ESEC Hot Element Indicator Message (HE)

After using any of the single, dual or Bridge radiant element positions the cooktop will become very hot. Even after turning the control knob to OFF, the cooktop will remain hot for

some time. The ESEC control monitors the temperature of the cooktop and displays the message "HE" (hot element) warning when the cooktop is still too hot to touch (See Fig. 1). If

the HE message appears in the window, the control can still be turned on again for use.

ESEC Error Indicator Message (Er)

An error message will be displayed (flashing "Er") at power up (or after a power failure) if ANY of the surface control knobs were left in the ON positions. If a power failure should occur, be

sure to set all of the 4 surface control knobs to the OFF position (See Fig. 2). This will reset the surface controls.

Be sure to reset the clock (See page 16). Once the surface controls have been set to the OFF positions and the clock has been set with the correct time of day, the surface controls should return to normal operation. If the surface controls do not function and the "Er"

message remains in any display after following these procedures, contact 1-800-4-MY-

HOME@.

ESEC Lockout Feature ( - - )

The self-clean feature will not operate whenever a radiant surface element is ON. 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, "- -" may appear in any display window (See

Fig. 3). If any of the surface elements are still hot during active Lockout, "HE" will appear in the window instead of the" - -" message.

Operating Single Radiant Surface Elements

The cooktop has single radiant surface elements at 2 locations; the right rear (Fig. 5) and left rear (Fig. 6) element positions. The BRIDGE element position can also be used as a single element (See Bridge Element Operating Instructions on pages 10-11).

To Operate the Single Surface Elements:

1.Place correctly sized cookware on the radiant surface element.

2,

Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction

 

to the desired setting using the ESEC digital display

 

window for the desired setting (Fig. 4). Turn the knob to

 

adjust the setting if desired. Start most cooking operations

 

on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish

 

cooking. Each surface element provides a constant

 

amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface

heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the

surface heating area.

,When cooking has completed, turn the surface control

knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The HE message will appear after turning the control knob to OFF if the cooktop is still hot and will remain on until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.
