Right Rear Element
Operating Single Radiant Surface Elements
The cooktop has single radiant surface elements at 2
locations; the right rear (Figure 1) and left rear (Figure 2)
element positions.
To Operate the Single Surface Elements:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either
direction to the desired setting (Figure 3). Turn the knob
to adjust the setting if desired. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and
then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element provides a
constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending
beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the
surface heating area.
3. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to OFF before removing
the cookware. Note: The Hot Surface Indicator light located on the cooktop glass will
come on when the glass becomes hot and will continue to glow until the glass has
cooled down to a moderate level. The light may remain on even though the controls
are turned OFF.
Note: See page 8, Figure 3 for recommended control settings.
Operating the Dual Surface Radiant Element
The cooktop is equipped with a dual radiant surface element
located at the right and left front (See Figure 4) positions.
# and ^ on the control panel are used to indicate which
coil of the dual radiant element will heat. % indicates that
only the inner coil will heat (Figure 4). @ indicates that both
inner and outer coils will heat (Figure 5). You may switch
from either coil setting at any time during cooking.

ik CAUTION I Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. A hot surface indicator
light will come on and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur If the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has turned off.
A CAUTION I Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch
fire if placed too close to the surface elements.
