High (H) – Best for larger pans; brings liquids
to a boil faster.
Medium High (7–9) – Fast fry, pan broil;
maintains a fast boil on large amounts of food.
Medium (4–6) – Sauté and brown; maintains a
slow boil on large amounts of food.
Medium Low (2–3) – Cook after starting at
high; cooks with little water in covered pan.
Low (1) – Steam rice, cereal; maintains serving
temperature of most foods. Slow cooking and
simmering.
Lowest (L) – Keeps food warm, melts chocolate
and butter.
Never leave food unattended. Boilovers cause
smoking; greasy spillovers may catch on fire.
It is safe to place hot cookware from the
oven or surface units on the glass surface
when it is cool. Never place cookware on
the control area.
NOTE: Cooktop temperatures increase with the
number of surface units that are on. With 3 or more
units turned on, surface temperatures are high so be
careful when touching the cooktop. After the surface
unit is turned off, the hot surface indicator light will
remain lit until the surface has cooled below 150° F.

The dual surface units have pan sizing sensors
which will automatically set the small or large
surface unit to match the size of your pan
when the pan detection feature is
activated (see the Using the pan detection feature
and Using the pan sizing feature sections).
To override the automatic pan sizing sensor
and select the small or large surface unit:
1. Touch the dual surface unit ON/OFF pad.
2. Use the (+)/(-) pad to set the desired power
setting.
3. Touch the SIZE SELECT pad once to turn
on the large surface unit. Touch the pad
again to turn on the small surface unit.
When the indicator light next to the SIZE
SELECT pad is on, the large surface unit is on.
When it is off, the small surface unit is on.
To turn the dual surface unit off, touch the
ON/OFF pad.
