Cleaning the Induction Range

Aer the inducon range has cooled down, clean as follows:

Glass Cooktop: Wipe with a damp cloth or use a mild, non-abrasive cleaning soluon.

Stainless Steel Body: Clean with a damp so cloth or a mild cleaning soluon or stainless cleaner/polish.

Control Panel: Wipe with a damp cloth only. Do not spray with cleaning soluons! Do not use sharp or metal objects to press the buons! Only press the buons using your nger!!

Air Filter: Remove the air Iter located underneath the unit by pulling it out from the front.

Wash/rinse by hand using warm water and detergent to remove oil/grease and dust.

Dry thoroughly and re-install the Iter on the guides underneath the unit.

DO NOT USE SHARP OBJECTS OR ABRASIVES ON THE GLASS COOKTOP. SCRATCHES IN THE GLASS CAN WEAKEN IT AND LEAD TO BREAKAGE!

Cookware Requirements

Cooking with any inducon range requires the use of inducon compatible pots/pans. In general this means that the vessel must be magnec. If a magnet socks to it, it will probably be a good Inducon pan. Other things to consider are the size and shape of the pan. Pans should have a minimum boom diameter of 4.75 inches, and the boom of the pan should be at within about 1/8 of an inch. For best results, the maximum boom diameter of the pan should not exceed 10.25 inches.

Materials that will NOT work with inducon ranges include glass, ceramics, earthenware, bronze, copper, aluminum or 300 series stainless steel.

To test a pan to see if it is compatible, put it on the range, press the Start buon and increase the power level. If the display ashes 'U' the pan is not compatible with inducon cooking.
