Available Power Level Settings
LED bars display the element’s power level
settings, raging from 1 to 9 to Boost. Adjust the
settings in increments of one, from 1 to Boost.
To select 9, turn the knob clockwise to 9.
%
Boost Power Level
To activate the Boost mode, turn the knob
counterclockwise from Off to 9. Boost mode is only
available immediately after activating a cooking
element. When the cooking element is set to the
Boost mode, the LED bar flashes and the Boost
mode stays in operation for up to 10 minutes. After
10 minutes, the cooking element automatically
returns to level 9. When Boost mode is set on one
induction element, turning on the other element
cancels Boost mode on the first.
The maximum operating time for all element levels
except the Boost mode is 12 hours.
Hot Surface Indicator
The hot surface indicator light glows as long as any
surface cooking area is too hot to touch.
It remains on after the element is turned off and until
the surface has cooled to approximately 120 °F(50 °C).
It is normal for the surface elements to cycle on and
off when cooking at lower temperature settings.
