Operating The Dual Surface Radiant Elements - Electrolux E30EC65ESS - 30 Inch Smoothtop Electric Cooktop Use And Care Manual

OPERATING THE DUAL SURFACE RADIANT ELEMENTS

Both the 30" and 36" cooktops are equipped with dual
radiant surface elements located at the right & left
front positions (See Figs. 1 & 2). Symbols around the
knob are used to indicate which coil of the dual radiant
element will heat. The symbol indicates that only
the inner coil will heat (Fig. 3). The
that both inner and outer coils will heat (Fig. 4). You
may switch from either coil setting at any time during
cooking.
To Operate the Dual Surface
Element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface
element.
2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise
(See Figs. 3 & 5) for smaller cookware or clockwise
(See Figs. 4 & 6) for larger cookware to the desired
setting using the ESEC digital display window for
the desired setting.
3. Turn the knob to adjust the setting as needed.
Start most cooking operations on a higher setting
and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.
Each surface element provides a constant amount
of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface
heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of
the cookware indicates the cookware is too
small for the surface heating area.
4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface
control knob to OFF before removing the cookware.
Note: The surface "Element On" indicator lights will glow when one or more elements are
turned on. A quick glance at these indicator lights when cooking is finished is an easy check
to be sure all surface elements are turned off. Also, the HE message will appear in the display
after turning the control knob to OFF if the cooktop is still hot and remain on until the heating
surface area has cooled sufficiently.
