OPERATION AUTOMATIC POWER LEVEL CONTROL • The power level displayed may be different from the actual power level at the power sharing and high temperature range. To prevent the cooktop from overheating, the power level is controlled automatically. POWER BOOST MODE • The POWER BOOST is used to cook at maximum power for a short period of time (maximum 10 minutes). • This is best recommended for boiling water. • The power is reduced to level 9 at the end of the maximum time.
OPERATION POWER SHARING • Four or five cooktops are divided into two separate cooking areas: the right and left side cooking elements share the power of an inverter. • Power sharing is activated when the cooking elements that are in the same zone are activated. The controls adjust the power automatically for POWER SHARING. This power sharing is administered by the unit’s microprocessors, which will alternate power in one area.
OPERATION RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR • After using the cooktop, the cooking area will remain hot for a few minutes. The digital display will show an “H” to warn the user that the surface is hot to touch. Wait until the “H” is no longer displayed to clean the unit. You may turn the cooktop on even if the “H” is displayed. ONLY FOR 24” MODEL (RCIND-24) STOP/GO Use the Stop/Go function to ‘Pause’ the cooktop for Max.

TO SET TIMER • While cooking, touch the timer key pad until the time light of the desired cooking element is on.
OPERATION COOKWARE NOISE • Heavier pans such as enameled cast iron, will produce less noise than a lighter stainless steel pan. Light weight cookware may also vibrate. Heavy weight quality cookware is recommended. • Cookware with irregular or warped bottoms can vibrate audibly on the ceramic glass surface, though again, typically only at high power settings. • Loose-fitting handles on cookware, typically when rivets are used, can vibrate.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Before using the product for the first time, clean the top to protect and make cleanups easier. Daily use of a ceramic glass cleaner will keep the cooktop looking new with every use. • Use a ceramic glass cleaner when the cooktop is cool • Apply a few drops directly to the cooktop and use a paper tower or a soft cleaning pad. • Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue.
