For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire
or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot
surface units. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth in place of a pot holder. Such
cloths can catch fire on a hot surface unit.
precautions should be followed, including the
following:
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
• Do not store flammable materials near the
cooktop.
• Have the installer show you the location of
the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy
reference.
• Keep the hood and grease filters clean to
maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use
• Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
as described in this manual.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your cooktop unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate on the cooktop.
• Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by
covering the pan completely with a well-fitting
lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-
purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT
THE COOKTOP POWER SUPPLY AT THE
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY
REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING
OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
• Do not leave children alone—children should
not be left alone or unattended in an area

never be allowed to sit or stand on any part
of the appliance.
• Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out
by covering it with baking soda or, if available,
by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
• Clean the cooktop with caution. Always lock
the control panel using the control lock
feature and wait until the entire glass surface
is cool before attempting to clean the cooktop.
See the Locking the Cooktop section for
details. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe
spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid
steam burns. Some cleansers can produce
noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
• Teach children not to play with controls or
any other part of the cooktop.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the cooktop.
CAUTION:
ITEMS OF INTEREST
TO CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED
IN CABINETS ABOVE A COOKTOP—
CHILDREN CLIMBING ON THE COOKTOP
TO REACH ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY
INJURED.

which may ignite.
• Never leave the surface units unattended at
high heat settings. Boilovers may cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
• Use proper pan size—select cookware having
flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
unit heating area. The use of undersized
cookware will expose a portion of the surface
unit to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
cookware to surface unit will also improve
efficiency. See the Cookware Tips section of
the manual.

cuisson en vitrocéramique comme planche
à découper.
• Faites attention quand vous placez des
cuillères ou d’autres ustensiles de cuisine
sur la surface de la table de cuisson en
vitrocéramique quand vous l’utilisez.
Ils peuvent se réchauffer et occasionner
des brûlures.
• Ne faites jamais réchauffer une casserole vide.
Vous risquez d’endommager la casserole et la
table de cuisson.
• Ne laissez jamais d’eau, de liquide ou de
graisse sur la table de cuisson.
• Faites toujours réchauffer les matières grasses
à basse température et surveillez-les pendant
la cuisson.
• Ne nettoyez que les pièces indiquées dans ce
manuel.
• Ne placez ou ne conservez jamais d’objet sur
la surface de votre table de cuisson quand

aussi secs que possible. Le gel sur les aliments
surgelés et la condensation sur les aliments
frais peut occasionner des bulles dans la
matière grasse et un débordement ou des
projections en dehors de la casserole.
• Utilisez peu de matière grasse pour bien faire
frire dans une poêle ou par immersion vos
aliments. Si vous remplissez trop votre
casserole, vous risquez de faire déborder la
matière grasse en ajoutant des aliments.
• Utilisez autant que possible un thermomètre
à friture pour éviter de brûler vos aliments.
• Ne faites jamais réchauffer des contenants à
aliments fermés. L’augmentation de pression
peut faire exploser le contenant et
occasionner des blessures.
• Ne laissez jamais de pots ou de boîtes de
matières grasses couler sur votre table de
cuisson ou à proximité.
• Si vous utilisez un mélange d’huiles ou de
matières grasses pour faire frire, mélangez
bien avant de réchauffer, car les matières
grasses fondent plus lentement que les huiles.
• Pour votre propre sécurité, n’utilisez jamais
votre appareil électroménager pour
réchauffer la pièce.
• Ne montez jamais sur la table de cuisson en
vitrocéramique.
• Veuillez à ce que votre table de cuisson soit
toujours propre et ne contienne jamais de
graisses ou d’éclaboussures qui peuvent
prendre feu.
• Pour éviter toute mise en marche accidentelle
de votre table de cuisson, éviter de placer tout
objet sur les commandes ou à proximité des
commandes.
• Pour réduire la possibilité de brûlure,
assurez-vous toujours que les commandes
pour toutes les unités de surface soient en
position OFF (arrêt) et que toute la surface
en vitrocéramique soit froide avant d’essayer
de nettoyer la table de cuisson.
• Éloignez toujours les ustensiles de cuisine en
bois ou en matière plastique et les aliments en
conserve à une distance sécuritaire de votre
table de cuisson. Ils peuvent se réchauffer et
occasionner des brûlures.

SURFACE
COOKING
NOTE: This cooktop has Rapid Response surface
units. The cooktop will automatically heat up or cool
down to the desired power level setting in the quickest
time possible. While the surface units are on, you
may not see them glow red during certain heat up or
cool down conditions.
Never cook directly on the glass.
Always use cookware.
Cooktop temperatures increase with the number
of surface units that are on. With 3 or 4 units
turned on, surface temperatures are high.
Always use caution when touching the cooktop.
OFF CENTER
The ON/OFF indicator lights will come on
next to the Warmer and Dual surface units
when activated. Lights also activate for the
(Pan Detect) and
(Control Lock) features
when they are turned on. The indicator lights
will go off when the surface unit or feature is
turned off.
Always place the pan in the center of the
surface unit you are cooking on.
The appropriate HOT SURFACE indicator light
will glow when its corresponding radiant element
is turned on, and will remain on until the surface
has cooled below 150°F.
DRAGGING
NOTE:
Hot surface indicator light will:
• Come on when the surface unit is turned on.
• Stay on even after the unit is turned off.
• Glow brightly until the unit has cooled below 150°F.
Do not slide cookware across the control
or cooktop because it can scratch the glass.
The glass is scratch-resistant, not scratchproof.
NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new cooktop is
used for the first time. It is caused by the heating of
new parts and insulating materials and will
disappear in a short time.
• Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using
the cleaning cream or full strength white vinegar.
It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven or
surface on the glass cooktop when the surface is
cool. Never place cookware on the control area.
• Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film
on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will remove this
discoloration.
Even after the surface units are turned off, the
glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue
cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans
from the surface units when the food is cooked.
Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until
it has cooled completely.
• Don’t store heavy items above the cooktop. If they
drop onto the cooktop, they can cause damage.
• Do not use the surface as a cutting board.

Cookware Tips
Radiant Cooktop
The following information will help you choose
cookware which will give good performance.
Selecting
types of
cookware
Pan Detection/Sizing will work properly with
these types of cookware.
Pan Detection/Sizing will not work with
these types of pans.
Stainless Steel:
recommended
Aluminum:
heavyweight recommended
Good conductivity. Aluminum residues
sometimes appear as scratches on the cooktop
but can be removed if cleaned immediately.
Because of its low melting point, thin weight
aluminum should not be used.
Check pans for flat bottoms by
using a straight edge.
Copper Bottom:
recommended
Copper may leave residues which can appear
as scratches. The residues can be removed, as
long as the cooktop is cleaned immediately.
However, do not let these pots boil dry.
Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops.
An overheated copper-bottom pot will leave a
residue that will permanently stain the cooktop
if not removed immediately.
Porcelain Enamel-Covered Cookware:
not recommended
Some porcelain-covered cookware can bond to
the hot cooking surface.
Glass-Ceramic/Stoneware:
not recommended
Poor performance. May scratch the surface.
Use pans that match the diameter of the
surface unit. Cooking performance will not
be as good if the cookware is either smaller
or larger than the surface unit.
Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not
recommended. Pan detection/sizing may not work properly with
these types of pans.
• Place only dry pans on the surface units.
Do not place lids on the surface units,
particularly wet lids.
The bottom of the wok should have the same
diameter as the surface unit to ensure proper
contact.
For best
results
• Do not use woks that have support rings.
This type of wok will not heat on glass
surface units.
• Some special cooking procedures require
specific cookware such as pressure cookers,
deep-fat fryers, etc. All cookware must have
flat bottoms that match the size of the
surface units.
• Use only a flat-bottomed wok available from
many popular cookware manufacturers.
Do not place wet pans on the
glass cooktop.
Do not use woks with support rings
on the glass cooktop.
Use flat-bottomed woks on the
glass cooktop.

Home Canning Tips
Radiant Cooktop
Observe the
following
points in
canning
Note: Flat-bottomed
canners are required
for glass cooktops.
Right!
Wrong!
When canning with water-bath or pressure
CAUTION:
canner, larger-diameter pots may be used.
This is because boiling water temperatures
(even under pressure) are not harmful to
the cooktop surfaces surrounding the
surface units.
• Safe canning requires that harmful
microorganisms are destroyed and that the
jars are sealed completely. When canning
foods in a water-bath canner, a gentle but
steady boil must be maintained for the
required time. When canning foods in
a pressure canner, the pressure must be
maintained for the required time.
HOWEVER, DO NOT USE LARGE-
DIAMETER CANNERS OR OTHER LARGE-
DIAMETER POTS FOR FRYING OR BOILING
FOODS OTHER THAN WATER. Most syrup or
sauce mixtures—and all types of frying—cook
at temperatures much higher than boiling
water. Such temperatures could eventually
harm the glass cooktop surfaces.
• After you have adjusted the controls, it is
very important to make sure the prescribed
boil or pressure levels are maintained for
the required time.
1. Be sure the canner fits over the center of the
surface unit. If your cooktop or its location
does not allow the canner to be centered on
the surface unit, use smaller-diameter pots
for good canning results.
• Since you must make sure to process the
canning jars for the prescribed time, with
no interruption in processing time, do not
can on any cooktop surface unit if your
canner is not flat.
2. Flat-bottomed canners must be used. Do not
use canners with flanged or rippled bottoms
(often found in enamelware) because they
don’t make enough contact with the surface
units and take a long time to boil water.
ATTENTION :
• Une bonne mise en conserve implique la
destruction de tous les microorganismes et
une bonne fermeture du pot. Si vous mettez
en conserve des aliments dans un appareil de
mise en conserve au bain-Marie, vous devez
entretenir un bouillonnement léger, mais
constant, pendant tout le temps requis.
3. When canning, use recipes and procedures
from reputable sources. Reliable recipes
and procedures are available from the
manufacturer of your canner; manufacturers
of glass jars for canning, such as Ball and
Kerr brand; and the United States
Department of Agriculture Extension
Service.
• Après avoir ajusté les contrôles, vous devez
absolument vous assurer que les niveaux
prescrits de pression et de température soient
maintenus pendant tout le temps requis.
4. Remember that canning is a process that
generates large amounts of steam. To avoid
burns from steam or heat, be careful when
canning.
• Comme vous devez réchauffer les pots de
conserve pendant tout le temps requis sans
aucune interruption pendant le temps de
traitement, vous ne pouvez pas utiliser la
table de cuisson de votre four pour faire
des conserves si le fond de votre appareil de
mise en conserve n’est pas absolument plat.
NOTE: If your house has low voltage, canning may
take longer than expected, even though directions
have been carefully followed. The process time will be
shortened by:
(1) using a pressure canner, and
(2) starting with HOT tap water for fastest heating
of large quantities of water.
