You must use pans which are absolutely flat. If light can be seen between
the pan bottom and a straight edge, the units will not transfer heat properly.
Pan bottoms should closely match the diameter of the surface unit selected.
Because the units heat by conduction, the cooktop surfaces may seem hotter
than you are used to. This is normal. Make sure flat-bottom pans are used.
Improper cookware being used. Pan bottoms should be flat, fairly heavy weight
and the same diameter as the surface unit selected.
Difficulty may be in the main distribution panel of your house, caused by a
blown oven-circuit fuse, a tripped oven-circuit breaker, the main fuse or the
main circuit breaker, depending on the nature of the power supply.If a circuit
breaker is involved, reset it. If the control box uses fuses, the oven fuse
(a cartridge-type) should be changed, BUT ONLY BY SOMEONE FAM~IAR
~TH ELECTMCAL C~CUITS. If after performing 1 of these procedures,
the fuse blows or circuit breaker trips again, cdl for service.
NOTE: Apartment tenants or condominium owners should ask their building
management to perform this check before calling for service.
Cooktop surface unit controls are not properly set, or the wrong control knob
is set for the surface unit you are using.
