Temperature control - Titan

The elements are controlled by variable energy
regulators giving infinite control. There is no ‘stop’ at
the low marking, this is to allow you to experiment at
finding the minimum heat for those delicate cooking
tasks. (The power level drops off rapidly to zero below
the low marking). The high setting is ideal for boiling,
searing or frying. For general cooking purposes turn
the control knob to the high setting to begin cooking
and adjust as necessary. Once your pan is hot, reduce
the temperature to maintain a steady heat to cook
your food through.

Cooking efficiency will vary due to the different types of cooking utensils used. Cooking results
are influenced by pot quality and size. It is essential that pot size matches the diameter of
the cooking zone. Use flat bottom utensils of good quality. Poor performance is often due to
incorrect pot size. You will need to experiment with the temperature settings to match your
desired cooking result.

Be sure you turn the control knob off when you finish cooking. You will feel a click at the OFF
position (marked ), and see the indicator light change colour.

Dual circuit controls

Select the full element by turning the knob anti-clockwise to high. To heat the inner element
only, turn clockwise to high.

Hot surface indicators

The indicator light glows red (CE901) or white (CE901M) whenever an element is on. After the
element has been turned off, the indicator will glow amber (CE901) or red (CE901M) until the
element surface has cooled down to a temperature that is safe to touch.

Supersimmer (CE901M only)

The front right element of your cooktop is fitted with
a unique simmer control. This allows the element to
be turned down to a very low and even power setting
(25 watts compared with 60 watts on other elements).
These lower settings are ideal for melting chocolate
and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces and
simmering soups and stews. It can also be used as a
‘warm zone’ for keeping cooked food hot.

The Supersimmer element is just as powerful (1200W)
in the top heat range as the same size standard
element (lefthand rear element) allowing food to be
browned, seared, sautéed or boiled before simmering
all on the same element.

Temperature limiters

Temperature limiters are fitted to the elements to prevent the glass from overheating. You may
notice the limiters turn the elements on and off during cooking.

Radiant elements

The element will cycle on and off to maintain your selected heat setting.

It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven, or another element, on the glass surface when

the surface is cool.

Even after the elements are turned off, the glass surface retains enough heat to continue

cooking. To avoid over-cooking, remove pans from hot elements when the food is cooked.
Avoid placing anything on a hot element until it has cooled completely (the hot surface
indicator light has gone out).
