Description of Product

Built with a robust construction, our induction appliances are compact and powerful with the revolutionary RTCSmp® Technology (Realtime Temperature Control System).

The RTCSmp® Technology monitors continuously in realtime, the energy supply, temperature of the cook zone and the state of the components such as the induction coil. This monitoring system ensures the most efficient energy transfer, as well as maximizes safety:

• When a malfunction occurs, the integrated fault diagnostic system reports the malfunction.

Application

The RTCSmp® induction appliances are designed as compact equipment for use on the surface of a counter or table.

The patented

induction RTCSmp® Griddles are

engineered for cooking a large variety of meals.

Many applications are possible because:

• Instant energy transmission from induction coil to griddle plate surface allows for fast startup time.

• Heat distribution is even from corner to corner, across the entire cooking surface.

• The cooking surface is controlled and monitored by multiple sensors. Instantaneous temperature recovery is feasible.

• The griddle plate is coated with a polished HPCR-INOX layer, which is resistant to abrasion, corrosion, and heat. This feature strengthens the griddle plate and minimizes cleaning time in between meal preparations.

Operation Section 3

Grease Drawer

• Empty out the grease drawer as often as necessary.

• Before operating the appliance, ensure the grease drawer is placed correctly and securely under the grease chute such that the drawer will not slide out or fall.

Caution

Risk of burn from hot equipment, hot grease and steam. Wear personal protective equipment.

Considerations

• Always use a bit of oil on the griddle plate before putting any food on.

• Cooking Food from Frozen

If you cook food from frozen regularly, do not put the frozen food every time on the same position. Otherwise, the plate could deform locally over time.

• Using Proper Cooking Utensils

Use only the spatula provided to turn over food products on the griddle plate. Using any sharp-edged objects such as knife or fork can damage the griddle surface.

• Recovering from Temperature Loss

Temperature loss occurs when cold food is put on the griddle plate. The RTCSmp technology can immediately sense the temperature drop and correct any temperature loss.

When Appliance Is Idle

BEST PRACTICE:

When the induction appliance is not in use, turn off the appliance.

Short Heat-Up Time

To heat up from 20°C to 200°C (68°F to 392°F), a single cook-zone griddle will take:

• INSTINCT Griddle 3.5, approximately 4 ½ minutes

• INSTINCT Griddle 5, approximately 3 minutes

• INSTINCT Griddle 10, approximately 3 minutes

MAINTENANCE SAFETY—CLEANING

Warning

Never use a high-pressure water jet for cleaning or hose down or flood interior or exterior of the equipment with water. Ensure that no liquid can enter into the equipment.

Warning

Allow heated equipment / glass surface to cool down before attempting to clean, service or move.

Warning

Use only a damp cloth to clean the knob or power cord. Disconnect power before cleaning the rotary knob or power cord. Make sure the knob and power cord are dry before reconnecting the unit.

Caution

Do not use caustic cleaners on any part of the equipment. Use mild, non abrasive soaps or detergents, applied with a sponge or soft cloth.

Caution

Ensure to remove all residues of cleaning agents from the cooking surfaces. Use a clean moist cloth to wipe off any such surfaces.

Caution

Using commercial cleaning fluids or chemicals: Read the directions for use and precautionary statements before use. Pay attention to the concentration of cleaner and the length of time the cleaner remains on the food-contact surfaces or equipment surfaces.

Notice

Inspect and Clean Fresh Air Intake Filter

We strongly recommend using air intake filters in all installations to protect the equipment from grease particles. A dirty, blocked air intake filter blocks the air vent and can cause damages to the electronic components. Inspect, clean or replace the air intake filters at least once a week or as often as necessary.

Warning

Inspect Silicone Seal

When the silicone seal is broken, water penetration could cause the appliance to fail, and any malfunction could cause personal harm.

CLEANING THE GRIDDLE PLATE

Caution

Risk of burn from hot equipment, hot grease and steam. Wear personal protective equipment.

Notice

DO NOT USE strong detergents and solvents

such as Ketone, Ester, and alkaline detergents. Depending on the concentration, reaction time and temperature, these chemicals could damage the special coating on the griddle plate.

DO NOT USE steel wool, tough scratching sponges, or knives on the grill plate. Use the cleaning pad provided with the equipment.

DO NOT USE ice cubes because that can cause deformation of the griddle plate.

To clean the griddle plate:

1. Set temperature to 60°C or 140°F.

2. Pour some water onto the plate and let the hot water dissolve the soiling.

3. Use non-abrasive scrubbing pads to scrape the residues into the grease drawer. To avoid burn injuries, scrub and scrape with a spatula on a non-abrasive scrubbing pad.

Troubleshooting

Dangerous Electrical Voltage

DANGER

If any part of the appliance is cracked or broken, turn Off directly the appliance and Immediately Turn Off the appliance. Only if it is possible and safe, disconnect the equipment from main power supply. Do not touch any parts inside the appliance.

Disconnect electric power at the main power disconnect for all equipment being serviced.

Failure to disconnect the power at the main power supply disconnect could result in serious injury or death. The power switch DOES NOT disconnect incoming power.

Contact an authorized service agency for assistance.

DANGER

Do not open the appliance. Maintenance and servicing work other than cleaning as described in this manual must be done by an authorized service personnel.

Warning

Markings and warning labels mounted directly on the equipment must be observed at all times and kept in a fully legible condition.

NOTE: If a problem arises during operation of your induction appliance, follow the Troubleshooting Charts before calling service. Routine adjustments and maintenance procedures are not covered by the warranty.

Common Problems

One or more of the following conditions may affect the function or cause the induction equipment to fail:

• High ambient temperature.

• Inadequate ventilation causing hot air to re-enter through the air intake slots.

• Dirty air intake filter.

Symptoms

• When a malfunction occurs, the appliance may be in one of the following states:

• The appliance switches off immediately.

• The appliance continues to operate in a power reduction mode.

• The appliance continues to operate normally.

• NOTE:

The cooling fan starts when the ambient temperature in the control area exceeds 55°C [130°F].

At heat sink temperature higher than 70°C [160°F], the controller automatically reduces power to keep the appliance in normal operating conditions.
