To Use
To Turn On the Cooktop:
Press POWER.

in each surface cooking area will light to indicate that each
surface cooking area is ready to be activated.
Inactivity for 1 minute after the main power has been turned
on will automatically turn off the power to the cooktop.
If a cooking function or the power slider is touched without
first selecting a surface cooking area, all dashes (one for
each zone) will flash and an invalid tone will sound 3 times.
To Turn On a Surface Cooking Area:
1. Touch directly on the display area for the surface cooking
area you want to use.
The current power level and indicator light will flash for 10
seconds and then remain on.
Touching any other feature or the power slider stops the
flashing and information for the keypad that was touched
will be displayed.
When a surface cooking area is selected, the timer will also
turn on to show that it can now be set.
When a surface cooking area is left at the “0” power level
for 1 minute, the surface cooking area will automatically
turn off and display only the middle dash without the
indicator light.
2. Select a heat setting from 1 - 9 by touching/sliding on the
power slider. The heat setting will appear in the surface
cooking area display.
The power slider consists of 9 positions plus a “Boost”
position. When the user slides to 0, “0” will be displayed.
The surface cooking area will not turn on but remains
active/ selected.
When a surface cooking area is left at the “0” power level
for 1 minute, the zone will automatically turn off and display
only the middle dash without the indicator light.

Dual Size Surface Cooking Area
(on some models)
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. Single size
B. Dual size
The dual size surface cooking area contains 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 activate only part of the dual size cooking area. This will
result in the burner being less efficient and will 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.
