Single radiant surface elements

To operate the single radiant element:

1. Place correctly sized cookware on single radiant surface

element.

2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either

direction (Fig. 2) to the desired setting (Refer to the

Suggested radiant surface element settings

table Fig. 1). Start most cooking operations on a

higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish

cooking. The surface control knobs do not have to be

set exactly on a particular spot. Use the graphics

provided as a guide and adjust the control knob as

needed (See Fig. 2). Each surface element provides a

constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red

surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge

of the cookware indicates the cookware istoo small

for the surface heating area.

3. When cooking is complete, turn the radiant surface

element OFF before removing the cookware.
