Use the Correct Cookware Type
For the induction zones, the magnetic Cooking Zone
sensors located below the cooktop surface require the use
of cookware made with magnetic material in order to start
the heating process on any of the Cooking Zones.
When purchasing pans, look for cookware specically
identied by the manufacturer for use with Induction
cooktops. If you are not sure, use a magnet to test whether
the cookware type will work. If a magnet sticks to the
bottom of the cookware, the material type is correct for
Induction cooking (See Fig. 1).
Fig. 1
It is recommended to always use heavier high quality
stainless steel cookware on your Induction Cooktop
surface. This will greatly reduce the possibility of developing
scratches on the ceramic surface.
Even quality cookware can scratch the cooktop surface,
especially if cookware is slid over the ceramic cooktop
surface without being lifted up. Over time sliding ANY type
of cookware over the ceramic cooktop will likely alter the
overall appearance of the cooktop. Eventually the buildup
of scratches will make cleaning the surface difcult and
degrade the overall appearance of the cooktop.
BEFORE USING THE COOKTOP
Induction Cooktop Features
A COOLER COOKTOP- A unique feature of the
Induction Cooktop is whether turned ON or OFF, the
cooktop surface remains cooler than standard ceramic
cooktops.
The Cooking Zones may appear to be
cool while turned ON and after they have been turned
OFF. The glass surface may be HOT from residual heat
transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.
MAGNETIC DETECTOR- The coil sensor automatically
detects whether the pan is magnetic and eliminates ac-
cidental "turn-On".
PAN SIZE DETECTION- The pan recognition sensor
automatically detects and adapts the Cooking Zones to
the pan sizes in use.
EFFICIENT- Induction cooking heats faster while using
less energy. Induction power levels are quick to boil and
when simmering.
Selecting Surface Cooking Cookware
The cookware used with the Induction Cooktop should have
at bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface
of the Cooking Zone. Check for atness by rotating a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 2). Be sure to
follow all the recommendations for using cookware.
Figure 2
Prior to using your cooktop for the rst time, apply a
cooktop cleaning creme to the ceramic surface. Buff with
a non-abrasive cloth or pad. This will make cleaning easier
when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning
cream leaves a protective nish on the glass to help prevent
scratches and abrasions.
Also remember to:
Use cookware made with the correct material type for
Induction Cooking.
Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better
heat distribution allowing for more even cooking results.
The pan size should match the amount of food being
prepared.
Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent
damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marring that
can affect the ceramic cooktop. (This type of damage is
not covered by your warranty).
Do not use dirty pans with grease buildup. Always use
pans that are easy to clean after cooking.
CAUTION
The Cooking Zones may appear to be cool while
turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. The
glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred
from the cookware and burns may occur.
DO NOT SLIDE Cookware across the cooktop surface.
Doing so may permanently damage the appearance of
the ceramic cooktop.
DO NOT TOUCH HOT COOKWARE or PANS directly
with hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to
protect hands from burns.
9
BEFORE USING THE COOKTOP
NOTE
Pan bottoms should not extend more than ½” (13mm)
beyond outer Cooking Zone (Induction).
NOTE
If a pan made of the correct material is centered
properly on any of the active Cooking Zones but is TOO
SMALL, the affected Cooking Zone display will ash the
power level and the pan will not heat.
The Cooking Zones available on the Induction Cooktop
require a MINIMUM pan size to be used at each location
(Figs. 2 & 3).
The outer tips of each cooking zone cross-hair is helpful
to determine the pan MAXIMUM size. After centering the
cookware on the cooktop, make sure the cookware does
not extend more than 1/2” beyond the thicker line on the
Cooking Zone. The pan must make FULL contact on the
glass surface without the bottom of the pan touching the
metal cooktop trims.
Cookware Recommendations Minimum Pan Size Requirements
NOTE
ANY one of the incorrect conditions listed above in Fig. 1
may be detected by the sensors located below the ceramic
cooktop surface. If the cookware does not meet any of
these conditions, one or more of the Cooking Zones will
not heat indicated by a ashing power level in the digital
display for that affected zone. Correct the problems before
attempting to reactivate the cooktop.
Be sure to follow the following recommendations for
using cookware as shown:
INCORRECT
CORRECT
Cookware not centered
on Cooking Zone surface.
• Cookware centered

SETTING INDUCTION SURFACE CONTROLS
Surface cooking settings
Use the chart to determine the correct setting for the
type of food you are preparing.
Note: The size and type of cookware used will inuence
the setting needed for best cooking results.
Recommended Setting for Surface Element
Setting Type of Cooking
HIGH (HI) Start most foods; bring water to a boil
and pan broiling.
MEDIUM HIGH
(8-10)
Continue a rapid boil; frying, deep fat
frying.
MEDIUM (6) Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces
and gravies; steaming vegetables.
MEDIUM LOW
(2 - 4)
Keep foods cooking; poaching and
stewing.
LOW (LO) Keep warm, melting and simmering.
The Electronic Surface Element
Control
The Electronic Surface Element Control includes digital display
windows. The control provides a numeric digital setting for the
surface element positions on the cooktop. These settings work
the same way as normal knob setting indicators work except
the settings are displayed in digital windows (Figs. 1 thru 8).
The available Display Settings
The control provides various heat levels from Hi (Fig. 2) to Lo
(Fig. 4) and OFF (Fig. 1). The settings between 9.0 and 1.5
decrease or increase in increments of .5 (1/2).
Hot Element Indicator Message (HE)
After using any of the element positions the cooktop will
become very hot. Even after turning the control knob to OFF,
the cooktop will remain hot for some time. The control monitors
the temperature of the cooktop and displays the message "HE"
(hot element) warning when the cooktop is still too hot to touch
(See Fig. 5). If the HE message appears in the window, the
control can still be turned ON again for use.
Power Boost Indicator Message (Pb)
When an induction zone is rst set at Hi, the Power Boost
feature will turn on (see Fig. 6). The Power Boost feature
is used to bring large quantities of water or food to cooking
temperature at the fastest speed possible. The Power Boost
feature will give you up to 139% power output for a set
amount of time (approx. 10 min).
Error Indicator Message
An error message will be displayed at power up (or after a
power failure) if ANY of the surface control knobs were left
in the ON positions. If any control knobs were turned on
during a power failure of more than 10 seconds, the display
will show an “Er” message. If a power failure should occur,
be sure to set all of the surface control knobs to the OFF
position. This will reset the surface controls.
The induction zones are equipped with a pot detection system.
If the controls are activated and the detection system cannot
nd any pot of the correct material on the zone, it will ash
its power level for 3 minutes. After ashing for 3 minutes,
the digital display will show an - - message.
Error message “C” will only appear during a fault condition.
Error messages “Er” and “- -” may appear on display after
an invalid action by the user. Set surface control knob to
the OFF position to reset the control.
Once the surface controls have been set to the OFF positions,
the surface controls should return to normal operation. If
the surface controls do not function and the C, “Er, or
- -” message remains in any display after following these
procedures, contact your authorized servicer for assistance.

Power Management
In order to give you more exibility, your induction
cooktop is equipped with more cooking zones than the
number of induction generators. Each of those generators
is assigned to power a specic cooking zone. One or two
cooking zones are assigned to each generator. If you use
more than one cooking zone at high power on the same
generator, the generator may need to manage its power
to both cooking zones.
Depending on the size of your cooktop, 2 or 3 generators
are available:
The 30” cooktop is equipped with 4 cooking zones
within 2 sections.
The 36” cooktop is equipped with ve cooking zones
within 3 sections.
To get the highest power output from your
cooking zones, start your cooking process on only one
cooking zone within the heating section and then add
your second cookware on the second cooking zone when
the rst one has already reached its cooking temperature.
Preheat Recommendations
When preheating a pan on the cooktop always watch
carefully. Whenever using the cooktop, always pay
attention to any items cooking and remain attentive until
the cooking process is complete.
Keep in mind that induction may decrease the amount of
time required to preheat a cooking utensil.
Operational Noises
The electronics generating the induction elds are pretty
much noiseless but they do produce heat at high power
level. A soft-sounding cooling fan activates when the
unit is running multiple cooking zones at once or when a
cooking zone is set at very high power settings.
The buzzing sound you could hear from your cooktop is
not coming from the electronics but from the cookware
you are using. Here are some causes of this noise:
• Most induction-ready cookware are made of several
layers of materials. An encapsulated steel layer
is usually used to harness the induction eld and
transform it into heat, which is then transferred to
the other materials by radiant energy. The induction
eld will cause the steel layer to vibrate against the
other materials in which it is encapsulated. This is
the most common cause of noise from the induction
process. This buzzing only happens at the higher
power level settings. Note that high quality cookware
manufacturers weld this steel layer in place which
lowers or cancel this noise.
• Light weight cookware may also vibrate. We
recommend using heavy weight quality cookware.
• Cookware with warped bottoms can vibrate on the
ceramic glass surface at high power settings.
The power output of your induction
cooktop is capable of warping an empty pan. Never
use the higher power settings on an empty pan. Even
the highest quality cookware is vulnerable to warping.
• Riveted handles on cookware can also cause buzzing
sounds from the vibrations.
• Solid cast iron and enamelware cookware should not
emit any noise. Top quality cookware made of several
layers should also be relatively quiet.

CARE & CLEANING
Cleaning Various Parts of Your Cooktop
Before cleaning any part of the cooktop, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the cooktop is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS
AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANINGS NOW WILL REDUCE THE DIFFICULTY AND EXTENT
OF A MAJOR CLEANING LATER.
Surfaces How to Clean
Stainless Steel
Decorative Trim Cooktop, Control
Knobs, Control Panel
Wipe the control panel clean after each use. Before cleaning the control
panel, turn all controls to OFF and remove the control knobs. To remove, pull each
knob straight off the shaft. Clean using hot, soapy water and a cloth. Do not use
cleaners with high concentrations of chlorides or chlorines. Do not use
harsh scrubbing cleaners. Be sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth before
wiping the panel; especially when wiping around the controls. Excess water in or
around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. Only use kitchen cleaners
that are especially made for cleaning stainless steel. Always be sure to rinse the
cleaners from the surface as bluish stains may occur during heating that cannot be
removed. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the at sides of both the knob
and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Ceramic Glass
Cooktop
See Ceramic Glass Cooktop in this Owner’s Guide.
Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning &
Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleaning is
essential to maintaining your Ceramic
glass cooktop.
Prior to using your cooktop for the rst time, apply
a ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in most
hardware, grocery and department stores) to the ceramic
surface. Clean and buff with a clean paper towel. This will
make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. Cooktop
cleaning creams leave a protective nish on the glass to
help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the
cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop
surface. These marks should be removed immediately
after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning
cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not
removed prior to future use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough
bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do
not slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop.
Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work
surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the
cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or
hard objects on the glass cooktop, or they may crack it.

CARE & CLEANING
Cleaning Recommendations for the
Ceramic Glass Cooktop
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of cleaning creme directly to the
cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive
plastic type no-scratch pad to clean the entire cooktop
surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly,
leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of cleaning Creme directly to the soiled
area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive plastic
type no-scratch pad, applying pressure as needed. Do
not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for any
other purpose.
Do not use the following on the ceramic glass
cooktop:
Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads,
such as metal and some nylon pads. They may
scratch the cooktop, making it more difcult to
clean.
Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine
bleach, ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may
etch or discolor the cooktop.
Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper
towels, as they can leave soil or lint on the
cooktop which can burn and cause Special
Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum
Cooking Utensils
WARNING
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop.
The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can
chemically damage the ceramic glass surface.
CAUTION
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are
turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
Aluminum foil
Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not
use under any circumstances.
Aluminum utensils
Since the melting point of aluminum is much lower
than that of other metals, care must be taken when
aluminum pots or pans are used. Pans that boil dry
may permanently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing
to, or marking it.
Care and Cleaning of Stainless Steel
Some models are equipped with stainless steel exterior
parts. Special care and cleaning are required for
maintaining the appearance of stainless parts. Refer
to the General Care & Cleaning table for detailed
cleaning instructions.
IMPORTANT
Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you
use an abrasive type scratch pad. Only use cleaning
products that have been specically designed for
ceramic glass cooktop.
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor
blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the
surface. Remove loosened soils, then apply a few drops
of cleaning cream and buff surface clean.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if
spilled or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface.
Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop
surface) may occur if not removed immediately. After
turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade
scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil
from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to
cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on
soils.
