General Operating Instructions
How it Works…
The induction cooking process heats a cooking vessel through the use of magnetic induction,
instead of by thermal
conduction from an open flame or an electrical heating element. Because
inductive heating directly heats the vessel, rapid increases in temperature can be achieved and
maintained.
Induction Compatible Cookware
In order for the process to work, a cooking vessel must be made of, or contain, a magnetic metal
such as cast iron or some stainless steels. You will need to use an induction compatible pot, such
as the 10” Skillet included. A great test is the magnetic test. Take any magnet and see if it is
attracted to the base of your pot. Some pots are advertised as induction capable.
Note: Induction compatible cookware with base diameters of 4.75”-10.25”
will provide optimal results with the Induction Cooktop.
Preparing for Use
• Place the appliance on a stable, level, horizontal and heat-resistant surface.
• Plug the AC Power Cord into a suitable electrical outlet.
• Place an induction compatible pot with ingredients on the Induction Cooktop’s cooking
surface.
• Using the instructions on pages 6-7, set your Induction Cooktop
to suit your recipe.
Warning
•
NEVER place empty pot lids or other utensils on the cooking surface.
An empty pot or lid could activate the Unit’s overheating protection device.
• NEVER cover the air vents in the back or bottom.
• NEVER drag, slide or shake the pot on cooktop’s surface.
Though it is built for long-lasting durability, rough treatment could damage the smooth
surface.
