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

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.
