Induction Cooktop Features
A COOLER COOKTOP - A unique feature of the Induction Cooktop is whether turned ON or OFF, the cooktop surface
remains cooler than standard ceramic cooktops.
The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. But the
glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.
MAGNETIC DETECTOR - The coil sensor automatically detects if a pan is magnetic; if it is not, the Cooking Zone will not
activate.
PAN SIZE DETECTION - The pan detection sensor automatically adapts the size of Cooking Zones to the pan sizes in
use.
EFFICIENT - Induction cooking heats faster while using less energy. Induction power boils more quickly and simmers
more evenly.

OFF LED will glow (Fig. 8). To turn OFF a Cooking Zone, touch the Cooking Zone ON/OFF
key pad once. The Cooking Zone LED will turn OFF (Fig. 7).
POWER LEVEL SETTINGS - The Cooking Zones have separate Power Level Alpha-Numeric displays.
Once active, the Cooking Zones will provide 22 Power Levels to choose from. These include L0(Fig. 11),
2, 3, _, 5, 6, 7, B, 9; as well as precise .2 increment Cooking Zone Power Levels between/._ and 3 (Fig.
9); and half-increment power levels between 3 and "7(Fig. 12). The highest setting • Por "Power Boost"
provides 125% power for 10 minutes (See Fig. 10). Each key pad touch (or just holding down the Power
Level key pad) will scroll through all the available power levels for any Cooking Zone quickly.
RESIDUAL HEAT - Once any Cooking Zone has been used for cooking and turned OFF, and if the
cooktop surface temperature on any of the Cooking Zones is still too HOT, HE (See Fig. 13) will appear in
the Alpha-Numeric display for the affected Cooking Zone. The HE will continue to display if the tempera-
ture is still too HOT.
The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been
turned OFF. But the glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and
burns may occur if surface is touched.
KEEP WARM -Use the WARM key pad to activate the Warm setting for any of the Cooking Zones. The
ON/OFF key pad for the desired Cooking Zone must be activated first, then touch the WARM key pad
located in the Cooktop Main Control area once to set. LH (low heat) should appear in the corresponding
Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric display (See Fig. 14).
PAN DETECTION - All five Cooking Zones will provide a Pan Detection message. If a Cooking Zone is
turned ON and no pan is detected, or the pan has been moved or is not centered correctly, or is not made
of magnetic material, power level will flash in the affected Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric display.

Before Using the Cooktop
USE THE CORRECT COOKWARE TYPE - The magnetic Cooking Zone sensors
located below the cooktop surface require the use of cookware made with magnetic
material in order to start the heating process on any of the Cooking Zones.
When purchasing pans, look for cookware specifically identified by the manufacturer
for use with Induction cooktops. If you are not sure, use a magnet to test whether the
cookware type will work. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, the
material type is correct for Induction cooking (See Fig. 1). Fig. 1
It is recommended to always use heavier high quality stainless steel cookware on your Induction Cooktop surface. This will
greatly reduce the possibility of developing scratches on the ceramic surface.
Even quality cookware can scratch the cooktop surface, especially if cookware is slid over the ceramic cooktop surface
without being lifted up. Over time sliding ANY type of cookware over the ceramic cooktop will likely alter the overall ap-
pearance of the cooktop. Eventually the buildup of scratches will make cleaning the surface difficult and degrade the
overall appearance of the cooktop.

USE THE CORRECT SIZE COOKWARE -The Cooking Zones available on the Induction Cooktop require a MINIMUM
pan size to be used at each location (Fig. 2). The inner ring of each Cooking Zone is your guide to the correct MINIMUM
pan size. The pan bottom must FULLY cover the inner ring for proper cooking to occur.
The thicker outer ring at each Cooking Zone is helpful to determine the pan MAXIMUM size. After centering the cookware
on the cooktop, make sure the cookware does not extend more than 1/2" beyond the thicker line on the Cooking Zone
(See example in Fig. 2). The pan must make FULL contact on the glass surface without the bottom of the pan touching the
metal cooktop trims (Shown in Fig. 2).
NOTE: If a pan made of the correct material is centered properly on any of the active Cooking Zones but is TOO SMALL,
the affected Cooking Zone display will flash the power level and the pan will not heat.

Before Using the Cooktop
Use Quality Cookware in Good
Condition
The cookware used with the Induction
Cooktop should have flat bottoms that
make good contact with the entire surface
of the Cooking Zone. Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across the bottom of the
cookware (See Fig. 1). Be sure to follow
all the recommendations for using
cookware as shown in Fig. 2.
Also remember to:
• Use cookware made with the correct
material type for Induction Cooking (See
page 7 Fig. 1).
• Use quality cookware with heavier
bottoms for better heat distribution
allowing for more even cooking results.
• The pan size should match the amount
of food being prepared.
•Do not let pans boil dry. This may
cause permanent damage in the form of
breakage, fusion, or marring that can
affect the ceramic cooktop. (This type
of damage is not covered by your
warranty).
• Do not use dirty pans with grease
buildup. Always use pans that are easy
to clean after cooking.
Fig. 1
The Cooking Zones may
appear to be cool while turned ON and
after they have been turned OFF. But the
glass surface may be HOT from residual
heat transfered from the cookware and
burns may occur.
DO NOT TOUCH HOT
COOKWARE or PANS directly with
hands. Always use oven mitts or pot
holders to protect hands from burns.
DO NOT SLIDE
Cookware across the cooktop surface.
Doing so may permanently damage the
appearance of the ceramic cooktop.
Induction Cookware Recommendations

Fig. 2
PLEASE NOTE - ANY one of the incorrect conditions listed above in
Fig. 2 may be detected by the sensors located below the ceramic
cooktop surface. If the cookware does not meet any of these
conditions, one or more of the Cooking Zones will not heat indicated
by a flashing power level display. Correct the problems before
attempting to reactivate the cooktop.

Before Using the Cooktop
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning creme (on the web visit
www.sears.com for replacement cleaner, item number 40079) to the ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or
no-scratch cleaning pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning creme
leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Setting Cooktop Controls
Using the Touch Control
Be sure that your finger is placed in the center of the touch pad. If the finger is not placed on the center of a pad, the
cooktop may not respond to the selection made.
Lightly contact the pad with the flat part of your entire fingertip. Do not just use the narrow end of your fingertip.
Operating the Cooking Zones
The Induction cooktop has four or five Cooking Zones designed for cookware of various sizes. Be sure to place
cookware that meets the minimum and maximum pan size requirements (see Fig. 2, page 7) for the Cooking Zone
desired and is best for the amount of food being prepared. Place the cookware with the prepared food on the Cooking
Zone BEFORE setting any of the Cooktop controls.
To Turn ON one or more of the Cooking Zones:
1. Place the prepared food using the correct type and size cookware on the desired Cooking Zone. Be sure to center
the cookware on Cooking Zone completely covering the minimum ring marked on the Zone surface. PLEASE NOTE:
If the cookware requirements for the Cooking Zone (See Fig. 2, page 8) are not met the sensors will detect a
problem and the display will flash with the power level in the affected Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric display. Any
problems must be corrected before proceeding.
2. Touch and hold the _ key pad for 2 seconds (or until a beep sounds). The Power LED located above the
key pad will turn ON. NOTE: If no other key pad is touched within 10 seconds the request to Power ON the cooktop
will clear.
3. To start one or more of the five Cooking Zones lightly touch the O key pad for the Cooking Zones needed. A
beep will sound and the chosen Cooking Zone power level Alpha-Numeric display will show "- 2, indicating no power
level for the Zone has been set yet. NOTE: If no other key pad is touched within 10 seconds the request to Power
ON the Cooktop Zone will clear.
4. Set the desired power level for the Oooking Zone by touching either the @ or @ key pad. If the @ key pad
is touched the Cooking Zone will start at a "Power Boost" maximum power level (the Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric
will indicate Pb and the control will beep once). If the @ key pad is touched once the Cooking Zone willdisplay
start at low (the Cooking Zone Alpha-Numeric display will show "Lo" and the control will beep once).
NOTE: Touch once, or repeatedly touch the _,_ or _ key pads to adjust or scroll through power levels at any
during the cooking process (To scroll through the power levels quickly touch and hold the @ or Q key
time
pads until the power level desired is reached). Once the Cooking Zone power level has been set the food will begin
