¾AUTOMATIC FUNCTIONS
Your induction hotplate is designed with multiple automatic safety functions:
•Automatic cookware recognition: If you attempt to use an inappropriate cookware utensil you
will see an error message “E1” in the display. Once this error appears in the display the unit
will not operate until an appropriate utensil is used.
•Automatic Timeout: If no function key is pressed or the cookware utensil is not moved within
150 minutes (2½ hours), the hotplate will turn off automatically.
•Cookware overheating protection: If the temperature of the cookware exceeds the maximum
limit, the hotplate will turn off automatically. This function also prevents burning when
roasting/browning foods. To prevent this, reduce the temperature or put a little cold water in
the cookware to maintain the temperature within the operating range.

12
•Hotplate overheating protection: The hotplate is designed with a built-in fan that adjusts the
temperature inside the hotplate. If the air inlet or outlet should be blocked and or clogged, the
hotplate will automatically shut off after 10 audio alarms advising the consumer of the error.
To correct this situation, clear the air inlet and outlet and restart the hotplate once it has
cooled down for 5 minutes.
•Cooktop safety protection: If the cookware is removed during the cooking process, an error
message “E8” will appear in the display and an audio alarm will sound and then shut off
automatically. If after 6 seconds an appropriate cookware utensil has not been placed on the
hotplate, it will shut off automatically and begin its 5 minute cool down procedure.
•Automatic cool down process: After each use and or the temperature meets maximum range
the unit will go into an “Automatic cool down process” for 5 minutes in which the internal fan
will cool the unit down to prevent overheating and extend the life of the unit.
¾COOKWARE TIPS
The physical characteristics of pots and pans influence the performance of any cooking systems.
Therefore, emphasis must be placed on the importance of using proper cookware.
•Cookware made of high-grade steel 18/10, aluminum, glass, and or copper cannot be used with
any type of induction cooking device.
•Only use cookware with a magnetic bottom. (Magnet must remain sticking to the bottom to ensure
an accurate heat transfer between the induction hotplate and your cookware).
•Use cooking vessels with flat bottoms and tight fitting lids to conserve energy and shorten cooking
times.
•Pan size should match the element size. A slightly larger pan covers the entire element and
prevents spillovers from contacting the heat surface and burning in. Using a smaller pan than the
element is a waste of energy.
•To avoid spattering and to maximize efficiency, pan bottoms should be clean and dry before
coming in contact with the elements.
•Wipe spills off the element with a damp cloth as soon as it cools to cut down on clean up time. Be
sure the control is .
To prevent damage use correct cookware, start cooking on the highest temperature and turn control
down to continue cooking.
Never leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot surface unit. The utensil could
overheat and damage the utensils or surface unit.
Always be sure that all control knobs are turned to and the indicator lights are when you are
not cooking.

INSTRUCCIONES DE SEGURIDAD
ADVERTENCIA:
Para reducir el riesgo de incendio, choque eléctrico, o daños cuando use electrodomésticos,
siga estas precauciones:
Lea todas las instrucciones antes de usar su Plancha de Inducción.
PRECAUCION:
No almacene artículos sobre la Plancha de Inducción o en gabinetes encima de esta ya que
estos podrían llamar la atención de los niños.
•Instalación correcta – Asegúrese que la cocina esté correctamente instalada y
conectada a tierra por un técnico calificado.
•Nunca use esta cocina para entibiar o calentar la habitación.
•No deje a los niños solos – Los niños no deben estar solos o desatendidos en el
área donde se usa esta plancha. Nunca se les debe permitir sentarse o pararse en
cualquier parte de esta plancha.
•Usa ropa adecuada – Ropa que le quede muy holgada o que cuelga nunca debe ser
usada mientras use la plancha.
•Servicio de mantenimiento – No repare o reemplace ninguna de las partes de la
plancha a no ser que sea indicado específicamente en este manual. Reparaciones y
mantenimiento deben ser efectuados por un técnico calificado.
•Almacenaje en o sobre la plancha – Materiales inflamables no deben ser
almacenados en o cerca de las plancha.
•No use agua para apagar incendios de grasa – Sofoque el fuego o la llama o use un
extinguidor químico o de espuma.
•Use agarradores de ollas secos solamente – Si usa agarradores de ollas húmedos
podría quemarse con el vapor. No permita que los agarradores de ollas toquen las
plancha. No use una toalla u otro trapo grueso.
•Use el tamaño de olla correcta – Esta cocina está equipada con hornillas de
diferentes tamaños. Utilice ollas cuyos fondos sean lo suficientemente grandes
como para cubrir la hornilla. Usar ollas más pequeñas que las hornilla, expondrá
una porción de la hornilla, lo cual podría ocasionar que su ropa o ud. se queme al
estar en contacto con la hornilla. Al utilizar una olla que mantenga buena relación de
tamaño con la hornilla, también mejorará la eficiencia del uso.
•Nunca deje las hornilla encendidas y desatendidas, especialmente a altas
temperaturas – El hervor causa humo y salpicaduras de grasa las cuales podrían
ocasionar un incendio.
•Ollas apropiadas - Solo algunos tipos de ollas de acero con fondos de hierro,
bandejas para rostizar, ollas de hierro fundido u ollas de acero bañadas en cromo
son apropiadas para cocinas de inducción.
•Las agarraderas de las ollas deben estar alejadas de y no estar directamente sobre
la hornilla – para minimizar quemaduras y/o ignición de materiales inflamables, y
derrame debido al contacto intencional del utensilio, las agarraderas deben estar en
una posición donde no estén hacia fuera de la cocina y tampoco expuestas a las
demás hornillas.
•Nunca cocine sobre una hornilla rota o rajada – Si la hornilla está rajada o rota, las
soluciones de limpieza y salpicaduras podrían penetrar la superficie y ocasionar un
choque eléctrico. Contacte a un técnico calificado inmediatamente.
•Limpie la hornilla y superficies con cautela – Si usa una esponja o trapo mojado para
secar derrames o salpicaduras en una superficie caliente, tenga cuidado de evitar

18
quemaduras por vapor. Algunos limpiadores pueden producir gases o vapores
nocivos si es que entran en contacto con una superficie caliente.
•No caliente recipientes de comida cerrados – la presión creada puede causar que el
recipiente explote y podría ocasionar daño.

cocción. Por tanto, hacemos énfasis en la importancia de usar el equipo de cocción
apropiado.
•Utensilios fabricados de acero de alto grado 18/10, aluminio, vidrio y o cobre no
deben ser utilizados en ningún tipo de cocina de inducción.
•Solamente use ollas que tengan el fondo magnético. La parte imantada debe
mantenerse pegada al fondo para asegurar que el calor se transfiera entre la hornilla
de inducción y la olla).
•Use ollas y sartenes con fondos planos y que tengan tapas que ajusten bien, para
conservar la energía y acortar el tiempo de cocción.
•Use ollas y sartenes que sean acordes al tamaño de la hornilla. Una olla que sea un
poquito más grande que la hornilla, cubrirá todo el calentador y previene que las
salpicaduras caigan en el calentador y se quemen. El usar una olla o sartén más
pequeña que la hornilla es un desperdicio de energía.
•Para evitar salpicadura y para asegurar eficiencia máxima, los fondos de las ollas
deben estar limpios y secos antes de entrar en contacto con el calentador.
•Limpie cualquier derrame o salpicadura que haya caído en el calentador con un
trapo húmedo, lo mas pronto posible, antes que se enfríe, así acortará el tiempo de
limpieza. Asegúrese que la unidad esté apagada (OFF).
Para prevenir daños, use la olla y sartén correctas, empiece la cocción en la
temperatura más alta y luego baje el control de temperatura para continuar la cocción.
Nunca deje una olla o sartén vacía en la hornilla caliente, o una en la que el líquido se
haya evaporado. La olla o sartén podría sobrecalentarse y dañarse o dañar la superficie
de la hornilla.
Asegúrese que todos los botones de control estén apagados (OFF) y que las luces
indicadoras estén apagadas (OFF) cuando no este cocinando.
