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 o before removing the pan.
Use proper pan sizes -This appliance is equipped with surface units of
dierent 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 eciency.
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.
Never Leave Surface Elements Unattended at High Heat Settings -
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or 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 o.
Always turn the surface units o 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.

features of your new range
Enhanced convenience. Better cooking. Easy maintenance. Your new electric range has been designed to
bring you these benefits and more.
• True Convection
Your new range has Surround Airvection™, which heating element and a fan system that
circulates the heat evenly in all directions. You get more ecient energy consumption and more
even cooking.
• Steam Quick cleaning
Thanks to Steam Quick™, Samsung’s unique technology for light-duty cleaning jobs, keeping
your oven spick-and-span is a snap — no hassle, no odor, no chemicals. Steam Quick™ cleans
the inside of your range with high-temperature steam in just 20 minutes.
• Bigger is better
With a capacity of 5.9 cubic feet, your new range is equipped with more space than any of its
competitors in the U.S. market. This means greater convenience for you when cooking for the
holidays or when entertaining.
• Induction Cooktop Features
Fast and Ecient - Induction cooking heats faster while using less energy. Induction power
levels are quick to boil and ecient when simmering.
A Cooler Cooktop - A unique feature of the Induction Cooktop Is, whether ON or OFF, the
cooktop surface remains cooler than Radiant ceramic style cooktops. Virtually no wasted heat is
produced since induction elements heat only when covered by a pan.
Easy Clean-ups - The cooler cooktop surface (when compared to a Radiant cooktop) makes
clean-ups easier. Spills resist sticking or burning so they wipe up easier.
Magnetic Detector - The coil sensor automatically detects whether a pan is magnetic and
eliminates any accidental “turn-ons”. No need to worry if you accidently set a plastic or wooden
spatula or spoon down on an induction element.
Pan Size Detection - The pan size recognition sensor automatically detects and adapts the
Cooking Zones to the pan sizes in use for consistent, more even cooking.
More Responsive - Induction cooktops are more responsive than their electric or gas
counterparts because only the pan heats. This type of cooking heats easier and is just as
responsive when reduced to a simmer.
Boil Alert - After water is boiling, the Boil Alert function automatically reduces power to a power
level you have selected and sounds a signal.
CAUTION -The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been
turned OFF. The ceramic glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transfered from the
CAUTION
cookware and burns may occur.

Please note that the power level control pads(+/-,boost,simmer) are disabled once you
activate the Boil alert function. This is not a defect. Please refer to the above text for
instructions on how to change power levels during Boil alert operation.
The length of time it takes for the Boil alert beep to go o after the water reached the
boiling point will vary. Factors that determine the timing of the alert beep include cookware
diameter, amount of water in the cookware, the flatness of the cookware bottom
surface(the flatter, the better) and iron content of cookware.
INDUCTION COOKING
Since the Boil alert only works on the 11” element, we recommend that you use cookware
that is at least 7.5” in surface diameter to enjoy the full benefit of Boil alert.
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 the “Correct
Cookware Type”. (26 page)
• 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 aect 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.
• The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been

CAUTION
turned OFF. The glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transfered 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.

(Better)NE595N0PBSR_AC_DG68-00428A-02_EN.indd 24 31/10/2012 19:43:12
Use Quality Cookware in Good Condition
INCORRECT CORRECT
• Cookware not centered on Cooking Zone
surface.
• Curved or warped pan bottoms or sides. • Flat pan bottom & straight sides.
• Cookware centered correctly on Cooking
Zone surface.
• Pan does not meet the minimum size
required for the Cooking Zone used. See the
“Size of pans” section. (26 page)
• Pan bottom rests on cooktop trim or does
not rest completely on the cooktop surface.
• Heavy handle tilts pan. • Pan is properly balanced.
ANY one of the incorrect conditions listed above may be detected by the sensors located
below the ceramic cooktop surface. If the cookware does not meet one or more of these
conditions, one or more of the Cooking Zones will not heat, and settings will flash in the
aected Cooking Zone display. Correct the problems before attempting to activate the
cooktop.
• Pan size meets or exceeds the
recommended minimum size for the Cooking
Zone.
See the “Size of pans” section. (26 page)
• Pan rests completely on the Cooktop surface.

The Induction element can only be turned on when cookware with a magnetic base is placed on
one of the cooking zones. You can use the cookware identified as suitable below.
Cookware material
Cookware material Suitable
Steel, Enamelled steel Yes
Cast iron Yes
Stainless steel If appropriately labelled by the manufacturer
Aluminium, Copper, Brass No
Glass, Ceramic, Porcelain No
Cookware for induction cooking zone 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 aect operation in any way.
USE THE CORRECT SIZE COOKWARE
• The Induction Cooking Zones require a minimum pan size to be used 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 ½” 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.
INDUCTION COOKING
If a pan made of the correct material is centered properly on any of the active Cooking Zones
but is too small, the aected Cooking Zone display will flash and the pan will not heat.
SIZE OF PANS
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.
Cooking zones Minimum diameter of the bottom of the cookware
1 5 "/ 145 mm
2 7.5 "/ 190 mm
3 5 "/ 145 mm
4 6 "/ 160mm

OPERATING NOISES
You may hear the following operating noises:
• Cracking noises : The cookware you are using is made of two or more dierent materials.
• Whistling : You are using more than two cooking zones and the cookware you are using is
made of two or more dierent materials.
• Humming : You are using high power levels.
• Clicking : Electric switches are operating.
• Hissing, Buzzing : The cooling fan is operating.
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 pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible.
• When buying new 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 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 wish to use a special type of pan, for example, a pressure cooker, a simmering pan, or a
wok, please observe the manufacturer’s instructions.
Energy saving tips
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 the lids firmly on pots and pans so that the
lids cover them completely.
• Switch the cooking zones o before the end of the cooking time to
use the residual heat for keeping foods warm or for thawing.

TEMPERATURE DETECTION
1
2
If for any reason the temperatures on any of the cooking zones were to exceed the safety levels,
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 o depending upon the
termperature of the electronics.
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.
For example, the right side elements No.1 and No.2 are a
cooking zone. If you have one element set at Hi, and turn
on the Power Boost function for the other element, the Power Management function reduces the
power settings of one of the elements as described in the tables below.

• The power settings indicated in the table above are provided only as guidelines for your
reference.
• You will need to adjust the power settings according to specific cookware and foods.
PROTECTING THE COOKTOP SURFACE
Cleaning
• Clean the cooktop before using it for the first time.
• Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep your cooktop looking good and can
prevent damage.
• If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediately clean the spill from the cooking area while it is
hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe the spill with a clean dry
towel.
• Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the cooktop trim for a long period of time.
• Do not use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads, which will scratch the cooktop.
• Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia, or other cleansers not specifically recommended for use
on a glass-ceramic surface.
Preventing marks and scratches
• Do not use glass cookware. It may scratch the cooktop.
• Do not place a trivet or wok ring between the cooktop and the pan. These items can mark or
scratch the cooktop.
• Make sure the cooktop and the pan bottom are clean.
• Do not slide metal pans across the cooktop.
Preventing stains
• Do not use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the cooktop surface. A film will remain, which
may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is heated.
• Continuously cooking on a soiled surface may result in a permanent stain.
Preventing other damage
• Do not allow plastic, sugar, or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the hot cooktop.
Should this happen, clean immediately.
• Do not let a pan boil dry as this will damage the cooktop and the pan.
• Do not use the cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
• Do not cook food directly on the cooktop. Always cook food in the proper cookware.
