Cooktop Display Windows - Kenmore 790.9720 Series Use & Care Manual

Before Setting Surface Controls
Cooktop display windows
The oven backguard provides a digital window for each of
the cooking zones located on the cooktop. Power levels and
messages are easily monitored and controlled using the
window displays in combination with the corresponding
control keypads.
Available power level settings
The cooktop control will display heat levels ranging from
Pb (Fig. 1), Hi (Fig. 2) to Lo (Fig. 3) and OFF (Fig. 4).
The settings between 9.5 (Fig. 5) and 3.0 (Fig. 6) decrease
or increase in .5 increments.
The settings between 3.0 and 1.2 (Fig. 7) are simmer
settings which decrease or increase in increments of .2
which provides precision when setting lower heat levels.
Use the "Suggested power level settings table" provided in
Setting Surface Controls section to determine the correct
setting for the type of food you are preparing.
Power level settings
When setting an induction cooking zone to the highest
level, the display will show Pb (Power Boost) power level
for up to 10 minutes (See Fig. 1). After 10 minutes the
cooking zone will automatically lower to the Hi (Fig. 2)
setting. The Pb setting is only available immediately after
activating a cooking zone and pressing the Hi power level
keypad.
Hot Surface message
After using any of the induction Cooking Zones the cooktop
may become very HOT and may remain HOT for some
time. The corresponding Hot Surface (Fig. 8) indicator light
will remain ON and turn OFF once the affected Cooking
Zone on the cooktop has cooled sufficiently.
