Cooktop Controls

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

The electronic touch controls offer a variety of heat settings for optimal cooking results. When you are melting foods such as chocolate or butter, or when proofing bread, the surface cooking area can be set to Power Level 1 for minimal element operation.

For maximum element operation, all cooktop touch controls can be set to High when bringing liquids to a fast and rapid boil. Touch Power Level 9 to immediately reach the highest setting.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the cooktop, do not place any object over the controls. If something is placed over the controls, a gentle “beep” will sound as a reminder to promptly remove it.

After 20 seconds, an “F1E0” error code will display. This is the control board locking itself to avoid damage from an object placed upon it. To use the cooktop again, disconnect from power or reset the circuit breaker. See “Cooktop is displaying F1E0 code” in the “Troubleshooting” section.

Be sure to lock the cooktop using the Control Lock option (see the “Control Lock” section) when cleaning around the controls. If the cooktop is not locked, and an “F1E0” error code appears, reset the circuit breaker.

To Use:

To Turn On the Cooktop:

1.Press POWER

The indicator light above the Power keypad and a dash (“-”) in each surface cooking area will light to indicate that each surface cooking area is ready to be activated. Inactivity for 1 minute after the main power has been turned on will automatically turn off the power to the cooktop.

The current power level and indicator light will flash for 10 seconds then remain on.

Touching any other feature or the power slider stops the flashing, and information for the keypad that was touched will be displayed.

When a surface cooking area is left at the “0” power level for 25 seconds, the surface cooking area will automatically turn off and display only the middle dash without the indicator light.

When a surface setting is left at the “0” power level for

1 minute and 25 seconds, and there are no other surface cooking areas turned On, the cooktop will turn Off.

2.Select a heat setting from 1-9 by touching/sliding on the power slider. The heat setting will appear in the surface cooking area display.

If a cooking function or the power slider is touched without first selecting a surface cooking area, all dashes (one for each zone) will flash and an invalid tone will sound 4 times.
