overload, or improper connection of the armored cable supplied with the appliance, have
this situation corrected by a quali ed electrician.
Too low heat setting. Turn control to a slightly higher setting until element comes on.
Incorrect control is ON. Be sure to use correct control for the element needed.
SURFACE ELEMENT TOO HOT OR NOT HOT ENOUGH

Dial markings are an indicator of relative heat settings and will vary slightly.
Lightweight or warped pans being used. Use only at, evenly balanced, medium or
heavyweight cookware.

source.
Use only at bottom, evenly balanced, medium or heavyweight cookware. Pans having a
