Surface Cooking Controls
Your surface units and controls are designed
to give you a variety of heat settings for surface unit cooking.
At both LO and HI positions, there is
a slight niche so control clicks at those positions; HI marks the highest setting; LO, the lowest setting.
In a quiet kitchen, you may hear slight clicking sounds during cooking, indicating heat settings selected are being maintained.
Switching heats to higher settings always shows a quicker change in temperature than switching to lower settings.
