3 Cooktop Safety Your safety is important to us. This guide contains safety statements under warning symbols. Please pay special attention to these symbols and follow any instructions given.
4 COOKTOP SAFETY • Do not wear loose or hanging garments when using the cooktop. They could ignite if they touch a hot surface unit and you could be burned. • Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces could result in burns from steam.
5 Grease • Grease is flammable. Do not allow grease to collect around cooktop. Wipe spillovers immediately. • Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming pan by covering with a well-fitted lid, cookie sheet, or flat tray.
6 Optional ceramic surface unit accessory (p.n. RCM30DB/DQ) (pp. 16-22) Optional coil surface unit accessory (p.n. RCM10DB/DQ) (pp. 9-15) (Model RC8720ED comes with nonremovable coil surface units) Control panel (pp. 7, 8) Vent Chamber Drain jars (Model RC8720ED only has one jar, in the left bay.
7 Controls Using Your cooktop’s easy-to-use controls will work for all of the accessories. Please review this section before cooking with your cooktop to learn the few basics you’ll need to use them correctly. Turning the knobs Push down on control knobs before turning them to a setting.

9 Coil Elements Installing You can install extra coil elements in the left basin (Model RC8720ED) or both basins (Model RC8700ED) of your cooktop. To get the coil element accessory, order Part Number .
10 COIL ELEMENTS To remove: 1. Make sure the control knobs are turned off and the cooktop is cool. Terminal receptacle 2. Lift up on the “tab” located on the accessory until the top of the accessory clears the opening of the cooktop by about two inches.
11 Using Cookware tips • Select a pan that is about the same size as the surface unit. • NOTE: For best results and greater energy efficiency, use only flat-bottomed cookware that makes good contact with the surface units.
12 Home canning information To protect your cooktop: • Use flat-bottomed canners/pans for best results. • Use the largest surface unit for best results. Also, use a canner/pan which can be centered over the surface unit and which does not extend more than one inch outside surface unit area.
13 COIL ELEMENTS Caring for coil elements Your coil element cooktop is designed for easy care. You can do most cleaning with items found around your home. Cleaning your coil element cooktop whenever spills or soiling occurs will help to keep it looking and working like new.
14 Replacing 1. Make sure all surface units are off and cool before replacing surface units and reflector bowls. 2. Line up openings in the reflector bowl with the surface unit receptacle. 3. Hold the surface unit as level as possible with the terminal just started into the receptacle.

16 Terminal plug Terminal receptacle 4. Slide the accessory towards the recep- tacle until the terminal plug is firmly set in receptacle. 5. Lower the opposite end of the accessory into the cooktop until it is flush with the surface.
17 CERAMIC SURFACE UNITS To remove: 1. Make sure the control knobs are turned off and the cooktop is cool. 2. Lift up on the “tab” located on the accessory until the top of the accessory clears the opening of the cooktop by about two inches. Lifting the accessory too high while still set firmly in receptacle could damage the terminal plug.
18 Using Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop is almost the same as cooking on coil surface units. There are, however, a few differences: • The surface unit will glow red when it is turned on. You will see the element cycling on (glowing red) and off – even on HI setting – to maintain the proper tempera- ture setting you have selected.
19 Home canning information • Acceptable canning pots should not be oversized and must have a flat bottom. • Use the largest surface unit for best results. Also, use a canner/pan which can be centered over the surface unit. • Start with hot water.
20 Caring for ceramic surface units This cooktop is designed for easy care. However, ceramic cooktops need to be maintained differently than standard electric open-coil elements. Foods spilled directly on the cooktop will not burn off as on open-coil elements.
21 Cleaning tips What to use: • Cooktop Polishing Creme with paper towel or clean, damp sponge – This creme has been developed especially for cleaning and protecting your cooktop. When using, follow instructions on con- tainer. • Razor scraper – Use to remove cooked- on soils from your ceramic cooktop.

To get the grill accessory, order Part Number RCM20DB from a Whirlpool service company or dealer (see Step 2 on page 38) or call the Whirlpool Consumer Assistance Center toll-free 1-800-253-1301.
24 To remove: 1. Make sure the control knobs are turned off and the grill is cool. 2. Remove the grill grates. 3. Pull the grill element away from the receptacle until it is unplugged. Remove the grill-rocks. NOTE: Lifting the element too high while the plug is still in the receptacle could damage the plug.
25 Using Before you use the grill for the first time: 1. Wash with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry. Never use a metal scrubbing pad or gritty cleanser on the grill; these will damage the nonstick surface. 2. After cleaning, lightly wipe the cooking surface with cooking oil.
26 Grilling tips (continued) • If meat begins to cook too quickly, turn the grill control knob to a lower setting. • Grease drippings will ignite occasionally to produce harmless puffs of flame for a second or two.
27 Grill chart Preheat on HI for 5 or 10 minutes for best flavor. Cooking times and control settings are approximate due to differences in meats and electrical voltage. Use the following chart as a guide to determine which cooking times and settings work best for you.
28 COOKING TIME (in minutes) 20-30 10-15 8-12 2-4 2-3 SETTING 10 10 10 HI 10 COMMENTS Brush with butter. Turn after half the time. Start skin side down. Brush with butter. Turn after half the time. Turn and brush with butter or marinade often. Turn after half the time.
29 GRILL HOW TO CLEAN • Wash, rinse, and dry well. Clean often or after any large build-up of grease. You can wash grill-rocks in a dishwasher instead if you have first removed burned-on soil. • For heavy soil, soak in hot, soapy water mixed with cleanser, such as household ammonia.
30 Griddle Installing You can install a griddle accessory on the left basin of your cooktop (and in the right basin of model RC8700ED). To use this accessory you must have grill accessory Part Number RCM20DB.
31 Using Before using the griddle for the first time: 1. Wash griddle in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry well. 2. Preheat griddle for five minutes at the settings shown in the “Griddle chart” on page 32. 3. After preheating, lightly wipe the top of the griddle with cooking oil.
32 Griddle chart Preheat for five to ten minutes at the set- tings listed below. Do not preheat on HI. Griddling times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted to get the taste and/or GRIDDLE doneness you want. Also, low voltage and elements not close enough to the griddle may affect the cooking times and control settings.
33 NOTE: Let cooktop cool before cleaning. You must clean your griddle after each use to keep the finish in good shape. Caring for griddle GRIDDLE WHAT TO USE Warm, soapy water and a nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad Warm, soapy water and a nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad OR Dishwasher HOW TO CLEAN • Wash once griddle has cooled.
34 V ent Using The built-in vent system removes cooking vapors, odors, and smoke from foods prepared on the cooktop, grill, and griddle. The vent system will go on by itself when the grill element or griddle is being used. To turn on the vent system yourself: • Turn the vent fan knob to ON.
35 Caring for vent w W ARNING Electrical Shock Hazard Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing the cooktop. Turn fan and cooktop controls off before cleaning the vent system. Do not put hand into vent when fan or controls are on. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, electrical shock, serious injury, or cuts.
