cooking zone
• The Center area is a Dual Cooking Zone which
activates single or dual elements depending on pot/
pan size. If the cooktop detects cookware that is
less than 9" in diameter, only the inner ring (single
element) will activate. If it detects cookware larger
than 9" in diameter, it will activate both the inner
and outer rings (dual element)
• To quickly boil a very large quantity of water, set the
center element to Boost, use a pot that is at least
9" in diameter so that the center dual element is
activated, and turn off all other elements.
Minimum Cookware Size
• Use cookware with a bottom surface diameter of
5.5" (140 mm) or greater.
• For Flexible Cooking Zone, minimum cookware
size is 4.7" x 10.6" (120 mm x 270 mm)
