DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped with
a metal ring that extends beyond the surface element.
Because this ring traps heat, the surface element and
cooktop surface could be damaged.
Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets. Cookware bottoms
must be in direct contact with the surface cooking areas.
DO NOT use two surface cooking areas, if
your appliance is not equipped with a bridge element, to
heat one large pan such as a roaster or griddle. DO NOT
allow cooking utensils to boil dry. Either of these situations
could damage the glass ceramic cooktop.
Selecting Surface Cooking Cookware
Figure 1
Cookware should have at bottoms that make good contact
with the entire surface heating element. Check for atness
by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (See
Cookware Material types
The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly
heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan
bottom. The most popular materials available are:
ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of
food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware
resists staining & pitting). If aluminum pans slide across the
ceramic glass cooktop, they may leave metal marks which
will resemble scratches. Remove these marks immediately.
COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May
leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).
STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven
cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
CAST IRON - A poor heat conductor however will retain
heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is
reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.

PORCELAIN-ENAMEL on METAL - Heating characteristics
will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel
coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic
cooktops.
GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for
ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.
Important note:
Do not place empty aluminum, glass or porcelain-enamel
coated cookware on the ceramic cooktop! The melting point
of cookware made with these materials may be reached
quickly especially if left empty & they may bond to the
ceramic cooktop. If the cookware melts it will damage the
cooktop! Be sure to follow all the cookware manufacturer’s
suggestions when using any type of cookware on the
ceramic cooktop.
Using Woks
For ceramic glass cooktop models, use only at bottomed
woks (without support rings).

Setting Surface Controls
General Cooktop Information
About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements
located below the surface of the glass. The design of the
ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface element
underneath. Make sure the diameter of the pan matches the
diameter of the element outline on the cooktop.
Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop
to the cookware. Only at-bottom cookware should be
used. The type and size of cookware, the number of surface
elements in use and their settings, are all factors that will
aect the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond
the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements
may become hot enough to cause burns.
About the Radiant Surface Elements
The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the
temperature rises, the element will glow red. To maintain
the selected setting, the element will cycle on and o. The
heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform
and consistent heat during the o cycle. For energy ecient
cooking, turn o the element several minutes before cooking
is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the
cooking process.
Locations of the Radiant Surface Elements and
Controls
Your cooktop is equipped with radiant surface elements with
dierent wattage ratings. The ability to heat food quicker
and in larger volumes increases as the element wattage
increases.
The radiant surface elements are located on the 30”
cooktop as follows (See Fig. 1):
• One small 6 inch radiant element located at the right
rear position.
• One double 9 inch radiant element located at the right
front position.
• One 7 inch radiant element located at the left rear
position.
• One Bridge radiant element located on the left side.
NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for ceramic
glass cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning
section and Before You Call checklist section of this Use
and Care Guide.
NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the
element to cycle on and o to maintain consistent heat
even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to
the ceramic cooktop. Cycling is normal and will occur
even more often if the cookware is too small for the
radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not at
(For information concerning cookware, refer to Use
Proper Cookware on page 6 of this Use and Care
Guide).
NOTE: (White glass cooktops only). Due to the high intensity
of heat generated by the surface elements, the glass
surface will turn green when the element is turned o. This
phenomenon is normal and the glass will come back to its
original white color after it has completely cooled down.

4. Press ELEMENT SIZE keypad and toggle to select the
front portion (Fig. 2), the front and center portion (Fig.
3) or the entire (Fig. 4) bridge element.
5. Touch
pad once to turn ON the power level to 9
(Hi). Touch pad once for 1 (Lo).
6. Each touch of the or pad will increase or
decrease the power level from 1 through 9. Half power
levels (available between 1 and 7 power level) are
indicated by lighting the display decimal point. Note:
The power level may be adjusted at any time while the
element is ON.
7. When cooking has been completed touch the
pad
once to turn the element OFF and if no other surface
element is used touch the
key pad to turn o the
cooktop. Note: The H (hot element) message will remain
ON if the cooktop is still hot and will remain ON until
the heating surface area has cooled suciently.
Hot Element Indicator Message
After using any of the radiant element positions the cooktop
will become very hot. Even after setting the controls to OFF,
the cooktop will remain hot for some time. The cooktop
control monitors the temperature of the cooktop and displays
the message “H” (hot element) warning when the cooktop is
still too hot to touch. If the H message appears in the window,
the control can still be turned on again for use.
Radiant surface elements may appear to
have cooled after they have been turned o. The glass
surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass
surface is touched before it has cooled suciently.
Do not place aluminum foil, plastic items
such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These items
could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons
could catch re if placed too close to the surface elements.
Important notes:
• If no element size is chosen when the bridge element is
turned ON, only the front coil will heat by default.
• Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and
then turn to a lower setting to nish cooking.
• For ecient cooking, turn the surface element OFF
several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow
residual heat to complete the cooking process.
• A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the
bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is
too small for the surface heating area.
• Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the radiant
heating element to cycle ON and OFF, even at the 9
(hi) setting. This helps prevent damage to the ceramic
cooktop. Cycling at the 9 (HI) setting is normal and will
occur more often if the cookware is too small for the
radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not at.
Warm & Hold Feature
The Warm & Hold feature may be used with any of the
Cooking Elements.
To Turn the Warm & Hold Feature ON:
1. To select the Warm & Hold feature for any Cooking
Element touch the key pad for the corresponding
Cooking Element.
2. Touch the
key pad located in the main control area.
The associated display will show L (low heat) indicating
that the Cooking Element is properly set to Warm & Hold.
If no other key pads are pressed the control will activate
the desired Cooking Element at the Warm & Hold setting.

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining
your Ceramic glass cooktop
Prior to using your cooktop for the rst time, apply the
recommended CookTop® Cleaning Creme to the ceramic
surface (on the web visit www.sears.com for replacement
cooktop cleaner, item number 40079). Bu with a non-
abrasive cloth or no-scratch cleaning pad. This will make
cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special
cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective nish on the
glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the
cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface.
These marks should be removed immediately after the
cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream.
Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to
future use.
General Care & Cleaning
Cleaning Various Parts of Your Cooktop
Before cleaning any part of the cooktop, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the cooktop is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS
AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANINGS NOW WILL REDUCE THE DIFFICULTY AND EXTENT
OF A MAJOR CLEANING LATER.
Surfaces How to Clean
Aluminum (Trim Pieces) Use hot, soapy water and a cloth or paper towel. Dry with a clean cloth.
Painted and Plastic
Control Knobs, Body Parts, and
Decorative Trim
For general cleaning, use hot soapy water and a cloth. For more dicult soils and
built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to
60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on any of
these materials; they can scratch or dull the nish.
Stainless Steel, Chrome parts
Decorative Trim Cooktop
Clean with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and cloth. Do
not use cleaners with high concentrations of chlorides or chlorines. Do not use harsh
scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners that are especially made for cleaning
stainless steel. Always be sure to rinse the cleaners o from the surface as bluish stains
may occur during heating that cannot be removed.
Ceramic Glass Cooktop See Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance in this Use & Care Guide.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough
bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not
slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not
use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the
kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface
without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the
glass cooktop, because they may cause it to crack.
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic
Glass Cooktop
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the
controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot
cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and
can chemically damage the ceramic glass surface.
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly
to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive
plastic type no-scratch pad to clean the entire cooktop
surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly,
leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to
the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive
plastic type no-scratch pad, applying pressure as needed.
Do not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for any
other purpose.

Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic
Glass Cooktop
General Care & Cleaning
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor
blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to
the surface. Reapply CookTop® Cleaning Creme and bu
surface clean.
Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:
• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such
as metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch the
cooktop, making it more dicult to clean.
• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach,
ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor
the cooktop.
• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they
can leave soil or lint on the cooktop which can burn and
cause discoloration.
Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking
Utensils
• Aluminum foil
Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not
use under any circumstances.
• Aluminum utensils
Since the melting point of aluminum is much lower than
that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum
pots or pans are used. Pans that boil dry may perma-
nently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing to, or mark-
ing it.
Care and Cleaning of Stainless Steel (some
models)
Some models are equipped with stainless steel exterior
parts. Special care and cleaning are required for maintain-
ing the appearance of stainless parts. Refer to the General
Care & Cleaning table for detailed cleaning instructions.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop
may occur if you use an abrasive type scratch pad. Only use
cleaning products that have been specically designed for
ceramic glass cooktop.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled
or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent
damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur
if not removed immediately. After turning the surface
elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula
with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as
illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same
method for heavy or burned on soils.
