SURFACE CONTROLS
At both OFF and HI positions, there is a slight niche
so control “clicks” at those positions; the word HI
marks the highest setting; the lowest setting is the
word LO. In a quiet kitchen you may hear slight
“clicking” sounds during cooking, indicating the heat
settings selected are being maintained.
Switching to higher heat settings always shows a
quicker heat change than switching to lower settings.
How to Set the Controls
1. Push the control knob in.
2. Turn either clockwise or
counterclockwise to the
desired heat setting.
The control must be pushed in to set only from the
OFF position. When the control is in any position
other than OFF, it may be turned without pushing
it in.
Be sure you turn the control knob to OFF when you
finish cooking.
The left surface unit indicator light will glow when
either the left front or rear surface units are on.
The right surface unit indicator light will glow when
either the right front or rear surface units are on.
Cooking Guide for Using Heat Settings
HI—Quick start for cooking; brings water to a boil.
Medium High—(Setting halfway between HI and
MED) Fast fry, pan broil; maintains a fast boil on
large amounts of food.
MED—Sauté and brown; maintains a slow boil on
large amounts of food.
Medium Low—(Setting halfway between MED and
LO) Cook after starting at HI; cooks with little water
in covered pan.
LO—Steam rice, cereal; maintains serving
temperature of most foods. Slow cooking and
simmering. At LO settings, melt chocolate and butter
on small surface unit.
Cooktop temperatures increase with the number
of surface units that are on. With 3 or 4 units
turned on, surface temperatures are high so be
careful when touching the
cooktop. The hot surface
indicator
light will remain lit after the surface units
are off until the surface is cool enough to touch.
NOTE:
• At HI, Medium High settings, never leave food
unattended. Boilovers cause smoking; greasy
spillovers may catch on fire.
• When a surface unit is turned on, the unit can be
seen glowing red within a few seconds. The red
glow will turn on and off (cycling) to maintain the
selected heat setting. With poor cookware, you will
see frequent cycling of the unit off and on. Good,
flat cookware will minimize the cycling. See the
Surface Cookware Tips section.
