SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Setting radiant elements and induction zones (cont'd) Pan preheat recommendations When preheating a pan on the cooktop always watch very carefully. Whenever using the cooktop the user should always pay attention to any pan and items cooking and remain attentive until the cooking process is complete. Keep in mind that induction cooking may decrease the amount of time required to preheat a cooking utensil. IMPORTANT • The HE (hot element) message may 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. • Induction cooking zones only - 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. 18
