SAFETY THERMAL CUTOUT
Another safety feature of the induction cooktop is the thermal cutout. If the temperature of either
induction element reaches 518
0
F (270
0
C), the thermal cutout will open and power to both
induction elements will be turned off. This is an important safety feature designed to reduce the
risk of runaway temperatures and possible risk of fire if a pot is boiled dry or unintentionally put
on the cooktop empty.
MASTER OFF
To power off both induction elements simultaneously, touch the circular area next to the master
power ON/OFF graphic. Refer to figure C. This can be done without deactivation of the induction
elements if any are in operation, and is an important safety feature allowing the user a “one touch
off” in case of emergencies. All functions will no longer operate until the master power is turned
on again.
