Setting Surface Controls 11 OPERATING THE DUAL SURFACE RADIANT ELEMENTS Your cooktop is equipped with a dual radiant surface element located at the right front position (See Fig. 1). Symbols around the knob are used to indicate which coil of the dual radiant element will heat. The symbol indicates that only the inner coil will heat (Fig. 2). The symbol indicates that both inner and outer coils will heat (Fig. 3). You may switch from either coil setting at any time during cooking. Fig. 1 To Operate the Dual Surface Element: 1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface element. 2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See Figs. 2 & 3) for smaller cookware or clockwise (See Figs. 3 & 4) for larger cookware to the desired setting using the ESEC digital display window for the desired setting. 3. Turn the knob to adjust the setting as needed. Fig. 2 Fig. 3 Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. Each surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the surface heating area. 4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Also, the HE message will appear in the display Fig. 4 Fig. 5 after turning the control knob to OFF if the cooktop is still hot and remain on until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently. NOTE See the Recommended Setting for Surface Elements chart, on page 8, to make the correct setting. ! CAUTION Radiant surface elements may appear to be cooled after they have been turned OFF. HE (Hot Element) message will turn ON and will continue to glow until the glass cooktop has cooled down to a moderate level. The glass surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has turned OFF.
