HOW DOES YOUR INDUCTION WORK?
A high frequency (20-35KHz) induction coil underneath the ceramic top plate heats the cooking utensil
by magnetic friction. The heat is produced directly within the pan and is controlled by an electronic
circuit which oers superior performance and functions.
During cooking, no energy is lost between the hob and the food. When the unit is switched o, or the
pan is removed, cooking and heating stops immediately.
PRECAUTION BEFORE USING YOUR INDUCTION HOB
1. The ceramic top is of strong & non-porous properties. In case of breakage, even if it’s only slightly
cracked, disconnect the unit from the main power supply and contact the after sales service dealer.
2. The unit is equipped with a ‘SMALL OBJECT DETECTOR’ It’s recommended not to place metal
kitchen utensils, pan lids, knives, or other such objects on the heating zone. If the unit is turned on,
there is a risk that the utensils may become hot.
3. DO NOT place credit cards, cassettes or other magnetic sensitive objects on the ceramic top.
4. Scientic tests have shown that the induction presents no danger whatsoever for persons using a
pacemaker. It is recommended that a distance of 60cm be maintained whilst using the induction unit.
5. To prevent from over heating, DO NOT place aluminum-foil on the ceramic top.
6. Put the unit on a at and even surface, but allow a space from the wall or other objects of at least
5-10cm to allow for proper ventilation.
7. Immediate clean-up is recommended when any spillage occurs.
USE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS – IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
1. DO NOT block the air-intake panel, as this may overheat the unit.
2. We recommend pans to be in the range of 12~26cm in diameter. Please refer to the next page for a
list of suitable and unsuitable pans.
3. DO NOT touch the hot surface of the ceramic plate. NOTE: The induction unit itself does not
produce any live heat during cooking, however, the heat reected from the pan will leave the

3
surface of the ceramic hot!
4. DO NOT cook with empty pots or pans. Heating an empty pan will automatically activate the
overheating protection device and the unit will shut o.
5. Place the induction unit on a at & even surface and at least 10cm away from the wall and other
objects for proper ventilation.
6. DO NOT place any objects or tools in the air-intake panel. Doing so may cause electrical shock.
7. To protect against electrical shock, DO NOT immerse the unit, the cord or the plug in or near water
or other liquids.
8. Close supervision is necessary when the induction unit is used or near children.
9. DO NOT operate the induction unit if it has been damaged in any manner or if the unit malfunctions.
Return the unit to the nearest authorized service facility for examination or repair.
10. The use of any accessories or parts not recommended by the manufacturer may cause injuries.
11. Keep the power cord away from heat.
12. DO NOT place the induction unit in, on, or near open ames, electric burners, heated ovens or
other high temperature surroundings.
13. DO NOT heat any sealed cans on the induction unit. A heated can may explode.
14. DO NOT move the induction unit while cooking or when the pan is hot.
15. After the induction unit has cooled down, unplug the cord and clean as follows, CERAMIC PLATE:
wipe with damp cloth or use a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. BODY: wipe the control panel
with soft cloth or use a mild cleaner.
16. DO NOT use induction unit for other than intended use.
17. Unplug when not in use.
18. When storing, DO NOT place any objects on top of the induction unit.
19. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Note: Save these instructions
SAFETY DEVICES
Automatic Safety Shut-O,
If the induction unit is left on for more than 60 seconds without a pan or with an incompatible pan, the
unit will automatically shut o.
Material Compatibility Detector
If the pan’s material or it’s dimensions are not suitable for the induction unit, the power indicator light
will not light.
Overtime Detector
If the pan is left on the induction range for more than 2 hours, or if the user does not operate any
functions for more than 2 hours, the range will automatically shut o.
Small Object Detector
The induction unit will not recognize any objects or utensils smaller than 5cm in diameter. For best
results, use pans that are between 12cm and 26cm in diameter.
Overheating Protection Device,
If the temperature of the pan reaches 250°C, the unit will shut o automatically, there will be a short
warning sound.

OPERATION INSTRUCTION
1. Ensure that the electrical supply matches with the electrical specications on the dataplate located
on the under side of the unit.
2. Place suitable pan on the center of the ceramic top.
3. Press power ON/OFF key, heating lamp will light and LED power level will be displayed.
4. I f the heating indictor light is on, then the pan is heating.
5. Select mode “HEAT” or “HOLD” by pressing the required key, the indicating lamp will light.
Heat
• Press heat function key, heat indicator lamp will light.
• Set heating level by rotating the power control knob 1~9. LED display will show the level settings.
Hold
• Press hold function key, hold indicator will light.
• Set required temperature by pushing HOLD key 60°C, 80°C, 140°C, 180°C, 220°C and 60°C. The
holding indication light will ash until the required temperature is reached.
• When using the ‘HOLD’ mode the rotating power control knob will not function.
• To change from ‘HOLD’ to ‘HEAT’ press the heat function key and the power control knob will be
activated.
Note
When the unit has been turned “ON” the heating indicating light will be on. This indicates that the pan
is heating.
If the indicating light is OFF and there is a beeping noise this indicates that
• the pan is not suitable
• there is no pan on the ceramic top
The unit is equipped with an “OVERHEATING PROTECTION DEVICE”. When the temperature
of the ceramic top exceeds 230°C, the power will cut out. The heating Indication light will ash
indicating that the over heating function is on. Once the temperature reduces, the power will
automatically re-start.
Cause of Overheating
If an empty pan is placed on the ceramic top and the power level is at maximum the ceramic surface
will reach a high temperature very quickly. Once the pan is removed from the unit or food/ liquid is
added to the pan, the surface temperature of the ceramic top wil reduce very rapidly.
