Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions

Operating the Cooking Elements

Each of the cooking elements have separate ON/OFF pads and LED display.

Be sure to use cookware that meets the minimum pan size requirements.

To turn on a cooking element:

Place a pan with food onto the induction element. The pan size should match the indicator ring.

Touch the ON/OFF pad. “5” will flash in the display.

Touch the (+) or (-)pad to select power level and to activate the induction element. A sound will beep. The (+) or (-)pad must be pressed within 10 seconds to activate the element.

NOTE: You can also touch and hold the pad to scroll quickly to the desired setting.

The induction circuit detects the pan and allows the element to be activated. Both the element ON indicator light and the cooktop HOT SURFACE light will illuminate. If no power level is selected within 10 seconds, the zone will be deactivated.

To turn the control to OFF, touch the ON/OFF pad. The induction element will be turned off and the display will be blank.

With an element control ON:

If a pan is removed or moved to off-center from the cooking ring, the control will flash “F” along with the power setting. After 30 seconds, the element will be deactivated and displays will turn off.

If the pan is placed back on the zone within 30 seconds, the flashing will stop and cooking will resume.

Troubleshooting Tips

1/2

The power level with a fraction indicates the additional half-step setting.

Power Level Settings

The cooktop offers 19 power levels, including a Boost setting. Power levels range from “L” to 9 in precise half-step increments. For example: 1, 1-1/2, 2, 2-1/2 and up to power level 9.

Power Level “L”, the lowest setting, is recommended for “Keep Warm.”

The power level increases one-half level with each touch.

Power level 9 is the highest normal power setting.

Flashing “F” in the Display

If a pan is removed or moved off-center from the cooking ring during the cooking process, the control will flash “F” along with the power setting. The flashing "F" indicates that the pan is no longer detected. After 30 seconds, the element will be deactivated and the display will turn off.

If the pan is returned to the surface element within 30 seconds, the flashing “F” will disappear and cooking will resume.
