Right side bridgeP. Control lockInduction cooking is quite different from traditional forms ofcooking. The heat is generated directly in the pan, keeping thecooking surface cooler than a traditional element.Induction cooking does not lose as much heat as traditionalforms because all the heat is created in the pan itself.The cooktop heats up or cools down quickly after the controlsare set. It also stops heating when the pan is removed withoutturning off the power.Food spilled on the cooktop surface will not burn because theglass is not heated. Induction cooking allows for immediatecleaning after use because the heat is created in the pan.Pan size, material (see "Cookware" section), and positioning isvery important to achieve maximum wattage.The diameter of the pan's base should be equal to the size of theelement.If the pan is too small, the burner does not sense the pan and willnot activate.Fire HazardTurn off all controls when done cooking.Failure to do so can result in death or fire.The touch-activated electronic controls offer a variety of heatsettings for optimal cooking results. When melting foods such aschocolate or butter, the surface cooking area can be set to theMelt function for minimal cooking power.For maximum surface cooking power, all cooktop touch-activated electronic controls can be set to Performance Boostfunction when bringing liquids to a fast and rapid boil. TouchBOOST to immediately reach the highest setting.NOTE: This cooktop will also work with a 208V operation where240V installation is not available.
