SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS CAUTION • Although induction cooking zones do not directly generate heat, they can become hot from contact with hot cookware. Burns may occur if a cooking zone or the surrounding area is touched before it has cooled to a safe temperature. • Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic wrapping on the cooktop when it is in use. Heat radiating from cookware could cause these items to melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to hot cookware. • Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the cooktop. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire. If these items melt on the cooktop, they will damage the cooktop. Power Management Your induction cooktop has 2 or 3 generators and 4 or 5 cooking zones, depending on the model. A generator may power 1 or 2 cooking zones. If you use more than one cooking zone on high power at the same time and they are on the same generator, the cooktop may need to manage power to the two cooking zones. Moving Cookware on a Smooth Cooktop Always lift cookware before moving on the ceramic glass cooktop. Cookware that has a rough or dirty bottom can mark and scratch the ceramic glass surface. Always start with clean cookware. Figure 14: Power management (30" cooktop) Figure 15: Power management (36" cooktop) To get the best performance from your cooktop, start cooking on only one cooking zone. After the first piece of cookware has reached cooking temperature, then start cooking on the second cooking zone. Figure 13: Do not slide cookware on cooktop 14
