6.3.2
Set and Current Temperatures
Set the desired temperature by turning the control knob and the unit is
immediately ready
for operation. You
can adjust the temperature in an increment of 5
o
F (1
o
C), from 122-212
o
F (50-100
o
C). The digital display
underneath the Ceran glass shows the set temperature initially and then followed by the current/actual
temperature.
ON-Position
Any position where
“0”/Line is not
pointing straight up.
OFF-Position
“0” / Line is pointing
straight up.
6.3.3
Digital Display
Temperature followed by a dot:
When you turn the control knob, the digital display shows the selected temperature with a dot.
Within two (2) seconds, the display shows the actual temperature.
Temperature followed by a blinking dot:
The blinking dot indicates the induction zone is active and the current temperature is displayed.
This means the system has detected a pan in the heating zone and energy is being transferred
to the pan.
Temperature shown without a dot:
The display shows the actual temperature and the induction coil is dormant; no energy is being
transferred from the system to the induction pan at the moment or the system cannot detect an
induction pan.
NOTE
Unit with more than one heat retaining plate (RTCSmp HOIN900/1350/1800):
To maximize efficiency with minimal resources, power cycles through the heat retaining plates at set
intervals. This means when one plate is active and the temperature is shown with a blinking dot, the other
plates lay dormant with temperatures shown without dots. This is normal. However, ensure you are using
proper induction pans on the plates.
To shutdown the unit
, simply turn the control knob to the OFF-position. If the ambient temperature is over
122
o
F (50
o
C), the display shows “
hot
”. Otherwise, the display is off.
6.4
No Pan No Heat
When a temperature is chosen, the induction unit only transmits energy when a pan is placed in the heating zone.
If you remove the pan from the heating zone, power transfer stops immediately. If the pan is put back in the
heating zone, power is transferred to the pan again.
Note that pan with a bottom diameter smaller than 5”(12 cm) is not detected by the system.
After switching the unit off, there is no heat retained inside the unit.
6.5
When Unit is Not In Use
Best Practice
: If the induction unit is not in use, ensure the control knob is in the 0 (OFF) position.
Switch the unit OFF if you take the cookware away for a while. This will prevent the heating process to
start automatically and unintentionally when a pan is placed back on the heating area. If any person
needs to use the induction unit, he/she will have to turn the unit ON intentionally.
