Safety
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction.
Electrical
The cooktop must connect to a separate, grounded wire, single phase, AC only
electrical supply with its own circuit breaker. These appliances must be installed in
accordance with National Electrical Codes, as well as all state, municipal and local
codes. This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency and
amperage, which is protected by a properly sized circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
IMPORTANT: Use the 3-wire cable from home power supply where local codes
permit a 3-wire connection.
Induction technology works on a magnetic system, where the magnetic coil located
under the glass heats the same portion of the pan located above. The rest of the pan
is heated using conduction heat.
If the induction pan is thin, the center area becomes hotter than the rest of the pan.
Use 3-Ply Induction Cookware to Ensure Food Cooks evenly
Induction - High Heat at Center
Conduction - Lower Heat around the Sides
Compatible Cookware
For all cooking, please start with low heat and gradually increase to medium heat
as needed
Induction compatible cookware showing the induction logo or be made of high
quality stainless steel (3-ply). This can be determined if a magnet sticks to the base
of the pan.
To ensure even heating it is important to use thick based pans e.g. 3-Ply / Layer.
Cookware Requirements:
Induction Cooking Tips:
The following are not compatible: glass, ceramic, copper, aluminum,
round-bottomed cookware, or cookware with a base less than 5 inches.
NOTE: Some cookware can produce noises when using induction cooking. This is
not a fault in the cooktop, and its function will not be impaired in any way as a result.
The use of some types of light weight cookware may produce various sounds and
vibrations, particularly when cooking at high power levels. High quality cookware is
recommended.
Use High heat only for boiling water quickly
If you own thin based induction cookware, the center portion will heat faster than
the outside sections of the pan. To solve this problem, cook on the outer sections
to ensure even heating of food and prevent burning.
Continuously stir or turn over to prevent food from sticking to the pan
