Setting Surface Controls
The cooktop controls provide display to help set power levels for the cooking zones located
on the cooktop. These settings work the same way as traditional knob settings except
the settings are made using a touch sensitive panel and show settings using LED style
displays.
SETTING THE COOKTOP

Available cooktop settings
Your control control provides different power level settings for each
of the cooking or heating zones. These displays have keypads that
allow the user to fi rst activate (ON/OFF) the needed element and
then to quickly turn that element ON using 3 preset power levels
(lo, med or hi) - see Figs. 2 through 5 -.
In addition to the automatic settings, the + and - keypads allows for
more precise level adjustments between the automatic settings.
Element size indicators
Some cooktop zone positions display additional size keypads -
see Fig 1- that allows the user to switch between single or dual
elements sizes quickly whenever the cooking zone is active.
Hot Surface Alert
After using any of the radiant element positions the ceramic
cooktop will become very hot. Even after turning the surface
controls off, the cooktop will remain hot for some time after use.
The cooktop control monitors the temperature of the cooktop
surface and displays the message hot surface when cooktop
is still too hot to touch - see fi g. 6. If the hot surface message
remains displayed, the heating zone may be set again and used
for cooking.

CAUTION
Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned OFF. The Hot Indicator
Light will turn ON and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate
level. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before
the indicator light has turned OFF.
Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons
could catch fi re if placed too close to the surface elements.
