About the radiant surface elements

The temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the radiant element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting, the element will cycle on and off. The heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle. For efficient cooking, turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.

®

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 cooktop.

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.

USING THE PROPER COOKWARE

Using the right cookware can prevent many problems, such as uneven cooking or extended cooking times. Using the proper pans will reduce cooking times and cook food more evenly.

Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware.

I

Flat bottom and straight sides.

• Tight fitting lids.

• Weight of handle does not tilt pan.

• Pan is well balanced.

• Pan size matches the amount of food to be prepared and the size of the surface element.

• Made of a material that conducts heat well.

• Always match pot diameter to element surface diameter.

Curved and warped pan bottoms.

q_

Pan overhangs element by more than one-half inch.

Pan is smaller than element.

Heaw handle tilts pan.

CHOOSING THE PROPER COOKWARE

What your cookware is made of determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom.

ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause the aluminum to darken. (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting.). If aluminum pans are slid across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks that resemble scratches. Remove these marks as soon as the cooktop cools down.

• COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see above).

• STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

• CAST IRON - A poor conductor; retains heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.

• ENAMELWARE - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelainenamel 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.

PROTECTING THE SMOOTHTOP SURFACE

Cleaning

• Clean the cooktop before using it for the first time.

Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep your cooktop looking good and can prevent damage.

If a spillover occurs, immediately clean the spill from the cooking area while it is hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe the spill with a clean dry towel.

Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the cooktop trim for a long period of time.

• Do not use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads, which will scratch the cooktop.

Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or other cleansers not specifically recommended for use on a glass-ceramic surface.

Preventing marks and scratches

Do not use glass cookware. It may scratch the cooktop.

Do not place a trivet or wok ring between the cooktop and the pan. These items can mark or scratch the cooktop.

Make sure the cooktop and the pan bottom are clean.

Do not slide metal pans across the cooktop.

Preventing stains

Do not use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the cooktop surface. A film will remain, which may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is heated.

,, Continuously cooking on a soiled surface can result in a permanent stain.

Preventing other damage

Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the hot cooktop.

Should this happen, clean immediately.

Do not let a pan boil dry as this will damage the cooktop and the pan.

,, Do not use the cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.

Do not cook food directly on the cooktop. Always use the proper cookware.

ABOUT THE WARMING DRAWER

The warming drawer will keep hot, cooked foods warm. Always start with hot food. Do not use to warm cold food other than bread, crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal.

Allow approximately 25 minutes for the warming drawer to preheat.

• Do not line the warming drawer or pan with aluminum foil. Foil is an excellent

heat

insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer and could damage the interior finish.

• Do not put liquid or water in the warming drawer.

All foods placed in the warming drawer should be covered with a lid. When warming pastries or breads, the cover should be vented to allow moisture to escape.

Remove serving spoons, etc., before placing containers in the warming drawer.

Food should be kept hot in its cooking container or transferred to a heat-safe serving dish.

CONVECTION BAKING

By using the convection bake feature, you will be able to cook faster. You can program the oven for convection baking at any temperature between 150°F and 550°R

Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster and more evenly with convection baking. Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved.

Breads and pastries brown more evenly.

Tips for convection baking

The amount of time you save will vary depending on the amount and type of food you are cooking. When baking cookies or biscuits, you should use pans with no sides or very low sides to allow the heated air to circulate around the food. Using a pan with a dark finish will allow faster cooking times.

When using convection baking with a single rack, place the oven rack in position 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 5 or 3, and 6.

When baking a cake, using the bake mode will produce better results.

How to set the oven for convection baking

1. Start the convection baking mode.

Press the CONY, BAKE pad. The default temperature is 350°R

2. Enter the temperature you want, eg. 400°F, using the number pad.

3. Press the START/SET pad to begin convection baking.

Conv. Bake and the adjusted oven temperature, eg. 400°F, will appear in the display for 2 seconds.

The temperature display will start to change once the oven temperature reaches 150°R

A beep will sound 6 times when the oven reaches the adjusted oven temperature.

4. Turn off or cancel convection baking by pressing the CLEAR/OFF pad.

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened.

DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.

CONVECTION ROASTING

Convection roasting is good for cooking large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.

Heat comes from the top heating element. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.

How to set the oven for convection roasting

1. Start the convection roasting mode.

Press the CONY. ROAST pad. The default temperature is 350°R


3. Press the START/SET pad to begin convection roasting.

Conv. Roast and the adjusted oven temperature, eg. 375°F, will appear in the display for 2 seconds.

The temperature display will start to change once the oven temperature reaches 150°F.

A beep will sound 6 times when the oven reaches the adjusted oven temperature.

4. Turn off or cancel convection roasting by pressing the CLEAR/

OFF pad.

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened.

DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.

2. Wearing an oven mitt, use a single-edge razor-blade scraper to move the spill to a cool area of the cooktop. Remove the spill with paper towels.

3. Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.

4. Don't use the surface units again until all of the residue has been completely removed.

If pitting or indentations in the glass surface have already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.
