[. . . ] The burner rings and touch controls are fused into the ceramic glass and are resistant to wear if properly maintained. Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads, as they may eventually wear off the rings. ­ For the most even and energy efficient cooking, the diameter of the pots/pans should match the diameter of the burners as closely as possible. ­ Use cookware with thick, flat, smooth bottoms. Pans with convex bottoms will not cook well. ­ Using a lid while cooking will minimize the loss of heat and decrease the cooking time. 18 Selecting cookware Copper bottom and aluminum pans may leave a residue on the cooktop in the form of metallic lines. These lines can be removed using a non-abrasive ceramic cooktop cleaner or a shielded scraper blade. Each time this residue is allowed to melt it becomes harder to remove and may mar the appearance of the cooktop. Let the cooktop cool before cleaning. Cast iron, glass or stoneware should not be used because they have poor heat transfer and may scratch the cooktop surface. 19 Timer The cooktop has a timer which can be used to time activities in the kitchen and/or automatically turn off the burners.
