As a precaution, persons using a pacemaker should stand back 12”
(30 cm) from an operating unit. Studies have shown that the induction
element will not disrupt a pacemaker.
Keep all credit cards, driver licensee and other items with a magnetic
strip away from an operating unit. The unit’s magnetic field will damage
the information on these strips.
The heating surface is made of a strong, non-porous material.
However, should it crack or break, stop using and immediately unplug
the unit.
Do not leave an empty pan on an operating unit.
Unplug when not in use.
Keep unit and power cord away from open flames, electric burners or
excessive heat.

Clearance Requirements
Sufficient airflow must be allowed around the unit. Blocking the airflow could
cause the unit to overheat.
A minimum of 4” (10 cm) of space round all sides of the Induction Wok
and any surrounding surface.
Under the Induction Wok, a distance equal to the height of the feet of
the Induction Wok.
1.
Place the Induction Wok on a flat, hard stable surface. It must not be
placed on a soft surface that could restrict airflow to the bottom of the
unit.
2. Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet with the matching
nameplate rated voltage.
NOTICE: Using a voltage other than the nameplate rated voltage will
cause damage to the unit. Incorrect voltage, modification
to the power cord or electrical components can damage
unit and will void the warranty.

WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Keep water and other liquids from entering the
inside of the unit. Liquid inside the unit could cause
an electrical shock.
If liquid spills or boils over onto the unit, immediately unplug the unit
and remove cookware. Wipe up any liquid with a padded cloth.
CAUTION
Burn Hazard.
Do not touch cookware, heating surface, food, or
liquid while heating.
Hot food and liquids can burn skin. Induction heating surfaces heat
very rapidly. Use caution when adding food to pre-heated oil, liquid or
other food already in the cookware.
1. Place the included 14” carbon steel wok in the center of the heating
surface.
2. Place oil or food in the wok.
NOTICE: Do not pre-heat empty cookware. Because of the speed
and efficiency of the induction range, cookware can very
quickly overheat and be damaged.
