ELECTRIC COOKTOP OPERATION

BEFORE USING THE COOKTOP FOR THE FIRST TIME

•
All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any visible
signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have remained from the manufacturing
process.
•
If present, remove all packing and literature from the cooktop surface.
•
Clean your glass top. A thorough cleaning with a glass top cleaner is
recommended. It only takes a minute and puts a clean, shiny coating on the glass
top before its initial use.
•
There may be a slight odor during the first several uses: this is normal and will
dissipate.
•
Optimum cooking result depends on the proper cookware being selected and
used.
•
The cooking surface will hold the heat and remain hot over 20 minutes after the
elements have been turned off.
•
The glass ceramic cooking surface is a durable material resistant to impact, but
not unbreakable if a pan or other object is dropped on it.
•
Do not use aluminum foil directly on the glass; it will melt and damage the glass
surface.
•
Do not allow pans to boil dry. This can damage the pan, element and /or cooktop.
•
Never cook food directly on the glass.
•
Do not slide cookware across cooking surface it may scratch the glass
•
Using cast iron cookware on the glass cooktop Is not recommended. Cast iron
retains heat and may result in cooktop damage.
•
Food packaged in aluminum foil should not be placed directly on the glass
ceramic surface for cooking; aluminum foil can melt and cause permanent
damage.
