Ceramic Glass Cooktop (continued)

TYPES OF HEATING UNITS USED (continued)

EXPANDABLE RADIANT HEATING UNITS (some models)

This heating unit combines the characteristics of a small and a large regular radiant heating unit. Its principal

advantage is to allow small and large utensils to be used on the same heating unit, therefore increasing the

cooktop flexibility.

Heat power levels are adjusted by a special control knob that has a dual set of graduations; for small utensils

use the small graduations; the inner surface only will be heating. For larger utensils use the larger graduations;

the whole surface will be heating.

The hot surface and surface indicator lights will glow when the heating unit is turned ON.

HALOGEN HEATING UNITS (some models)

The halogen element is similar to the radiant element with the addition of a halogen lamp to the heating coil

The lamp immediately heats up and glows bright red when the element is turned on. Cook time is improved.

10-Step Halogen Element (some models)

The control for this type of element can be set in 10 different heating positions.

Each position causes the element to operate continuously at a fixed power output

”MIN or 1“ is the lowest setting, ”MAX or HI“ is the highest.

Infinite Step Halogen Element (some models)

The control for this type of element can be set anywhere between positions ”MIN

or 1“ and ”MAX or HI“.

HOT SURFACE INDICATOR LIGHT (some models)

Some models have an indicator light located on the ceramic glass cooktop that glows as soon

as the glass begins to warm up. When the heating unit is tuned off, it will continue to glow

as long as the glass remains warm enough to cause burns. Other models have 4 hot surface

indicators (one per element) arranged in a cluster. Their location is as shown in the illustration.

SPECIAL CAUTION FOR ALUMINUM FOIL

AND ALUMINUM COOKING UTENSILS

1) Aluminum foil

Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any circumstances.

2) Aluminum utensils

The melting point of aluminum being much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are

used. If allowed to boil dry, not only will the utensil be ruined, but also permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusing or marking

may affect the ceramic glass surface.
