[. . . ] Warnings and tips are marked with the following symbols: Safety warning Tips and hints 3 1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1 - Proper Installation - Be sure your appliance is properly grounded and installed by a qualified technician. 3 - Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance. 4 - Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-fitting garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while using the appliance. [. . . ] We suggest that you should periodically check that there are no objects (dust, paper, etc. ) which could obstruct the air intake under your induction cooktop. Although the induction-cooktop heat rejection is minimal and the unit does not create any fumes in operation, such a unit must be installed underneath a properly sized ventilation hood for exhausting any smells, vapor and smoke created by cooking foods. Also, a proper downdraft system can be used for ventilation. The unit must be installed so that it can be pulled out without difficulty from the cut-out for servicing or cleaning. To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. Never glue or jam the unit inside its cut-out. 9 2. 4 BEFORE FIRST USE Your induction-cooking unit has been designed for residential use and food preparation, and all of the safety parameters have been listed accordingly. · A number of sensors monitor the temperature of the internal components. If any of these sensors detect 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 burner is equipped with a sensor which is continuously monitoring the temperature of the bottom of the pan to prevent the pan from overheating. This device will not allow the heating element to turn on unless it senses cookware on the burner covering enough surface area. The indication that the burner is not running is the flashing of the digital display. Once the pan is put properly on the burner, the digital display will become steady. 12 4. 3 COOKWARE FOR YOUR INDUCTION UNIT Induced current can be created only in materials which have magnetic properties. Thus, cookware for use with an induction unit must be made from a ferromagnetic material or have inserts with magnetic properties. Your household may already have cookware suitable for induction cooking, and you can test any cookware with an induction element. To perform a cookware test: - Turn an element on and adjust power to any level. If the piece being tested is suitable for induction cooking, the display will become steady. However, if it keeps flashing, the cookware cannot be used on your induction unit. - If the cookware is empty, remove it from the burner immediately after you have done the test and turn the element OFF. Another simple test to determine if a piece of cookware can be used on an induction cooktop is the `magnet test'. Cookware compatible with induction units are: · Cookware made of enamel coated steel with or without a non-stick coating. · Stainless steel pots and pans designed for induction cookware. Note: Stainless steel used for cookware is nonmagnetic, in most cases, and unsuitable for induction cooking, but most manufacturers make such cookware in layers for better heat distribution, and a good number of such pots and pans can be used with induction. [. . . ] Note that such cleaner may leave stains on stainless steel frame, protect exposed stainless steel. Apply special glass cleaner on the surface, preferably one which contains silicone (protective action). CLEANING AGENTS Cleaning sponges & mild detergents Cleaning sponges, mild detergents and cleaning agents for glass Rings and traces of lime scale. Cleaning cloth, white vinegar, or diluted de-liming agent. Nonabrasive Paste Ordinary Sponge or Special Sponge for Delicate Items Powder Abrasive-backed sponge 16 6 TROUBLESHOOTING If you have questions about whether your cooktop surface is working correctly, check the following points. PROBLEM When you switch the unit on, the supply-line breaker trips off or the supply-line fuse burns. When you switch the unit on, only one side of the cooktop surface works. [. . . ]
