hold the ‘+’ and ‘-‘ buttons simultaneously for several seconds, until the display switches
over.
Once a number appears in the display, the unit will begin to heat if a pan is in place, or will
flash slowly if no pan is in place. The induction coil is not operating if the display is flashing.
If the display flashes with a pan on the cook top, it is either not an induction ready pan or it
is smaller than about 4 ¾” (120mm), and cannot be detected.
Touch the power button again to turn the unit off. The fan will continue to run for a short
time to cool the unit, and then will shut off.
The GL650UC is designed to keep already heated food warm. Food product must be at
proper temperature in the pan prior to being place on the induction warmer. Food must be
maintained at proper temperature using proper procedures in accordance with applicable
health department codes and standards. A cover on the induction pan or suitable heat
lamps above the pan are generally necessary.
If you elect to use the temperature settings on the induction warmer, these setting are an
approximation only. The temperature of the food itself must be taken to make sure food is
being held at its proper temperature. Any adjustment on the control panel should be made
accordingly.
COOKWARE
Your induction cooker operates using induction ready cookware. There are two methods to
test if your cookware is induction ready. First, if a magnet sticks to the bottom, it is
induction ready. Second, set the unit to a power level/temperature setting, place the pan
on the surface, and the display remains on steadily without blinking, your cookware is
induction ready. Cookware with a thick flat base is more desirable, as it will heat better.
There is a wide variety of induction ready cookware available. Different quality cookware
will have different cooking profiles at the same setting. A poor quality pot set on full power
will take much longer to boil water than a high quality pot, even if set at a lower
temperature. Remember, the unit does not heat up; the induction coil causes an excitation
in the molecules of the cookware itself, achieving much faster heating, and allowing much
quicker changes. Recommended cookware should generally be 3, 5 or 7 ply throughout
the bottom and body of the pan. Pans must be ferromagnetic. Cast iron cookware is
generally suitable for induction cooking. Some single ply steel wok pans are suitable for
induction wok cookers.
Care and maintenance
•
Avoid knocks and impacts against glass remote top. The glass is very strong, but it is
not unbreakable.
•
Avoid friction of cookware on the cook top, which could scratch glass and wear of
screen printing on the surface.
