SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS CAUTION • Unlike radiant surface elements, the induction cooking zones will not glow red when they are hot. The glass surface may be hot from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur. • Do not touch hot cookware or pans directly with hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to protect hands from burns. • The cooking zones may appear to have cooled after they have been turned OFF. The glass surface may still be hot from residual heat and burns may occur if the cooktop is touched before it has cooled sufficiently. • Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite if placed too close to hot cookware. IMPORTANT • The HE (hot element) message will appear in the display windows once a heating element or cooking zone is turned OFF and will remain ON until the heating surface area or areas have cooled sufficiently. • Do not allow aluminum foil, or ANY material that can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop they may damage the ceramic cooktop. • If the cookware is moved from the center of any active induction cooking zone, the pan sensor will detect the situation and the cookware will no longer heat. The affected cooking zone display window will flash until the cookware is moved back to center of cooking zone. If the cookware is placed back properly centered on the cooking zone, the zone will resume heating. The cooking zone will remember the power level setting for up to 3 minutes before the cooking zone will automatically shut OFF. Cooktop operational noises The electronic processes involved with induction cooking may create some background noises. You may hear a slight "buzzing" sound when cooking on the cooktop. These noises are part of the induction cooking process are considered normal. Some cookware will "buzz" depending on the construction or base material. The "buzz" may be more noticeable if the contents of the pan are cold. As the pan heats up, the noise will decrease. The noise will also decrease if the power level setting is reduced. NOTE When using the induction cooktop, operational noises are more noticeable while cooking at the "Pb" level. Very loud noises are not part of normal induction cooking. Oven vent location The oven vent is located under the left side of the control panel (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air passes through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block the oven vent. oven vent location Fig. 1 14
