WARNING
Fire Hazard
Turn off all controls when done cooking.
Failure to do so can result in death or fire.
The touch-activated electronic controls offer a variety of heat
settings for optimal cooking results. When you are melting foods
such as chocolate or butter, or when proofing bread, the surface
cooking area can be set to the keep warm function for minimal
surface cooking area operation.
For maximum surface cooking area operation, the left rear, right
rear, and right front surface cooking areas can be set to
Performance boost function when bringing liquids to a fast and
rapid boil. Set the surface cooking area heat setting level to 9,
then touch the "plus" (+) key to immediately reach the highest
setting.
NOTE: Where 240V installation is not available, this cooktop will
automatically adjust to 208V operation.
First use or after a power failure:
After connecting the cooktop to an electrical power suppy or
after a power failure, the control panel will be locked. An indicator
light above the key icon will be on. To unlock the control panel,
press and hold CONTROL LOCK for 3 seconds. The indicator
light will turn off, and the cooktop is ready for use.
