About the radiant surface elements
The temperature rises gradually and evenly.
As the temperature rises, the radiant
element will glow red. To maintain the
selected setting, the element will cycle on
and off. The heating element retains enough
heat to provide a uniform and consistent
heat during the off cycle. For efficient
cooking, turn off the element several
minutes before cooking is complete. This will
allow residual heat to complete the cooking
process.
NOTE
Radiant elements have a limiter that allows
the element to cycle ON and OFF, even
at the HI setting. This helps to prevent
damage to the ceramic cooktop. Cycling at
the HI setting is normal and can occur if
the cookware is too small for the radiant
element or if the cookware bottom is not
flat.
