Operation

Cooking with Smoothtop Elements

WARNING
To avoid risk of serious personal injury never cook on
a broken smoothtop cooking surface. Spillovers or
cleaners can penetrate surface and create a risk of
electrical shock. If smoothtop cooking surface breaks,
discontinue use and notify an authorized servicer
immediately.
• Use heavy-gauge metal cookware not including
cast iron.
• Bottom of cookware must be flat. Cookware that is
warped or slightly curved on the bottom heats
slowly and may not boil water. Cookware with an
aluminum disk bottom makes excellent contact
with cooking surface. See Utensils section for more
information.
• Do not use glass, glass-ceramic, or enamel-
porcelain cookware. Small imperfections on bottom
of such cookware can scratch smoothtop module
surface.
• Smoothtop cooking surface is not "scratch proof".
Surface is highly scratch and impact resistant.
With recommended cooking utensils and proper
care, it will continue looking good through years of
use.
• Do not use a pan that overhangs burner by more
than 1 inch.
• Do not use a pan that has a bottom smaller than
element.

Operating Surface Elements
WARNING
To avoid risk of serious personal injury, property
damage, or fire, do not leave surface elements
unattended while in operation. Grease and spillovers
can ignite causing a fire.
1. Push in and turn surface element control to desired
setting.
• Some ranges have two indicator lights, one for
elements on right side and one for elements on left
side of range. When either front or rear element is
on, corresponding indicator light glows.
• Some ranges have one indicator under clock. When
any element is on, indicator light glows.
• Smoothtop ranges can have one or two indicator
lights. After the surface controls are turned off, the
appropriate surface indicator light will continue to
glow until the surface elements have cooled.
The length of time each light remains on will vary.
Do not expect the lights for two different heating
areas to go off at the same time even if the
elements were turned off simultaneously.
2. When finished cooking, turn control to "OFF" position.
