l A pan is removed and the surface unit is left on.

lThe bottom of the pan is too large or too small for the surface unit. This WIII result In longer cooking times.

lThe bottom of the pan is rounded, warped, ribbed or dented and does not make full contact with the surface unit.

1 he limiter will automatically reduce the heat I( vel to provide even cooking temperatures aid to protect the surface unit.

rrents when cooking is done. Burned food a id damage to the cookware could result. Use a lower setting to complete the cooking ar\d turn the solid element surface unit off a fs w minutes before you finish cooking.
