SPECIFICATIONS

STRUCTURE DESCRIPTION & FUNCTION

OPERATION

COOK Mode: Heat is constantly added at the selected power level.

• 7 COOK levels (wattage): 100, 300, 500, 700,900, 1100, 1300.

TEMP Mode : Unit will maintain at selected temperature.

• Temperature may vary slightly at different sections of the pot.
• Factors such as ambient temperature, type of cookware and food content may cause temperature variance up to 20°F ±.

1. Plug power cord to power source and place cookware centered on cooktop. (Once power is connected, the LOCK button will illuminate).
2. To turn on, press LOCK (LED now displays “”). Press ON/OFF button within 30 seconds. If ON/OFF is not pressed within 30 seconds, unit will return to locked mode.

4. Press + or – button to adjust cooking level or temperature setting; press LOW button to jump to lowest cook/temp setting or press HIGH button for highest cook/temp setting.
5. In TEMP mode, press the °F or 0c button to change scale display.
   Note: (D Factory default setting is COOK at 700W.
   @ Factory default setting is TEMP at 210°F /100°C.

TIMER SETTING

1. Press TIMER button.
2. Press+ or – button to set cooking time. Each single press is increment of 1 minute; press and hold for increments of 10 minutes. Press LOW button will jump to 1 minute on the timer or HIGH for the maximum 8 hours. (Default is 2 hours)

SELECTING THE PROPER COOKWARE

• The base of the cookware must be of a ferrous metal (metal that can be magnetized): Cast iron, steel and stainless steel.
  Base of cookware should be between 4.5 to 12 inches.

• A simple test to check if cookware will be compatible is to take a small magnet and place it to the bottom of pan. If the magnet firmly sticks, the cookware is compatible.
  These type of cookware will NOT work with inductions: Glass, copper, aluminum, ceramic, cookware with a concaved bottom, bowl-shaped cookware or those with a diameter smaller than 4.5 inches.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

• Unplug unit from power source.
• Wipe ceramic plate and exterior surface with a soft damp cloth. If excessively dirty, soak cloth in a mild detergent and water mixture.

KEY POINTS

• If no cookware is placed or sensed on the unit, cooker will automatically shut off alter 10 seconds.
• Cooker will automatically shut-off after 2 hours of inactivity (when not set on timer).
• Place cooktop on flat surface, but keep a clearance of 4 inches all around for proper ventilation. If air inlet or outlet is blocked, the internal temperature will rise and cause unit to overheat and shutoff during cooking.
• Keep away from water source. Never immerse unit in water or clean under running water.
• Do not place paper or cloth in between the cooktop and cookware.
• Due to the magnetic heating of the unit, keep objects that may be affected away from unit, such as credit card, watch, radio, etc.
• To prevent damage to your cookware, do not heat an empty pan.
• Do not place one cooktop on top of another.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heatedoven. If the surrounding temperature is high, unit will shut off.
• Do not use cookware consisting of inferior enamel, synthetic material, china or aluminum. DO NOT USE PLASTIC WRAP.
• Never heat an unopened can on the cooktop as it may explode.
• The ceramic plate will retain heat from the cookware; never touch the ceramic plate immediately after cookware is removed. Wait a few minutes and allow unit to cool.
• Plug cooktop in a dedicated 15-amp outlet. Do not share the outlet with other appliances.
• Do not damage the ceramic plate. Be careful not to drop anything onto the ceramic plate. If the plate is broken or cracked, stop using immediately. Turn unit off and unplug.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• Is cooktop firmly plugged into a correct outlet?
• Is cooktop plugged in a dedicated outlet?
• Has the unit been dropped or handled roughly? If so, we suggest sending it in for evaluation
• Was there a oower shortage?

Unit suddenly stops heating during normal operation|

• There may have been a power shortage at the facility where the unit is being used and starving the unit of power. This may also occur if you are not using a dedicated circuit.
• Check if another appliance is drawing from the same circuit.
• Check if the fan is still running .
• Are the air vents blocked? Check if dust or grease is clogging the vents.
• Make sure enough clearance is around the unit.
• Unit was set on cook mode and idle for 2 hours . Unit’s safety automatically shuts unit off after 2 hours with no settina chanaes.

Pan does not get hot enough even though temperature is set on high|

• Are you using an extension cord? Any use of an extension cord over 10 feet will affect the power from reaching the cooktop.
• It is possible that the internal coil supports may have been “dropped ” due to the unit being mishandled or frequently moved. If this is the case, it will need to be sent in for repai r.

Pan cooks unevenly or does not maintain heat level|

• Is base of cookeware convex/concave shaped or dented?
• Pan is smaller than 4.5″ or larger than 12″.
• Pan mav not be centered.

Fan continues to run after unit is turned off|

• The fan will continue to run until unit is completely cooled down . This is a safety feature and designed to help preserve the life of the cooktoo.

ERROR CODE

• Either there is no cookware or no compatible cookware placed on unit.
• Cookware may be too small or too large for the electromagnetic field.

Additional safeguards

Do not operate appliance if the power cord shows any signs of damage, or if appliance works intermittently or stops working entirely.

1. A short power-supply cord should be used to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. If a longer extension cord must be used:
3. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
4. The cord should be arranged so that ii will not drape over the countertop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
