Burn prevention
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR
UNITS - Surface units may be hot even though they are
dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch
or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials
contact surface units or areas near units until they have
had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the
cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
After each use, turn off the cooking zone using the control
knob. DO NOT rely on the pan detection feature to turn
off the cooking zones when you remove the pans.

Risk of injury
When cooking with a bain-marie, the cooktop and
cooking vessel may crack due to overheating. The cooking
vessel in the bain-marie must not come in direct contact
with the bottom of the pot filled with water. Use only heat-
resistant cookware.
Cookware may jump upward due to fluid trapped
between the cookware bottom and cooking zone. Always
keep cooking zone and cookware bottom dry.
Do not place metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons
and lids on the cooktop surface since they can get hot.
Do not cook on a broken cooktop. Cleaning solutions and
spillovers may create a risk of electric shock.
Electromagnetic interference
WARNING
This induction cooktop generates and uses ISM frequency
energy that heats cookware by using an electromagnetic
field. It has been tested and complies with Part 18 of the
FCC Rules for ISM equipment. This induction cooktop
meets the FCC requirements to minimize interference with
other devices in residential installation. Induction
cooktops may cause interference with television or radio
reception. If interference occurs, the user should try to
correct the interference by:
•
Relocating the receiving antenna of the radio or
television.
•
Increasing the distance between the cooktop and
the receiver.
It is the user's responsibility to correct any interference.
WARNING
Persons with a pacemaker or similar medical device should
exercise caution when standing near an induction cooktop
while it is in use. Consult your doctor or the manufacturer
of the pacemaker or similar medical device for additional
information about its effects with electromagnetic fields
from an induction cooktop.
