State of California Proposition 65 Warnings:

WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.

WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the cooktop, follow basic precautions, including the following:

■ CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a cooktop – Children climbing on the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.

■Proper Installation – Be sure your cooktop is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

■Never Use Your Cooktop for Warming or Heating the Room.

■Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where cooktop is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the cooktop.

■Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the cooktop.

■User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the cooktop unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

■Storage on Cooktop – Flammable materials should not be stored near surface units.

■Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

■Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

■DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.

■Use Proper Pan Size – This cooktop is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.

■Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

■Glazed Cooking Utensils – Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

■Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units – To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.

■Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop – If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

■Clean Cooktop With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

For units with ventilating hood –

■Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently – Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

■When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

For units with coil elements –

■Make Sure Reflector Pans or Drip Bowls Are in Place – Absence of these pans or bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.

■Protective Liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.

■Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements - Heating elements should never be immersed in water.

COOKTOP CONTROLS - TOUCH-ACTIVATED CONTROLS

Cooktop Controls

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

The electronic touch controls offer a variety of heat settings for optimal cooking results. When you are melting foods such as chocolate or butter, or when proofing bread, the surface cooking area can be set to Power Level 1 for minimal element operation.

For maximum element operation, all cooktop touch controls can be set to High when bringing liquids to a fast and rapid boil. Touch Power Level 9 to immediately reach the highest setting.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the cooktop, do not place any object over the controls. If something is placed over the controls, a gentle “beep” will sound as a reminder to promptly remove it.

After 20 seconds, an “F1E0” error code will display. This is the control board locking itself to avoid damage from an object placed upon it. To use the cooktop again, disconnect from power or reset the circuit breaker. See “Cooktop is displaying F1E0 code” in the “Troubleshooting” section.

Be sure to lock the cooktop using the Control Lock option (see the “Control Lock” section) when cleaning around the controls. If the cooktop is not locked, and an “F1E0” error code appears, reset the circuit breaker.

To Use:

To Turn On the Cooktop:

1.Press POWER

The indicator light above the Power keypad and a dash (“-”) in each surface cooking area will light to indicate that each surface cooking area is ready to be activated. Inactivity for 1 minute after the main power has been turned on will automatically turn off the power to the cooktop.

To Turn On a Surface Cooking Area:

1.Touch the display area (A) for the surface cooking area you want to use.

B.Zone size indicator (flexible dual/triple zones only)

C.Automatic cooking function (simmer, melt, keep warm) indicator

D.W: Keep warm

E.M: Melt

F. S: Simmer

The current power level and indicator light will flash for 10 seconds then remain on.

Touching any other feature or the power slider stops the flashing, and information for the keypad that was touched will be displayed.

When a surface cooking area is left at the “0” power level for 25 seconds, the surface cooking area will automatically turn off and display only the middle dash without the indicator light.

When a surface setting is left at the “0” power level for

1 minute and 25 seconds, and there are no other surface cooking areas turned On, the cooktop will turn Off.

2.Select a heat setting from 1-9 by touching/sliding on the power slider. The heat setting will appear in the surface cooking area display.
