• Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilover causes smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite.
• Always turn off all controls when cooking is completed.
• Keep pets away from the product to avoid risk of fire or burns. Do not allow pets to climb on the product
even when it is not in operation.
• Liquids such as water, coffee or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling, due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling is not always
present when the container is removed from the cooktop. This could result in very hot liquids suddenly
boiling over when the container is disturbed or a spoon or other utensil is inserted into the liquid. To
reduce the risk of injury to persons:
- Do not overheat the liquid.
- Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
- Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
- After heating, allow the container to stand on the cooktop for a short time before moving the
container.
- Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container after heating.
• Do not use the cooktop as a work surface or storage space.
• Do not operate the cooking zones with empty pots or pans.

6 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION STATEMENTS
CAUTION
• To reduce the risk of minor or moderate injury to persons, malfunction, or damage to the product or
property when using this product, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Operation
• This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the home. It is not designed for
commercial or industrial purposes.
• Use proper pan sizes. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes.
• Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the cooking zones.
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are suitable
for rangetop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for cooktop use.
• Do not place hot cookware on cold cooktop glass. This could cause the glass to break.
• Do not slide pans across the cooktop surface. They may scratch the cooktop surface.
• Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marking
that can affect the ceramic-glass cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.)
• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly, meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160 ℉ and poultry to at
least an INTERNAL temperature of 180 ℉. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against food-
borne illnesses.
• Prior to using the cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning cream to the
ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or pad. This will make cleaning easier when the cooktop
gets soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to
help prevent scratches and abrasions.
• Please be careful of the cooktop edges when moving pots and pans.
• Ceramic glass is very tough, and impervious to sharp temperature changes, but is not unbreakable. It
can be damaged if hard or sharp objects fall on it.
• Be very cautious if using pots made of cast iron, or other pots with rough edges or burrs. Moving these
can cause scratches on the glass.
• Do not slide metal or glass across the cooktop surface.
• Do not use cookware with any dirt buildup on the bottom.
• Do not use cookware with rough or uneven bottoms. This cookware can mark and scratch the cooktop
surface.
• Do not use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control
system.
Maintenance
• Always switch off the appliance before cleaning.
• For safety reasons, do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high-pressure cleaner.
• Clean the cooktop in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning instructions in this manual.
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or rough metal scrapers to clean the cooktop glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
• Clean the cooktop cautiously. Do not use sponges or cloth to wipe spills on a hot cooking area. Use a
proper metal scraper.
7IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ENGLISH
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• If sugar or a mixture containing sugar falls onto a hot cooking zone and melts, remove it with a metal

16 OPERATION
OPERATION
Cookware
Selecting Cookware
Pots and Pans
The better the pot, the better the cooking results.
• You can recognize good pots and pans by their
bases. The base should be as thick and flat as
possible.
• Pots with aluminum or copper bases can cause
metallic discoloring on the ceramic glass surface
which is very difficult or impossible to remove.
• Be very careful when using cast iron pots or pots
with damaged bases which are rough and or
have burrs on them. Scratches can occur if they
are slid across the surface.
• When cold, pot bases are normally bowed
slightly inwards (concave). They should never be
bowed outwards (convex).
• When using specialty cookware such as pressure
cookers, simmering pans, or woks, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and do not use a
very thin pan.
Use Flat-Bottomed Cookware
Cookware must fully contact the surface of the
cooking element. Use flat-bottomed pans sized to
fit the cooking element and amount of food being
prepared. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware.
Avoiding Scratches
Use heavier gauge stainless steel cookware on
your ceramic cooktop surface. This will help reduce
the possibility of developing scratches on the
ceramic surface.
Low-quality cookware can scratch the cooktop
surface.
Cookware should always be lifted over the ceramic
cooktop surface to prevent scratching. Over time,
sliding ANY type of cookware over the ceramic
cooktop may alter the overall appearance of the
cooktop. Eventually, the buildup of scratches can
make cleaning the surface difficult and degrade
the overall appearance of the cooktop.
Scratches can also result from grains of sand (for
example, after washing vegetables) which are
dragged with the pot across the cooking surface.
Using Cookware
Always follow the recommendations for proper
cookware type and size. In addition:
• Do not use dirty pans with grease buildup.
Always use pans that are easy to clean after
cooking, and make sure that the bottoms of the
pans are clean and dry.
• When cooking with large amounts of liquid, use
large pots so that nothing can boil over.
• Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause
permanent damage in the form of breakage,
fusion, or marring that can affect the ceramic
cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by
your warranty.)
• Match the pan size and element to the amount
of food being prepared.
Tips for Saving Energy
• Always position pots and pans before you switch
on the element.
• Dirty elements and cookware use more
electricity.
• Whenever possible, always have the lid firmly
placed on the pots and pans so that they are
completely covered.
• Switch off the elements before the end of the
cooking time to use the residual heat for
keeping food warm or for melting.
17OPERATION
ENGLISH
• The base of the pot should be the same size as
the element.
• Using a pressure cooker shortens cooking times
by up to 50%.

scratch, damage or stain the cooktop surface.
To maintain and protect the surface of the glass
cooktop, follow these steps:
1 Before using the cooktop for the first time,
clean it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This
helps protect the top and makes cleanup
easier.
2 Use ceramic cooktop cleaner regularly to help
keep the cooktop looking new. Always allow
the cooktop to cool before using ceramic
cooktop cleaner.
3 Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few
drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop.

Before Calling for Service
Before calling for service, review this list. It may save you time and expense. This list includes common
occurrences that are not the result of a defect in workmanship or materials.
Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause & Solution
The surface units will
not maintain a
rolling boil or will not
cook fast enough.
You may be using inappropriate cookware.
• Use pans which are flat and match the diameter of the surface unit selected.
In some areas, the power (voltage) may be low.
• Cover the pan with a lid until the desired heat is obtained.
The surface units will
not turn on.
A fuse in your home may be blown or a circuit breaker may have tripped.
• Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
The cooktop controls are set improperly.
• Check if the correct control is set for the surface unit you are using.
Areas of
discoloration on the
cooktop.
Food spillover was not cleaned.
• Refer to the Maintenance section.
The surface is hot and the model features a light colored cooktop.
• This is normal. The surface may appear discolored when it is hot. This is temporary and will
disappear as the glass cools.
The surface unit
frequently cycles on
and off.
The element will cycle on and off to maintain the power setting.
• This is normal operation, and not a system failure. Cycling at the high power setting is
normal and can occur if the cookware is too small for the cooktop element or if the
cookware bottom is not flat. Use the cooktop as usual.
The surface unit
stops glowing when
changed to a lower
setting.
The unit is still on and hot.
• This is normal.
Scratches or
abrasions on the
cooktop surface.
The cooktop is being cleaned improperly.
• Scratches are not removable. Tiny scratches will become less visible in time as a result of
cleaning. Use ceramic glass top cleaning cream. Do not use chemical or corrosive agents.
These agents may damage the surface of the product.
Cookware with rough bottoms was used on the cooktop or there were coarse particles
(eg. salt or sand) present between the cookware and the surface of the cooktop.
• To avoid scratches, follow the recommended cleaning procedures. Make sure cookware
bottoms are clean before use, and use cookware with smooth bottoms.
Cookware has been slid across the cooktop surface.
• To avoid scratches, follow the recommended cleaning procedures. Make sure cookware
bottoms are clean before use, and use cookware with smooth bottoms.
Brown streaks or
specks.
Boilovers have been cooked onto the surface.
• Wait until the surface cools down. Then, use a single-edge razor-blade scraper at
approximately a 45° angle against the glass surface to remove the soil.
• See the Maintenance section.
27TROUBLESHOOTING
ENGLISH
Areas of
discoloration with
metallic sheen.
Mineral deposits from water and food have been left on the surface of the cooktop.
• Remove using a glass-ceramic cooktop cleaner.
• Use cookware with clean, dry bottoms. Clean the cooktop with a ceramic cleaning agent
regularly every week.
Cracking or
"popping" sound.
This is the sound of the metal heating and cooling during cooking.
• This is normal operation and not a system failure. Use the cooktop as usual.

PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES:
ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND LG ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS LIMITED
WARRANTY OR THE PRODUCT SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION, AND
NOT IN A COURT OF GENERAL JURISDICTION. BINDING ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU AND LG ARE EACH
WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
Definitions. For the purposes of this section, references to “LG” mean LG Electronics U.S.A., Inc., its
parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their officers, directors, employees, agents, beneficiaries,
predecessors in interest, successors, assigns and suppliers; references to “dispute” or “claim” shall include
any dispute, claim or controversy of any kind whatsoever (whether based in contract, tort, statute,
regulation, ordinance, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable theory) arising out of or
relating in any way to the sale, condition or performance of the product or this Limited Warranty.
Notice of Dispute. In the event you intend to commence an arbitration proceeding, you must first notify
LG in writing at least 30 days in advance of initiating the arbitration by sending a letter to LG at LG
Electronics, USA, Inc. Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration 111 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632.
You and LG agree to engage in good faith discussions in an attempt to amicably resolve your claim. The
notice must provide your name, address, and telephone number; identify the product that is the subject of
the claim; and describe the nature of the claim and the relief being sought. If you and LG are unable to
resolve the dispute within 30 days, either party may proceed to file a claim for arbitration.
31LIMITED WARRANTY
ENGLISH
Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. Upon failure to resolve the dispute during
the 30 day period after sending written notice to LG, you and LG agree to resolve any claims between us
only by binding arbitration on an individual basis, unless you opt out as provided below. Any dispute
between you and LG shall not be combined or consolidated with a dispute involving any other person’s or
entity’s product or claim. More specifically, without limitation of the foregoing, any dispute between you
and LG shall not under any circumstances proceed as part of a class or representative action. Instead of
arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court, but that small claims court
action may not be brought on a class or representative basis.
Arbitration Rules and Procedures. To begin arbitration of a claim, either you or LG must make a written
demand for arbitration. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association
(“AAA”) and will be conducted before a single arbitrator under the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules that
are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (referred to as the “AAA Rules”) and under the
procedures set forth in this section. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org/consumer. Send a
copy of your written demand for arbitration, as well as a copy of this provision, to the AAA in the manner
described in the AAA Rules. You must also send a copy of your written demand to LG at LG Electronics,
USA, Inc. Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration 111 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632. If there is a
conflict between the AAA Rules and the rules set forth in this section, the rules set forth in this section will
govern. This arbitration provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. Judgment may be entered on
the arbitrator’s award in any court of competent jurisdiction. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide,
except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision and to the
arbitrability of the dispute are for the court to decide. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this
provision.
Governing Law. The law of the state of your residence shall govern this Limited Warranty and any
disputes between us except to the extent that such law is preempted by or inconsistent with applicable
federal law.
Fees/Costs. You do not need to pay any fee to begin an arbitration. Upon receipt of your written demand
for arbitration, LG will promptly pay all arbitration filing fees to the AAA unless you seek more than $25,000
in damages, in which case the payment of these fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Except as
otherwise provided for herein, LG will pay all AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees for any
arbitration initiated in accordance with the AAA Rules and this arbitration provision. If you prevail in the
arbitration, LG will pay your attorneys’ fees and expenses as long as they are reasonable, by considering
factors including, but not limited to, the purchase amount and claim amount. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if applicable law allows for an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, an arbitrator
can award them to the same extent that a court would. If the arbitrator finds either the substance of your
claim or the relief sought in the demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by
the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all arbitration fees will
be governed by the AAA Rules. In such a situation, you agree to reimburse LG for all monies previously
disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise
provided for, LG waives any rights it may have to seek attorneys’ fees and expenses from you if LG prevails
in the arbitration.
Hearings and Location. If your claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose to have the arbitration
conducted solely on the basis of (1) documents submitted to the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic
hearing, or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $25,000, the
right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Any in-person arbitration hearings will be held at a
location within the federal judicial district in which you reside unless we both agree to another location or
we agree to a telephonic arbitration.
Opt Out. You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. If you opt out, neither you nor LG can
require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must send notice to LG no
later than 30 calendar days from the date of the first consumer purchaser’s purchase of the product by
either: (i) sending an e-mail to opto[email protected], with the subject line: “Arbitration Opt Out” or (ii) calling 1-
800-980-2973. You must include in the opt out e-mail or provide by telephone: (a) your name and address;
(b) the date on which the product was purchased; (c) the product model name or model number; and (d)
the serial number (the serial number can be found (i) on the product; or (ii) online by accessing https://
www.lg.com/us/support/repair-service/schedule-repair-continued and clicking on “Find My Model & Serial
Number”).
You may only opt out of the dispute resolution procedure in the manner described above (that is, by e-mail
or telephone); no other form of notice will be effective to opt out of this dispute resolution procedure.
32 LIMITED WARRANTY
Opting out of this dispute resolution procedure will not affect the coverage of the Limited Warranty in any
way, and you will continue to enjoy the full benefits of the Limited Warranty. If you keep this product and
do not opt out, then you accept all terms and conditions of the arbitration provision described above.

PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES:
EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED AT LAW, ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND LG ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
IN ANY WAY TO THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR THE PRODUCT SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH
BINDING ARBITRATION, AND NOT IN A COURT OF GENERAL JURISDICTION. EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED
AT LAW, YOU AND LG BOTH IRREVOCABLY AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO BRING
OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
35LIMITED WARRANTY
ENGLISH
Definitions. For the purposes of this section, references to “LG” mean LG Electronics Canada, Inc., its
parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their officers, directors, employees, agents, beneficiaries,
predecessors in interest, successors, assigns and suppliers; references to “dispute” or “claim” shall include
any dispute, claim or controversy of any kind whatsoever (whether based in contract, tort, statute,
regulation, ordinance, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable theory) arising out of or
relating in any way to the sale, condition or performance of the product or this Limited Warranty.
Notice of Dispute. In the event you intend to commence an arbitration proceeding, you must first notify
LG in writing at least 30 days in advance of initiating the arbitration by sending a letter to LGECI Legal
Team at 20 Norelco Drive, North York, Ontario, Canada M9L 2X6 (the “Notice of Dispute”). You and LG
agree to engage in good faith discussions in an attempt to amicably resolve your claim. The notice must
provide your name, address, and telephone number; identify the product that is the subject of the claim;
and describe the nature of the claim and the relief being sought. If you and LG are unable to resolve the
dispute within 30 days of LG’s receipt of the Notice of Dispute, the dispute shall be resolved by binding
arbitration in accordance with the procedure set out herein. You and LG both agree that, during the
arbitration proceeding, the terms (including any amount) of any settlement offer made by either you or LG
will not be disclosed to the arbitrator until the arbitrator determines the dispute.
Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. Upon failure to resolve the dispute during
the 30 day period after LG’s receipt of the Notice of Dispute, you and LG agree to resolve any claims
between you and LG only by binding arbitration on an individual basis, unless you opt out as provided
below, or you reside in a jurisdiction that prevents full application of this clause in the circumstances of the
claims at issue (in which case if you are a consumer, this clause will only apply if you expressly agree to the
arbitration). To the extent permitted by applicable law, any dispute between you and LG shall not be
combined or consolidated with a dispute involving any other person’s or entity’s product or claim. More
specifically, without limitation of the foregoing, except to the extent such a prohibition is not permitted at
law, any dispute between you and LG shall not under any circumstances proceed as part of a class or
representative action. Instead of arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in small claims
court, but that small claims court action may not be brought on a class or representative basis except to
the extent this prohibition is not permitted at law in your province or territory of jurisdiction as it relates to
the claims at issue between you and LG.
Arbitration Rules and Procedures. To begin arbitration of a claim, either you or LG must make a written
demand for arbitration. The arbitration will be private and confidential, and conducted on a simplified and
expedited basis before a single arbitrator chosen by the parties under the provincial or territorial
commercial arbitration law and rules of the province or territory of your residence. You must also send a
copy of your written demand to LG at LG Electronics, Canada, Inc., Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration, 20
Norelco Drive, North York, Ontario M9L 2X6. This arbitration provision is governed by your applicable
provincial or territorial commercial arbitration legislation. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s
award in any court of competent jurisdiction. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that, issues
relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision and to the arbitrability of the dispute
are for the court to decide. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this provision.
Governing Law. The law of the province or territory of your purchase shall govern this Limited Warranty
and any disputes between you and LG except to the extent that such law is preempted by or inconsistent
with applicable federal or provincial/territorial law. Should arbitration not be permitted for any claim,
action, dispute or controversy between you and LG, you and LG attorn to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
courts of the province or territory of your purchase for the resolution of the claim, action, dispute or
controversy between you and LG.
Fees/Costs. You do not need to pay any fee to begin an arbitration. Upon receipt of your written demand
for arbitration, LG will promptly pay all arbitration filing fees unless you seek more than $25,000 in
damages, in which case the payment of these fees will be governed by the applicable arbitration rules.
Except as otherwise provided for herein, LG will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for any
arbitration initiated in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules and this arbitration provision. If you
prevail in the arbitration, LG will pay your attorneys’ fees and expenses as long as they are reasonable, by
considering factors including, but not limited to, the purchase amount and claim amount. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if applicable law allows for an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, an
arbitrator can award them to the same extent that a court would. If the arbitrator finds either the
substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose
(as measured by the applicable laws), then the payment of all arbitration fees will be governed by the
applicable arbitration rules. In such a situation, you agree to reimburse LG for all monies previously
disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the applicable arbitration rules. Except as
36 LIMITED WARRANTY
otherwise provided for, LG waives any rights it may have to seek attorneys’ fees and expenses from you if
LG prevails in the arbitration.
Hearings and Location. If your claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose to have the arbitration
conducted solely (1) on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic
hearing, or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the applicable arbitration rules. If your claim
exceeds $25,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the applicable arbitration rules. Any in-
person arbitration hearings will be held at the nearest, most mutually-convenient arbitration location
available within the province or territory in which you reside unless you and LG both agree to another
location or agree to a telephonic arbitration.
Severability and Waiver. If any portion of this Limited Warranty (including these arbitration procedures)
is unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law. Should LG fail to enforce strict performance of any provision of this Limited
Warranty (including these arbitration procedures), it does not mean that LG intends to waive or has waived
any provision or part of this Limited Warranty.
Opt Out. You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. If you opt out, neither you nor LG can
require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must send notice to LG no
later than 30 calendar days from the date of the first consumer purchaser’s purchase of the product by
either (i) sending an e-mail to [email protected], with the subject line: “Arbitration Opt Out;” or (ii) calling 1-
800-980-2973. You must include in the opt out e-mail or provide by telephone: (a) your name and address;
(b) the date on which the product was purchased; (c) the product model name or model number; and (d)
the serial number (the serial number can be found (i) on the product; or (ii) online by accessing https://
www.lg.com/ca_en/support/repair-service/schedule-repair and clicking on “Find My Model & Serial
Number”).
In the event that you “Opt Out”, the law of the province or territory of your residence shall govern this
Limited Warranty and any disputes between you and LG except to the extent that such law is preempted
by or inconsistent with applicable federal or provincial/territorial law. Should arbitration not be permitted
for any claim, action, dispute or controversy between you and LG, you and LG agree to attorn to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the province or territory of your residence for the resolution of the
claim, action, dispute or controversy between you and LG.
You may only opt out of the dispute resolution procedure in the manner described above (that is, by e-mail
or telephone); no other form of notice will be effective to opt out of this dispute resolution procedure.
Opting out of this dispute resolution procedure will not affect the coverage of the Limited Warranty in any
way, and you will continue to enjoy the full benefits of the Limited Warranty. If you keep this product and
do not opt out, then you accept all terms and conditions of the arbitration provision described above.
Conflict of Terms. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Limited Warranty
and the End User License Agreement (“EULA”) in regards to dispute resolution, the terms of this Limited
Warranty shall control and govern the rights and obligations of the parties and shall take precedence over
the EULA.
