PARTS IDENTIFICATION

SELECTING THE PROPER COOKWARE

Your induction cooktop will not operate without the proper cookware. Size, shape, and construction are all factors for suitable cookware.

1. Suitable Cookware: the base of the cookware must be made of ferrous magnetic materials including cast iron, carbon steel, magnetic stainless steel or cast aluminum with an induction rated base.
2. Unsuitable Cookware: will cause an E0 error and will not operate.
3. In general, if a magnet will stick to the bottom of suitable cookware, it will work on your induction cooktop. A magnet is included for you to use to test your cookware.
4. If proper cookware is not available we offer an Induction Interface Disk (#6010) that will provide the necessary connectivity between the induction cooktop and your non-suitable cookware. It is normal for reduced efficiency when using the Interface Disk.

SUITABLE COOKWARE

• Cast Iron Pot
  

• Magnetic Stainless Steel Pot
  

• Magnetic Stainless Steel/Enamel

• Iron/Steel Frying Pan
  

• Iron Tray/Grille
  

• Iron Enamelware

Size and Form

• Diameter 4.5” minimum
  

Cookware should have a flat surface.

UNSUITABLE COOKWARE

Material:

1. Glass
2. Ceramic
3. Copper
4. Aluminum
5. Non Magnetic Stainless Steel

Unsuitable Size and Form

Cookware of which the height from induction plate is over 1.5” and the bottom diameter is less than 4.5”.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

If the unit doesn’t operate as intended, please see the Troubleshooting Guide. Caution: Always use a dedicated outlet. This unit is designed to operate on 120V and will require 15A. For optimum performance of your unit, use only one appliance per outlet.

Setup

1. Place the unit on a dry, level surface at least 4 inches away from other objects to allow proper ventilation from the COOL AIR INLET and WARM AIR EXHAUST FAN.
2. Plug the POWER CORD into a dedicated 120V/15A electrical socket. The red POWER INDICATOR LIGHT will illuminate.
3. Before turning the unit on, make sure the ingredients are in the proper cookware, place on the glass plate, and center it over the COOKWARE PLACEMENT GUIDES.
4. Touch the ON/Off symbol to turn the unit on. The cooling fan will run and the LCD display will default to the HEAT mode and PL-1 setting.

NOTE: It is normal for the cooling fan to operate for up to 2 minutes after the unit has powered off.

Touchpad Controls

All operations are easily controlled using the touchpad. Separate HEAT and TEMP modes provide  different cooking functions for greater flexibility and the LOCK will set your cooking program so accidental changes cannot be made. Use the TIMER to automatically turn off all programming within 1-180 minutes.

HEAT Mode (10 settings)

This mode is best when more accurate cooking temperature control is needed. It is important to realize that the following settings measure the temperature of the base of your cookware and not the temperature of the food you are cooking.

1. Touch the FUNCTION symbol to select the TEMP mode. The default temperature is 100°F (simmer). Use the  symbols to increase or decrease the temperature as needed.
2. The one-touch SIMMER function will instantly select the 100°F setting.
3. Touch the LOCK symbol at any time to lock in your desired setting. To unlock, touch and hold the LOCK symbol for 2 seconds or power the unit off.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE & CUSTOMER SERVICE

If after reviewing the troubleshooting guide the problem is not resolved, do not attempt to repair yourself. Contact your dealer or call our Customer Service Department at 1-800-227-0196 for additional information.

1. The Power Indicator light does not illuminate and/or the exhaust fan is not running.
   • The power plug may be loose in the electrical outlet or there might be a 120V power supply fault. Reset the circuit breaker and retry.
   • E3 error code means the 120V input power supply is too high or too low voltage and shuts down after one minute. Unplug from the power receptacle and use a voltage sensor to verify that the voltage is 110/120V AC. If not, switch electrical outlets or correct before operating the unit.
2. The fan is not running and the cookware is not heating up. E0 or E2 error code may be displayed.
   • The cookware may be unsuitable and it is preventing operation (see Selecting the Proper Cookware)
   • The cookware needs to be centered on the glass plate
   • The glass plate may be cracked
3. The induction cooktop suddenly stops heating during operation and shuts down. E1 or E2 error code may be displayed.
   • The overheating sensor detected an excessive high glass top temperature and caused it to automatically shutdown. Heating empty cookware may cause this. Remove cookware and let everything cool down and retry.
   • The air inlet or exhaust fan is blocked and caused it to overheat. Make sure the unit is at least 4” from walls and other objects and all vents are clear.
   • The fuse or circuit breaker has malfunctioned or the unit is unplugged.

Note: If any of the above remedies fail to correct the problem, please contact Customer Service at 1-800-227-0196
