Cooktop cooking results not what expected
Is the proper cookware being used?
See the "Cookware" section.
Is the control knob set to the proper heat level?
See the "Cooktop Controls" section.
Is the appliance level?
Level the appliance. See the Installation Instructions.
Does it appear to take longer to cook food at a certain
power level than usual or some power levels do not
perform as well as usual?
The cooktop regulates the temperature of the internal
components and automatically reduces the power of all
the elements in use without any visual or audible feedback.
Allow the cooktop to cool down for 30 minutes to resume
normal cooking performance. See "To Use" in the "Cooktop
Controls" section.
A vapor is being emitted from the knobs of the
cooktop
Is the cooktop in its first use(s)?
During the first use(s), a vapor may be seen exiting the holes
around the knobs of the cooktop. This behavior is normal
and should disappear after use.
Cooktop element is cycling on and off
Element cycling is normal for all power levels.
The elements may cycle on and off to control the
temperature and avoid overheating.
