Error alerts
(Flashing
“E”/”c” and
“E” “o”)

Error alerts indicate a temporary problem that may
be corrected by the user.

Clear Keypad—If the display flashes “E” alternating
to “c”, the keypad is sensing continuous activation
of one or more keypads. Clean or clear any
obstructions on the keypad area. Obstructions may
be water, food spills, a utensil or other objects.

To resume cooking, touch the ON/OFF pad, then
select the power level.

Over Temperature—If the display flashes “E”
alternating to “o”, the cooktop sensor indicates
that the induction element or electronics have
overheated.

Overheating of the element is caused by placing
an empty pan on the element and selecting a high
power level. The element sensor detects very high
temperatures (above normal cooking temperatures),
turns off the power and displays the error. A second
potential cause of this error is a lack of cooling air
to the bottom of the cooktop, which can cause
overheating of the electronics. If this situation
occurs, make sure the air inlet below the cooktop
is unobstructed.

Touch the ON/OFF pad and allow the cooktop
to cool for 30 to 45 minutes before operation
can begin again.

If either of these conditions persist, call for service.

IMPORTANT: If the “E” flashes alone, without
alternating to a “c” or “o”, a hardware error has
occurred. Call for service.

Using Your Cooktop

Induction Cooktop

Control lock

IMPORTANT: As a convenience, you can lock the
entire cooktop at any time when it is not in use or
before cleaning. Locking the cooktop will prevent
surface elements from being turned on accidentally.

To lock the cooktop:

Touch and hold the CONTROL LOCK pad for 5 seconds.

A two-beep signal will sound, and the CONTROL LOCK
light will glow, indicating that the cooktop is locked.

If the cooktop is locked while a surface element
is in use, it will automatically turn off.

The CONTROL LOCK does not affect the timer.
If Control Lock is set while the timer is counting
down, it will continue to operate.

To unlock the cooktop:

Touch and hold the CONTROL LOCK pad again
for 5 seconds. A two-beep signal will sound, and
the CONTROL LOCK light will go out, indicating
that the cooktop is unlocked.
