About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop  
The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of the  
glass. The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface element  
underneath. Make sure the diameter of the pan matches the diameter of the element  
outline on the cooktop (See Figs. 1 & 2).  
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only flat-

Surface cooking settings  
Use the chart to determine the correct setting for the type of food you are preparing.  
Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best  
cooking results.  
36” cooktop  
Recommended Settings for Surface Elements  
Setting  
Type of Cooking  
HIGH(HI)  
Start most foods; bring water to a boil and pan broiling.  
MEDIUMHIGH(8-10) Continue a rapid boil; frying, deep fat frying.  
MEDIUM(6) Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces and gravies; steaming  
vegetables.  
MEDIUM LOW (2 - 4) Keep foods cooking; poaching and stewing.  
LOW(LO) Keep warm, melting and simmering.  
NOTE: PleasereaddetailedinstructionsforceramicglasscooktopcleaningintheGeneralCare&CleaningsectionandBefore  
You Call checklist section of this Use and Care Guide.  
NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle on and off, even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent  
damage to the ceramic smooth top. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the radiant  
element or if the cookware bottom is not flat (Refer to page 12 under Selecting Surface Cooking Utensils).  
NOTE: Due to the high intensity of heat generated by the surface elements, the glass surface will turn green when the  
element will be turned off.This phenomenon is normal and the glass will come back to its original white color after it has  
completely cooled down. (White glass cooktops only).

Setting Surface Controls  
The electronic surface element control (esec)  
TheElectronicSurfaceElementControl(“ESEC”)featureincludes  
5 digital display windows. The ESEC feature provides a numeric  
digital setting for the 5 radiant surface element positions on the  
cooktop. These settings work the same way as normal knob  
setting indicators work except the settings are displayed in digital  
windows (Figs. 1 thru 4).  
Fig. 1  
Fig. 2  
Fig. 4  
The available ESEC Display Settings  
The ESEC control provides various heat levels from Hi (Fig. 2) to  
Lo (Fig. 4) and OFF (Fig. 1). The settings between 9.5 and 3.0  
decrease or increase in increments of .5 (1/2). The settings  
between 3.0 and 1.2 are Simmer settings which decrease or  
increase in increments of .2 (1/5) to Lo (Figure 4; lowest Simmer  
setting) for more precise settings at lower heat levels. Use the  
Recommended Surface Setting Chart to determine the correct  
setting for the kind of food you are preparing.

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been  
turned OFF. HE (Hot Element) message will turn 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.  
Operating the Bridge Radiant Element  
This cooktop is equipped with a "Bridge" surface  
element located at the left front and middle (see  
Figs 7 & 8) positions. The Bridge can be used  
when cooking with rectangular (like a griddle) or  
oval shaped cookware (Fig. 8) The element will  
maintain an even temperature setting across  
both portions of the Bridge. If needed for normal

Cookware Material types  
Thecookwarematerialdetermineshowevenlyandquicklyheatistransferredfromthesurfaceelementtothepanbottom. The  
most popular materials available are:  
ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists  
staining & pitting). If aluminum pans slide across the ceramic glass cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will resemble  
scratches. Remove these marks immediately.  
COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).  
STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.  
CAST IRON - A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.  
Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.  
PORCELAIN-ENAMEL on METAL - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel coating  
must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.  
GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.

Care & Cleaning  
Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance  
Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your Ceramic glass cooktop  
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic  
surface. Cleanandbuffwithanonabrasiveclothorpad. Thiswillmakecleaningeasierwhensoiledfromcooking. Thespecial  
cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.  
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings  
onthecooktopsurface.Thesemarksshouldberemovedimmediatelyafterthecooktop  
hascooledusingthecooktopcleaningcream.Metalmarkscanbecomepermanentifnot  
removed prior to future use.  
Cookware(castiron,metal,ceramicorglass)withroughbottomscanmarkorscratchthe  
cooktopsurface. Donotslideanythingmetalorglassacrossthecooktop. Donotuse  
yourcooktopasacuttingboardorworksurfaceinthekitchen. Donotcookfoodsdirectly  
on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass  
cooktop, or they may crack it.  
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.  
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can  
chemically damage the ceramic glass surface.  
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop  
For light to moderate soil:  
Apply a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or a Multi-  
Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned  
thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not use the sponge you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.  
For heavy, burned on soil:  
First, clean the surface as described above. Then, if soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade  
scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with  
cooktop cleaning cream and buff surface clean.  
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use any scrub pad  
other than a Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge.  
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:  
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the ceramic  
cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur if  
not removed immediately. After turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade  
scraperorametalspatulawithamittandscrapethesoilfromthehotsurface(asillustrated).  
Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.  
Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:  
• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and some nylon  
pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it more difficult to clean.  
• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or oven cleaners, as  
they may etch or discolor the cooktop.  
• Donotusedirtysponges,clothsorpapertowels,astheycanleavesoilorlintonthe  
cooktop which can burn and cause discoloration.  
Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils  
Aluminum foil: Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any  
circumstances.  
Aluminumutensils:Sincethemeltingpointofaluminumismuchlowerthanthatofother  
metals, care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used. Pans that boil dry may  
permanently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing to, or marking it.
