What to Do
1. Begin by insuring proper installation and grounding of the appliance by a qualified technician. Have the installer show you where the fuse
or junction box is located so that you know how and where to turn off power.
2. Never let clothing, potholders or other flammable materials come in contact with the burners while in operation. Fabric may ignite and
result in personal injury. For personal safety wear proper apparel; loose fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while cooking.
3. Always use pot holders when removing utensils from the cooktop elements. Wet or damp pot holders can cause steam burns. Do not
use a towel or bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
4. Select utensils of the proper size, material, and construction for the particular type of cooking being done. Choose cookware with a flat
bottom that closely matches the diameter of the heating element.
Select pans with easily grasped handles that will stay cool during cooking. Avoid using pans that are too heavy to lift safely. Do not use
utensils with loose handles. Use cookware only as it is intended. Certain types of glass, ceramic, and earthenware utensils are suitable
for use only in an oven and not in cooktop applications.
5. Always turn pan handles to the side or back of the range. Do not turn handles towards the room where they are easily hit. Handles
should not extend over adjacent heating elements.
6. Always clean the cooktop cautiously. If using a damp sponge or cloth, wait until the cooktop has cooled sufficiently to prevent steam burns.
Also, some cleaners can produce noxious fumes when applied to hot surfaces.
What Not to Do
1. Never use your cooktop to warm or heat the room.
2. When using the cooktop: DO NOT TOUCH THE GLASS SURFACE directly above or adjacent to the heating elements. The glass surface
may become hot enough to cause burns.
3. Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area where the cooktop is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on the
appliance. Do not let children play with the cooktop.
4. CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children above or at the back of the cooktop – they could climb on it to reach the items
and be seriously injured.
5. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless it is specifically recommended in literature you received. All servicing should
be referred to a qualified technician.
6. Do not use water on grease fires. Smother the flame, or use a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
7. Never leave burners unattended when using high heat settings. Boil-overs and greasy spill-overs may smoke and/or ignite.
8. Do not operate the cooktop if the ceramic glass top is broken or severely pitted. Call a qualified technician to repair the appliance.
9. Do not store flammable materials near hot components or let grease or other flammable substances accumulate on the cooktop.
Getting Started
Before operating the cooktop, clean the glass ceramic surface carefully as outlined in the Care and Cleaning Instructions. The cooktop surface
must be free of any foreign substances, especially those that could melt and permanently adhere to the glass.
During the first uses of your new cooktop, you may smell a slight burning odor or see light smoke. Both of these conditions are normal
in new glass ceramic cooktops.
Heating Elements
DACOR glass ceramic cooktops contain ribbon type radiant heating elements in various sizes to allow the user the greatest cooking flexibility.
The Ribbon Radiant Heaters illuminate within approximately 3-4 seconds of activation. The Dual Element consists of two elements which
may be operated simultaneously for heavy cooking demands. The inner element may be operated alone for improved simmering with smaller
utensils.
All elements feature temperature limiters to ensure that the safe operating temperature of the glass ceramic top is never exceeded.
DACOR glass ceramic cooktops operate by automatically cycling the heating elements between “off” and full power. As the numeric setting of
the control is increased, the element will stay at full power for longer periods and at zero power for shorter durations.
When the element is set to the dual range, both the inner and outer elements will cycle on and off at the same time. (The outer heating
element can never be operated alone.)
For maximum performance from any burner remember to closely match heating element diameters and cookware size.
Residual Heat Indicator Lights
All Dacor glass cooktops have element residual heat indicator lights. These indicating lights remain illuminated until the burner cools down
to a safe temperature of 140º degrees.
IMPORTANT:
Be certain that the cookware and glass surfaces are clean and dry before you turn on the burner and place a pot or pan on the
heating burner.
Element ON Indicator Light
One light indicating power is on to any of the elements.

Setting the Controls
NOTE:
When at its highest setting, the heating element may cycle off due to the protection of the temperature limiter built into each element. This
temperature limiting occurs automatically to prevent exceeding the maximum allowable surface temperature and to maintain the constant
desired heat level. The element will cycle back on after it has cooled to a safe temperature.
ETT Models
To turn an element on, tap the “ON/OFF” key then tap the up arrow for the desired element. The element will come on at a setting of “5” and
may be adjusted up or down by pressing the appropriate key.
To activate the Dual Element, tap the “ON/OFF” key then tap the Dual Element Indicator to activate the outer ring of the element. It will come on
at a setting of “5”, then tap the up indicator for desired temperature setting.
To turn an element off, tap the “ON/OFF” key. You may turn off all active elements at the same time by tapping twice on the Dacor logo
located below the controls.
ETT Secure Lockout
To avoid accidentally turning the cooktop on while cleaning it, activate the “Secure Lockout” feature.
To lock out the cooktop:
Press and hold the DACOR logo for 3-4 seconds and the cooktop will be secured from use. You will hear three beeps and a light will
illuminate directly above the DACOR logo indicating that the cooktop is secure. The control panel is now disabled and may be cleaned
without activating any functions.
To unlock the cooktop:
Press and hold the DACOR logo for 3-4 seconds. You will hear three beeps and the light will go out. The control panel is now ready for use.
NOTES:
1. For maximum safety, the cooktop will be in the “lock out” mode when first installed, or whenever power is interrupted. Follow the
“Unlock” instructions above to reactivate the control panel.
2. To turn off multiple burners all at one time - tap the Dacor logo twice.

Setting the Controls
Bridge Burner
Your CERB electric cooktop offers a new unique cooking feature. The bridge burner has controlled heat zones allowing various pot and pan
applications on this three-in-one burner. The bridge burner has three cooking zones identified by the lines on the right side of the cooktop.
Each zone has a separate heating element. In the front of the bridge is a round element seven inches in diameter that is rated at 1800 watts.
This front element of the bridge burner is individually controlled for use with a pot or pan as large as eight inches in diameter. The back burner
area of the bridge burner, also a round element seven inches in diameter, is rated 1800 watts makes this another great individual burner for a
pot as large as eight inches in diameter. In the center of the bridge burner is a bridge element rated at 800 watts, which operates in conjunction
with the back burner element. A single control knob operates the back burner element and the bridge element. So to turn on the entire bridge
element to a setting of medium, push and turn the right rear knob clockwise to number 6. Then push and turn the right front knob to number 6.
Note: Ask your dealer about the DACOR AMG11 Griddle. This Griddle is designed for the DACOR bridge burner.

Selecting Proper Cookware
For best results, a few simple guidelines should be followed: use medium to heavy gauge metal cookware with flat, thick and smooth bottoms
for greatest efficiency. Glass cookware should only be used as recommended by the cookware manufacturer.
IMPORTANT:
In no instance should a support, such as a wok ring or trivet, be placed directly on the cooking surface. This may result in scratching
of the glass ceramic top.
WARNING:
To avoid electrical shock or burns, turn off all controls and ensure the cooktop is cool before cleaning.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents, waxes, polishes, or commercial cooktop cleaners to clean the cooktop.
Care & Cleaning Instructions
Glass Ceramic Top
Clean the top surface thoroughly before operating the cooktop for the first time. Apply about 1/4 teaspoon of non-abrasive cleaner, such as the
Cooktop Cleaning Creme supplied, to the surface of the ceramic glass with a lightly dampened clean cloth. Use a second clean cloth to remove
any remaining cleaner residue. Wipe the cooktop surface with a dry cloth to completely eliminate any remaining moisture.
The cooktop surface should be maintained by repeating the above procedure during or after each use. Be careful not to wipe or clean
any hot areas to avoid personal injury. It should be safe to clean each element area whenever the corresponding element residual heat
indicator light has gone out.
To remove heavy or burned-on spills, allow the cooktop to cool. Using a razor blade scraper held at a 30° angle to the cooktop surface,
gently scrape off any burned-on substances. Remove any remaining residue by applying the recommended cleaner as described above. Be
careful not to scratch or gouge the surface. Do not allow the scraper handle to touch the cooktop surface when hot. Remove any residue
by applying the recommended cleaners.
Pitting of the ceramic glass is possible if sugar spills or spills with a high sugar content are left in the hot zone. Use a razor scraper to move
the spill to a cool area for cleaning after the cooktop cools.
