Power Boil
Power Boil is the highest power level,
designed for large quantity rapid cooking
and boiling. Power Boil will operate for a
maximum of 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, it
will automatically revert to power level 9.
Power Boil may be repeated after the initial
10 minute cycle.
CAUTION: Do not leave a pot unattended
while in the Power Boil mode.
To start the Power Boil power setting:
Place a pan matching the size of the
1
induction element over the selected
indicator ring.
Touch the ON/OFF pad, then touch the
2
POWER BOIL pad.
The element will be set to the Power
3
Boil setting and "H" will appear in the
display.
– 17 –
NOTE: If the pan is removed, the display will
fl ash "H". After 30 seconds, the element will
turn off automatically.
Sounds you may hear:
You may hear a slight "buzz" sound when
cooking with the or high mode. This is
normal. The sound depends on the type of
pot being used. Some pots will "buzz" louder
depending on the material. A "buzz" sound
may be heard if the pan contents are cold.
As the pan heats, the sound will decrease. If
the power level is reduced, the sound level
will go down.
Power Sharing
Four burner cooktops are divided into two separate heating
zones. The right and left side cooking zones are powered
by separate and independent induction generators. Each
generator controls the 2 elements in the zone.
Power Sharing is activated when both elements in the same
cooking zone are activated and one element is set for Boost
(H). The element that is not set for Boost will change to a
lower power level. This is called Power Sharing. When Boost
operation is complete (10 minutes), the other element may
be reset to any power level. Both elements can operate
simultaneously at normal power level settings of "L" to 9. If
the right rear element is operating on power level H and the
right front element is set between 7 1/2 to 9, the right front
will be reduced to power level 7.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR FOUR BURNER MODELS:
The elements on the right side share one generator. Both
elements can operate at any non-Boost (level L to 9) power
level at the same time. If the large front element is set for
"H" or Boost, the smaller element at the right rear will be
deactivated or turned off automatically. The smaller right
rear element can be activated and set for any power level
after the Boost operation of the larger element is completed
(10 minutes).
