Setting Surface Controls
The Dual Radiant Elements
The cooktop is equipped with two dual radiant surface elements. The
size of graduations on the control panel (See Fig. 4) are used to
indicate which coil of the dual radiant element will heat. The
small
graduations
indicate that only the inner coil (See Fig. 2) will heat. The
large graduations
indicate that both inner and outer coils (See Fig.
4) will heat. You may switch from either coil setting at any time during
cooking.
To Operate the Dual Element(s):
1.
Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface element.
2.
Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See Fig. 1)
for smaller cookware or clockwise (See Fig. 3) for larger cookware.
3.
Use the ESEC digital display window for the desired setting. Turn
(do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start most
cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower
setting to finish cooking. Each surface element provides a
constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface
heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware
indicates the cookware is
too small
for the surface heating area.
4.
When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to
OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The
HE
message will
appear after turning the control knob to
OFF
if the cooktop is still
hot and will remain on until the radiant heating surface area has
cooled sufficiently.
Note:
See page 9, Fig. 1 for recommended
control settings.

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off.
The glass surface may
still be hot
and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
