Temperature Control and Display
Set the desired temperature by turning the control knob and the unit is
immediately ready
for operation. You
can adjust the temperature in an increment of 5
o
F (1
o
C), from 122-212
o
F (50-100
o
C). The digital Display
underneath the Ceran glass shows the set and current temperatures.
ON-Position
Any position where
“0”/Line is not pointing
straight up.
OFF-Position
“0” / Line is
pointing straight
up.
Digital Display:
Temperature followed by a dot: When you turn the control knob, the digital display shows the
selected temperature followed by a dot. Within 2 seconds, the display will show the actual temperature.
Temperature followed by a blinking dot: The blinking dot indicates the induction zone is
active and the current temperature is displayed. This means the system has detected a pan in the heating
zone and energy is being transferred to the pan.
Temperature without a dot: The display shows the actual temperature and the induction coil
is dormant. This means no energy is being transferred.
NOTE
If you are using both heating zones at the same time, note that power is cycled from one zone to
another. This means when the left zone is active and the dot blinks, the right zone is dormant and
its temperature is shown without a dot, and vice versa. This is normal.
To shutdown the unit, simply turn the control knobs to the OFF-position. If the ambient temperature is over 122
o
F
(50
o
C), the display shows “hot”. Otherwise, the display is off.
6.4
No Pan No Heat
When a temperature is chosen, the induction unit only transmits energy when a pan is placed in the heating zone.
If you remove the pan from the heating zone, power transfer to the pan stops immediately. If the pan is put back
in the heating zone, power is transferred to the pan again.
Note that pans with a bottom diameter smaller than 5”(12 cm) are not detected by the system.
After switching the unit off, there is no heat retained inside the unit.
6.5
When Unit is Not In Use
Best Practice
: If the induction unit is not in use, ensure the control knob is in the 0 (OFF) position.
Switch the unit OFF if you take the cookware away for a while. This will prevent the heating process to
start automatically and unintentionally when a pan is placed back on the heating area. If any person
needs to use the induction unit, he/she will have to turn the unit ON intentionally.
