Dual/Triple Element
The dual and triple elements offer flexibility depending on the size
of the cookware. Single size can be used in the same way as a
regular element. The dual and triple sizes combine single, dual
and outer elements and are recommended for larger cookware,
large quantities of food, and home canning.
Triple Element (on some models)
Dual Element
To Use DUAL and TRIPLE:
1. When ON is touched, all heating zones will be active. To
reduce the number of heating zones being used, touch ON
again. One, two or three lights will glow to indicate the
number of burner zones being used. One of the lights will
blink.
2. While the Keep Warm light is blinking, touch the desired
Power Level on the Power Level Selector Bar.
A beep will sound each time a pad is touched. The lights for
the selected temperature setting, and all lower temperatures,
will glow.
NOTE: If a power level setting is not selected within
approximately 10 seconds, the element will automatically
shut off.
3. To change the temperature setting while cooking, touch the
ON pad for the desired element, and select a new
temperature on the Power Level Selector Bar while the Keep
Warm light is blinking.
4. To change the burner zones being used while cooking, touch
ON once then again while the Keep Warm light is blinking.
5. When finished cooking, touch OFF to turn off surface cooking
area(s) individually or ALL OFF/LOCK to turn off all surface
cooking areas at once.
NOTE: The dual and triple elements will remember the setting
from the last time it was used and those burner areas will
automatically activate the next time ON is touched. To change
the activated burner zones, touch ON once while the Keep Warm
light is blinking.
Keep Warm
The Keep Warm function can be used to keep cooked foods
warm, and may be used whether or not the other surface cooking
zones are in use. One hour is the recommended maximum time
to maintain food quality.
It is not recommended for heating cold foods. When the Keep
Warm function is in use, it will not glow red like the cooking
zones, but the indicator light will glow on the control panel.
Use only cookware and dishes recommended for oven and
cooktop use, and those that have flat bottoms to make direct
contact with the cooktop surface. Use pot holders or oven mitts
to remove cookware.
Cover all foods with a lid or aluminum foil. Do not use plastic
wrap to cover food, as it may melt onto the cooktop surface.
When warming baked goods, allow a small opening in the cover
for moisture to escape.
Food quality may deteriorate if food is kept on the Keep Warm
function for an extended period of time. For best results, keep
food warm for no longer than 30 to 45 minutes.
A Keep Warm setting is available on all standard surface cooking
areas. A separate Keep Warm surface cooking area is also
available.
To Use the Keep Warm Surface Cooking Area (on some
models):
1. Touch ON.
2. When finished cooking, touch OFF to turn off surface cooking
area.
To Use the Keep Warm Setting on Standard Surface
Cooking Areas:
To Use:
1. Touch the ON pad for the desired element. The Keep Warm
light will blink.
2. While the Keep Warm light is blinking, touch Keep Warm on
the Power Level Selector Bar.

area.
