USING THE COOkTOP
COOkING AREAS
The cooking areas on your range are identified by perma-
nent circles on the glass cooktop surface. For the most ef-
ficient cooking, fit the pan size to the element size.
Pans should not extend more than 1/2 to 1-inch be-
yond the cooking area.
When a control is turned on, a glow can be seen through
the glass cooktop surface. The element will cycle on and
off to maintain the preset heat setting, even on Hi.
Hot surface indicator
HS (Hot Surface) will appear in the display once the el-
ement is turned off or during the self clean cycle. The
HS indicator will stay on until the surface has cooled to
approximately 150°F (66°C) or when the self clean cycle
ends.
It is normal for the surface elements to cycle on and
off during cooking, even on higher settings. This will
happen more frequently if cooking on a lower tem-
perature setting.
