time after the unit is turned
off. Turn the elements off a few minutes before food ic completely cooked and
use the retained heat to complete the cooking. When the HOT SURFACE light
turns off (see below), the cooking area will be cool enough to touch.
Because of the heat retention characteristics, the elements will not respond
to changes in settings as quickly as coil elements.
NOTE: Do not attempt to lift the cooktop.
Never place a trivet or wok ring
between the surface and pan. These
items can mark or etch the top.
Do not slide aluminum pans across a
hot surface. The pans may leave
marks which need to be removed
promptly. (See Cleaning, page 15.)
Make sure the surface and the pan
bottom are clean before turning on to
prevent scratches.
Never 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.
Do not use a small pan on a large
element. Not only does this waste
energy, but it can also result in
spillovers burning onto the cooking
area which requires extra cleaning.
Do not use non-flat specialty items
that are oversized or uneven such as
round bottom woks, rippled bottom
and/or oversized canners and grid-
dles.
NOTES:
Do not use foil or foil-type containers.
Foil may melt onto the glass. If metal
melts on the cooktop, do not use. Call
an authorized Maytag servicer.
If spillover occurs while cooking,
immediately clean the spill from the
cooking area while it is hot to prevent
a tough cleaning chore later. Using
extreme care, wipe 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 pow-
ders or scouring pads which will
scratch the cooktop.
Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia
or other cleansers not specifically
recommended.
To retain the appearance of the glass
ceramic cooktop, clean after each
use.
