Adjusting the Timer
Once you set a timer (for a cook zone or independent
timing task), you can adjust the time as needed.
NOTE
On the main display, you can press an arrow button repeatedly
(for small adjustments), or you can hold down an arrow button
(for large adjustments) to rapidly adjust the time. When holding
down the up-arrow, the numbers increase 1 minute at a time;
when holding down the down-arrow, the numbers decrease 10
seconds at a time.
1. On the main control panel, simultaneously press the
up-/down-arrow buttons.
The timer-display countdown pauses.
2. Press the desired arrow repeatedly to adjust the time.
Countdown resumes from the newly set time.
Checking the Time On Another Cook Zone
If you have set the cook time on multiple cook zones, the
main control panel shows the time for the zone with the
least amount of time remaining. This procedure instructs
you how to check the time remaining on the other cook
zones.
1. On the main control panel, simultaneously press the
up-/down-arrows.
The displayed time changes to the cook zone with
the most recently set time; that zone’s timer indicator
brightens. (All other indicators are dimmed.)
2. Simultaneously press the up-/down-arrows again to
view the time for the next most recently set cook zone.
The displayed time changes to that zone, and its timer
indicator brightens while all others are dimmed.
Manually Turning OFF the Timer
There is no power button that immediately turns off the
timer. To turn off the timer before the set time runs out:
1. Simultaneously press the up-/down-arrows.
The timer countdown pauses.
2. Press-hold the down-arrow until the timer display runs
down to zero, and remove your finger.
In 5 seconds the timer countdown display turns off; the
timer indicator near the cook-zone power-level display
disappears.
About Pause Mode
After setting the power level on one or more cook zones,
you can interrupt cooktop operation if needed via the
Pause button on the main control panel. (This procedure
starts after you have set one or more cook zones.)
NOTE
• Pause mode is only active for 10 minutes at a time, after
which the cooktop shuts itself off. (Power settings established
before entering Pause mode are not retained.
• All alarm timers stop when you enter Pause mode and
resume when you manually leave Pause mode. (See
previous paragraph.)
♦ On the main control panel, press the Pause button.
The control panels of all cook zones (whether the
zones are active or not) display a Pause symbol
on their digital readouts; power to cook zones is
suspended; no heating occurs.
To resume operations after pausing:
1. On the main control panel, press the Pause button.
The power-level ramp on the right-front cook zone
control panel cycles rapidly left to right.
