Performance Boost Function
This function allows you to increase the heat setting level above the
maximum heat setting 9 for 10 minutes or less.
NOTES:
Performance Boost function is available on only 1 surface cooking
area at a time within a zone. See the following illustrations for
zones.
If you attempt to use Performance Boost on more than one surface
cooking area in the same zone, “P” will briefly flash in the display,
and the first surface cooking area selected for Performance Boost
will automatically be set back to the highest power available
setting. The last surface cooking area selected will be set to
Performance Boost.
1. Check that a surface cooking area has been selected.
2. Touch BOOST. “P” will appear in the display.
3. Touch BOOST keypad when finished. The “P” will no longer be
visible in the display, and the Performance boost function will
no longer be active. The surface cooking area turns back to the
highest available power level.
NOTE: The Performance boost function may automatically
deactivate to keep the internal electronic components of the
cooktop from becoming too hot.

Ceramic Glass
Clean the cooktop after each use to help avoid scratches, pitting,
abrasions and to condition the glass surface. Ceramic glass
cooktop cleaner and a cooktop scraper are also recommended for
stubborn soils. Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or
harsh chemicals for cleaning. The Cooktop Care Kit Part Number
31605 contains all of the items needed to clean and condition your
ceramic glass cooktop. Refer to the “Range Care” section for
additional information.
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the cooktop surface
and to make soils easier to remove, clean the cooktop after each
use to remove all soils.
■
Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. Dropping a heavy
or hard object onto the cooktop could crack the cooktop.
■
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on the
cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped
between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass could
break when the lid is removed.
■
For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills and
soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool down
slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove the spills while
the surface is still warm. If sugary spills are allowed to cool
down, they can adhere to the cooktop and can cause pitting
and permanent marks.
■
To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware across
the cooktop.
■
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that
could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any part
of the entire cooktop.
■
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop as a
cutting board.
■
Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking
area. Cookware should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm)
outside the area. Minimum pan size is also noted on the
cooktop with the inner ring, if applicable.
