HOT SURFACE LIGHT INDICATOR
The Hot Surface/ON Indicator Light will remain ON until
a heater has cooled after use, even if cooktop main power is
turned OFF.
WARNING
In the event of a power failure to the home or to
the cooktop, be aware that SURFACES OF HEATERS WILL
REMAIN HOT even though the Hot Surface/ON Indicator
Lights ARE NO LONGER ILLUMINATED. The Hot Surface/
ON Indicator Lights will not come on automatically once power
has been restored.
AUTOMATIC TURN OFF
The maximum length of time a heater will remain ON depends
upon the power level selected.

TIMERS
A total of 5 timers may be set (for the 4 heaters and 1 indepen-
dent). The time can be set between 1 and 99 minutes and changed
at any point during the countdown. The final minute will count
down in seconds on the display.
If using multiple timers, the default timer countdown displayed
will be the timer with the least amount of time, whether it is set
with a specific heater or independent timer. The Indicator Light
Timer ON will blink indicating that this is the time countdown
displayed. (See TIMER DISPLAY for more information.)
If the independent timer countdown has the least amount of time
remaining, it will be the default timer displayed and the Indicator
Light Timer ON light above the TIMER +/- keypad will blink
while the heater indicators will remain solid.
WARNING
This timer functions solely as a reminder and
does not control the cooking time of any heater, nor will it
switch off a heater.
TO SET A TIMER FOR A SPECIFIC HEATER
Select the heater and then either set power level, or touch the
+/- keypads first, and then set the power level before the power
is accepted and the heater begins cooking. The timer and power
levels selected will be automatically accepted 5 seconds after
the last keypad is touched.
The default time displayed for the + keypad begins at 45 min-
utes. Touch +/- to increase in increments of 1 minute up to 99
minutes maximum. The default time displayed for the – keypad
begins at 0 with “00” displayed. If – keypad is touched again,
the countdown will begin at 99 minutes. Touch either keypad
to select increments of 1 minute, after reaching 10 minutes, the
scrolling increases rapidly.
