1. Benefits of Induction Cooking
• What’s different? - The source of “heat” is magnetic induction that causes
the utensil to heat-up directly, rather than the cooking surface.
• Because magnetic induction causes the utensil to become the heat source,
it does not heat the air around the utensil the way conventional heat
sources do - so your kitchen stays cooler.
• Heats much faster and more efciently than a standard electric coil. The
Rena Ware Induction Cooker can boil water twice as fast as a conventional
electric coil of the same power, thereby using half the electricity.
• Excellent control - heating levels adjust easily and quickly. You have the
controllability of gas with the energy efciency of induction.
• Light-weight and portable - goes with you from the kitchen to the dining
room - great for entertaining!
• Easy to keep clean and sanitary.
How Induction Cooking Works
Your Rena Ware Induction Cooker works by generating a magnetic eld.
When an induction compatible cooking utensil is placed in this magnetic eld,
the eld transfers its energy into the utensil causing it to heat-up. By raising
or lowering the strength of the magnetic eld, you control the amount of heat
generated by the utensil.
When you use Rena Ware cookware with your Induction Cooker, you will
experience the benets of our healthy cooking system combined with the
benets of induction cooking. Cooking doesn’t get much better!

CAUTION: The unit will
cause utensils to heat-up
quickly! Be sure to monitor
the utensil carefully at first
to avoid overheating. Never
use the high setting (5) when
heating oil.
How to Use
NOTE: Always provide adequate
ventilation, such as a kitchen
exhaust fan, when cooking with your
Induction Cooker. Place the unit on
a at, even surface. Allow at least
13 cm. (5 in.) clearance around
the sides and back of the unit for
proper ventilation. Plug the electrical
cord into a wall outlet. Do not plug
anything else into the same outlet
when using your Induction Cooker.
1. Center a cooking utensil on top of the
Ceramic Plate.
2. To begin cooking, press the Power
Button once. The Power Indicator
Light will glow steadily to indicate
the unit is on. The unit will
automatically begin at the
medium high (4) setting.
3. Press the Increase Temp button
to increase the heat, or the Reduce Temp button
to lower the heat to the desired level. The corresponding Cooking
Temperature Light will glow red to indicate the selected temperature
level.
4. To turn off, press the Power button again. The Power Indicator Light
will go out to indicate the unit is off.
NOTE:
• After turning off the unit, the internal cooling fan will continue to run
for several moments before automatically shutting down.
• The Power Light will ash and the unit will beep if the power is turned
on when there is no utensil on the unit, or if a utensil is used that is
unsuitable for induction cooking.
• If you remove the utensil from the unit for more than 1 minute, the
power will turn off automatically.
EN

9
Preheating - Use the medium high (4) setting for most preheating.
• Preheating will occur quickly, so be sure to watch the utensil carefully.
• The utensil will be pre-heated properly when a few water droplets
“dance” when dropped into the utensil’s surface.
• Lower the temperature setting if water droplets dry up immediately.
NOTE: Never leave an empty utensil unattended when preheating as
overheating may damage the utensil.
Timer - The timer automatically turns the unit off after a selected amount of
time.
• After selecting a heat temperature setting, press the Set Time button
to select the number of minutes.
• If you make a mistake, press the Cancel Time button to reset. Press Set
Time button again to re-enter minutes.
• The unit will continue to cook at the selected temperature level for the
number minutes you choose before the power automatically turns-off.
NOTE: The unit will beep once before turning off.
Warming - the warm setting will keep foods warm at a temperature of
approximately 70°C (160°F).
• To switch from cooking to warming, push the Warm Select button once.
• Press the Warm Select button again to return to the last temperature
setting.
Helpful Tips
• For utensils with especially thick bases, you may need to use a higher
temperature setting for preheating, cooking, or warming.
• For quicker results when boiling water, always cover the utensil.
• For best results when greaseless frying, sautéing, stir frying, cooking
eggs, or browning meats, etc., always preheat the utensil.

4. Safety Precautions
• IF YOU OR SOMEONE IN YOUR FAMILY HAS A PACEMAKER,
PLEASE CONSULT WITH A PHYSICIAN BEFORE USING. Due to
high operating frequencies, a pacemaker may not function properly
due to electromagnetic transmissions.
• To avoid the possibility of re or sparking, do not place aluminum
foil, paper towels, etc., on the Ceramic Plate during cooking.
• Avoid spilling water or other liquids onto the Induction Cooker, and
never immerse the unit in water.
• Never leave an empty utensil unattended. Overheating an empty
utensil may damage the cookware and cause the unit to turn off.
• Do not block the Cool Air Intake at the back of the unit or the Warm
Air Exhaust at the front of the unit.
• Do not touch the Ceramic Plate immediately after cooking - it may
be hot from residual heat from the utensil.
• Do not place or store very heavy objects (over 27 kg/60 lbs.) on
the Ceramic Plate.
• Do not use outdoors in a wet environment.
EN 3. Maintenance and Storage
Cleaning Tips
PRECAUTION: Never immerse the unit in water.
• Allow the Ceramic Plate to cool completely, and always unplug the unit
before cleaning.
• To clean, wipe off with a moist cloth or sponge and mild liquid detergent.
• Never use strong solvents or abrasives to clean.
Storage
• Always unplug the unit when not in use.
• Store the unit horizontally, or vertically to save space.
• To avoid scratches, protect the nish of your Induction Cooker by
wrapping it with a soft cloth before storing.

5. Cooking the Rena Ware Way
Healthy Cooking
Rena Ware’s healthy cooking system lets you prepare delicious meals
while retaining important nutrients in foods, often lost using other cooking
methods. Our “water-less” cooking method locks moisture in the utensil
so foods cook in their natural juices. They taste better, look better, and are
better for you and your family. We recommend using Rena Ware utensils
with your Induction Cooker for the best “water-less” cooking results.
Do not attempt to cook the “water-less” way using anything other than
Rena Ware utensils.
“Water-less” Cooking Basics
• Use the correct sized utensil - utensil should be 2/3 full for best results.
• To save vitamins and minerals, don’t peel fruits and vegetables. First
lightly scrub and wash, cut into pieces if desired, then place in the
utensil.
• Rinse in the utensil using cold water and drain until water is clear,
leaving 1 to 4 tablespoons water in the utensil.
NOTE: Use more water for denser foods.
• Start on the medium high (4) setting.
• Cover and cook with vent open until the Nutri 3 Sensor whistles. Close
the vent and spin the cover. The water seal has formed when the cover
spins freely.
• After water seal forms, reduce the temperature setting to Warm. A
semi-vacuum will form locking avor and nutrients in foods.
NOTE: The Induction Cooker will cycle on and off on the Warm setting.
This is normal. If the Warm setting is too high to maintain a water seal, you
may need to turn the unit off to nish cooking.
Basic Fat-free Frying
• Preheat on medium high (4) setting until a little water sprinkled in utensil
“dances”.
• Add meat and lower the heat to the medium (3) setting.
• Meat will stick at rst, but will release easily once seared.

Approximate Cooking Times
(after water seal forms, on warm to low (1) temperature settings).
Cooking Times
When using Rena Ware “water-less” cookware with your Induction Cooker,
you will nd that a water seal forms much quicker. Once the “water-seal”
forms, you can use the following table to estimate the remaining cooking time
for many types of food. The Rena Ware “Healthy Cooking” Cookbook also
has extensive cooking time charts you can reference.
In general, cooking “water-less” with Rena Ware utensils and your Rena
Ware Induction Cooker, will reduce cooking times and lower your energy
bills at the same time! Use the Induction Cooker’s timer function and
the following table for convenient timer cooking. Always check your food
occasionally during cooking to avoid overcooking.
