Operation - Cooktop

 

Temperature Limiter

Each radiant heating element has its own sensor to protect the glass cooking sur-

 

face from extreme high temperatures. The limiters will operate automatically by

 

cycling the element off regardless of the cook setting.

 

Although cycling is normal, any one of the following conditions can activate the

 

limiter and cause it to cycle on and off more than usual:

 

• The base of the pan is not making full contact with the heating surface (due to

 

a warped or uneven base).

 

• The pan is too small for the element.

 

• The pan has boiled dry.

 

• The material or shape of the pan is slow to transfer the heat.

Hot Surface Indicator

The cooktop displays a hot indicator light to show when the cooking surface is too

 

hot to touch. If a hot surface light is on, use caution when working or cleaning

 

around the cooktop as the cooktop is still hot.
