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 manufacturerʼs

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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

SAFETY DURING USE

• Do not place hot cookware on cold cooktop

glass. This could cause glass to break.

• Do not slide pans across the cooktop

surface. They may scratch the cooktop surface.

• Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marking that can affect the ceramicglass cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.)

• Never leave surface units unattended at high

heat settings. Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

• Smother fire or flame in a pan with a lid or cookie

sheet. NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.

(cont.)

SAFETY WHEN CLEANING

• Do not use water on grease fires. Use baking

soda a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher to smother fire or flame.

• Always turn off all controls when cooking is

completed.

• Be sure you know which control pads

operate each surface unit. Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.

• Use only dry potholders.

Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may results in burns form steam. Do not let the pot holder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

• Always switch off the appliance before

cleaning.

• For safety reasons, do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high-pressure

cleaner.

• Clean the cooktop in accordance with the

maintenance and cleaning instructions in this manual.

• Steam cleaner is not to be used for cleaning

of the cooktop.

• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or rough

metal scrapers to clean the cooktop glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

• Clean CookTop With Caution. Do not use

sponges or cloth to wipe spills on a hot cooking area. Use a proper metal scraper.

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY

Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

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

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.

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

cookware can mark and scratch the cooktop surface.

• Refer to the owners manual for proper cleaning and

maintenance of the cooktop.

• Do not use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting

board.

• Never cook directly on the glass. Always use

cookware.

CAUTION

Burn Hazard: The Cooking Zones may appear cool when turned ON and after they have been turned OFF.

DISPOSAL OF OLD APPLIANCES

To protect the environment, it is important that worn-out appliances are disposed of in the correct manner.

• The appliance must not be disposed of with household

rubbish.

• You can obtain information about collection dates or

public refuse disposal sites from your local health council or environmental health office.

CAUTION

Before disposing of old appliances please make

them inoperable so they cannot be a source of danger. To do this, have a qualified person disconnect the appliance from the house circuitry.

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

COOKWARE TIPS

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 manufacturerʼs 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.

COOKWARE TIPS

ENGLISH

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.

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.

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.

• Using a pressure cooker shortens the cooking

times by up to 50%.

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.

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.

Step. 2

When the cooking surface has cooled down, apply a few dabs (about the size of a dime) of a ceramic glass cooktop cleaner in each burner area and work the cleaning cream over the induction cooktop surface with a damp paper towel.

Step. 3

As a final step, clean with clear water and wipe the cooktop surface with a clean, dry paper towel.

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

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Be sure your cooktop is installed and grounded

properly by a qualified installer or service technician.

• This cooktop must be electrically grounded in

accordance with local codes or, in their absence, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70, latest edition in the United States.

WARNING

The electrical power to the cooktop must be shut off while line connections are being made. Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Observe all governing codes and local ordinances.

A 3-wire or 4-wire single-phase 120/240 or



120/208 volt, 60 Hz AC-only electrical supply is required on a separate circuit fused on both sides of the line (time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended). DO NOT fuse neutral. The fuse size must not exceed the circuit rating of the appliance specified on the nameplate.

36" Radiant cooktop can consume up to



10,500W at 240 VAC. A 50 Amp circuit breaker with wire guage #8 AWG must be used. 30" Radiant cooktop can consume up to 7700W at 240 VAC. A 40 Amp circuit breaker with wire guage #8 AWG must be used. NOTE: Wire sizes and connections must conform with the fuse size and rating of the appliance in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70, latest edition, and local codes and ordinances.

PROVIDING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Install the junction box under the cabinet and run 120/240 or 120/208 volt, AC wire from the main circuit panel.

NOTE: DO NOT connect the wire to the circuit panel at this time.

The appliance should be connected to the



fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored or nonmetallic sheathed cable. The flexible armored cable extending from this appliance should be connected directly to the grounded junction box. The junction box should be located as shown on page 21 or 23 with as much slack as possible remaining in the cable between the box and the appliance, so it can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.

A suitable strain relief must be provided to



attach the flexible armored cable to the junction box.

WARNING

An extension cord must not be used with this appliance. Such use may result in a fire, electrical shock, or other personal injury.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

(cont.)

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Connect the flexible armored cable that extends from the surface unit to the junction box using a suitable strain relief at the point the armored cable enters the junction box. Then make the electrical connection as follows.

Electrical ground is required on this appliance.

This appliance is manufactured with a supply wire and a frame connected green or bare copper grounding wire.

NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN:

The armored cable leads supplied with the appliance are UL-listed for connection to larger 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.

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 manufacturerʼs

recommended procedure closely.

WHERE LOCAL CODES PERMIT CONNECTING THE APPLIANCE-GROUNDING CONDUCTOR TO THE NEUTRAL (WHITE) WIRE

Observe all governing codes and local ordinances.
