Surface Operation
Rear and Front
Elements
Push in and turn the control knob
counterclockwise to the desired setting.
The element will
adjust the power output to maintain
the desired heat setting. Some elements have a “Boost” feature. A boost of power is provided for 10 minutes and is used for quickly boiling water when the element is turned to “HI”. When finished boiling, turn the control knob to “MED HI” to maintain the boil or to a lower setting for steaming, warming, and simmering sauces. Remember that induction cooking is instantaneous and boiling time is decreased when using the proper induction cookware.
CA UTIO N
DO NOT heat empty cookware or let cookware boil dry. The cookware can absorb an excessive amount of heat very quickly, resulting in possible damage to the cookware and ceramic glass.
Surface Indicator Lights The surface indicator lights
are located at
the front of the glass cooktop.
The indicator lights are used
to indicate activation, hot surface, and warnings.
Note: If all elements are turned to HI for a long period of time, the internal temperature inside of the cooktop may rise, causing the cooktop to turn off.
