Power sharing
Your cooktop is equipped with four induction Cooking
Zones controlled by two heating sections. The left-hand
(Cooking Zones 1 & 2) and the right-hand (Cooking Zones 3
& 4) heating sections are powered by two independent
induction inverters - one inverter for each of the two
heating sections (See Figs. 1 & 2).
Two Cooking Zones in a heating section share the power of
one inverter. This is called
power sharing
.
For example, if 2 pans are heating on Cooking Zones 1 and
2 (left-hand side of cooktop) at the same time, the last
power level set will be maintained, while the first pan may
experience a slight reduction in the power level setting.
Induction Cooking Zones
Power sharing tips:
• When cooking two food items simultaneously on the
same side of the cooktop remember to set the power
level for the food item you wish to maintain last.
• To maintain power levels for two food items heating at
the same time, place one pan on Cooking Zone 1 or 2,
and place the other pan on Cooking Zone 3 or 4. This
way the cooktop sensors will use both inverters and
power level reductions are avoided (See Fig. 3).
