ESEC Hot Element Indicator Message (HE)
After using any of the single, dual or bridge radiant element positions
the cooktop will become very hot. Evenafter turning the control knob
to OFF,the cooktop will remain hot for some time. The ESECcontrol
monitors the temperature of the cooktop and displays the message
"HE" (hot element) warning when the cooktop is still too hot to touch
(Fig. 1). If the HE message appears in the window, the control can be
turned on again for use.
Operating ESEC Surface Elements
Operating ESEC Single Radiant Surface Elements
The cooktop hassingle radiant surface elements at 2 locations; the
right rear (Fig. 3) and left rear (Fig. 4) element positions. The BRIDGE
element position can also be used as a single element.
To Operate the Single Surface Elements:
1. Placecorrectly sized cookware on the radiant surface element.
2. Pushin and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the
desired setting using the ESECdigital display window for the desired
setting (Fig. 2). Turn the knob to adjust the setting if desired. Start
most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a
lower setting to finish cooking. Eachsurface 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.
3. When cooking hascompleted, turn the surface control knob to OFF
before removing the cookware. Note: The HE message will appear
after turning the control knob to OFFif the cooktop is still hot and
will remain on until heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.
Operating the ESEC Dual Surface Radiant Elements
(some models)
The cooktop isequipped with a dual radiant surface element located at
the right front (Fig. 8) position. The sizeof graduations on control
panel indicate which coil of the dual radiant element will heat. The
small graduations indicates that only the inner coil will heat (Fig. 5 &
7). The large graduations indicates that both inner and outer coils will
heat (Fig. 6 & 8). You may switch from either coil setting at any time
during cooking.
To Operate the Dual Surface Elements:
1. Placecorrectly sized cookware on the radiant surface element.
2. Pushin and turn the control knob counterclockwise (Fig. 5) for
smaller cookware and clockwise (Fig. 6) for larger cookware.
3. Usethe ESECdigital display window for the desired setting. Turn
the knob to adjust the setting if needed. Start most cooking opera-
tions on ahigher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish
cooking. Eachsurface element provides a constant amount of heat
at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending be-
yond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is
too small for the surface heating area.
4. When cooking hascompleted, turn the surface control knob to OFF
before removing the cookware. Note: The HE message will appear
after turning the control knob to OFF if the cooktop is still hot and
will remain on until the radiant surface area has cooled sufficiently.
Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled
after they have been turned off. The glass surface may still be hot
and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before it has cooled
sufficiently.
