WARNING
• DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE —children
should not be left alone or unattended in
the area where appliance is in use.
• Induction elements present no danger. However, for persons
using a pacemaker, please keep 12 inches from the unit while it
is in operation.
IMPORTANT
• The vitro-ceramic top of the unit is made from a strong,
non-porous material. In case of breaking or cracking, disconnect
the plug from the power supply and discontinue use.
• Do not attempt to operate the induction burner during a
power failure.
• Do not place spoons, knives, kitchen utensils, or other small
objects on the cooking surface while the unit is operating as

• Do not heat unopened food containers - buildup of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in an
injury.
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely.
• Keep all magnetic strips, such as credit cards, or driver’s
licenses away from the unit. The magnetic field produced by
the unit will damage the information on the security strip.
Persons with a pacemaker or similar
medical device should exercise caution using or standing
near an induction unit while it is in operation, as the
electromagnetic field may affect the working of the
pacemaker or similar medical device. It would be
advisable to consult your Doctor or the pacemaker or
similar medical device manufacturer about your
particular situation.
WARNING
• A short power-supply cord (or detachable power
supply cord) should be used to reduce the risk
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over
a longer cord.
This appliance has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 18 of
the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This unit generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this unit does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the unit off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Longer detachable power supply cords or extension
cord are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.
• If a longer detachable power supply cord or extension
cord is used:
a. The marked electrical rating of the cord set
or extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance; and
b. The cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension
cord should be grounding type 3-wire cord.
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antennae.
• Increase the distance between the unit and receiver.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR INDUCTION BURNER
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR INDUCTION BURNER
• Unplug units prior to cleaning the induction burner.
• Do not use any abrasive soap agent.
• Use proper pan si e. Select cookware with flat
bottoms large enough to cover the surface
unit heating element.
• Clean the burner regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention
to the area around the surface element. Do not allow
grease to accumulate.
• Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface elements as
there is risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials,
and spillage due to unintentional contact with the
cooking utensils.
• Clean burner with caution. If damp cloth is used to wipe
spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn.
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
• Never leave surface elements unattended at high
heat settings — Boil overs cause smoking and greasy
spillover that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry
may melt.
• Wipe off the casing of the operating panel with a soft cloth or a
mild detergent.
• Do not immerse the induction burner, its cable or the
plug into the water or other liquids.
• Make sure to properly clean the unit before storing it in a cool,
dry place.
• Do not use any ammable, acid or alkaline material near
the induction burner, as this may reduce the service life
of the induction burner and pose a re risk when the
induction burner is in operation.
• To keep your induction burner looking new,
make sure that the bottom of your cookware does not
scrape the glass surface, although a scratched
surface will not impair the use of the unit.
