Induction
Cooting
How it
work
When you touch ON, select a
power level and center a cast iron
or steel pan on the cooking
surface, the induction coil circuit
detects the pan and allows the
induction coil to be activated.
This high-frequency coil,
located
just below the cooking surface,
generates a magnetic
field
that causes
the molecules of ferrous metal in
the pan to vibrate. Molecular
friction produces heat.
The pan begins to heat immediately
and, in turn, heats the contents.
The cooking unit itself does not
heat.
The only heat in the cooking
unit is that which is transferred
from the cooking pan, and no heat
is generated unless a pan is placed
on the cooking area.
Power response is virtually
instantaneous,
for precise cooking
control. No time is lost waiting for
the cooking unit to heat. And no
cool-down time is required after
cooking.
Remember, magnetic induction
cooking requires the use of
cookware made of ferrous
metils-metals
to which magnets
will stick, metals such as iron or
steel.

Electronic Touch Control Panel.
Each cooking surface has its own
control. Controls for the two left

Touch Control Panel Features.
3. Air Intake Openings on the
underside of the cooktop allow
air to circulate under the cooking
surfaces to keep the induction
coils cool when cooking.
Note: You’ll hear a slight noise
when cooking—the sound of the
automatic fans circulating the cooling
air. Fans go off automatically when
cooking units are turned off.
4. Air Vents at rear of
cooktop.
If your cooktop is equipped for
downdraft exhaust venting, smoke
and cooking odors from the
cooktop
are drawn down and out of the
kitchen through these vents.
Otherwise, cooling air circulating
under the cooking surfaces flows
up and out of the
cooktop
through
these vents.
5. Downdraft Venting Control
Area
contains control knob for
downdraft venting system on
cooktops
