COOKTOP SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow

instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can

happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,

injury to persons, or damage when using the cooktop, follow

basic precautions, including the following:

® CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in

cabinets above a cooktop - Children climbing on the

cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.

m Proper Installation - Be sure your cooktop is properly

installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

m Never Use Your Cooktop for Warming or Heating the

Room.

m Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children should not be left

alone or unattended in area where cooktop is in use. They

should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the

cooktop.

m Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging garments

should never be worn while using the cooktop.

m User Servicing - Do not repair or replace any part of the

cooktop unless specifically recommended in the manual. All

other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

m Storage on Cooktop - Flammable materials should not be

stored near surface units.

m Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires - Smother fire or flame

or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

m Use Only Dry Potholders - Moist or clamp potholders on

hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let

potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel

or other bulky cloth.

m DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR

UNITS - Surface units may be hot even though they are

clark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot

enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch,

or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface

units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time

to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces

facing the cooktop.

m Use Proper Pan Size - This cooktop is equipped with one

or more surface units of different size. Select utensils

having fiat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit

heating element. The use of undersized utensils will

expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact

and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of

utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.

m Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat

Settings - Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers

that may ignite.

m Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of glass,

glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed

utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking

due to the sudden change in temperature.

m Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend

Over Adjacent Surface Units - To reduce the risk of burns,

ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to

unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a

utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and

does not extend over adjacent surface units.

m Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop - If cooktop should

break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the

broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact

a qualified technician immediately.

m Clean Cooktop With Caution - If a wet sponge or cloth is

used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to

avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious

fumes if applied to a hot surface.

For unite with ventilating hood -

m Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should not

be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

m When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

For units with coil elements -

m Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in

Place - Absence of these pans or bowls during

cooking may subject wiring or components

underneath to damage.

m Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum foil to line surface

unit drip bowls, except as suggested in the manual.

Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of

electric shock, or fire.

m Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements - Heating

elements should never be immersed in water.

COOKTOP USE

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

The cooktop touch controls offer a variety of heat settings for

optimal cooking results. For normal surface cooking element

operation, the cooktop touch controls can be set anywhere

between SIMMER and HIGH.

When melting foods such as chocolate or butter, or when

proofing bread, the right front and left front surface cooking areas

can be set to MELT for minimal element operation.

For maximum element operation, all cooktop touch controls can

be set to HIGH when bringing liquids to a fast and rapid boil.

Touch the "down" arrow to immediately reach the HIGH setting.

NOTE: Where 240 V installation is not available, this cooktop will

automatically adjust to 208 V operation.

To Use:

1. Touch ON/OFF

2. Touch the "up" or "down" arrow to increase or decrease

power.

3. To choose a power level between HIGH and SIMMER, touch

and hold either arrow until the desired level has been

reached.

4. When finished cooking, touch ON/OFF to turn surface

cooking area(s) off individually, or touch ALL OFF to turn all

elements off at the same time.

Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

SETTING RECOMMENDED USE

HIGH • Start food cooking.

• Bring liquid to a boil.

Medium High • Hold a rapid boil.

Hot Surface Indicator Lights

The Hot Surface Indicator Lights are located next to each of the

cooktop touch controls. See the "Parts and Features" section.

The Hot Surface Indicator Lights will glow as long as any surface

cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking

area(s) is turned off.

A ....................................._i, " 4 MED"6_,8_

A. Hot surface indicator light

If the cooktop is on when a power failure occurs, and if the power

Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or

after cooking.

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

The Warm Function is available on the rear elements, and can be

used to keep cooked foods warm, and may be used whether or

not the other surface cooking zones are in use.

It is not recommended for heating cold foods. When the Warm

Function is in use, it will not glow red like the cooking zones, but

the indicator light will glow on the control panel.

Use only cookware and dishes recommended for oven and

cooktop use, and that have flat bottoms to make direct contact

with the cooktop surface. Use pot holders or oven mitts to

remove cookware.

Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. Do not use plastic

wrap to cover food, as it may melt onto the cooktop surface.

When warming baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover

for moisture to escape.

Food quality may deteriorate if food is kept on the Warm Function

for an extended period of time. For best results, keep food warm

for no longer than 30 to 45 minutes.

To Use:

1. Touch ON/OFE

2. Touch the "up" arrow once for WARM.

3. When finished cooking, touch ON/OFF to turn off surface

cooking area.

The "All Off" function of the cooktop touch control turns off all

surface cooking areas that are in use at the same time.

The "Locked" function of the cooktop touch control averts

unintended use of the surface cooking areas. When the cooktop

is locked out, the surface cooking areas cannot be turned on by

the cooktop touch controls.

To Lock Cooktop: Press and hold the ALL OFF LOCKED keypad

for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, a light will glow red above the

"ALL OFF LOCKED" indicator, indicating that the cooktop touch

controls are in the lockout position.

To Unlock Cooktop: Press and hold the ALL OFF LOCKED

keypad for 5 seconds.

The Melt Function is available on both the right front and left front

elements, and is ideal for melting foods such as chocolate and

butter, at a low temperature.

To Use:

1. Touch ON/OFE

2. Touch the "up" arrow once for MELT.

3. When finished cooking, touch ON/OFF to turn surface

cooking area off.

The surface cooking area will glow red when an element is on. It

will cycle on and off, at all settings, to maintain the selected heat

level.

Wiping off the cooktop before and after each use will help keep it

free from stains and provide the most even heating. For more

information, see "General Cleaning" section.

• Do not store jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a

heavy or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the

cooktop.

• Do not leave a hot lid on the cooktop. As the cooktop cools,

air can become trapped between the lid and the cooktop,

and the ceramic glass could break when the lid is removed.

Clean up sugary spills and soils as soon as hot surface

indicator light goes off. If spills and soils are allowed to cool

down on the surface, they can adhere to the cooktop and

cause pitting and permanent marks.

• Lift pots and pans on and off the cooktop. Sliding pots, pans

and skillets that have aluminum or copper bases could leave

permanent scratches and marks on the cooktop.

• Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged aluminum containers

on the cooktop. It could leave aluminum marks that cannot

be removed completely.

• Do not allow objects that could melt, like plastic or aluminum

foil, to touch any part of the entire cooktop.

A. Surface cooking area

B. Cookware/canner

C. V2"(1.3 cm) maximum overhang

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and

energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed or

dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor

cooking results.

Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler

across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the ruler,

no space or light should be visible between it and the

cookware.

Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small

expansion channels can be used.

Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry

before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits

when heated.

• Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface

cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches.

This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

• Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking

area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not

extend more than _/2"(1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking

area or element.

• Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or

surface burners at the same time.

• On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.

• For more information, contact your local agricultural

department. Companies that manufacture home canning

products can also offer assistance.

IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface

cooking area, element or surface burner.

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a

well-fitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy

thickness.

Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper

may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used

as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or

grates.

Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is

transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has

the same characteristics as its base material. For example,

aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the

properties of aluminum.

Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material

characteristics.

COOKWARE CHARACTERISTICS

Aluminum • Heats quickly and evenly.

• Suitable for all types of cooking.

• Medium or heavy thickness is best for

most cooking tasks.

Cast iron • Heats slowly and evenly.

• Good for browning and frying.

• Maintains heat for slow cooking.

Ceramic or • Follow manufacturer's instructions.

Ceramic glass • Heats slowly, but unevenly.

• Ideal results on low to medium heat

settings.

Copper • Heats very quickly and evenly.

Earthenware • Follow manufacturer's instructions.

• Use on low heat settings.

Porcelain • See stainless steel or cast iron.

Stainless steel • Heats quickly, but unevenly.

• A core or base of aluminum or copper

on stainless steel provides even

COOKTOP CARE

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and

the oven and cooktop are cool. Always follow label instructions STAINLESS STEEL (on some models)

on cleaning products.

Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless To avoid damage to stainless steel, do not use soap-filled

otherwise noted, scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, Cooktop Polishing Creme,

steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths or some paper towels.
