CONTROLS OF INDUCTION COOKTOP
To activate an induction element, first the master power must be turned on by placing and holding
a finger over the circular area next to the master power graphic. An audible beep will be heard
and a light next to the master power graphic will illuminate. Then the desired induction element
must be turned on, by placing a finger over the circular area marked ON/OFF for that element.
The same beep will sound and a light will illuminate. Then the heat level is chosen, by
holding a finger over the circular areas marked with + or -. Touching the + first will incrementally
set the heat level from settings 1 thru 8 with a beep and corresponding number of lights
illuminated. Touching the - first will incrementally set the level from settings 8 thru 1 with a beep
and corresponding number of lights illuminated. When the desired heat level is reached the
finger is removed and the cooktop remains at that heat level. If an induction element is activated,
but no heat level chosen, the element will automatically turn off in 7 seconds.
To change the heat level place finger on + or - graphic of desired induction element to change
heat level incrementally up or down.
To deactivate an element, touch circular area marked ON/OFF to turn the element off. Also the
master power ON/OFF can be touched and the entire cooktop will be deactivated.
NOTE:
If no cookware or a non-magnetic pan is placed on an induction element after activation, the heat
level lights will blink for 30 seconds and the element will turn off automatically. The same will
happen if a pan is removed from the cooktop while cooking. If the pan is returned within the 30
seconds, the cooktop will resume operation at the previous heat level.
HEAT BOOST MODE
Heat boost mode increases power on one induction element by directing power from the other
element. Heat boost is designed for frying foods and can be used to boil water instantly.
To activate Heat Boost, activate the element you wish to use and set heat level to setting 8
(highest). Touch the + one more time and the element will go into heat boost mode. A beep will
be heard and a small light will illuminate near the element indicator graphic. Power from the other
element will automatically be diverted to the element in heat boost mode. If the other element is
on heat level 8 (high) the heat setting will be reduced. This will be seen in the number of lights
illuminated in the heat level graphics.
HOT SURFACE INDICATOR
A hot surface indicator light will illuminate when the induction surface temperature rises above
140
0
F (60
0
C). A light will be seen near the “HOT” graphic for the corresponding element. The
“HOT” light will remain illuminated until the surface temperature is below 133
0
F (56
0
C). The
“HOT” light will continue to operate even when the unit is powered off.
