SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
• 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
sufciently.
• Do not place ammable 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.
CAUTION
• 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
heatingsurfaceareaorareashavecooledsufciently.
• 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
ashuntilthecookwareismovedbacktocenter
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.
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.
Cooktop operational noises
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.
