THE ELEMENT AND POT.
NOTE: Using a 12” diameter or larger pan/pot may cause damage to the element or internal wiring. Such
damages are not covered by warranty. Two (2) heating elements are used. For the SEHPS each element
draws 2,600 Watts on 240 Volts and 1,950 Watts on 208 Volts. The right control knob controls the rear
cooking element and the left control knob controls the front cooking element. On “HI” the element delivers
uninterrupted full heat. Between “LO” and “5” any desired amount of heat can be obtained between 6%
and 60% of full heat.
Signal lights are provided above the control knobs to give a visual check if either one or both heating
units are turned on.
