Before Setting the Cooktop

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning creme (on the web visit

www.sears.com

for replacement cleaner, item number 40079) to the ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or no­

scratch cleaning pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning creme

leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.

NOTE:

Be sure to read detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the

General Care & Cleaning

section

and

Before You Call

checklist section of this manual.

Display Window Messages

The Electronic Surface Element Control (ESEC) feature provides a digital display of the settings for the

induction cooking zones on the cooktop. The ESEC displays in combination with the touch pads are

designed to replace the conventional control knob and power level tick mark indicators.

Note: Unlike standard ceramic cooktops, induction cooktops do not directly heat up or glow red. Only the

pan heats. Also, induction cooking zones cannot be turned on without a properly placed pan made of

magnetic material such as steel or cast iron.

ik CAUTION

I The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been

turned OFF.

But the glass

surface

may be HOT

from residual heat transferred from the cookware and

burns may occur if surface is touched.
