Setting Surface Controls (cont'd)
Operating the Dual Surface Element
The cooktop is equipped with a Dual radiant surface
element located at the right front cooktop position (Figure
1). Indicator lights on the control panel at that position are
used to indicate what portions of the Dual radiant element
will heat. The INNER light indicates that only the inner
element will heat (Figure 2). The OUTER light indicates
that both inner and outer elements will heat together
(Figure 3). You may switch between these different
settings at any time during cooking. Figure 1

Touch and hold the pad for the Dual element position until a beep
is heard. The display will show " - - ". Note: If no further pads are touched
within 10 seconds the request to power the element ON will clear.
3. Select the INNER (Figure 2) or OUTER (both elements) (Figure 3) to heat

by pressing the _ pad once or twice (Figures 3 & 4 show indicator
lights with OUTER selected). Note: If no element size is chosen when the
dual element is turned ON, the control will default to the inner coil only.
4. Touch HI _-_ pad once to turn ON the power level to HI. Touch Lo

5. Each touch of the HI _ or Lo _ pad will increase or decrease
power levels from g.5 through 3.0 by .5 increments. Simmer power levels
between 3.0 and 1.2 will decrease or increase by .2 increments. Lo is the
lowest power level available.
Note: The power level may be adjusted at any time while the element is

When cooking has been completed touch the pad once to turn the
entire element OFF.
Each dual surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each
setting. The different glow of the 2 elements is normal and doesn't affect heating performance (See Figure 3). A
glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is
too small for the surface heating area.
Note: If no element size is chosen when the dual element is turned ON, the control will default to the inner coil only.
See page 9 for recommended surface cooking settings.
Note: The Hot Surface message will remain displayed on the control panel as long as the element is still hot and will
remain ON until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.
Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. But the glass surface
may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.
Do not place aluminum foil or plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons
could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements.
