NOTES
• Pressing a cooktop ON OFF key only
activates or deactivates a surface cooktop
zone but will not start the heating process.
Activating and powering any surface cooktop
zone requires pressing two keys - the ON
OFF key first and then a power level selection
(+, - or med) must be added before the
cooktop zone will begin heating.
• Any of the cooking zones will begin to heat
ONLY when activated -See Fig 3, pg 16. If a
power level is not added to the active cooking
zone within 10 seconds of being active the
control will automatically deactivate the
cooking zone.
• If activating a surface cooking zone when no
surface cooking zones are active, you will
need to press and hold the ON OFF key for a
few seconds longer than normal before the
first cooking zone will activate. Once any
cooking zone is active, any zones added will
respond immediately.
