Safety Precautions
- Read before operating your cooktop
Your induction-cooking unit has been designed for residential use and food preparation, and all of the safety
parameters have been designed accordingly.
The unit incorporates numerous safety devices and controls, a few of which will be mentioned below:
- A number of sensors monitor the temperature of the internal components. If any of these sensors senses
that the component temperature is above the limit, the power output of the unit will automatically be reduced,
allowing the component to cool down. Once this is achieved, the unit will continue to operate normally at the
output level set initially by the operator..
- Each induction element is equipped with a sensor which is continuously monitoring the temperature of the
bottom of the pan to prevent the pan from overheating.
- Each induction element is equipped with a pan sensing device. This device will not allow the element to
turn on unless it senses an inductioncompatible pot or pan on the element covering enough surface area. If
no pot/pan is detected, the digital display will flash indicating that there is no power on the element. Once an
inductioncompatible piece of cookware is sitting properly on the element, the digital display will become
steady, and the cookware will start heating up. Note that a small object as a fork, a spoon, a piece of jewelry,
etc. will not be mistaken for a piece of cookware, and it will not trigger this sensor. Moreover, this device will
distinguish between pots and pans which are and are not suitable for induction cooking.
If a piece of cookware, which is not suitable for induction cooking, is placed on an element, there will be no
power output on the element.
-If an operator leans on a keypad by mistake for more then ten seconds, controls will be disabled and the
power to the section turned off. This occurrence is called ‘long press’ and when it happens, dashes (“-”)
signs will appear on the display. This will also happen if there is an accumulation of liquid on the keypad
area, or if a damp cloth is left sitting on the keypad. The section will become operational again once the spill
or the object/hand is removed, and the element turned back on.
We reserve the right to make any changes to internal components, as well as, to make any (cosmetic)
modifications on the outside in an effort to improve our products.
This unit does not contain any asbestos or asbestos based components.
This unit has been tested and certified under FCC part 15 and CFR Title 47, Part 18 for electromagnetic
interference.
Users with pacemakers or defibrilators must consult with their pacemaker manufacturer or their physician
prior to using this cooktop which incorporates an induction heating source.
If a crack appears in the glass surface, disconnect the unit immediately to avoid
any risk of electric shock. If the unit is connected directly to supply inside a junction box, then
disconnect its breaker, or remove fuses manually.
Do not use your cook-top until the glass top has been replaced.
When cooking, never use aluminum foil, never place products wrapped in aluminum foil or products
deep-frozen in aluminum packs on the cooktop. Aluminum foil could melt and damage the
vitroceramic glass beyond repair.
