Radiant Elements
Bosch UltraSpeed
TM
radiant elements use a wire
ribbon located under the ceramic glass surface to
provide the heat for cooking. These radiant elements
will cycle on and off by design (see
Temperature
Limiters , below.) There are 9 heat setting positions
from 9 (high) to 1 (low) and a special setting for keep
warm.
Dual Element
The dual element consists of two radiant ribbon
elements within the same heating area. Either the small
inner element or both the inner and outer elements
may be selected for use, depending on the size of
cookware. (See page 7.)
Temperature Limiters
Each UltraSpeed heating element has its own sensor
to protect the glass cooking surface from extreme
high temperatures. The limiters will operate
automatically by cycling the element on and off
regardless of the cook setting.
Although cycling is normal, any one of the following
conditions can activate the limiter and cause it to
cycle on and off more than usual:
•
The base of the pan is not making full contact
with the heating surface (due to a warped or
uneven base).
• The pan is too small for the size of the element.
• The pan has boiled dry.
• The material or shape of the pan is slow to
transfer the heat.
