NOTE: Using a 12” diameter or larger pan/pot may cause damage to the element or internal wiring.
Such damages are not covered by warranty. Two (2) heating elements are used. For the TMHPF each
element draws 2,600 Watts on 240 Volts and 1,950 Watts on 208 Volts. For the TMHPE element
draws 2,100 Watts on 240 Volts and 1,575 Watts on 208 Volts. Each element is controlled by an
innite position switch. The right control knob controls the rear cooking element and the left control
knob controls the front cooking element. On “HI” the element delivers uninterrupted full heat. Between
“LO” and “5” any desired amount of heat can be obtained between 6% and 60% of full heat.
Signal lights are provided above the control knobs to give a visual check if either one or both heating
units are turned on.
