Induction Cooking
Induction cooking is quite different from traditional forms of
cooking. The heat is generated directly in the pan, keeping the
cooking surface cooler than with a traditional element.
Induction cooking does not lose as much heat as traditional forms
because all the heat is created in the pan itself.
The cooktop heats up or cools down quickly after the controls are
set. It also stops heating when the pan is removed without turning
off the power.
Food spilled on the cooktop surface will not burn because the
glass is not heated. Induction cooking allows for immediate
cleaning after use because the heat is created in the pan.
Pan size, material (see "Cookware" section), and positioning are
very important to achieve maximum wattage.
The diameter of the pan's base should be equal to the size of the
element.
If the pan is too small, the burner does not sense the pan and will
not activate.
Cooktop Controls
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Turn off all controls when done cooking.
Failure to do so can result in death or fire.
The touch-activated electronic controls offer a variety of heat
settings for optimal cooking results. When melting foods such as
chocolate or butter, the surface cooking area can be set to the Melt
and Hold function for minimal surface cooking area operation.

For maximum surface cooking area operation, all cooktop touch-
activated electronic controls can be set to Performance boost
function when bringing liquids to a fast and rapid boil. Select the
desired surface cooking area, then press "Boost" to immediately
reach the highest setting.
NOTE: Where 240V installation is not available, this cooktop will
automatically adjust to 208V operation.
Cooktop Control Lock:
The cooktop can be locked to avoid unintended use. To lock the
control panel, press and hold LOCK for 3 seconds. An indicator
light above Lock will turn on. To unlock the control panel, press and
hold LOCK for 3 seconds. The indicator light will turn off, and the
cooktop is ready for use.
To Use
To Turn On the Cooktop:
1. Press POWER.
The indicator light above the Power keypad and a dash ("-") in
each surface cooking area will light to indicate that each
surface cooking area is ready to be activated.
Inactivity for 60 seconds after the main power has been turned
on will automatically turn off the power to the cooktop.
If a cooking function or the power slider is touched without first
selecting a surface cooking area, all dashes (one for each zone)
will flash and an invalid tone will sound 3 times.
To Turn on a Surface Cooking Area:
2. Touch directly on the display area for the surface cooking area
you want to use. See D, E, I and J of previous illustration.
The current power level and indicator light will flash for
10 seconds then remain on.
Touching any other feature or the power slider stops the
flashing, and information for the keypad that was touched will
be displayed.
When a surface cooking area is selected, the timer will also turn
on to show that it can now be set.
When a surface cooking area is left at the "0" power level for
30 seconds, the surface cooking area will automatically turn off
and display only the middle dash without the indicator light.
