BEFORE FIRST USE CLEAN COOKTOP (See p.10). For best results, always use recommended
Make sure bottom of cookware is clean before placing on cooktop. Covering pans, whenever possible, speeds cooking and is more energy efficient. This is especially important when cooking large quantities of foods. The glass ceramic cooking area retains heat for a period of time after the elements have been turned off. Put this retained heat to good use. Turn the elements off a few minutes before food is completely cooked and use the retained heat to complete the cooking. Because of this heat retention characteristic, the elements will not respond to changes in heat settings as quickly as coil elements. In the event of a potential boil over, remove the cookpot from the cooking area.

IMPORTANT
� � � � � Do not use wire trivets, fire rings, pads or any such item between the cookware and the element. Do not cook foods directly on cooktop. Do not allow pan to boil dry as this could damage the cooktop and the pan. Do not slide heavy metal or glass cookpots across surface since these may scratch the surface. Do not use or place plastic items anywhere on cooktop.
