The available ESEC Window Display Settings

The ESEC control will display heat levels ranging from Hi (Fig. 1) to Lo (Fig. 6) and OFF (Fig. 7) that will display in the ESEC windows. The settings between 9.0 (Fig. 2) and 3.0 (Fig. 3) decrease or increase in increments of .5 (1/2). The settings between 3.0 (Figs. 3 & 4) and 1.0 (Fig. 5) are Simmer settings which decrease or increase in increments of .2 to Lo ( Fig. 6; lowest Simmer setting) for more precise settings at lower heat levels. Use the Recommended Surface Setting Chart (See page 9, Fig. 1) to determine the correct setting for the kind of food you are preparing.

Hot Surface Indicator Lights

After using any of the radiant element positions the cooktop will become very hot. After turning any of these elements OFF, the cooktop will remain HOT for some time. The backguard control monitors the temperature for 5 positions on the cooktop. The "Hot Surface" indicator light (Fig. 8) wilt glow whenever any of the element positions becomes HOT. The Hot Surface indicator light will remain ON while hot and turn OFF once the cooktop has cooled sufficiently (Fig. 9).

ESEC Lockout Feature ( - - )

The ESEC feature will not operate during a self-clean cycle or when the Oven Lockout feature is active. Whenever the ESEC Lockout feature is active, " - - " will appear in any display window (See Fig. 10. Also refer to the Oven Lockout instructions on page 19).

ESEC PF message

The ESEC wilt display the PF message whenever there has been a power interruption to the appliance. PF wilt appear in the ESEC display windows as shown in Fig. 11. To clear the PF message touch any ON/OFF ESEC control pad to reset and be sure to reset the clock with the correct time of day if necessary. If the PF displays again repeat these steps.

Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

Do not place aluminum foil or plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Pothotders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if

placed too close to the surface elements.
