Your beautiful new ceramic glass cook top
provides you with the best possible cooking
surface, ease of maintenance, excellent
performance and style. Cooking on-board
has never been this easy.
The cooking surface areas on your Kenyon
ceramic glass cook top are identified by
permanent patterns in the cook top. To
keep your cook top looking like new, follow
these simple guidelines for use and
cleaning:
Cooking Utensils
Chances are your existing utensils are just
fine for use on your Kenyon ceramic glass
cook top. Cooking on ceramic glass does
not require special pots or pans. But since
utensils play an important part in the
efficiency of your cooking here is what to
look for to get the most out of your Kenyon
ceramic glass cook top.
The utensil should have a slightly concave
or flat bottom. Although glass and other
types of cookware can be used, metal
cookware with thick bottoms will generally
conduct the heat best.
Use utensils of the correct diameter only.
The base of the pot or pan you use should
be about as wide as the cooking zone on
which it is used - not much wider or
narrower. This will provide maximum
heating efficiency and give you the shortest
possible boiling times.
Make sure that both the cook top panel and
the bottom of your utensil are clean and dry
before using. Doing so will help prevent
scratches and stains.
Knobs and Indicator Lights
The cooking area controls are called infinite
controls. This type of control has an infinite
selection of heat settings. The control
settings begin at high and decrease heat
output as you turn the knob clockwise.
There is a series of lights which provide
indication of burner operation and hot
surface. These lights are located adjacent
to the control knobs. When the control is in
the on position a red light is lit indicating
which burner is on.
For your safety we have incorporated a
“HOT” indicator light. When lit, this indicates
that some part of the cooking surface is too
warm to touch. Do not place articles other
than cooking utensils on the cooking
surface while this light is glowing.
Cleaning
We have worked hard to make your Kenyon
ceramic glass cook top look great. You can
help make sure it stays that way by
following these easy-care tips.
Clean the cook top before the first
time you use it.
A thorough cleaning with a recommended
cook top cleaner (such as Cerama-Brite
Cook top Cleaner) will get your new cook
top off to a good start. It takes just a minute
and puts a clean, shiny coating on the cook
top before its initial use.
Always remove food spills, grease spatters
and metal rub-off from utensils. First, use a
razor blade scraper to remove all spill-
overs. Then clean the cook top with a paper
towel or a clean soft cloth and a
