OPERATING THE INDUCTION COOKING ZONES
The cooktop has two induction Cooking Zones designed for cookware of various
sizes. Be sure to place cookware that meets the minimum and maximum pan
size requirements (Fig. 2, page 14) for the Cooking Zone desired and is best for
the amount of food being prepared. Place the cookware with the prepared food
on the Cooking Zone BEFORE setting any of the Cooktop controls.
To Turn ON one or more of the Cooking Zones:
1.
Place the prepared food using the correct type and size cookware on the
desired Cooking Zone. Be sure to center the cookware on Cooking Zone
completely covering the minimum ring marked on the Zone surface. PLEASE
NOTE: If the cookware requirements for the Cooking Zone (See Fig. 1, page
15) are not met the sensors will detect a problem and display the letter
FFFFF
in
the affected Cooking Zone LED. Any problems must be corrected before
proceeding.
