Operation
Setting the cooktop
This section will show you how to set the elements. The 
table contains details on the heat settings for a variety of 
dishes.
Setting the element
Adjust the heat setting of the elements using the knob:
Push in and turn the knob to the desired temperature.
Heat level 1 = minimum power
Heat level 9 = maximum power
When the element turns on, the power-on indicator lights 
up.
Turning off
Turn the control knob to OFF. When all control knobs are 
in the OFF position, the cooktop is turned off.
Note:  The heat is turned on and off to regulate the 
temperature of the element; this means that the red glow 
below the element is not always visible. When you select 
a low heat setting, the element turns off for longer 
intervals, while at a higher setting these intervals are very 
short. Even at the highest level, the element turns on and 
off.
