OPERATING THE TRIPLE SURFACE RADIANT ELEMENT
Both the 30" and 36" cooktops are equipped with "Triple" surface radiant elements
located as shown in Figs. 1 & 2. A touch key pad on the element controls is used
to select one of the 3 positions of the element. Symbols and indicator lights on
the control panel are used to indicate which coil of the triple radiant element will
heat. The symbol indicates that only the inner element (See Fig. 3) will heat.
The
symbol indicates that both inner and middle elements (See Fig. 4) will heat
together. The
symbol indicates that all 3 portions of the element (See Fig. 5)
will heat. You may switch from either of these settings at any time during cooking.
