Hot Element (HE) Message

After using any of the radiant element positions the ceramic cooktop will become very hot. Even after turning the control off, the cooktop will remain hot for some time.

The cooktop control monitors the temperature of the cooktop surface and displays a message “HE” (hot element) and flashes the burner rings when the cooktop is still too hot to touch -Fig.1-. If the HE message remains displayed in the LED, the heating zone may be set again and used for cooking.

Suggested cooktop power settings

Use the chart -Fig. 2- to determine the suggested setting for the type of food you are preparing.

•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 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. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements.
