Before Setting Surface Controls
Cooktop Display Windows
The cooktop controls provide a digital display for each of the cooking zone located on the cooktop. Power levels and messages are easily monitored and adjusted using the corresponding control keypads in combination with the window displays.
The Available Power Level Settings
The cooktop control will display heat levels ranging from
Hi (Figure 1) to Lo (Figure 6), OFF (Figure 7) and Pb (Power Boost; Figure 8). The settings between 9.5 (Figure 2) and
3.0(Figure 3) decrease or increase in increments of .5 (1/2).
The settings between 2.8 (Figure 4) and 1.2 (Figure 5) are Simmer settings which decrease or increase in increments of .2 (1/5) to Lo (Figure 6; lowest Simmer setting) for more precise settings at lower heat levels. The highest setting
"Power Boost" (Figure 8) provides approximately 139% power for 10 minutes.
