Auto-heat
When Auto-heat has been activated,
the burner switches on automatically at
the highest setting and then switches to
the continued power level which was
selected. The "heat-up" time depends
on which continued power level has
been chosen (see table).

The higher continued cooking settings
are generally used for frying, a short
heat-up time is needed to heat up the
pan initially.
Taking a pan off the burner while
Auto-heat is in operation interrupts the
function. It will resume if a pan is
placed back on the burner within
3 minutes.
Activating Auto-heat
^
Turn the control knob
counterclockwise as far as it will go
and hold until an
A
appears in the
display.
If the knob is held too long, an
L
will
appear in the display and the Lock
is activated (see "Child safety lock").
^
Turn the control knob clockwise to
the desired continued power level.
If a continued power level is not
selected within 5 seconds, the
Auto-heat feature is not activated.
Once Auto-heat has been activated the
continued power level must be set
within 10 seconds. After this time the
level cannot be changed.
Changing the continued power level
after 10 seconds will deactivate the
Auto-heat function.
During the Auto-heat phase an
A
will
show in the display.
