Power Sharing
In order to give you more flexibility, your induction cooktop
is equipped with more cooking zones than the number of
induction generators. Each of those generators is assigned
to power a specific cooking zone (see Figure on next page).
One or two cooking zones are assigned to each generator.
To be able to give you access to the highest power ratings,
the generator will focus its power onto only one cooking
zone. If you use more than one cooking zone at high power
on the same generator, the generator will need to share
its power to both cooking zones, thus lowering the power
level of one of the cooking zones.
When you are sharing power (cooking in both zones), the
last zone set will cook at the power setting you selected.
The other zone will experience a slight decrease from its
power setting if both zones are set high enough.
Depending on the size of your cooktop, 2 or 3 sections are
available:
• The 30" cooktop is equipped with 4 cooking zones within
2 sections.
• The 36" cooktop is equipped with five cooking zones within
3 sections. Note that on the 36" cooktop the right cooking
zone has its own section and will not share its power.
