SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
I Always keep dish towels, dishcloths, pot
holders and other linens a safe distance
away from your cooktop.
I For your safety, never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.
I 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 extinguisher.
I Always keep wooden and plastic utensils
and canned food a safe distance away from
your cooktop. They may become hot and
could cause burns.
I Never wear loose-fitting or hanging
garments while using the appliance.
Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with hot surface units
and may cause severe burns.
I Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering with baking soda or, if
available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
I 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. Such cloths can catch
fire on a hot surface unit.
I When preparing flaming foods under the
hood, turn the fan on.
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry
to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
I Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate on
the cooktop.
I Use little fat for effective shallow or
deep-fat frying. Filling the pan too full of
fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
I Do not touch surface units. These surfaces I If a combination of oils or fats will be used

in frying, stir together before heating, or as
fats melt slowly.
I Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
I Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.
I Potentially hot surfaces include the
cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
I Never try to move a pan of hot fat,
especially a deep-fat fryer. Wait until the
fat is cool.
I To minimize the possibility of burns,
ignition of flammable materials and
spillage, the handle of a container should
be turned toward the center of the
cooktop without extending over any
nearby surface units.
I Do not store flammable materials near
the cooktop.
I Keep the hood and grease filters clean to
maintain good venting and to avoid grease
fires.
I Always turn the surface unit control to off
before removing the cookware.
I Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any
appliance.
I Use proper pan size—select cookware

RADIANT SURFACE UNITS
Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the
controls have been turned off.
I Avoid scratching the glass cooktop.
The cooktop can be scratched with items
such as sharp instruments, rings or other
jewelry and rivets on clothing.
I Clean the cooktop with caution. 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.
I Never use the glass cooktop surface as
a cutting board.
I NOTE: We recommend that you avoid
wiping any surface unit areas until they
have cooled and the indicator light has
gone off. Sugar spills are the exception
to this. Please see the Cleaning the Glass
Cooktop section.
I Do not place or store items on top of the
glass cooktop surface when it is not in use.
I Be careful when placing spoons or other
stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface

units beneath a smooth glass surface.
SURFACE
COOKING
Avoid placing anything on the surface
unit until it has cooled completely.
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.
IWater stains (mineral deposits) are removable
using the cleaning cream or full strength white
vinegar.
IUse of window cleaner may leave an
iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning
cream will remove this discoloration.
Never cook directly on the glass.
Always use cookware.
NOTE: On models with light-colored glass
cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones to
change color when hot or cooling down. This is
temporary and will disappear as glass cools to
room temperature.
IDon’t store heavy items above the cooktop.

Selecting types of cookware.
The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.
Stainless Steel:
recommended
Porcelain Enamel-Covered Cast Iron:
recommended
As long as the cookware is covered
completely with porcelain enamel, this
cookware is recommended. Caution is
recommended for cast-iron cookware
that is not completely covered with
smooth porcelain enamel, since it may
scratch the glass ceramic cooktop.
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.
Glass-Ceramic:
usable, but not recommended
Poor performance. May scratch the
surface.
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.
Stoneware:
usable, but 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.
For Best Results
I Place only dry pans on the surface
units. Do not place lids on the
surface units, particularly wet lids.
I Some special cooking procedures
require specific cookware such as
pressure cookers, deep-fat fryers, etc.
All cookware must have flat bottoms
and be the correct size.
I Do not use woks that have support
rings. This type of wok will not heat
on glass surface units.
Do not place wet pans
on the glass cooktop.
I We recommend that you use only a
flat-bottomed wok. They are available
at your local retail store. The bottom
of the wok should have the same
diameter as the surface unit to
ensure proper contact.
Do not use woks with support
rings on the glass cooktop.
Use flat-bottomed woks
on the glass cooktop.
7
Selecting types of cookware.
Temperature Limiter
Every radiant surface unit has a
temperature limiter.
The temperature limiter may cycle the
units off for a time if:
I The cooktop is on while cooking.
I The pan boils dry.
The temperature limiter protects the
glass cooktop from getting too hot.
I The pan bottom is not flat.
I The pan is off-center.
I There is no pan on the unit.
Observe the Following Points in Canning
Remember that canning is a
process that generates large
amounts of steam. To avoid burns
from steam or heat, be careful
when canning.
Pots that extend beyond 1″ of
the surface unit’s circle are not
recommended for most surface cooking.
However, when canning with water-bath
or pressure 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.
Right!
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:
Wrong!
Note: Flat-bottomed canners are
required for glass cooktops.
(1) using a pressure canner, and
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.
(2) starting with HOT tap water for fastest
heating of large quantities of water.
CAUTION:
I 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.
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.
I 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.
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.
I 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.
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.

Cleaning the glass cooktop.
Normal Daily Use Cleaning
ONLY use CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic
Cooktop Cleaner on the glass cooktop.
Other creams may not be as effective.
Shake the cleaning cream well.
Apply a few drops of CERAMA
BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner
directly to the cooktop.
To maintain and protect the surface of
your glass cooktop, follow these steps:
Use a paper towel or CERAMA
BRYTE® Cleaning Pad for Ceramic
Cooktops to clean the entire
cooktop surface.
Before using the cooktop for the
first time, clean it with CERAMA
BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner.
This helps protect the top and
makes cleanup easier.
Use a dry cloth or paper towel
to remove all cleaning residue.
No need to rinse.
Clean your cooktop after
each spill. Use CERAMA
BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop
Cleaner.
Daily use of CERAMA BRYTE®
Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner will help
keep the cooktop looking new.
NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT
heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned
thoroughly.
Burned-On Residue
If any residue remains, repeat the
steps listed above as needed.
WARNING: DAMAGE to your glass surface
may occur if you use scrub pads other than the
pad included with your cooktop.
For additional protection, after all
residue has been removed, polish
the entire surface with CERAMA
BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner
and a paper towel.
Allow the cooktop to cool.
Spread a few drops of CERAMA
BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner
on the entire burned residue area.
Use a CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning
Pad for Ceramic Cooktops or a
Scotch-Brite® Multi-Purpose No
Scratch blue scrub pad.
Using the included CERAMA
BRYTE® Cleaning Pad for Ceramic
Cooktops, rub the residue area,
applying pressure as needed.
Heavy, Burned-On Residue
Allow the cooktop to cool.
For additional protection,
after all residue has been
removed, polish the entire
surface with CERAMA BRYTE®
Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner
and a paper towel.
Use a single-edge razor blade
scraper at approximately a 45°
angle against the glass surface
and scrape the soil. It will be
necessary to apply pressure to
the razor scraper in order to
remove the residue.
The CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic
Cooktop Scraper and all
recommended supplies are
available through our Parts Center.
See instructions under “To Order
Parts” section on next page.
After scraping with the razor
scraper, spread a few drops of
CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic
Cooktop Cleaner on the entire
burned residue area. Use the
CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Pad to
remove any remaining residue.
NOTE: Do not use a dull or
nicked blade.
10
Metal Marks and Scratches
Be careful not to slide pots and
pans across your cooktop. It will
leave metal markings on the
cooktop surface.
If pots with a thin overlay of
aluminum or copper are allowed
to boil dry, the overlay may leave
black discoloration on the cooktop.
These marks are removable using
the CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic
Cooktop Cleaner with the CERAMA
BRYTE® Cleaning Pad for Ceramic
Cooktops.
This should be removed
immediately before heating
again or the discoloration may
be permanent.
WARNING: Carefully check the bottom of pans
for roughness that would scratch the cooktop.
Glass surface – potential for permanent damage.
Our testing shows that if you
are cooking high sugar mixtures
such as jelly or fudge and have
a spillover, it can cause
permanent damage to the glass
surface unless the spillover is
immediately removed.
Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic
Turn off all surface units. Remove
hot pans.
Any remaining spillover should be
left until the surface of the cooktop
has cooled.
Wearing an oven mitt:
a. Use a single-edge razor blade
scraper (CERAMA BRYTE®
Ceramic Cooktop Scraper) to
move the spill to a cool area on
the cooktop.
Don’t use the surface units again
until all of the residue has been
completely removed.
NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass
surface has already occurred, the cooktop glass
will have to be replaced. In this case, service will
be necessary.
b. Remove the spill with
paper towels.
