POWER MODE V.S. TEMPERATURE MODE
If a specifi c cooking temperature is not required we suggest using Power Mode instead of
Temperature Mode. To quickly bring a pot of water to boil, use a higher power level setting.
For frying or browning food, Temperature Mode is preferred because the built-in micro processor
monitors and regulates the cookware temperature to the preset temperature. Frying or browning
food using Power Mode may overheat the cookware, and in some cases, extremely high
temperatures may damage your cookware or cooktop. The duxtop(c) induction cooktop has a built-
in safety mechanism to detect such situations and the unit can switch to Temp Mode from Power
Mode automatically when overheating is detected. When this happens it is an indication that Temp
Mode may be more suitable for your current cooking task.
NOTE: Use Power Mode to quickly bring water to boil, do not use Temp Mode.
170-MINUTE AUTOMATIC TIMER
The automatic timer may be used with either the Temperature or Power Mode. Press the TIMER
MODE button until the TIMER light illuminates red and "0" will appear in the LED READOUT
DISPLAY.
To set the desired cooking time use the INCREASE and DECREASE buttons. Time will increase or
decrease 1 minute each time one of the buttons is pressed. Press and hold the + or - button helps
to set the desired cooking time quickly.
The timer may be reset at any time during operation by pressing the "TIMER" button again. When
the time has expired, the timer will "beep" and the cooktop will turn off.
AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF
Unless the timer has been set, this unit will shut down automatically in 120 minutes if no button or
key is pressed. This is a feature in compliance with safety regulations.
NOTE: The cooktop unit will shut off and "beep", if either:
• the incompatible type of cookware is put on the cooktop or;
• no cookware is placed on the unit.
