Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow surface to cool before putting on or taking off parts. 3. Use unit only on a level surface. 4. Use only with induction-compatible cookware. 5. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces. 6. Dry outside of pan before use. 7. Do not heat empty pan. 8. Don’t spill any liquids into vent areas. 9. To protect against electrical shock do not immerse cord, plugs or housing unit in water or other liquids. 10. This appliance should not be used by or near children or individuals with certain disabilities. 11. Do not leave appliance unattended when it is on. 12. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. 13. Do not cook on a broken cooktop – If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and 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 operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Call the nearest authorized Waring customer service center (see Warranty) to return for examination, repair or adjustment. 16. A short power-supply cord is supplied to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. 17. Extension cords are available and may be used if care is
3exercised in their use. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. 18. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. 19. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries. 20. Do not use outdoors or while standing in a damp area. 21. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven. 22. Extreme caution must be used when moving any pot or pan containing hot oil or other hot liquids from this appliance. 23. When using this appliance provide at least 4–6 inches of air space above and on all sides for air circulation. 24. Do not use this appliance for anything other than its intended use. This appliance is for household use only. 25. Always attach plug to appliance rst, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn the unit off, then remove plug from wall outlet. 26. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage or under a wall cabinet. When storing in an appliance garage, always unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of re, especially if the appliance touches the walls of the garage or the door touches the unit as it closes. 27. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to t into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not t fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

Induction heat technology not only uses less energy, it also heats and cools faster than conventional burners. You may end up using your new cooktop more often than your stovetop!
5HOW INDUCTION COOKING WORKSInduction cooking uses electromagnetism to transfer energy into the bottom of your cookware. The surface of the cooktop does not work the same way as conventional cooktops – it sends the energy directly to the cookware. As long as the energy is transferring intothecookware,thecookwarewillstayhot.Oncetheenergyisremoved or reduced, the cookware begins to cool instantly.SELECTING COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION COOKTOPSUse only induction-ready cookwareSelecting the proper induction-ready cookware is very important to the efciency of your induction cooktop. As a general rule, copper, aluminum and glassware will not work on an induction cooktop. Waring highly recommends using magnetic stainless steel, enamel, porcelain on steel, or cast iron. If you are not careful in your selection of cookware for your cooktop, the cookware may not work efciently or possibly may cause damage to the electronics. As a general rule, if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, it will work on an induction cooktop. If a magnet does not stick to the cookware, it will not work on an induction cooktop. If you are unsure, it is best to check with your local merchant to make sure you are purchasing compatible cookware.Note: Not for use with pans smaller than 4.7" diameter.SAFETY FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES• Pollutionfree:noburning,smokeorharmfulgaseslikecarbonmonoxide and sulde• Safe:noame,noexhaust• Easytoclean:high-rigidityglassfaceplate• Energyefcient:usesupto70%lessenergythanconventionalcooktops• Automaticshutoff:cooktopturnsoff30secondsafterpanisremoved• Protectionagainstoverheating

Since you don’t have scorching heat going up the sides of your cookware, the cookware stays cleaner longer.Use a damp cloth with mild soap on the control panel, or use a nonabrasive cooktop cleaning product (specically made for smooth tops and available in most grocery stores).Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.
