Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does the hot surface indicator mean?

A: The cooktop indicator lights stay on as long as the surface is hot to the touch, even if it’s turned off. The lights will turn off automatically once the surface has cooled sufficiently.

Q: How should I use the warming zone?

A: Use the warming zone only to keep hot food warm for up to one hour. Do not use it to reheat cold food, as this can cause foodborne illness.

Q: What type of cookware works best on the glass cooktop?

A: For best results, use flat-bottomed cookware. Cookware that is warped, dented, or rounded on the bottom may cause uneven heating.

Q: What should I do if the oven will not turn on?

A: First, check that the dedicated breaker for the unit is on. If it is, reset the breaker by turning it off for 5 minutes, then turning it back on. If the issue continues, contact a qualified technician to inspect the installation and power supply.

Q: What can I do if the oven temperature seems inaccurate?

A: Make sure your thermometer is properly calibrated. Check the installation, and if the oven’s temperature is consistently off by more than 30°F, service may be required.

Q: What type of power cord does the COS-305AERC use?

A: The COS-305AERC typically comes with a four-prong power cord. Check with a licensed electrician to ensure compatibility with your home’s outlet.
