IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
WARNING
Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in fire, electrical shock, serious injury or
death.
WARNING
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Use this cooktop only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
- Be sure your cooktop is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer in accordance with the provided installation instructions.
- Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your cooktop unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be performed by a qualified technician.
- Before performing any service, unplug the cooktop or disconnect the power supply at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker.
- Do not leave children alone—children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the cooktop is in use. They should never be allowed to climb, sit or stand on any part of the cooktop.
- CAUTION Do not store items of interest to children above the cooktop—children climbing on the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.
- Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
- Never use your cooktop for warming or heating the room.
- Do not touch surface elements. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact the surface elements or areas nearby the surface elements; allow sufficient time for cooling first.
- Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
- Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.
- Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an internal temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an internal temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
WARNING
KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE COOKTOP
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
- Do not store or use flammable materials near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
- Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the cooktop. These garments may ignite if they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.
- Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the cooktop. Grease on the cooktop may ignite.
WARNING
COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- In the event of a fire, do not use water or grease on fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitted lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or a foam-type fire extinguisher.
- Never leave the surface units unattended. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
- Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.
- To avoid spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.
- Use the proper pan size – select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.
- To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby surface units.
WARNING
INDUCTION COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
-
Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been tured off.
-
Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the glass cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
-
Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as knives, sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.
-
Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used.
If the cooktop is inadvertently turned on, they may ignite. Heat from the cooktop or oven vent after it is turned off may cause them to ignite also. -
Do not place metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons, and lids on the cooktop surface as they can get hot.
-
Use ceramic cooktop cleaner and non-scratch cleaning pad to clean the cooktop. Wait until the cooktop cools and the indicator light goes out before cleaning. A wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can cause steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label. NOTE: Sugary spills are an exception.
They should be scraped off while still hot using an oven mitt and a scraper. See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section for detailed instructions. -
CAUTION Persons with a pacemaker or similar medical device should exercise caution when using or standing near an induction cooktop while it is in operation. The electromagnetic field may affect the working of the pacemaker or similar medical device. It is advisable to consult your doctor or the pacemaker manufacturer about your particular situation.

HOW INDUCTION COOKING WORKS
The magnetic fields induce a small current in the pan. The pan acts as a
resistor, which produces heat, much like a radiant coil.
The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat is produced in the cooking pan,
and cannot be generated until a pan is placed on the cooking surface.
When the element is activated, the pan begins to heat immediately and in turn
heats the contents of the pan.
Magnetic induction cooking requires the use of cookware stick, such as iron or
steel.
Use pans that fit the element size. The pan must be large enough for the
safety sensor to activate an element.
The cooktop will not operate if a very small steel or iron utensil (less than
the minimum size across the bottom) is items such as steel spatulas, cooking
spoons, knives and other small utensils. Use the minimum size pan for the
element. The pan material is correct if a magnet sticks to the bottom.
COOKWARE “NOISE”
Slight sounds may be produced by different types of cookware. Heavier pans
such as enameled cast iron produce less sound than a lighter weight multi-ply
stainless steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount of contents, can also
contribute to the sound level.
When using adjacent elements that are set at certain power level settings,
magnetic fields may interact and produce a high pitch whistle or intermittent
“hum”. These sounds can be reduced or eliminated by lowering or raising the
power level settings of one or both of the elements.
Pans that completely cover the element ring will produce less sound.
A low “humming” sound is normal particularly on high settings.
Sounds you may hear: You may hear a slight “Buzz” when cooking with Hi mode.
This is normal. The sound depends on the type of pot being used. Some pots
will “Buzz” louder depending on the material. A “Buzz” sound may be heard if
the pan contents are cold. As the pan heats, the sound will decrease. If the
power level is reduced, the sound level will go down.
Pans that do not meet the minimum size requirements for the burner can produce
louder sounds. They can cause the controller to “search” for the pot and
produce a clicking and “zipping” sound. This can happen when one burner is
running or only when an adjacent burner is also running.
See User Manual for the minimum sized pots for each burner. Only measure the
flat, magnetic bottom of the pot.
CHOOSING THE CORRECT COOKWARE TO USE
Using the correct size cookware
The induction coils require a minimum pan size to function properly. If the
pan is removed from the element for more than 25 seconds or not detected the
ON indicator for that element will flash and then turn off.
Cookware larger than the element ring may be used; however, heat will only
occur above the element.
For best results, the cookware must make FULL contact with the glass surface.
Do not allow the bottom of the pan or cookware to touch the surrounding metal
cooktop trim or to overlap the cooktop controls.
For best performance, match the pan size to the element size. Using a smaller
pot on a larger burner will generate less power at any given setting.
Suitable Cookware
Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution and
even cooking results. Choose cookware made of magnetic stainless steel, enamel
coated cast iron, enameled steel and combinations of these materials.
Some cookware is specifically identified by the manufacturer for use with
induction cooktops. Use a magnet to test if the cookware will work.
Flat-bottomed pans give best results. Pans with rims or slight ridges can be
used.
Round pans give best results. Pans with warped or curved bottoms will not heat
evenly.
For wok cooking, use a flat-bottomed wok. Do not use a wok with a support
ring. 30” wide cooktop.
Use the minimum recommended size pan shown for each cooking element. 36” wide
cooktop.
Use the minimum recommended size pan shown for each cooking element.
Cookware recommendations
Cookware must fully contact the surface of the cooking element.
Use flat-bottomed pans sized to fit the cooking element and also to the amount
of food being prepared.
Induction interface disks are NOT recommended.
Precision Device Minimum Temperatures Device temperature ranges are dependent on burner size:
Device | Small to Medium Burners (A) | Large Burners (B) |
---|---|---|
Hestan Cue® cookware | 100°F – 500°F | 150°F – 500°F |
Precision Probe | 100°F – 200°F | 120°F – 200°F |
Using the Precision Probe at low temperatures
If you are experiencing trouble maintaining lower set temperatures with a
precision probe, try changing your set-up by:
- Remove the lid from the pot
- Use a larger diameter pot
- Use a smaller bumer with a pot larger than the burner

CARE AND CLEANING
CLEANING THE GLASS COOKTOP
To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop, follow these
steps:
- Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier.
- Regular use of a ceramic cooktop cleaner will help keep the cooktop looking new.
- Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of a ceramic cooktop cleaner directly to the cooktop.
- Use a paper towel or a non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops to clean the entire cooktop surface.
- Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. No need to rinse.
NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly. Clean your cooktop after each spill. Use a ceramic cooktop cleaner.
BURNED-ON RESIDUE
NOTE: DAMAGE to your glass surface may occur if you use scrub pads other
than those recommended.
- Allow the cooktop to cool.
- Spread a few drops of a ceramic cooktop cleaner on the entire burned residue area.
- Using a non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops, rub the residue area, applying pressure as needed.
- If any residue remains, repeat the steps listed above as needed.
- For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface with a ceramic cooktop cleaner and a paper towel.
Use a non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops.
HEAVY, BURNED-ON RESIDUE
- Allow the cooktop to cool.
- Use a single-edge razor blade scraper at approximately a 45° angle against the glass surface and scrape the soil. It will be necessary to apply pressure to the razor scraper in order to remove the residue.
- After scraping with the razor scraper, spread a few drops of a ceramic cooktop cleaner on the entire burned residue area. Use a non-scratch cleaning pad to remove any remaining residue.
- For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface with a ceramic cooktop cleaner and a paper towel.
The ceramic cooktop scraper and all recommended supplies are available through
our Parts Center. See instructions under “Assistance / Accessories” section.
NOTE: Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
METAL MARKS AND SCRATCHES
-
Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop surface.
These marks are removable using a ceramic cooktop cleaner with a non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops. -
If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black discoloration on the cooktop.
This should be removed immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.
NOTE: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness that would scratch the cooktop.
DAMAGE FROM SUGARY SPILLS AND MELTED PLASTIC
Special care should be taken when removing hot substances to avoid permanent
damage of the glass surface.
Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy, syrups) or melted plastics
can cause pitting of the surface of your cooktop (not covered by the warranty)
unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when
removing hot substances.
Be sure to use a new, sharp razor scraper.
Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
-
Turn off all surface units. Remove hot pans.
-
Wearing an oven mitt:
a. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper to move the spill to a cool area on the cooktop.
b. Remove the spill with paper towels. -
Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.
-
Don’t use the surface units again until all of the residue has been completely removed.
NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass surface has already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.
