This unit is to be used on a flat, level surface.
NOTE: This unit is not designed to be inclosed or built into any area.
There must be a minimum of 4” (10 cm) of space between the
rear of the induction unit and any surrounding surface. There
must be 3/4” (2 cm) between the bottom of the induction unit
and any surrounding surface.
Sufficient airflow must be allowed around the unit. Blocking
the airflow could cause the unit to overheat.
1. Place the induction unit on a flat stable surface.
2. Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet with the matching
nameplate rated voltage.
NOTE: Using a voltage other than the nameplate rated voltage will
cause damage to the unit. Incorrect voltage, modification
to the power cord or electrical components can damage
unit and will void the warranty.

WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Keep water and other liquids from entering the
inside of the unit. Liquid inside the unit could cause
an electrical shock.
If liquid spills or boils over onto the unit, immediately
unplug the unit and remove cookware. Wipe up any
liquid with a padded cloth.
1. Place the room temperature standard flat bottom cast iron skillet pan in
the center position of the heating surface.
NOTE: Do not drop cooking utensils or other objects onto the
cooking surface. The strong, non-porous surface can
break. The warranty does not cover this type of abuse.
2. Press the HEAT CYCLE button (D) or the RE-HEAT CYCLE button (E).
A heating cycle will begin and the preset timer will begin to countdown
on the display panel (C). See Figure 1.
3. Press the OFF button (A) to turn the unit “OFF” before the heating cycle
has ended.
WARNING
Burn Hazard.
Do not touch cookware, heating surface, food, or
liquid while heating.
Hot food and liquids can burn skin. Induction heating
surfaces heat very rapidly. Use caution when adding
to pre-heated oil, liquid or other food already in the
cookware.
If the temperature of the cooking surface becomes too hot, the unit will
turn off. The display will flash “F-2” to indicate the unit is in “over-heating
protection” mode. After the unit has cooled, turn the cooking surface on
and if “F-2” is not displayed, then cooking can resume.
The display window should remain constant during operation. If the
display is flashing, see the TROUBLESHOOTING section in this manual.
Removing cookware for less than two minutes will not interrupt operation
of the unit.

To maintain the appearance and increase the service life, clean your
Induction Heater daily.
1. Unplug the unit and let it completely cool.
2. Wipe the unit exterior with a clean damp cloth.
