The temperature settings of 1-9 you set the element to reduce to, correspond with the same temperature settings for standard element use, 1 being low and 9 being high. Every temperature setting between 1 and 9 has a different fixed time. (Refer to the ‘Auto Heat-Reduce Guide’).

After the time has elapsed, the element will reduce to the lower temperature setting of 6 and maintain this until the element or cooktop is turned off.
