Dual Size Surface Cooking Area
The dual size surface cooking area offers flexibility to cook using
different sizes of cookware. Single size can be used in the same
way as a regular surface cooking area. The dual size combines
inner and outer surface cooking areas and is recommended for
larger cookware, large quantities of food, and home canning.
A
B
A. Single size
B. Dual size
The dual size surface cooking area comprises two cooking areas.
If the size of the pan is the same as the single size surface
cooking area, the cooking area will work as a single size cooking
area.
If the pan is slightly larger than the single size cooking area, it
may only activate part of the dual size cooking area. This will
result in the burner being less efficient and increase the heating
time.
If the size of the pan is the same as the dual size surface cooking
area, the dual size cooking area will activate automatically.
Cooktop Power Off
The Cooktop Power Off key turns off all surface cooking areas at
once.
Touch and hold COOKTOP POWER OFF until the indicator goes
out. This turns off all the surface cooking areas. The hot surface
indicator "H" stays on the display until the surface cooking areas
have cooled down.
