Frequently Asked Questions - SM-651R Spring USA

How do I clean the SM-651R cooker?

Unplug the cooker and let it cool completely. Wipe the glass ceramic surface with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a ceramic cooktop cleaner. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals.

What type of cookware is compatible?

Use flat-bottomed cookware made of stainless steel, cast iron, or enameled iron. For induction-compatible models, ensure the cookware has a magnetic base. Avoid glass or ceramic pots.

Why does the cooker shut off automatically?

The SM-651R has an auto shut-off feature for safety. It will turn off after 2 hours of continuous operation or if the surface temperature exceeds safe limits. This prevents overheating and accidents.

Can I use the cooker outdoors?

No, this cooker is designed for indoor use only. It should not be exposed to rain, direct sunlight, or extreme temperatures. Use in a well-ventilated area on a stable, heat-resistant surface.

What is the maximum power consumption?

The SM-651R draws up to 1500W at 120V. Ensure your electrical outlet can handle this load and do not use extension cords unless they are rated for at least 15A.

How do I set the timer?

Press the timer button and use the +/- to set desired minutes (up to 180). The cooker will automatically shut off when the timer expires. Adjust heat level before starting the timer.

Why is the error code E1 displayed?

Error E1 indicates a temperature sensor fault. Unplug the cooker, let it cool, and plug it back in. If the error persists, contact Spring USA customer support for repair.

Can I use a metal spatula on the cooking surface?

Avoid using metal utensils as they can scratch the glass ceramic surface. Use wooden or silicone spatulas to prevent damage.

Is there a child lock feature?

Yes, press and hold the lock button for 3 seconds to activate child lock. This disables the control panel. Repeat to unlock.

Where can I find replacement parts?

MAX

INDUCTION®

By Spring USA®

Model: SM-651R & SM-653R (International Plug)

Before You Begin:

Read the following instructions in their entirety. Use proper serving vessels. All serving vessels must be induction-ready.

Your MAX Induction ^® Warmer must have proper ventilation in order to operate correctly. There must be at least 7" of space available under a mounted induction warmer. Cabinets housing the induction warmers should have intake & exhaust vents. For optimal performance, the inside temperature of the cabinet should not exceed 90°F / 32°C.

Ensure that you have dedicated power to the installed location. Each induction warmer will draw 5.4 Amps (International Model will draw 2.7 Amps).

Suitable Serving Ware:

Your MAX Induction ^® Warmer works with induction-ready serving vessels. Visit the Spring USA Website for a full line of induction-ready, professional serve ware.

Serving pieces must have a flat bottom, in order to make full contact with the countertop.

Serving pieces that are footed, or that have a raised ridge, are not for use on this system, as they cannot make full contact with the counter surface.

Vessels must have a diameter greater than 9".

Glass Cookware is not suited for use on your induction warming system.

Serving vessels must be centered on the induction warmer for optimal heating and performance.

The ventilation areas into and out of the cabinet should be provided. Active ventilation may be necessary dependent on cabinet design.

Actual range temperatures may vary due to a number of variables such as ambient temperature in the immediate surrounding area, content and volume of food being heated or cooked, and whether or not you are utilizing a cover on the vessel you are using.

Never attempt to service any part of your MAX Induction® Range on your own. Contact our Service Department by calling (1) 630-527-8600.

Attempting to service your Induction Range on your own, or through an unauthorized repair facility automatically voids your warranty. For service forms, visit the Spring USA Website.
