Before Setting Surface Controls
Radiant surface elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned o. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched
before it has cooled suciently.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and
pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top of
the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite.
Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch re if placed
too close to the surface elements.
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 Figure 1).
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the
cookware. Only at-bottom cookware should be used. The type
and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use and
their settings, are all factors that will aect the amount of heat that
will spread to areas beyond the surface elements.
The areas surrounding the elements may become
hot enough to cause burns.
Figure 1
Figure 2
Note: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic glass
cooktop cleaning in the section
and checklist section of this Use and Care
Guide.
Note: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the
element to cycle on and o, even at the HI setting. This
helps to prevent damage to the ceramic glass cooktop.
Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can also occur if
the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the
cookware bottom is not at.
Note: (White glass cooktops only) Due to the high intensity
of heat generated by the surface elements, the glass surface
will turn green when the element is rst turned o. This
phenomenon is normal and the glass will come back to its
original white color after it has completely cooled down.
The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the
temperature rises, the element will glow red. To maintain
the selected setting, the element will cycle on and o. The
heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and
consistent heat during the o cycle.
This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process.
Locations of the Radiant Surface Elements and Controls
Your range is equipped with radiant surface burners with
dierent wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker and
in larger volumes increases as the element wattage increases.
The radiant surface elements are located on the cooktop as
follows:
- two radiant elements located at the right and left
rear positions;
- a triple element located at the right front
position;
- a turbo boil radiant element located at the left front
position.
- a located at the center rear position;
The COOKTOP pad is used to activate the Cooktop Lockout feature which will lock all surface elements from being
accidentally turned ON. This feature will only lock the cooktop.

The Electronic Surface Element Control (ESEC) feature provides a digital display of
the radiant surface elements on the cooktop. The ESEC display in combination with
the touch pads is designed to replace conventional control knobs.
The available ESEC Window Display Settings
The ESEC control will display heat levels ranging from Hi (Figure 1) to Lo (Figure 6)
and OFF (Figure 7). The settings between (Figure 2) and (Figure 3) decrease
or increase in increments of .5 (1/2). The settings between (Figures 3 & 4) and
(Figure 5) are Simmer settings which decrease or increase in increments of .2 (1/5) to
Lo (Figure 6; 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.
The ESEC feature will not operate during a Self-Clean cycle or when the Cooktop
Lockout feature is active. Whenever the Cooktop Lockout feature is active, “”will
appear in any display window (See Figure 8).
The ESEC will display the PF message (Figure 9) whenever there has been a power
interruption to the appliance. The PF message will disappear by itself after a few
seconds.

Setting Surface Controls
When using any of the radiant element positions the cooktop will become very hot. The
hot surface indicator light will turn ON when the element is hot enough to cause burns,
and will remain ON until the cooktop has cooled enough to be safe to touch.
Note: The hot surface message can turn ON when the upper oven is in self-clean
mode.
How the Electronic Surface Element Controls work when the Sabbath feature is ON.
When your Oven Sabbath feature is ON, the Electronic Surface Elements are also in Sabbath mode. This means that all
electronic surface element control displays show “Sb” (Figure 10). The surface elements can be used even if the Sabbath
Feature is on.
To turn ON the surface element, press the ON/OFF button for that element and then press HI or Lo. With the Sabbath
feature active, a surface element will not start heating until 15-30 seconds after you turn it on. The heat setting you have
turned to will not appear in the display because “Sb” is showing there. Any adjustment to the heat setting will also take 15
-30 seconds to go into eect.

The TMradiant element is located at the center rear position (Figure 1).
The purpose of the Warmer Zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Use
the Warmer Zone to keep cooked foods hot such as: vegetables, gravies, casseroles, soups,
stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner plates. Always start with hot food. It is not
recommended to heat cold food on the Warmer Zone.
All food placed on the warmer zone should be covered with a lid to maintain quality. For
best results, when warming pastries or breads, the cover should have an opening to allow
moisture to escape. Do not use plastic wrap or aluminum foil to cover food. Plastic or
aluminum may melt onto the surface.
Refer to the Warmer Zone table for recommended heating levels. If a particular food
is not listed, start with the medium level, and adjust as needed. Most foods can be
kept at serving temperatures by using the medium level.

The Warmer Zone will not glow red when it is hot, but becomes hot enough
to cause burns. Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the warmer
zone as cookware and plates will be hot.
Use only plates, utensils and cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use on the
Warmer Zone.
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple racks, stagger cookware
as shown.
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4” (5-10 cm) around the
cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not
touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. The hot air
must circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to
reach around the food.
Selecting Surface Cooking Cookware
Figure 2
Figure 1
Cookware should have at bottoms that make good contact
with the entire surface heating element. Check for atness
by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (See
Figure 1). Be sure to follow the recommendations for using
cookware as shown in Figure 2.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will inuence the
setting needed for best cooking results.
Cookware Material types
The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom.
The most popular materials available are:
- 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).
- Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
- A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.
Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.
- Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel coating
must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.
- Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.
