Frequently Asked Questions - 9110A-C Nemco

What type of cookware is compatible with the Nemco 9110A-C induction range?

Only induction-compatible cookware with a magnetic base will work. Test with a magnet: if it sticks, it is likely compatible. The pan bottom must be flat (within 1/8") and have a diameter between 4.75" and 10.25". Materials like glass, ceramic, copper, or aluminum will not work.

What does the 'U' flashing on the display mean?

The 'U' indicates that no pan or an incompatible pan is detected on the cooktop. Place a suitable induction pan on the cooking zone. If the pan is removed during cooking, the display will show 'U' and the unit will turn off after about 40 seconds; to resume, place the pan back and press the power up button.

How do I clean the induction range?

After the unit has cooled, wipe the glass cooktop with a damp cloth or a mild non-abrasive cleaner. Do not use metal scouring pads, sharp objects, or abrasive cleaners, as they can scratch and damage the glass surface.

What are the recommended power levels for different cooking tasks?

For the 9110A-C (cooking unit, levels 1-9): Stir fry at 8-9; boil water at 8-9 then reduce to 5-6; pan fry at 5-9; sauté/simmer at 3-5; warming at 2; chocolate melting at 1. Adjust based on pan and food volume.

What should I do if the display shows an error code like '1', '2', or '3'?

Error codes indicate electrical issues: 1 = overcurrent, 2 = overvoltage, 3 = undervoltage. First, unplug the unit and check the outlet voltage. If the error persists, contact Nemco customer service. Other codes like 4 (overheat), 6 (pan overheated) require cooling down and ensuring proper ventilation.

Can I use the range without a pan?

No, the induction range will not operate without an appropriate pan on the cooktop. The display will flash 'U' and the unit will remain in standby. Small metal objects like knives or spoons are not detected as valid pans.

How do I install the range into a countertop?

The range can be flush-mounted directly into the countertop, ensuring the glass surface is flush. Alternatively, use the optional Stainless Steel Trim Ring for a simpler cut-out. Seal around the unit with silicone caulking to prevent liquid ingress. Ensure at least 4" clearance from vent openings for proper airflow.

What is the warranty coverage for the Nemco 9110A-C?

Nemco provides a one-year warranty from the date placed in service (or 18 months from shipment) covering parts and labor for defects in material and workmanship under normal use. The warranty does not cover damage from misuse, improper voltage, or unauthorized repairs. Contact Nemco for authorized service.

Why does the fan continue running after I turn off the unit?

The cooling fan may continue to operate for a short period after the unit is turned off to cool internal components. This is normal and helps prolong the life of the electronics.

What is the maximum power consumption of the 9110A-C?

The maximum power consumption is 1800 watts at 120 volts, drawing 15 amps. Ensure the unit is connected to a dedicated circuit with proper grounding.

Power Sengs/Cooking Guide

The ‘Best’ Power Sengs will vary depending on the range model number, the type and shape of the pan being used, as well as the type and quantity of food being cooked or held. Unl you get a ‘feel’ for the unit, you should start at medium seings of 5 or 6 and adjust up or down from there to get the performance you want.

For cooking units (9110, 9110-1, 9111-1) you can use the following as a starng guide:

1. Sr Fry: Quickly sr fry on high heat sengs of 8 or 9.
2. Boil Water: Boil water on high heat sengs of 8 or 9, then reduce to level 5 or 6 to maintain a hard boil. Reduce to 3 or 4 for a slow boil.
3. Pan Fry: Pan fry on medium to high heat sengs of 5 to 9.
4. Sauté/Simmer: Use medium to low sengs 3 to 5.
5. Warming: Hold food at serving temperatures using seng 2. Results will vary depending on the volume of food being held.
6. Chocolate Melng: Use seng 1.

For Warming units (9100, 9100-1), the following chart shows an approximate temperature guide. Results will vary depending on the type of pan, and the type and volume of food being held.

Warmer Seng	1	2	3	4	5	6	7
Temp °F	95	105	122	140	160	180	195

Cleaning the Inducon 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.

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 scks 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.

Installaon Guide

Always ensure that the glass surface of the range is mounted FLUSH with the counter top. The exposed edge of the glass is fragile and can be easily chipped or broken by side impact.

If ush moung is not feasible, you can purchase the oponal Stainless Steel Trim Ring this allows you make a simple cut-out in the counter top, and the Trim Ring supports the unit and protects the glass edge from damage.

With either moung method, seal around the unit (and Trim Ring) with silicone caulking to keep liquids from penetrang and geng below the surface.

If the units are mounted in a closed cabinet, you must ensure that there is adequate air ow for the units. Each unit draws in cooling air from the back, and exhausts warm air from the front. In a closed cabinet you must provide adequate openings for both the intake and the exhaust air.
