Dual element control
The left front element is designed for dual element control, using either the inner or full element.
1 With the cooktop turned on, touch the
button in the touch controls. The red light
will stop flashing and remain static.
2 Select the element temperature setting,
using the arrows as required. Only the inner
element will come on. (Remember the
cooktop regulates the element temperature,
and you may notice the element turn off and
back on again).
3 To select the full element, touch the button. Note: You cannot select the full element until
you have set the temperature.
4 A red light will show beside the
button, when the full element is selected. You can modify
the full element temperature with the arrows.
To return to the inner element only, touch the button again. The dual setting is cleared
when the cooktop is turned off.
Auto heat-reduce
Your cooktop has an effort saving function, to quickly bring your element to the maximum
temperature setting (9), then automatically reduce the element temperature setting to maintain
a lower heat to cook your food at. This limits the risks of spill overs and burning.
Ideal for boiling water for pasta and then automatically lowering the heat and maintaining a
rapid simmer until al dente.
To set the function, turn the element on by touching the corresponding element button.
Using the arrows scroll past 9 to display . When is showing, use the arrows again to select
the temperature setting you would like the element to reduce to.
The temperature settings of 1-9 you set the element to reduce to, correspond with the same
temperature settings for standard element use, 1 being low and 9 being high. Every temperature
setting between 1 and 9 has a different fixed time. (Refer to the ‘Auto Heat-Reduce Guide’).
Eg. Auto Heat Reduce 6 setting, will heat and maintain the element to the maximum
temperature (9), for 2.5 minutes. After the time has elapsed, the element will reduce to the lower
temperature setting of 6 and maintain this until the element or cooktop is turned off. Please
note, the maximum temperature (9) never reduces.
