zones as an extra-large cooking zone.

Touch BRIDGE.

2 separate areas.

Pan Detection

If the system cannot recognize the pan, or if the pan has been 

removed from the surface cooking area, the “replace pan” 

animation appears in the cooking area display as a reminder.  

See the following illustration.

If the pan is not placed within 30 seconds, the element(s) will  

switch off.
If the cooktop Timer is running when a pan is removed from the 

selected element, the countdown will continue until the element 

switches OFF.

Control Lock

The Control Lock avoids unintended use of the surface cooking 

areas.
If Control Lock is activated when power to the cooktop is OFF, the 

cooktop is locked out and the surface cooking areas cannot be 

turned on by the cooktop touch controls.
If Control Lock is activated when power to the cooktop is ON, all 

keypads are locked out except for the Power and Off keypads.

To Lock Cooktop:

Touch and hold the Control Lock keypad for 3 seconds. After 

3 seconds, a tone will sound and the indicator light above the 

Control Lock keypad will light, indicating that the cooktop controls 

are in the lockout position.
If the cooktop is in use when Control Lock is activated, cooking 

will proceed as normal and any cooktop timers that have been set 

will continue their countdown.

To Unlock Cooktop:

Touch and hold the Control Lock keypad for 3 seconds.
