How to Set

Push the knob in and turn in either direction to the setting you want.

At both OFF and HI the control clicks into position. You may hear slight clicking sounds during cooking, indicating the control is keeping the power level you set.

The control must be pushed in to set only from the OFF position. When the control is in any position other than OFF, it may be rotated without pushing it in.

If boiling water, for more efficient use, turn the knob to HI to bring it to a boil faster. After the water has come to a boil, reduce the knob setting to medium-high. The heat will still be great enough to maintain a boil, but you will be using less energy.

An indicator light will glow when any surface unit is on.

Be sure you turn the control knob to OFF when you finish cooking.

Care and Cleaning

Wok Cooking

We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store.

Do not use woks that have support rings. Use of these types of woks, with or without the ring in place, can be dangerous.

Placing the ring over the surface unit will cause a build-up of heat that will damage the porcelain cooktop. Do not try to use such woks without the ring. You could be seriously burned if the wok tipped over.

Troubleshooting

Use only flat-bottomed woks.

Deep Fat Frying

Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
