The Electronic Surface Element Control (ESEC)

The Electronic Surface Element Control ("ESEC") feature includes 4 digital display windows. The ESEC feature provides a numeric digital setting for 4 of the radiant surface element positions on the cooktop, including shared settings at the left front knob control position for both the left front radiant element and the "Bridge" radiant element. Also the right front control knob position shares settings for the dual radiant element. These settings work the same way as normal knob setting indicators work except the settings are displayed in digital windows (Figures 1 thru 4).

The available ESEC Display Settings

The ESEC control provides various heat levels from Hi (Fig. 2) to Lo (Fig. 4) and OFF (Fig. 1). The settings from Hi to 3.0 decrease in increments of .5. The settings from 3.0 to Lo (Simmer settings) decrease in increments of .2 for more precise settings of lower heat levels.

Use the chart (Fig. 5) to determine the correct setting for the kind of food you are preparing. The Simmer settings are used to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods warm such as stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal for delicate foods and melting chocolate or butter.

Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best cooking results.
