Temperature Limiter
Every radiant surface unit has
a temperature limiter.
The temperature limiter protects the glass
cooktop from getting too hot. It is normal
for it to cycle when the cooktop is in use.
The temperature limiter may cycle the
units off more frequently for a time if:
■ The pan boils dry.
■ The pan bottom is not flat.
■ The pan is off-center.
■ There is no pan on the unit.
Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.
How to Set
Push the knob in and turn in either
direction to the setting you want.
For glass cooktop surfaces:
A HOT COOKTOP indicator light,
on the cooktop, will glow when any radiant
element is turned on. It will remain on until
the surface is cooled to approximately
150°F.
Indicator light will:
■ Come on when the unit is turned on or
hot to the touch.
■ Stay on even after the unit is turned off.
■
Glow until the unit is cooled to
approximately 150°F.
At both OFF and HI the control clicks
into position. You may hear slight clicking
sounds during cooking, indicating the
control is maintaining your desired setting.
Be sure you turn the control knob to OFF
when you finish cooking.
