Cohesive Behavior Problem

I am trying to run a dynamic explicit job on Abaqus where there are 3 different instances of flat surfaces that are glued to each other. I have tried to model this using a surface to surface contact where the interaction applied uses Cohesive Behavior. I keep getting an error that says "Surface based COHESIVE BEHAVIOR cannot be used for contact pair interactions. See the surface interaction named INTPROP-1". What steps should I take to troubleshoot this since I am pretty sure Cohesive Behavior should be able to be used for this situation?
