Setting Surface Controls

Operating the cooking zones

The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while 

turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. 

The glass surface may be HOT from residual 

heat transferred from the cookware and burns 

may occur.

DO NOT TOUCH HOT COOKWARE or PANS 

directly with hands. Always use oven mitts or 

pot holders to protect hands from burns. 

The Induction cooktop has four or five Cooking Zones 

designed for cookware of various sizes. Be sure to place 

cookware that meets the minimum and maximum pan 

size requirements for the Cooking Zone desired and 

is best for the amount of food being prepared. Place 

the cookware with the prepared food on the Cooking 

Zone 

BEFORE

 setting any of the Cooktop controls.

To Turn ON one or more of the Cooking Zones:
1. 

Place the correctly sized cookware on the desired 

Cooking Zone. Be sure to center the cookware on 

Cooking Zone completely covering the minimum 

area marked on the Zone surface. 

PLEASE NOTE: If the cookware requirements for the 

Cooking Zone (pan wise) are not met, the sensors 

will detect a problem and the power level will flash in 

the display. Any problems must be corrected before 

proceeding.

2. 

Touch and hold the 

POWER

 key pad for 1/2 seconds 

(or until a beep sounds). The Power LED located 

above the 

POWER

 key pad will turn ON. 

NOTE:

 

If no other key pad is touched within 10 seconds 

the request to Power ON the cooktop will clear.

3.

 To start one or more of the Cooking Zones, lightly 

touch the 

ON

.

OFF

 key pad for the Cooking Zones 

needed. A beep will sound and the indicator light 

located above the 

ON

.

OFF

 pad will glow. 

NOTE:

 If 

no other key pad is touched within 10 seconds the 

request to Power ON the Cooktop Zone will clear.

4.

 Set the desired power level for the Cooking Zone 

by using either the 

 or 

 pads. If the “

Power 

Boost

” maximum power level is needed, once you 

power up the Cooking Zone, start by touching the 

 pad and "

Pb

" will be displayed in the Cooking 

Zone Display.

NOTE:

 Once the Cooking Zone power level has been 

set the food will begin to heat at that level until the 

power level is manually changed except for Power 

Boost which will reduce to HI after 10 minutes.

To Turn OFF the Cooking Zones:

1. Once cooking is complete, touch the 

ON

.

OFF

 key 

pad to turn the Cooking Zone OFF.

2. A beep will sound and the chosen Cooking Zone 

power level display will turn off. If no other Cooking 

Zones are active and no other key pads are touched 

the entire cooktop will shut OFF automatically in 

10 more seconds.

3. When any Cooking Zone is OFF, the corresponding 

Cooking Zone display may display 

HE (hot 

element)

 if the Cooking Zone temperature is too 

HOT. The cooking zone display will continue to 

display 

HE 

even if the Cooktop is switched OFF. 

The cooking zone controls will continue to display 

HE 

as long as the cooktop remains HOT.

IMPORTANT OPERATING NOTES:

   Fluids spilled or objects lying on the controls area 

of the cooktop may cause the cooktop to display an 

error code and turn OFF while cooking. Clean the 

spills or remove the objects from the cooktop.

   Be sure the cooktop vent openings are NOT 

blocked. If the vent openings are blocked, the 

cooktop internal sensor may shut OFF the cooktop 

to avoid overheating the appliance.

•   If the cookware or pan is moved from the center of 

any active Cooking Zone for any reason, a sensor 

will detect the situation and the cookware will no 

longer heat. The affected Cooking Zone display 

will  flash  indicating  a  pan  is  not  detected.  The 

Cooking Zone will remember the power level setting 

for up to 3 minutes before the Cooking Zone will 

automatically shut OFF.
