When you press ON, select a power level and
center a cast iron or steel pan on the cooking
surface, the induction coil circuit detects the
pan and allows the induction coil to be activated.
This high-frequency coil, located just below the
cooking surface, produces a magnetic field that
causes the electrons in the ferrous metal pan to
vibrate, which produces heat.
The pan begins to heat immediately and, in turn,
heats the contents of the pan.
The cooking surface itself does not heat. The only
heat produced is that which is transferred from the
cooking pan, and no heat is generated unless a pan
is placed on the cooking surface.
The power comes on right away, for precise
cooking control. No time is lost waiting for the
cooking unit to heat. And no cool-down time is
required after cooking.
Remember, magnetic induction cooking
requires the use of cookware made of ferrous
FEATURES OF YOUR COOKTOP
1. Cooking Surfaces—one 9-inch unit,
one 8-inch unit and two 6-inch units.
2. Air Vents at rear of cooktop. The cooling air
circulating under the cooking surfaces flows in and
out of the cooktop through these vents.
3. Model and Serial Numbers.
4. Touch Control Panel. Each cooking surface
has its own control. Controls for the two rear units
are located at the rear of the panel. Controls for the
—
two front units are located at the front of the panel.
5. Air Intake Openings on the underside of the
cooktop allow air to circulate under the cooking
surfaces to keep the induction coils cool when
cooking.
NOTE: You’ll hear a slight noise when
the sound of the automatic fans circulating the
cooling air. Fans go off automatically when
cooking units are turned off.
