Installation Instructions

TO BE COMPLETED BY A CERTIFIED AND INSURED FOODSERVICE EQUIPMENT TECHNICIAN

• Installation must conform to all applicable codes. Improper installation will void the manufacturer’s warranty. Do not obstruct or reduce the airflow of the ventilation openings on the sides, bottom, or the rear of the unit. Blocking airflow could cause the unit to overheat.
• Do not install near any combustible surfaces. There must be a minimum of 4″ between the induction range and any non-combustible surface to allow sufficient airflow around the unit. There must be at least ¾″ between the bottom of the induction range and the surface. Avoid placing on soft surfaces that could restrict the airflow to the bottom of the unit. There must be at least 12″ of clearance on the sides and back from combustible surfaces.
• Do not operate this product in high heat environments. Avoid placing this product near gas equipment. The maximum ambient room temperature must not exceed 100°F. Temperatures are measured in ambient air while all appliances in the kitchen are in operation.
• The power supply must comply with the rated voltage, frequency, and plug specified on the data plate and must be grounded. Do not use an extension cord with plug and cord models.
• This product conforms to UL-197 standards and must be installed under a ventilation hood for operation. Consult local laws and regulations for exhaust and ventilation. A 48″ clearance above this unit. Please ensure your electrical connection matches the specifications indicated on the serial plate.
• As a precaution, persons using a pacemaker should stand back 12″ from an operating unit. Studies have shown that the induction element will not disrupt a pacemaker. Keep all credit cards, driver licenses, and other items with a magnetic strip away from an operating unit. The unit’s magnetic field might damage the information on these strips.
• All models are equipped with an “overheating protection” feature. If the temperature of the cooking surface becomes too hot, the unit will turn off. All models are equipped with a pan detection system and a “Safety Off” feature so that when cookware is removed, the unit is switched to Standby Mode until a pot or pan is placed back on the hob.

Drop-In Model Installation

• Countertop thickness must not exceed 2″.
• Drop-in models should only be installed by professionals.

1. Ensure the installation location has proper ventilation. There must be at least 7″ of available space under the mounted induction range, and the inside temperature of the cabinet must not exceed 90°F.
2. Drop-in models feature remote control. The control panel will be mounted separately for easy access.
3. Use and place the provided template in the intended installation location, allowing at least 4″ of countertop space on each side. Cut the countertop using the template and cutout dimensions illustrated. (Fig. 1)
4. Insert the induction range into the cutout and apply a thin layer of silicone sealant around the surface.
5. Repeat similar instructions for the control panel. Center the control panel to the induction range whenever possible. 6. Connect the control panel cable to the induction range.

Induction Cooking

NOTE: The cookware must be magnetic. Before switching on the appliance, always place the magnetic cookware centered onto the cooking field.

Special Notes for Your Safety:

• This unit has been designed to meet the applicable standards for non-interference with other electronic devices. Make sure other electronic devices in the vicinity, including pacemakers and other active implants, have been designed to meet their corresponding applicable standards. As a precaution, persons using a pacemaker should stand back 12″ (30cm) from an operating unit. Studies have shown that the induction element will not disrupt a pacemaker.
• To avoid any risks, do not place very big magnetic objects (i.e. griddles) onto the cooking zone of the glass field. Do not place other magnetic objects other than cookware (i.e. credit cards, TV, radio, cassettes) near or on the glass surface of the induction cooking plate when it is in operation.
• It is recommended not to put metallic utensils (i.e. knives, pot or pan covers, etc.) on the cooking plate in case of switching on the appliance. They might get hot.
• Do not insert any objects (i.e. wires or tools) into the ventilation slots. This may cause electrical shock.
• Do not touch the hot surface of the glass field. Please note: Even though the induction cooking plate does not heat up during cooking, the temperature of the heated cookware heats up the cooking plate.

How Induction Cooking Works:

• The induction cooking plate and the cookware placed on it become connected via electromagnetism.
• Heat is generated in the bottom of the cookware and immediately directed into the food. The energy is absorbed immediately into the cookware. This guarantees extremely high cooking speed and minimal heat loss.
• High effectiveness during parboiling and minimum power consumption during cooking reduces total energy consumption up to 30%.
• Precise controlling (by 2 different adjustable functions) guarantees quickly and tightly focused heat input.
• As the induction cooking plate is only heated up by the heated cookware, the risk of scorching or burning of food residues is reduced. The induction cooking plate does not stay hot as long as standard cooking plates for easy cleaning.
• When the cookware is removed, the device automatically switches into the Standby Mode.
• The device detects whether suitable cookware is placed on the cooking plate.

Control Panel

Operation

• DO NOT use the appliance if it shows any sign of damage or malfunction. Please contact customer service.
• DO NOT place empty cookware on the appliance and DO NOT leave cookware on the appliance for too long to avoid liquid cooking off completely. Overheating the cookware will activate the boil dry protection of the device.
• The unit will automatically shut OFF after 10 continuous hours of use as a built-in safety feature. You may turn it back ON and continue using it.

Please follow the sequence below when adjusting the appliance. You can adjust power level, temperature, and cooking time (minutes) by using the rotating knob to increase or decrease.

• Power Levels: 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10…30. Defaults to 15.
• Temperature Levels: 90/95/100/105/110/115/120…460°F. Defaults to 200°F.
• Time Pre-Setting: 0 – 180 minutes (in 1 minute increments). Defaults to 180 minutes if not set.

1. Always place suitable cookware filled with food centered onto the induction cooking plate before plugging in unit or error function will occur (See Troubleshooting on Page 8).
2. Insert the plug into a suitable socket. After the unit it plugged in, a long acoustic signal will sound and the display will show “—-“.
3. Pushing the Rotating Knob will switch the device into Standby Mode. The display will show “0000” and a short acoustic signal will sound. Whenever you press button again or new button, a short acoustic signal will sound.
4. Pressing the ****button will turn on the inside fan automatically. The display will now show 15, this is an automatic setting. The appliance is now in power mode. Set the desired power (1-30) by rotating the knob.
