CARE AND CLEANING
1. The longer you cook with a spill or food residue on the cooking surface, the
harder it will be to remove. Wait until unit is completely cool be ore cleaning
(except for the situation in item 2 below.) Some cleaners will produce harmful
fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet sponges or cloths used to wipe spills
from a hot cooking surface can cause steam burns.
2. In case any plastic objects, aluminum foil, sugary mixtures,
etc. accidentally melt or spill on the glass ceramic cooking
surface, immediately turn the range off and remove cookware.
Let the surface cool slightly. While still quite warm, use a
hot mitt and a razor blade scraper held at a 30° angle to care-
ully scrape melted / spilled material away from the warm heating zone.
Allow cooking surface to cool completely before continuing with cleanup.
3. Unplug the range before cleaning. Never use oven sprays, stain removers,
ammonia, bleach, abrasive scouring agents, steel wool, or treated nylon mesh
pads for cleaning. For maintaining the glass ceramic cooking surface, use one
of the special Ceramic Glass Cooktop cleaning /polishing/conditioning cremes
available on the market. (Do not use cleaners made for white cooktops; they will
damage your unit.) Normal food residues can be removed with a soft, damp cloth
or untreated nylon mesh pad and some mild dishwashing liquid or baking soda.
Scrub gently, rinse with a damp cloth, and wipe dry.
4. DO NOT SUBMERGE THE RANGE OR LET THE HEAT CONTROL OR PLUG
COME IN CONTACT WITH WATER OR OTHER LIQUID! Make sure that no
liquids or steam seep into the underside of the range housing.
5. Avoid scratches on the glass ceramic cooking surface caused by pointed or
sharp objects. Protect the glass ceramic plate against breakage by falling objects.
6. Any repair or maintenance required for this product other than normal household
care and cleaning, should be performed by our Factory or Joicey Food Service
in Ontario, Canada.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before using for the first time, become familiar with the Glass Ceramic Range
features, (Figure A):
2. This range is equipped with an automatic cooking system, i.e. it heats up to
each setting quickly with its maximum power and then maintains the temperature.
3. The Glass Ceramic Cooking Surface has a power saving two circle heating
zone, so you can match heating zone diameter to your pot/pan diameter for
maximum energy efficiency.
l For activating the large heating zone ( 8.25diameter), turn the Temperature
Control Knob clockwise up to the symbol and then counterclockwise
back to the desired heat level.
l For changing back to the small heating zone (5.5 diameter), turn the
temperature Control Knob counterclockwise to the OFF position (O) and
then clockwise back to the desired heat level 1 12.
l Use the settings as follows:
1 5 for warming up and keeping warm
4 9 for moderate temperature cooking
8 12 for high temperature cooking
4. The Power On Indicator Light on the lower right of the glass ceramic cooking
surface is lit up when the appliance is switched on.
5. The Residual Heat Indicator Light on the lower left of the glass ceramic cooking
surface warns you when the cooking surface is still hot after the unit is turned off.
It also makes you aware of the possibility of making use of the remaining residual heat.
6. Only use pots or pans with a perfect, even bottom and an appropriate diameter.
If the pot bottom is uneven or too small, energy will be wasted. Do not use cooking
containers consisting of synthetic material, inferior enamel, china, or aluminum foil
in any form. If an aluminum pot or pan is used, it must not be allowed to boil dry,
or the pan will warp or melt and the range cooking surface will be permanently
damaged. Always use a pot, pan, or casserole dish for its intended purpose. Only
certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware
are suitable for cooktop use without breaking due to the sudden change in temp
erature. Check the cookware manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop use.
7. The glass ceramic cooking surface and the pot bottom must always be clean
and dry. Rough bottomed cookware can scratch the ranges heating surface.
8. Cover cookware while in use whenever possible to avoid spatters on cooktop.
9. Do not place food directly on the cooking surface. Always use cookware.
10.During use the surfaces will get hot. Please use caution when handling the
appliance to avoid the risk of getting burned! Keep the power cord away from the
cooking plate, as well as the power cords of other adjacent electrical appliances.
In case of signs of damage to the appliance, the power cord or the sealing, or if
the glass plate is broken, immediately unplug the appliance.

or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or
table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

plug MUST be connected to a 3 pronged outlet. Before connecting power, make sure
the outlets voltage and frequency correspond to the data plate on the range (120
volts/60hz.) 23
