Important safety instructions
•If there is a fire in the oven during self-cleaning, turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force the door open. The introduction of fresh air at self-cleaning temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven. Failure to follow these instructions may result in severe burns.
•If the oven is heavily soiled with oil, self-clean the oven before using the oven again. Leaving the oil in place creates a risk of fire.
•Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom with a paper tower or rag before self-cleaning. Self-cleaning the oven when there is heavy soil on the oven bottom requires longer cleaning cycles and produces more smoke.
•Storage in or on the appliance. Do not store flammable materials in the oven or near the surface units. Be sure all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating it. Keep plastics, clothes, and paper away from parts of the appliance that may become hot.
•Wear proper apparel. Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance.
•Use only dry potholders. Placing moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not
let the potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
•Teach children not to play with the controls or any other part of the range.
•For your safety, do not use high-pressure water cleaners or steam jet cleaners to clean any part of the range.

INDUCTION COOKTOP ELEMENTS
• Be sure you know which touch control operates each surface heating unit. Place a pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and turn the unit off before removing the pan.
•Use proper pan sizes - This appliance is equipped with surface units of different sizes. Select pots and pans that have flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface area of the heating element. Using undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in the ignition of clothing. Matching the size of the pot or pan to the burner will also improve efficiency.
•Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface elements - To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the cookware, cookware handles should be positioned so that they are turned inward, and do not extend over adjacent surface units.
•Glazed cookware - Only certain types of glass, glass/ ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
•Never leave surface elements unattended at high heat settings - Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. A pan that has boiled dry may melt.
•Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons, and lids should not be placed on the Induction Cooktop surface since they can get hot.
•When preparing flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.
•Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.
•Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.
•Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high heat settings.
•Be careful when placing spoons or other stirring utensils on the glass cooktop surface when it is in use. They may become hot and could cause burns.

Clean the oven thoroughly before using it for the first time. Then, remove the accessories, set the oven to bake, and then run the oven at 400 °F for 1 hour. There will be a distinctive odor. This is normal.
Ensure your kitchen is well ventilated during this conditioning period.
Energy saving tips
•During cooking, the oven door should remain closed except when you turn food over.
Do not open the door frequently during cooking to maintain the oven temperature and to save energy.
•If cooking time is more than 30 minutes, you can switch the oven off
5-10 minutes before the end of the cooking time to save energy. The residual heat will complete the cooking process.
•To save energy and reduce the time needed for re-heating the oven, plan oven use to avoid turning the oven off between cooking one item and the next.
•Whenever possible, cook more than one item at a time.

Before using the cooktop
Use quality cookware in good condition
The cookware used with the cooktop surface should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface of the Cooking Zone. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. Be sure to follow all the recommendations for using cookware.
Also remember to
•Use cookware made with the correct material for induction cooking. See "Cookware for induction cooking zones" on page 27.
•Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution allowing for more even cooking results.
•The pan size should match the amount of food being prepared.
•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).
•Do not use dirty pans with grease buildup. Always use pans that are easy to clean after cooking.
CAUTION
•The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. The glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.
•DO NOT TOUCH HOT COOKWARE or PANS directly with your hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to protect your hands from burns.
•DO NOT SLIDE cookware across the cooktop surface. Doing so may permanently damage the appearance of the ceramic cooktop.

NOTE
•Cookware appropriate for induction cooking is labelled as suitable by the manufacturer.
•Certain cookware can make noise when being used on induction cooking zones. These noise are not a fault in the appliance and do not affect operation in any way.
Using the correct size cookware
•The Induction Cooking Zones require that you use pots and pans of a minimum size or larger at each location. The inner ring of each Cooking Zone is your guide to the correct minimum pan size. The pan bottom must fully cover the inner ring for proper cooking to occur.
•The thicker outer ring at each Cooking Zone is helpful to determine the maximum pan size. After centering the cookware on the cooktop, make sure the cookware does not extend more than 1/2" beyond the thicker line on the Cooking Zone. The pan must fully contact the glass surface without the bottom of the pan touching the metal cooktop trim.
NOTE
•If a pan made of the correct material is centered properly on any of the active Cooking Zones but is too small, the affected Cooking Zone display will flash and the pan will not heat.
•If cookware is unsuitable or too small or no cookware has been placed on the
cooking zone, 
will be displayed. After 1 minute, the corresponding cooking zone will turn off.
Pot and pan sizes
Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the size of the bottom of the cookware up to a certain limit. However the magnetic part of the bottom of the cookware must have a minimum diameter depending upon the size of the cooking zone.

Operating noises
You may hear the following operational noises:
•Cracking noises : You may hear a cracking noise when you are using cookware made of two or more materials.
•Whistling : A whistling noise occurs when both back burners are in use. This is caused by vibrations. Whistling can vary depending on the weight or material of the cookware or the type of food you are cooking. (Noise can be reduced by using thicker cookware.)
•Humming : You may hear a low humming when you set an element to a high power setting. This sound is generated by energy transmission, and it will disappear when cooktop is turned off.
•Clicking : Electric switches are operating.
•Hissing, Buzzing : You may hear a fan noise during cooktop/oven operation. You may continue to hear it even after the cooktop/oven is turned off.
This is normal. The fan runs to cool down the temperature inside. It will automatically shut off itself after a short period of time.
These noises are normal and do not indicate any defects.
Using suitable induction cookware
Suitability test
Cookware is suitable for induction cooking if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware and the cookware is labelled as suitable by the cookware manufacturer.
Better pans produce better results
•You can recognize good pots and pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible.
•When buying new pots or pans, pay particular attention to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim.
•Do not use pans which have damaged bases with rough edges or burrs. You can scratch the ceramic cooktop permanently if you slide a pot or pan with a damaged base across the surface.
•When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave). They should never be bowed outwards (convex).
•If you want to use a special type of pot or pan, for example, a pressure cooker, a simmering pan, or a wok, please follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Energy saving tips
Right!
Wrong!
You can save valuable energy by observing the following points:
•Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking zone.
•Dirty cooking zones and pan bases increase power consumption.
•When possible, position lids firmly on pots and pans so that the lids cover them completely.
•Switch the cooking zones off before the end of the cooking time and use the residual heat to keep food warm.
Wrong!
28 English
Temperature detection
If for any reason the temperatures on any of the cooking zones exceeds the safety level, then the cooking zone will automatically reduce the heat to a lower power level.
When you have finished using the cooktop, the cooling fan will continue to run until the cooktop’s electronics have cooled down. The cooling fan switches itself on and off depending upon the temperature of the electronics.
NOTE
If the induction cooktop overheats because of abnormal operation, 
will be displayed and the induction cooktop will turn off.
Power management
The cooking zones, which consist of paired cooking elements, are restricted to drawing a certain maximum amount of power.
If you cause a cooking zone to exceed its maximum allowed power by switching on the Power Boost function, the Power
Management function automatically reduces the power setting of the two elements in the cooking zone and reduces the power draw.
Suggested settings for cooking specific foods
The figures in the table below are guidelines. The power settings required for various cooking methods depend on a number of variables, including the quality of the cookware being used and the type and amount of food being cooked.
