PARTS IDENTIFICATION

Your induction hob will not operate without the compatible cookware. Read the following information

in this section carefully to get the maximum efﬁciency from your cooking unit. The rule of thumb for

selecting cookware is, if a magnet sticks to the cookware bottom, the cookware will work on your

duxtop®induction hob.

The bottom surface of the cookware must:

be made of a ferrous magnetic material•

have a ﬂat bottom surface with a minimum bottom diameter of 12cm; The diameter of the•

cookware bottom needs to be large enough to catch the magnetic wave, otherwise the induction

hob may not operate (displays "E0" error code)

touch the induction hob or rise no more than 1” above it•

SUITABLE COOKWARE MATERIAL:

cast iron;•

iron;•

magnetic steel;•

enameled iron,•

stainless steel manufactured with a magnetic bottom•

DO NOT use cookware made out of:

• glass

• ceramic

• copper

• aluminum

• non-magnetic stainless steel (18/10,18/8)

SELECTING THE PROPER COOKWARE

INDUCTION HOB

Setup

Place the unit on a dry, stable, level and non-combustible, non-metallic surface.•

Allow at least 4 inches of space around the whole induction hob unit for proper ventilation.•

Plug the POWER CORD into a 220-240V/ 9.5 amp electrical socket. The POWER INDICATOR•

light will illuminate red.

Before turning the unit on, make sure the ingredients are in the compatible cookware and the•

cookware is centered on the COOKWARE ALIGNMENT GUIDE on the induction hob SURFACE.

Turn the power on by pressing the ON/OFF button. Press the Function button, the Heating•

indicator light will be on, indicating the induction hob is in Power Mode. The COOL AIR FAN will

run and the default power setting of 5.0 will appear in the LED READOUT DISPLAY.

After cooking is completed, press the ON/OFF button to turn off the unit. The COOLING FAN•

will continue running to cool down the unit. A warning message "Hot" will appear on the LED

READOUT DISPLAY, indicating the glass surface is still hot. The word "HOT" will only appear

on the display if the induction hob has reached a pre-programmed internal temperature. The fan

however, will remain on regardless of temperature once the unit is turned off.

If the unit doesn’t operate as intended, see the Troubleshooting Guide in section 6.•

NOTE: Cookware must be on the induction hob before pressing the ON/OFF button.

Operation Modes

This unit offers both Power (Heating) and Temperature (Temp) Modes for convenient and efﬁcient

cooking along with an automatic 180-minute timer. Pressing the Function button will alternate

between Power Mode and Temperature Mode.

Limitations of Temperature Mode:

Like all other induction hob with a glass top, the temperature sensor is located underneath the

glass top. As a result, and that different cookware yields different temperatures, the temperature

readout is only an estimate of the actual cooking temperature. The temperature in your pan may be

different than the setting you have selected. Please test a few times to ﬁnd the proper temperature

setting for your particular cooking task and cookware.

CAUTION: ALWAYS USE A DEDICATED OUTLET. This unit is designed to operate using

a 220-240V electrical outlet having a 9.5 amp capacity. This is a high draw appliance and

should not share an outlet or circuit with any other electrical appliance.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

POWER MODE OPERATION

The Power and Temperature Mode functions

work independently of each other. The power

level selected directly relates to the amount

of wattage, or the BTU/HR equivalent, the

induction hob generates. To increase the

cooking speed, select a higher power level.

The default power setting is 5.0. Press the

INCREASE or DECREASE BUTTONS to adjust

power setting from 1.0–10, total 15 power

levels.

Note: The data are based on tests using factory

standard cookware. Testing with different

cookware will produce different wattage results.

TEMPERATURE MODE OPERATION

When under Power Mode, press Function button

to switch to Temp Mode. The Temp indicator

light will be on. The Temperature Mode should

be used when a speciﬁc cooking temperature

is required. Once the cookware has reached

the selected temperature, the unit will cycle to

maintain the selected cooking temperature.

The default temperature level setting is Level 9,

160°C. Press the INCREASE or DECREASE

BUTTONS to adjust the temperature setting.

Use the Temperature Mode when speciﬁc

temperature must be maintained. This mode

also has 15 settings:

INDUCTION HOB

POWER MODE V.S. TEMPERATURE MODE

If a speciﬁc cooking temperature is not required we suggest using Power Mode instead of

Temperature Mode. To quickly bring a pot of water to boil, use a higher power level setting.

For frying or browning food, Temperature Mode is preferred because the built-in micro processor

monitors and regulates the cookware temperature to the preset temperature. Frying or browning

food using Power Mode may overheat the cookware, and in some cases, extremely high

temperatures may damage your cookware or induction hob. When the cookware is overheated

under Power Mode, the unit will stop working but the display not changed. When the cookware

temperature drops to normal level, the unit will continue to operate as set before. When this

happens it is an indication that Temp Mode may be more suitable for your current cooking task.

NOTE: Use Power Mode to quickly bring water to boil, do not use Temp Mode.

180-MINUTE AUTOMATIC TIMER

The automatic timer may be used with either the Temperature or Power Mode. Press the TIMER

button, “0” will appear in the LED READOUT DISPLAY.

To set the desired cooking time use the INCREASE and DECREASE buttons. Time will increase or

decrease 1 minute each time when one of the buttons is pressed. Press and hold the + or - button

helps to set the desired cooking time quickly.

The timer may be reset at any time during operation by pressing the "TIMER" button again. When

the time has expired, the timer will "beep" and the induction hob will turn off.

LOCK BUTTON

The LOCK button allows you to lock all the other buttons and is a convenience and safety feature.

Press the button for two seconds to lock/ unlock. It is designed to keep the cooking and timer

settings from being accidentally changed once they have been set. The “LOCK” features DOES

NOT lock the ON/OFF button, so the hob can always be shut off if needed.

AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF

Unless the timer has been set, this unit will shut down automatically in 120 minutes if no button or

key is pressed. This is a feature in compliance with safety regulations.

NOTE: The induction hob unit will shut off and "beep", if either:

• the incompatible type of cookware is put on the induction hob or;

• no cookware is placed on the unit.

The induction hob is easy to maintain, however, there are a few things to avoid doing.

Use a moist cloth with a mild liquid detergent to wipe off grease and stains and then let dry. Protect

the induction hob unit from dust by covering it when not in use.

DO NOT:

• clean the induction hob SURFACE with metal scouring pads, abrasives, or solvents

• immerse cord or induction hob unit in water or other liquids

• keep the unit plugged in while cleaning it

• keep the unit plugged in when not in use

• store or clean the unit while still hot

• place objects heavier than 11 kgs on the induction hob SURFACE

• use the unit if HOB SURFACE or POWER CORD is damaged

• keep the induction hob unit on or near other heat sources

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

INDUCTION HOB

If after reviewing the troubleshooting guide the problem is not resolved, do not attempt to

disassemble or repair yourself. Please contact us at [email protected] for assistance.

PROBLEM - After plugging in the power cord, the POWER INDICATOR LIGHT does not illuminate

red and/or the exhaust fan is not running:

The plug may be loose in the electrical outlet or•

The circuit breaker may be inoperative or tripped•

PROBLEM - The POWER INDICATOR LIGHT is lit, but the fan is not running, nor is the cookware

heating up:

Using the incompatible type of cookware (non-magnetic)•

The pan is not centered on the induction hob ALIGNMENT GUIDE•

The induction hob SURFACE may be cracked•

PROBLEM - The induction hob suddenly stops heating during operation and shuts down:

The induction hob unit shuts down due tothe overheating sensor detecting an excessive high•

surface temperature. The cause may be heating empty cookware

A blocked COOL AIRINLET & FAN or WARM AIROUTLET caused induction hob to overheat;•

The unit was unplugged while in use•

The fuse or circuit breaker tripped during use (Do not plug other appliances into the same circuit•

while using the induction hob)

PROBLEM - When the cookware is overheated under Power Mode, the unit stops working but

the display is not changed. When the cookware temperature drops to normal, the

unit continues to operate as set before.

This is a safety feature. This is most likely to happenwhen you are trying to fry orsauté food. These

cooking methods involve high heat and need a regulating temperature within a certain range. If the

temperature is too low, it may not cook your food properly. However if the temperature is too high, it

may burn your food. Once in Temperature Mode you can adjust the temperature to the appropriate

setting that ﬁts your cooking task.

For information about when to use Power Mode or Temperature Mode, please refer to POWER

MODE V.S. TEMPERATURE MODE section in this manual.

INDUCTION HOB

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are induction hob advantages?

To serious cooks, the most important advantage of induction hobs is that you can adjust the

cooking heat instantly and with great precision. The induction hob uses a standard 220-240V

electrical power and plugs into a standard household electrical outlet. Because duxtop®induction

hobs produce up to 2100 watts of power, they are almost 50% more powerful than gas stoves and

heat up to temperature nearly twice as fast as electric cooking elements.

Is induction cooking more efﬁcient than gas?

With an 83% energy efﬁciency, induction cooking is more efﬁcient than both electric or gas.

How safe is induction cooking?

Because there is no open ﬂame or hot cooking element, the induction process produces heat only

within the cookware. The induction hob surface remains cool except for the heat transferred from

the bottom of the cookware to the glass surface (immediately below the cookware).

What are the electrical power requirements?

Single burner induction units designed for household use in the market are all capable of

operating efﬁciently on a standard 220-240V outlet. It is strongly recommended to dedicate an

outlet for each individual unit when being used since each unit will draw about 9.5 amps, the

amperage of most common household electrical outlets.

What type of cookware can I use?

The general rule of thumb is, if a magnet sticks to it, it will work with the duxtop®induction hob.

Cookware made from cast iron, iron, enameled steel or iron, or magnetic stainless steel work very

well. duxtop®offers a large selection of Whole-clad Tri-ply Induction Ready Premium Cookware™.

How is induction cooking different than electric cooking?

Induction units place the electrical energy directly into the cookware without using energy towards

a heating element. Regular electric cooking elements use energy to heat the heating element

and then through conduction, the heat is transferred to the cooking pan.

Induction cooking heating is very fast and responsive to temperature control changes making

them even faster and more efﬁcient than gas cooking. Resistance-type heating elements are very

inefﬁcient and are slow to respond.

Is it easy to use?

The rapid heating of the cookware makes all kinds of cooking fast and easy, especially when

warming, sautéing, frying, and boiling pasta. Cleaning a duxtop®induction hob unit is easy. With

no open ﬂame or heating element, food does not burn-on so you can just wipe the induction hob

surface clean with a damp towel.
