26 OPERATION
• When boiling water on the center element, an
11" diameter pot gives the best performance
and saves the most time.
• Use the Boost setting to quickly boil water, or
whenever you need extra heating power in one
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.
• To prevent damage to the product, if one of the
right-side elements is turned on when the center
dual element is using the Boost setting, the
power setting of the center dual element is
automatically reduced to power level 9. To
maintain the Boost setting on the center dual
element, use any of the left-side elements
instead.
