HOW INDUCTION COOKING WORKS
Induction cooking uses magnetism to transfer energy into the bottom of your cookware. The surface of the cooktop doesn’t get as hot as conventional cooktops – it sends
the energy directly to the cookware. As long as the energy is transferring into the cookware, the cookware will stay hot. Once the energy is removed or reduced, the cookware begins to cool instantly.
SELECTING COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION COOKTOPS
Use only induction-ready cookware
Selecting the proper induction­ready cookware is very important to the efciency of your induction cooktop. As a general rule, copper, aluminum and glassware will not work on an induction cooktop. Waring highly recommends using magnetic stainless steel, enamel, porcelain on steel, or cast iron. If you are not careful in your selection of cookware for your cooktop, the cookware may not work efciently or possibly may cause damage to the electronics. As a general rule, if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, it will work on an induction cooktop. If a magnet does not stick to the cookware, it will not work on an induction cooktop. If you are unsure, it is best to check with your local merchant to make sure you are purchasing compatible cookware.
Note: Not for use with pans smaller than 4.7" (12 cm) diameter.

press the button labelled HEAT on the left hand side. (Indicator light labelled HEAT will illuminate). To increase heat, press the
to the desired

3. Timer Function

or repeatedly to set the timer to your desired cooking time. If you press and hold the up or down arrow, the timer will advance rapidly. The timer can be adjusted to a maximum time of 150 minutes. At the end of the timed cycle, the timer will beep three times.
NOTE: Your induction cooktop
runs for 180 minutes per use. The timer runs for 150 minutes per use. If the cooktop has been operating for more than 30 minutes and you set the timer for 150 minutes (for a total cooking time of more than 180 minutes), the timer function will be shortened.

5. Unit automatically turns off when cookware exceeds temperature limit. This prevents burning empty pots. Built-in surge protection.
6. When the unit is off, the fan may continue running for a minute or more.
NOTE: If the unit is turned on
and no cookware is put on the cooking surface, the unit will beep and turn off after 30 seconds. If you remove the cookware from the cooking surface during the operation mode, the unit will beep and will automatically turn off after 30 seconds.
If your cookware overheats,
the unit will give a long beeping sound and will automatically turn off.
NOTE: The cooking surface will be hot after use, and care should be taken when adding on or removing cooking utensils from the cooktop to avoid burns.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Because it does not generate its own heat, the induction cooktop has no grates or carbon buildup to clean. Since you don’t have scorching heat going up the sides of your cookware, the cookware stays cleaner longer.
Use a damp cloth with mild soap on the control panel, or use a non­abrasive cooktop cleaning product (specically made for smooth tops and available in most grocery stores).
Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.
