Using the FlexZone Function
The FlexZones within the cooktop are modular, and can be
used either as a single larger zone, or two smaller zones
independently, according to your needs.
Examples of how to use the FlexZone:
Activating the combined FlexZone:
1. To activate the FlexZone as a larger, combined zone,
simply press the FlexZone function button .
2. The power settings will work the same as the other zones.
3. If cookware is moved from one end of the FlexZone to
another, the cooktop will automatically detect where the
cookware has been moved to, and maintain the same level
of power for the new placement.
4. To add another pot to the FlexZone, press the FlexZone
button again in order for the zone to detect the new piece
of cookware.
Operating the FlexZone as two independent zones:
To operate the modular FlexZone as two independent zones,
simply press either of the two halves of the FlexZone button.
The half of the button will activate the bottom zone, while
the half will activate the top zone.
