Introduction to Induction
How does induction work?
An induction cooktop houses a series of copper induction coils (based on magnetic
principles). These coils generate magnetic fi elds that induct a warming reaction in
steel and iron-based pots and pans. This way, the cookware itself heats the food, not
the cooktop surface.
What are the benefi ts of cooking with an induction cooktop?
EFFICIENT: Induction cooking is the most eco-friendly and energy-effi cient way to
cook. Induction cooktops use 90% of the energy produced, which is much more
energy-effi cient than gas or electric cooktops. By recognizing the base of the cookware,
induction heats only the diameter of the pot so very little energy is wasted. Moreover,
induction emits no fl ame, so less residual heat is produced in your kitchen.
SAFE: There are no open fl ames or gas emissions and the surface remains cool to
the touch.
FAST: Heating adjustments are immediate, saving you 50% of cooking time when
compared to gas and electric.
EVEN HEAT DISTRIBUTION: Hot spots and rings are avoided because the bottom of
your cookware heats uniformly.
EASY TO CLEAN: The surface is fl at and smooth; spills and overfl ows do not stick to
the cooktop, so they can easily be wiped away.

ENGLISH
What type of cookware can I use on induction?
Since induction is based on magnetic principles, the cookware used must have a
ferrous (iron-based, magnetic) bottom. Some types of cookware are made of natural
magnetic metals (such as pure iron), while others are made to be magnetic by
“sandwiching” a thin layer of a ferrous metal in the base. This layer within the base
is what will be affected by the magnetic fi eld of the induction cooktop and what will
distribute the heat.
Induction compatible cookware:
• Stainless Steel (Note: Not all stainless steel cookware has magnetic properties.
Check with a magnet before use*)
• Cast iron
• All Fagor cookware and stainless steel pressure cookers
Non-induction compatible cookware:
• Copper
• Glass
• Aluminum
• Pottery type vessels
* The easiest way to check whether your cookware is compatible with an induction cooktop
is to take a magnet (a refrigerator magnet will suffi ce) and see if it sticks to the bottom of the
cookware. If it sticks, your cookware will work on the induction cooktop.
ATTENTION:
Cookware used on the Fagor UCook Induction Cooktop must have a fl at,
magnetic bottom of at least 5 inches in diameter.

ENGLISH
General Safety Regulations
The product you have purchased is a state of the art induction cooktop. It adheres to all
of the latest safety and technology standards, however, as with any electric appliance,
there are some potential risks. Only operate this induction cooktop in accordance with
the instructions provided and only for its intended household use.
ATTENTION - In order to prevent possible injuries or electric shock, please observe
the following safety rules:
Never touch the induction cooktop and the power plug with wet hands.
Be sure to operate the unit on a fl at, leveled and stable surface.
Do not connect the induction cooktop to the same outlet as other household
appliances such as microwaves, toaster ovens, etc. as this could overload the
outlet and trip a circuit breaker.
When using an extension cord to connect the cooktop, please note that a
damaged extension cord can cause the unit to malfunction. Always check your
extension cord for damage and be sure it is compliant with the required voltage.
Be sure not to place cord where people can trip over it.
Please do not use cookware on the induction cooktop that has a base of more
than 9.5-inches in diameter.
Please keep your cookware centered on the induction cooktop at all times. Your
cookware should never cover the display or the control panel. Your cookware
should never touch the plastic edgings as this will damage the unit.
Never attempt to unplug the induction cooktop by pulling on the power cable.
• Do not move the induction cooktop during cooking or with hot cookware on top of it.
Do not place any empty cookware on the induction cooktop while it is functioning.
An empty piece of cookware will heat up very rapidly and can cause material
damage or personal injury.
Do not place any metal objects on the induction cooktop (other than the cookware
you intend to cook in).
Check the power cable for damage from time to time. Never operate the induction
cooktop when the cable is damaged. If the power cable shows any signs of
defect, let a qualifi ed electrician repair it.
• Do not heat up any unopened cans of food on the induction cooktop. A heated can
of food could explode. Only cook or heat food in induction compatible cookware.
5
ENGLISH
Although the surface of the induction cooktop remains cool to the touch, please
note that the residual heat from the cookware will eventually warm up the cooking
surface, especially the area directly underneath the pot. Be careful when handling
the cooktop after use and let it cool down before storing.
Persons with a pacemaker or similar medical device should exercise caution using
or standing near an induction unit while it is in operation, as the electromagnetic
eld may affect the working of the pacemaker or similar medical device. We

spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock.
14. Clean cooktop with caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on
a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce
noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
15. Do not place metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and cookware lids
on the surface of the induction cooktop since the residual heat could potentially
make the metal objects very hot.
16. The unit comes with a short power-supply cord to reduce the risk of a tripping
hazard. Longer extension cords may be used if necessary. If a long extension cord
is used:
a) The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the

ENGLISH
Troubleshooting
In order to ensure best results when using the Fagor UCook Induction Cooktop,
read all of the operating instructions and safety regulations contained in this manual.
The following are practical tips and solutions to some common problems you may
experience when using the Fagor UCook Induction Cooktop. If you cannot determine
the cause of the error and correct it, contact our customer service department by
calling 1.800.207.0806.
Problem: The unit keeps beeping and does not generate heat after the
cookware has been placed on the cooktop’s surface and the ON/
OFF button followed by the TEMP./LEVEL button have been pressed.
Reason: The induction cooktop is not detecting the cookware. This could
occur because:
1. The bottom of the cookware is not fl at.
2. The cookware is not induction compatible.
Solution: 1. All cookware used on an induction cooktop must have a
completely fl at bottom. If your pot does not have a fl at bottom,
you will not be able to use it on the induction cooktop.
2. Check that the cookware you want to use is compatible with
induction by applying a magnet to its bottom. If the magnet
doesn’t stick, the cookware will not work on an induction cooktop.
Please refer to page 3 for cookware that that will be compatible
with the induction cooktop.
Problem: I have a stainless steel pot; however, it does not work on my induction
cooktop.
Reason: Not all types of stainless steel are induction compatible, as some
do not have magnetic properties.
Usually, stainless steel pots have an aluminum sandwich bottom, which
consists of one layer of aluminum sandwiched between two layers of
stainless steel. The top layer is usually 18/10 stainless steel which is not
magnetic, and the bottom layer is usually a layer of magnetic stainless
steel (also called “ferrous” or 18/0 stainless steel). This type of pot
will work on induction. However, if your pot is all 18/10 stainless steel
and does not have a sandwich bottom, it will not have the magnetic
properties needed to make it induction compatible.
Solution: If you are unsure whether your cookware is induction compatible,
check with a magnet fi rst. If the magnet doesn’t stick, you will not be
able to use that particular pot on an induction cooktop.
15
ENGLISH
Problem: The cooktop emits a humming noise when I place cookware on the
surface and start cooking.
Reason: A low humming noise is normal when operating an induction
cooktop. The humming sound indicates that the magnetic fi eld is
being generated and the cookware is heating up.
Solution: This is normal operation. As a general rule, the higher-quality
cookware you use (the thicker the bottom), the lower the humming
noise will be.
Problem: I have turned the cooktop off after cooking, but I can still hear the
fan working.
Reason: Even after the cooktop has been turned off, the internal fan will keep
working for a few seconds or minutes to fi nish cooling down the
interior of the cooktop.
Solution: This is normal operation. The fan will turn off by itself after the cooling
down process is complete. Do not unplug the unit before the fan is
off. If you must unplug the unit, make sure you let the unit cool down
completely before storing it.
16
ENGLISH
If the cooktop detects an internal/external error or a wrong connection, it will display
an error message with a code on the display panel and will stop functioning. These
codes will allow you to identify the cause of the error and help you fi nd the solution
to the problem. If the problem has been solved, the error message will disappear and
you will be able to continue using your cooktop. If the error persists, please call our
customer service for assistance at 1-800-207-0806.
E0: Internal circuit error.
Self-help: Call our customer service department for assistance.
E1: There is no cookware on the ceramic plate or incompatible cookware
is being used.
Self-help: Place the cookware on the cooktop. Check if the cookware is
compatible with a magnet.
E2: Overheating protection on IGBT (Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor).
Self-help: The temperature of IGBT is higher than 180°F and this E2 error will
appear in the display. The unit will shut itself off and turn its internal
fan on. Please wait until the fan stops running, unplug the unit and
then plug in again to restart.
E3: Electronic control of excess voltage.
Self-help: Please make sure the appliance is connected to the voltage indicated
on the rating label.
E4: Electronic control of low voltage.
Self-help: Please make sure the appliance is connected to the voltage indicated
on the rating label.
E5: The sensor underneath the ceramic glass has opened or has short
circuited.
Self-help: Please call our customer service department for assistance.
E6: The sensor of IGBT (Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor) has opened
or has short circuited.
Self-help: Please call our customer service department for assistance.
