WARNING!
Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire, electrical shock, serious injury or death.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Use this cooktop only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual.
- Be sure your cooktop is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer in accordance with the provided installation instructions.
- Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your cooktop unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be performed by a qualified technician.
- Before performing any service, unplug the cooktop or disconnect the power supply at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker.
- Do not leave children alone—children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the cooktop is in use. They should never be allowed to climb, sit or stand on any part of the cooktop.
-
CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children above the cooktop—children climbing on the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.
-
Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
- Never use your cooktop for warming or heating the room.
- Do not touch surface elements. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact the surface elements or areas nearby the surface elements; allow sufficient time for cooling first.
- Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
- Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.
- Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an internal temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an internal temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE COOKTOP
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
- Do not store or use flammable materials near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
- Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the cooktop. These garments may ignite if they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.
- Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the cooktop. Grease on the cooktop may ignite.
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- In the event of a fire, do not use water or grease on fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitted lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or a foam-type fire extinguisher.
- Never leave the surface units unattended at medium or high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
-
Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.
-
To avoid spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.
- Use the proper pan size - select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.
- To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby surface units.
INDUCTION COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.
- Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the glass cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
- Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as knives, sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.
-
Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used. If the cooktop is inadvertently turned on, they may ignite. Heat from the cooktop or oven vent after it is turned off may cause them to ignite also.
-
Use CERAMA BRYTE® ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop. Wait until the cooktop cools and the indicator light goes out before cleaning. A wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can cause steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label. NOTE: Sugary spills are an exception. They should be scraped off while still hot using an oven mitt and a scraper. See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section for detailed instructions.
- CAUTION: Persons with a pacemaker or similar medical device should exercise caution when using or standing near an induction cooktop while it is in operation. The electromagnetic field may affect the working of the pacemaker or similar medical device. It is advisable to consult your doctor or the pacemaker manufacturer about your particular situation.

Selecting Cooktop Settings
Choose the element/burner that is best fit to the cookware size. Each element/burner on your new cooktop has its own power levels ranging from low to high. Power level settings necessary for cooking will vary depending on the cookware being used, the type and quantity of food, and the desired outcome. In general use lower settings for melting, holding and simmering and use higher settings for heating quickly, searing and frying. When keeping foods warm confirm selected setting is sufficient to maintain food temperature above 140°F. Larger elements and elements marked "Keep Warm" are not recommended for melting.
Hi is the highest power level, designed for large quantity rapid cooking and boiling. Hi will operate for a maximum of 10 minutes. Hi may be repeated after the initial 10 minute cycle by pressing the + pad.
CAUTION: Do not place any cookware, utensils or leave excess water spills on control key pads. This may result in unresponsive touch pads and turning off the cooktop if present for several seconds.

* Options in grey are default settings
How Induction Cooking Works
The elements beneath the cooking surface produce a magnetic field that causes the electrons in the ferrous metal pan to vibrate and produce heat.
The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat is produced in the cooking pan, and cannot be generated until a pan is placed on the cooking surface.
When the element is activated, the pan begins to heat immediately and in turn heats the contents of the pan.
Magnetic induction cooking requires the use of cookware made of ferrous metals—metals to which magnets will stick, such as iron or steel.
Use pans that fit the element size. The pan must be large enough for the safety sensor to activate an element.
The cooktop will not operate if a very small steel or iron utensil (less than the minimum size across the bottom) is placed on the cooking surface when the unit is turned on—items such as steel spatulas, cooking spoons, knives and other small utensils.

Use the minimum size pan for the element. The pan material is correct if a magnet sticks to the bottom.
Cooking Noise
Cookware "noise"
Slight sounds may be produced by different types of cookware. Heavier pans such as enameled cast iron produce less noise than a lighter weight multi-ply stainless steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount of contents, can also contribute to the sound level.
When using adjacent elements that are set at certain power level settings, magnetic fields may interact and produce a low whistle or intermitted "hum". These noises can be reduced or eliminated by lowering or raising the power level settings of one or both of the elements. Pans that completely cover the element ring will produce less noise.
A low "humming" noise is normal particularly on high settings.
Sounds you may here: You may hear a slight "Buzz" when cooking with Hi mode. This is normal. The sound depends on the type of pot being used. Some pots will "Buzz" louder depending on the material. A "Buzz" sound may be heard if the pan contents are cold. As the pan heats, the sound will decrease. If the power level is reduced, the sound level will go down.
Choosing The Correct Cookware To Use
Using the correct size cookware
Pans that are not ferrous or are too small will not allow the induction element to turn on, and the ON indicator for that element location will flash for 25 seconds and then turn off. If a pan is removed for more than 25 seconds, the power will be shut off. Cookware larger than the element ring may be used; however, heat will only occur above the element. For best results, the cookware must make FULL contact with the glass surface.
Do not allow the bottom of the pan or cookware to touch the surrounding metal cooktop trim or to overlap the cooktop controls.
For best performance, match the pan size to the element size. Using a smaller pot on a larger burner will generate less power at any given setting.
Suitable Cookware
Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution and even cooking results. Choose cookware made of magnetic stainless steel, enamel coated cast iron, enameled steel and combinations of these materials.
Some cookware is specifically identified by the manufacturer for use with induction cooktops. Use a magnet to test if the cookware will work.
Flat-bottomed pans give best results. Pans with rims or slight ridges can be used.
Round pans give best results. Pans with warped or curved bottoms will not heat evenly.
For wok cooking, use a flat-bottomed wok. Do not use a wok with a support ring.

30" wide cooktop. Use the minimum recommended size pan shown for each cooking element.

36" wide cooktop. Use the minimum recommended size pan shown for each cooking element.

Use flat-bottomed pans.

Use a griddle.

Use a flat-bottomed wok.
Choosing The Correct Cookware To Use
Cookware recommendations
Cookware must fully contact the surface of the cooking element.
Use flat-bottomed pans sized to fit the cooking element and also to the amount of food being prepared.
Induction interface disks are NOT recommended.
INCORRECT

Flat pan bottom.

Pan size meets or exceeds the recommended minimum size for the cooking element used.

Pan bottom rests completely on the cooktop surface.

Pan is properly balanced.

Pan is completely magnetic on the bottom.
Using the Griddle
CAUTION: Burn Hazard
- Griddle surfaces may be hot enough to cause burns during and after use. Place and remove the griddle when it is cool and all surface units are off. Use oven mitts if you will touch the griddle while hot. Failure to do so can result in burns.
- Place and remove the griddle only when griddle is cool and all surface burners are turned OFF.
Before using this cookware for the first time, wash it to make sure it is clean. Then season it lightly, rubbing cooking oil onto the cooking surface.
How To Place The Griddle
IMPORTANT: Always place and use your griddle at the designated location on the cooktop.

To turn on the surface units for the entire griddle, use the Sync Burner control feature. Touch the Sync Burner pad and then adjust power level to desired setting as described on page 8.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- Clean the griddle with a sponge and mild detergent in warm water. DO NOT use blue or green scrubbing pads or steel wool.
- Avoid cooking extremely greasy foods and be careful of grease spillover while cooking.
- Never place or store any items on the griddle, even when it is not in use. The griddle can become heated when using the surrounding surface units.
- Avoid using metal utensils with sharp points or rough edges, which might damage the griddle. Do not cut foods on the griddle.
- Do not use cookware as a storage container for food or oil. Permanent staining and/or craze lines could result.
- Your griddle will discolor over time with use.
- Do not clean the griddle in a self-cleaning oven.
• Always allow the cookware to cool before immersing in water. - Do not overheat the griddle.

Normal Daily Use Cleaning
ONLY use CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the glass cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective.
To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop, follow these steps:
- Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier.
- Daily use of CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner will help keep the cooktop looking new.
- Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner directly to the cooktop.
-
Use a paper towel or CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops to clean the entire cooktop surface.
-
Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. No need to rinse.
NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly.

Clean your cooktop after each spill. Use CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner.
Burned-On Residue
NOTE: DAMAGE to your glass surface may occur if you use scrub pads other than those recommended.

- Spread a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the entire burned residue area.

NOTE: Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
Metal marks and scratches
1 Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop surface.
These marks are removable using the CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner with the CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops.
2 If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black discoloration on the cooktop.
This should be removed immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.
WARNING: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness that would scratch the cooktop.
Glass surface—potential for permanent damage
Damage from sugary spills and melted plastic:
1 Turn off all surface elements. Remove hot pans.
2 Wearing an oven mitt:
a. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper (CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Scraper) to move the spill to a cool area on the cooktop.
b. Remove the spill with paper towels.
3 Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.
4 Don't use the surface elements again until all of the residue has been completely removed.
NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass surface has already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.
Our testing shows that if you are cooking high sugar mixtures such as jelly or fudge and have a spillover, it can cause permanent damage to the glass surface unless the spillover is immediately removed.
