Cooktop Operation

HOT SURFACE INDICATOR

As a safety precaution, a hot-surface indicator light will

illuminate when the surface temperature of any one of the

heating elements rises above 150°F (65°C). “HOT” will

illuminate in the control panel display. It will remain illumi-

nated until the entire surface temperature has lowered to a

safe level, even after the cooktop controls are turned off.

TIMER OPERATION

The electric cooktop features a countdown timer located

in the control panel. Refer to the illustration below.

The timer may be set in one-minute increments up to 99

minutes. Once set, the remaining time will be illuminated

in the control panel as it counts down. The timer can be

used anytime the cooktop is not in lock mode.

To turn on the timer, touch

+

on the timer control.

Touch and hold

+

or

until the desired time is reached.

The timer will start 3 seconds after the time is set.

When the timer reaches 0, an audible chime will sound.

The chime will continue to sound until CLEAR is

touched.

UNIVERSAL OFF

To turn off all heating elements at the same time, touch

the universal OFF touch pad on the control panel. Refer to

the illustration below.

COOLING FAN

The electric cooktop is equipped with a cooling fan that

automatically turns on to cool internal parts. The fan will

turn off once internal temperatures have been lowered.

During extended use, the cooling fan may continue to run

even after the cooktop has been turned off until internal

temperatures have been lowered.
