Sensor Boil
The Sensor Boil function automatically selects the ideal power
level to boil water and has an audible beep when boiling is
reached. Sensor Boil is available only on one surface cooking
area. See the following illustrations for which surface cooking
area has Sensor Boil for your cooktop.

When using Sensor Boil:
■
Use only water at room temperature.
■
Do not add salt or any other ingredients to water until boiling
is reached.

cooking area is hot.

■
Fill the pot at least one-third of the way full with at least
4 cups (946 mL) of water but not up to the brim. Do not use
Sensor Boil with more than approximately 5 qt (5 L) for
36" (91.4 cm) models, or 7 qt (7 L) for 30" (76.2 cm) models.

For best results, use pots with a diameter between
9½" (24 cm) and 11" (28 cm) for 30" (76.2 cm) models. Use
pots with a diameter between 6½" (17 cm) and 7½" (19 cm)
for 36" (91.4 cm) models.
