The Electronic Surface Element Control (ESEC)

The Eiectronic Surface Element Control {“ESEC”) feature

includes 4 digital display windows. The ESEC feature provides

a numeric digital setting for 4 of the radiant surface element

positions on the cooktop, including shared settings at the left

front knob control position for both the left front radiant

element and the “Bridge” radiant element. Also the right front

control knob position shares settings for the dual radiant

element. These settings work the same way as normal knob

setting indicators work except the settings are displayed in

digital windows {Figures 1 thru 4).

The available ESEC Display Settings

The ESEC control provides various heat levels from Hi {Fig. 2)

to Lo {Fig. 4) and OFF {Fig. 1). The settings from Hi to 3.0

decrease in increments of .5. The settings from 3.0 to Lo

{Simmer settings) decrease in increments of .2 for more

precise settings of lower heat levels.

Use the chart {Fig. 5) to determine the correct setting for the

kind of food you are preparing. The Simmer settings are used

to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods warm such as

stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal for

delicate foods and melting chocolate or butter.

Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the

setting needed for best cooking results.
