About the radiant surface units
The radiant cooktop features heating units beneath a
smooth glass surface.
NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new cooktop is
used for the first time. It is caused by the heating of new
parts and insulating materials and will disappear in a
short time.
The cooktop has Rapid Response surface units. The
cooktop will automatically heat up or cool down to
desired power level setting in the quickest time possible.
While the surface units are on, you may not see them
glow red during certain heat up or cool down conditions.
Cooktop temperatures increase with the number of
surface units that are on. With 3 or 4 units turned on,
surface temperatures are high. Always use caution when
touching the cooktop.
Even after the surface units are turned off, the glass
cooktop retains enough heat to continue cooking. To
avoid over-cooking, remove pans from the surface units
when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on the
surface unit until it has cooled completely.
