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 dierent 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 eciency.

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.

Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can lead to damage and improper operation of the range.

Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board. Do not operate the cooktop when there is no cookware.

OVEN

DO NOT TOUCH THE HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN. Heating elements may be hot even though

they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other ﬂammable materials contact the heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sucient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors.

Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and result in injury.

Do not use the oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch on ﬁre.

Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items stored in an oven can ignite.

Use care when opening the door. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove food from or put food into the oven.

Protective liners. Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or ﬁre.

Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located above the right rear surface unit. This area could become hot during oven use. Never block this vent or place plastic or heat-sensitive items on it.

Placement of oven racks. Always place oven racks in the desired location while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while the oven is hot, use potholders. Do not let the potholders come in contact with the hot heating element in the oven.

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 ecient 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.

• Twin Cooking

This oven features the unique twin cooking system. It allows you to prepare two dierent meals at the same time using two dierent temperatures in the upper and lower compartment. Or you can cook either in the upper or lower compartment, which saves time and energy.

• Induction Cooktop Features

Fast and Ecient - Induction cooking heats faster while using less energy. Induction power levels are quick to boil and ecient 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

CAUTION

cookware and burns may occur.

• Eective temperature range of the griddle: Pancakes - 212~230 °F, Others - 275~320 °F

• To cook pancakes, we recommend you use a single burner in either the front or rear.

• We also recommend you use a griddle made of stainless steel rather than cast iron. (Note that the griddle made of cast iron may exceed the preheat time and cooking conditions suggested in “Using the Griddle”.)

• The preheat time and cooking conditions vary depending on the pan, which may

CAUTION

produce dierent cooking results.

• If you cook at a power level of 6 or greater, the cooking temperature will become too high, causing the griddle to smoke or your food to burn.

• Avoid cooking extremely greasy foods. Grease spill over can occur.

• Do not overheat the griddle. This can damage the non ﬁxed coating.

INDUCTION COOKING

Correct Pan Size and Pan Location for the Flexcook Zone

INCORRECT CORRECT

• Small size pan is located in center of Flexcook zone.

• Unsuitable size for Flexcook zone.

See the “Size of Pans” section. (28 page)

• 2 suitably sized pans for the Flexcook zone.

• Giant pan or Griddle.

induction cooking _24

(IB_Premium)NE599N1PBSR_AC_DG68-00426A_EN.indd 24 2012-04-25 �� 7:37:09

INCORRECT CORRECT

• Unsuitable size for Flexcook zone.

See the “Size of Pans” section. (28 page)

• Two examples of 1 suitably sized pan in the correct location in the Flexcook zone.

BOIL ALERT CONTROL (ONLY USE THE LARGEST BURNER)

The Boil Alert function automatically reduces power to a power level you have selected and sounds a signal.

Touch the On/O control pad of the largest Burner (Right Front).

2. Touch the Boil Alert pad. The digital display will show .

3. Touch the +/- pads to select the power level you want the

element set to after the water boils. The range will automatically reduce the burner’s power level to this level after the water boils and sound a signal (6 times).

• If you want to adjust the power level while Boil Alert is in operation,

touch the Boil Alert pad again and set the power level.

• Required amount of water : 2 ~ 12 cups (500 ml ~ 3000 ml)

Please note that the power level control pads (+/-, Boost, Simmer) become disabled once you enter into Boil Alert operation. Please refer to the above text for instructions on how to change power levels.

The length of time it takes for the Boil Alert beep to go o from full boil mode will vary. Factors that determine beep activation timing are cookware diameter, water amount in the cookware, the ﬂatness of the cookware bottom surface (the ﬂatter, the better) and iron content of cookware.

Since the Boil Alert only works on the 11” element, we recommend you use cookware that is at least 7.5” in surface diameter to experience 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” (28 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 aect 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.

INDUCTION COOKING

• DO NOT SLIDE cookware across the cooktop surface. Doing so may

CAUTION

permanently damage the appearance of the ceramic cooktop.

induction cooking _26

(IB_Premium)NE599N1PBSR_AC_DG68-00426A_EN.indd 26 2012-04-25 �� 7:37:11

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.

• Pan does not meet the minimum size required for the Cooking Zone used. See the “Size of pans” section. (28 page)

• Pan bottom rests on cooktop trim or does not rest completely on the cooktop surface.

• Cookware centered correctly on Cooking Zone surface.

• Pan size meets or exceeds the recommended minimum size for the Cooking Zone. See the “Size of pans” section. (28 page)

• Pan rests 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 aected Cooking Zone display. Correct the problems before attempting to activate the cooktop.

COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION COOKING ZONES

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 aect 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 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.

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 aected 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 6 "/ 160 mm 4 Size to occupy more than 60% of the Flexcook zone

OPERATING NOISES

You may hear the following operating noises:

• Cracking noises : The cookware you are using is made of two or more di erent materials.

• Whistling : You are using more than two cooking zones and the cookware you are using is made of two or more di erent 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 ﬂ at 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 ﬁ rmly 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.

Right!
