Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.
Hot Surface Indicator
An “H” will appear in the heat setting display as long as any
surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface
cooking area(s) is turned off.
If the cooktop is on when a power failure occurs, the Hot Surface
Indicator “H” will remain on up to 45 minutes after the power is
restored to the cooktop.
Turning off display tones:
The display will cause a tone to sound when a key is touched.
This setting can be turned off.
NOTE:
If the following sequence is not completed within
90 seconds, the tones will not be deactivated.
1.
Set all surface cooking areas to heat setting level 3.
2.
Use the “-” key to set all surface cooking areas to heat setting
level 0, from right to left.
3.
Touch and hold COOKTOP POWER OFF for 5 seconds, and a
tone will sound to confirm the change.
To turn the display back on, repeat the steps above.
NOTE:
The timer, control lock/unlock, and error tones will still
sound even if the display tone is turned off.
Dual Size Surface Cooking Area
The dual size surface cooking area offers flexibility to cook using
different sizes of cookware. Single size can be used in the same
way as a regular surface cooking area. The dual size combines
inner and outer surface cooking areas and is recommended for
larger cookware, large quantities of food, and home canning.
The dual size surface cooking area comprises two cooking areas.
If the size of the pan is the same as the single size surface
cooking area, the cooking area will work as a single size cooking
area.
If the pan is slightly larger than the single size cooking area, it
may only activate part of the dual size cooking area. This will
result in the burner being less efficient and increase the heating
time.
If the size of the pan is the same as the dual size surface cooking
area, the dual size cooking area will activate automatically.
Cooktop Power Off
The Cooktop Power Off key turns off all surface cooking areas at
once.
Touch and hold COOKTOP POWER OFF until the indicator goes
out. This turns off all the surface cooking areas. The hot surface
indicator “H” stays on the display until the surface cooking areas
have cooled down.
Control Lock
The Control Lock turns off and disables all surface cooking areas
that are in use at the same time.
The Control Lock avoids unintended use of the surface cooking
areas. When the cooktop is locked out, the surface cooking areas
cannot be turned on by the cooktop touch controls.
To Lock Cooktop:
Touch and hold CONTROL LOCK for
5 seconds. After 5 seconds, CONTROL LOCK will glow red,
indicating that the cooktop controls are in the lockout position.
To Unlock Cooktop:
Touch and hold CONTROL LOCK for
5 seconds.
Keep Warm Function
The keep warm function can be used to keep cooked foods
warm.
When the keep warm function is in use, “h” will appear on the
display.
