Installation Instructions
Verifying Proper Operation
Read the accompanying Use and Care Manual completely
before using the cooktop.
This procedure instructs you how to verify the basic opera-
tion of each cook zone. Refer to the Use and Care Manual
to verify operation of other features (e.g., timers, bridge,
boost).
Be sure to use a ferrous (magnetic) pot/pan, and perform
this procedure for all the cooktop cook zones.
IMPORTANT
• Before performing this procedure, clear off the cooktop,
including any tape that may be attached to it.
• Following directions in the Use and Care Manual, clean
the cooking surface.
1. Turn on power to the cooktop at the circuit-breaker
panel or fuse box.
2. Place a 1/4-full pot of water on a cook zone. (Select a
zone that is appropriate to the size of the pot.)
3. On the main control panel, press the power button.
A red dot appears above the main power button, indi-
cating that the cooktop is turned on.
4. On a cook-zone control panel, press the power button.
The
ON
indicator appears.
5. Press the left end of the cook-zone slider.
The
SIM
indicator appears, indicating you have select-
ed Simmer mode.
6. Touch the left end of the cook-zone slider, and slide
your finger back and forth along the slider.
The cook-zone digital readout and heating-level ramp
change each time your finger passes over a heating
level.
7. Select a heating level (higher levels will heat the water
faster), and remove your finger from the slider.
8. When you can see that the water is being heated as
expected, press the cook-zone power button.
The cook zone ON indicator goes out; the cook zone is
turned off.
WARNING
If the cook zone HOT indicator has appeared, it will stay
on until the cook zone is safe to touch without causing a
burn injury.
In testing other cook zones, be careful where you touch
the cooktop surface while any HOT indicators appear.
9. Repeat Steps 4-8 for the remaining cook zones.
10. On the main control panel, press the power button.
The red dot above the power button goes out; the
cooktop is turned off.

bleshooting suggestions:
