SAFETY DURING USE
• This appliance may only be used for normal
cooking and frying in the home. It is not
designed for commercial or industrial purposes.
• Do not use the cooktop to heat the room.
• Take care when plugging in electric
appliances near the cooktop. Cords must not
come into contact with the hot surface. This could
cause damage to the cooktop and cable
insulation.
• Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly.
You should supervise cooking when preparing
foods in fat or oil.
• After use, switch off the hob element by its
control and do not rely on the pan detector.
• Always keep the control panels clean and dry.
Do not let liquids or grease remain on the cooktop
controls area. Spilled or burnt-on foods can
activate or deactivate the appliance. Clean the
controls area thoroughly to resume normal
operation of the appliance.
• Never place combustible items on the
cooktop.
• Never keep any combustible items or aerosol
cans in a drawer located under the cooktop.
• Avoid placing metal cooking utensils on the
cooking surface areas. Metal objects can
become hot and cause burns.
• Know which touch keypad controls each
surface of the cooking zones.
• Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts
free of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan
ventilation hoods and grease filters should be
kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate on
hood or filter. Greasy deposits in the fan could
catch fire. Refer to hood manufacturer's
instructions for cleaning.
• Use Proper Pan Sizes. This appliance 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.
• If pan is smaller than element, a portion of the
element will be exposed to direct contact and
could ignite clothing or potholder.
• Do not place any object on or near the control
keypad area in order to prevent accidental
activation of the cooktop controls.
• 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.
• Never leave prepared food on the Cooking
Zones. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled
dry may melt or become damaged.
• Protective liners: Do not use aluminum foil to
line any part of the cooktop. Only use aluminum
foil as recommended after the cooking process, if
used as a cover to be placed over the food. Any
other use of aluminum foil may result in the risk of
electric shock, fire or short circuit.
• Glazed cooking utensils: Only certain types of
glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or
other glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop
service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for cooktop
use.
• Ventilating hood: The ventilating hood above
your cooking surface should be cleaned
frequently, so the grease from cooking vapors
does not accumulate on the hood or filter.
• Do not clean or operate a 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. Do not use
sponges or cloth to wipe spills on a hot cooking
area. Use a proper metal scraper.

![](/html/5f/5f0b/5f0b38657bf83846f80a2a682313e086aaa5416bbc7983cd44d4f30c25fc0f53/bg7.png)
HOW TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE
ENGLISH
• Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the
recommended cooktop cleaning creme to the ceramic
surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or pad. This will
make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking.
The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective
finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
• Do not use the cooktop as a worksurface or storage space.
• Please be careful at the edges when moving pots and
pans.
• Do not operate the cooking zones with empty pots or pans.
• Do not turn on the cooking zones with no pots or pans on
the element.
• 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 glass.
• If sugar or a mixture containing sugar falls onto a hot
cooking zone and melts, remove immediately, while still
hot. If left to cool down, it may damage the surface when
removed.
• Do not slide metal or glass across the cooktop surface.
• Keep meltable objects or materials away from the ceramic
NOTE: There is a risk of burning yourself when the glass
scraper is used on a hot cooking zone!
• Do not use cookware with any dirt build up on the bottom.
• Do not use cookware with rough or uneven bottoms. This
• Refer to the owners manual for proper cleaning and
• Do not use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting
• Never cook directly on the glass. Always use
glass surface, for example, plastic utensils, aluminum foil,
or cooking wraps.
If any materials or foodstuffs melt on the ceramic-glass
surface, these should be cleaned up immediately.

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
in wards(concave). They should never be bowed
outwards(convex).
• If you wish to use a special type of pan (e.g., a
pressure cooker, simmering pan, wok), please
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.
![](/html/5f/5f0b/5f0b38657bf83846f80a2a682313e086aaa5416bbc7983cd44d4f30c25fc0f53/bg9.png)

SELECTING COOKWARE (cont.)
AVOIDING SCRATCHES
It is recommended to always 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.
Sliding any type of cookware over the ceramic
cooktop can affect the overall appearance of the
cooktop. 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 (e.g.,
after washing vegetables) which are dragged with
the pot across the cooking surface.
FOR BEST RESULTS:
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 Cooking Zone to the
amount of food being prepared.
TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY:
• Always position pots and pans before you switch
on the Cooking Zone.
• Dirty cooking zones 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 cooking zones before the end of the
cooking time to use the residual heat for keeping
food warm or for melting purpose.
• The base of the pot should have the same size as
the cooking zone.
• Using a pressure cooker shortens the cooking
times by up to 50%.

CLEANING THE COOKTOP
NORMAL DAILY USE CLEANING
ONLY use Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the glass
cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective or they
might damage the surface with scratches or
permanent staining.
To maintain and protect the surface of your glass
cooktop, follow these steps:
Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it
with Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner. This helps protect
the top and makes cleanup easier.
Daily use of Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner will help
keep the cooktop looking new.
Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops
of Cleaner directly to the cooktop.
Use a paper towel clean the entire cooktop
surface.
Rinse with clear water and use a dry cloth or paper
towel to remove all cleaning residue.
NOTE:
It is very important that you DO NOT heat the cooktop
until it has been cleaned thoroughly.
Step. 2
When the cooking surface has
cooled down apply a few dabs
(about the size of a dime) of
an approved cleaner in each
burner area and work the
cleaning cream over the cooktop surface with a damp
paper towel as if you were cleaning a window.
NOTE: Approved cleaner
Weiman CookTop Cleaning Cream
(www.weiman.com)
Cerama Bryte
(www.ceramabryte.com)
Easy-Off 3 in 1 Glass Top Cleaner Spray
(www.easyoff.us)
Step. 3
As a final step, clean with
clear water and wipe the
cooktop surface with a clean,
dry paper towel.
18
CAUTION
• DO NOT use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning
pads.
- They may damage your glass cooktop surface.
• For your safety please wear an oven mitt
potholder while cleaning the hot cooking
surface.
BURNED-ON RESIDUE
To clean the glass-ceramic
Step. 1
First remove any burnt-on
deposits or spilled food from
your glass-ceramic cooking
surface with a suitable metal
razor scraper (similar to
scraping paint off of your
windowpanes in your home - it will not damage the
decorated cooking surface). Hold the scraper at
approximately a 30˚ angle to the cooktop.
NOTE: Do not use a dull or nicked blade. For your
safety, please wear an oven mitt potholder while using
the metal scraper.
Important: If any sugar or food containing sugar
(preserves, ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge,
candy, syrups, chocolate, etc.), a plastic item or
kitchen foil accidentally melts on the hot surface of
your cooktop, remove the molten material
IMMEDIATELY with a metal razor scraper (it will not
damage the decorated cooking surface) while the
cooking surface is still hot to avoid the risk of
damage to the glass-ceramic surface. For your
safety please wear an oven mitt potholder while
cleaning the hot cooking surface.
METAL MARKS AND SCRATCHES
Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your
cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the
cooktop surface. These marks are removable using
the Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner with the Cleaning
Pad for Ceramic Cooktops.
If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper
are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black
discoloration on the cooktop. This should be
removed immediately before heating again or the
discoloration may be permanent.

gauge household wiring. The insulation of the leads
is rated at temperatures much higher than the
temperature rating of household wiring. The
current-carrying capacity of the conductor wire is
governed by the temperature rating of the
insulation around the wire, rather than the wire
gauge alone.
Observe all governing codes and local
ordinances.
Disconnect the power supply.
At the circuit breaker box, fuse box or junction
box, connect appliance and power supply cable
wires as shown.
WARNING
DO NOT ground to a gas supply pipe. DO
NOT connect to electrical power supply until
appliance is permanently grounded.
Connect the ground wire before turning on
the power.
WARNING
This appliance is equipped with a copper
conductor flexible cable. If connection is
made to aluminum house wiring, use only
special connectors which are approved for
joining copper and aluminum wires in
accordance with the National Electrical Code
and local codes and ordinances. Improper
connection of aluminum house wiring to
copper leads can result in a short circuit or
fire. Follow the connector manufacturer’s
recommended procedure closely.
WARNING
You may not ground the cooktop through the
neutral (white) wire if cooktop is used in a
new branch circuit installation (1996 NEC),
mobile home, recreational vehicle, or where
local codes do not permit grounding to the
neutral (white) wire. When grounding to the
neutral (white) wire is prohibited, you must
use a 4-wire power supply cable. Failure to
heed this warning may result in electrocution
or other serious personal injury.
