Working Principle
Product Introduction
The induction hotplate is mainly composed of an induced heating coil,
hotplate made of ferromagnetic materials and control system. In principle,
current generates a powerful magnetic field via the coil. Large numbers
of vortexes are produced in the way that the magnetic lines in the field
contact the bottom containing iron or stainless steel substances. The
tremendous energy generated by the vortexes can heat the food directly
by converting efficiency heat energy penetrating through the base.

We have designed this hob for private use in home.
With a view to constantly improving our products, we reserve the right to make
any changes to their technical, program or aesthetic features connected with
their technical evolution.
Over- Temperature Protection
A temperature sensor equipped can monitor the temperature inside the hotplate.

automatically.
Detection of Small Articles
When the pot is less than 80 mm in diameter or small articles (knife, fork, forceps,
key, etc.) exist or non-magnetic pots (such as aluminum pot) the buzzer
can gives out an alarm lasting about 1 minute. In this case the user has not put a
proper pot in time, the induction hotplate can enter the standby mode automatically.
Heat Indication
When the hotplate is used for a long time, waste heat remains in the heating zone
in a few minutes. The code “H” appears, warning to be away from the heating zone.

drawing. For the purpose of installation and use, a minimum of 50 mm
space shall be preserved around the hole.
Be sure the thickness of the table surface is at least 30mm. Please
select heat-resistant table material to avoid larger deformation caused
by the heat radiation from the hotplate.

You may have multiple cookware suitable for induction heating.
This induction hotplate is able to identify the correct cookware, and you
can test them according to one of the following methods:
Place the cookware in the heating zone. If the corresponding heating zone
displays a power level, it shows the suitability of the cookware; if “U” flashes, it
shows the cookware does not fit in the induction cooking. Use a magnet to
contact the cookware. If there is attraction between them, it shows the cookware
also fits in the induction cooking.
Requirement for pot material: the bottom contains materials of magnetic
conductivity.
Requirement for shape: flat bottom, more than 12 cm in diameter.

Please use a dedicated
power protection air switch; Never directly wash the induction hotplate with water
so as to avoid dangers.
Indoor use only.

After being used for a long
time, the corresponding
heating zone of the induction
hotplate is till hot. Never touch
the ceramic surface to avoid
burning.
We suggest that you should
periodically check that there
are no object (glass, paper,
etc) that could obstruct the
inlet under your induction
hotplate.
Keep electrical appliance out
of reach from children or
infirmed person. Do not let
them use the appliances
without supervision.
If the supply cord is damaged ,
it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent
or similarly qualified persons in
order to avoid a hazard.
Clean the induction hotplate
on a regular basis to prevent
foreign matters from entering
the fan thus influencing the
normal operation.
Do not put any detergents or
flammable materials in the
equipment installed under the
induction hotplate.
For sealed food such as
canned goods, please do not
heat them before opening their
covers so as to avoid any
dangers of explosion due to
heating expansion.
Never have the induction
hotplate to work without food
inside, otherwise its
operational performance may
be affected and danger may
happen.
Do not place rough or uneven
appliances, which may
damage the ceramic surface.
If the surface is cracked, swith
off the appliance to avoid the
possibility of electric shock.
Metallic objects such as
knives, forks,spoons and lids
