6. After the third signal tone sounds, the Boiling Sensor
function automatically selects a lower power setting
to keep the water simmering.
7. While the water is simmering, you may add any ingredients
you like, set the timer and change the power setting.
NOTE: Changing the power setting or selecting the
Pause function during Boiling Sensor function will
cancel the function.
For Correct Operation of the Boiling Sensor Function:
Use water only (at room temperature).
■
Do not add salt, condiments or other ingredients until
■
the water reaches the boiling point.
Do not change the power setting of the surface cooking
■
area or remove or move the pot.
Fill the pot to at least 1/3 full (minimum of 1 qt [1 L]), and
■
do not fill the pot to the brim. See the following chart.
Do not use a pressure cooker on the surface cooking
■
area with the Boiling Sensor function selected.
For Optimum Results:
Do not use a lid on the pot being used in conjunction
■
with the Boiling Sensor function.
Do not activate the Boiling Sensor function if the surface
■
cooking area is already hot ("H" visible on display).
The quality of the pot used may have a bearing
■
on the Boiling Sensor function performance.
Important Information:
When the Bridge function is selected, the Performance
■
Boost and Boiling Sensor functions cannot be used.
If the Timer is set, it will be displayed alongside the
surface cooking area display.
The cooktop features automatic functions for each surface
■
cooking area. The available functions are shown next to the
selection keypad of each surface cooking area.
Each time an automatic function is selected, an indicator
■
light turns on next to the function and "A" appears in the
surface cooking area display.
The cooktop features automatic management of the use of
■
the Boiling Sensor and Performance Boost function settings;
therefore, in some cases it may not be possible to select
the Performance Boost function when the Boiling Sensor
function is selected on other surface cooking areas.
