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.

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.
• The latest in heat-distribution technology
Other ranges with just one fan tend to make a swirl of heat that fails to cover the whole inside of
the oven. This means uneven heat distribution and uneven cooking. Your new range has Surround
Airvection™, which Samsung enhanced by adding a third heating element and a multi-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.
Flexcook Zone - Lets you use a giant pan or griddle, which does not fit on a conventional sized
heating element, by combining the two left side Induction elements into one.
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
cookware and burns may occur.
