Cooktop Operating Instructions
Setting the Controls - Zone Smart™
ZONE SMART™ PAN SENSING AND SIZING
(CEP MODELS ONLY)
Pan Sensing
Each element has sensors under the glass ceramic panel which detect if there is a metallic pan (sauce pan, skillet, stockpot, etc) sitting on the element. The elements will heat up when it is turned on and the sensor detects the presence of a pan. This feature is either on or off for all elements and works together with the pan sizing feature
The element will not heat if it is turned on without a pan present or if the pan is removed from the element when it is operating. If no pan is present on the element, a beep will sound at 60 seconds. After 10 minutes, the cooktop beeps and shuts down if no pan s placed on the element
Pan Sizing
On the double and triple elements, a sensor under the cooktop can choose the size pan being used and turn on the appropriate element. This feature is either on or off for all the elements and works together with the pan sensing feature.
Pan Sensing and Sizing Guidelines
•A cooking pan must be sitting on the element for the element to heat up
•Only pans with fl at metal bases can be detected.
•The bottom diameter of the pan must be at least as large as the diameter of the element (cookware diameter indicated by manufacturers s measured across the top and is usually greater than the bottom.)
•Only metal cookware can be used with the pan sensing and pan sizing features. Glass or stoneware will not work
•Center the cookware over the element.
•A large pan cannot extend beyond 1” over the sides of the largest element
Zone Smart™ pad
This pad turns off both the Zone Smart™ features, Pan Sensing and sizing.
The placement of the element control corresponds to the placement of the heating element on the cooktop. On CEP models, Zone Smart™ will always be activated when an element is turned on. To turn off Zone Smart™, see page 11.
Using Single element
(with Zone Smart™ , Pan Sensing Only)
1.Place pan on the center of the element.
2.Touch the center of the control pad that corre- sponds to the element desired. The display
fl ashes 0 and two lights to the left and right of the display. The Zone Smart™ indicator light turns on
3.Touch desired heat setting number. The display shows the heat setting and the element starts heating
4.To turn off surface element, touch the element display
The element heats up when it has been turned on and the sensors detect the presence of a pan
Using a dual or triple element
(with Zone Smart™ Pan sensing and sizing)
1.Place pan on center of element.
2.Touch the center of the control pad that cor- responds to the chosen element. The ZONE SMART™ indicator light turns on.
3.Touch desired heat setting. The display shows the heat setting
4.The small , medium, or large cooking areas on the selected dual or triple element will be activated automatically depending on the size of the pan.
5.To turn off surface element, touch the element display area twice OR
To turn off all elements at the same time, touch the POWER pad
When the pan is lifted off the element, the heating is interrupted. The number of the selected cook setting and the pan missing symbol (U) fl ashes in the display. If no pan is placed on the element, a beep will sound at 60 seconds and after 10 minutes the cook- top beeps and will shut down. Either place the pan back on the element or turn off the element
