WHAT IS INDUCTION COOKING?
Induction cooking is a method of providing fast, consistent heat with great benefits
for the home cook. Unlike other forms of cooking, heat is generated directly in the
pot or pan, as opposed to being generated in the stovetop by electrical coils or
burning gas.
Induction Cook Tops are faster and more energy-efficient than traditional electric
hobs. They allow instant control of cooking energy similar to gas burners however,
because induction heats the cooking pot itself, the possibility of a burn injury is
significantly less than with other methods; the surface of the cook top is only heated
from contact with the pot. There are no flames or red-hot electric heating elements as
found in traditional cooking equipment.
Induction Cook Tops are safer to use than conventional cook tops because there are
no open flames and the element itself reaches only the temperature of the cooking
pot; only the pot generates heat. Induction cook tops are easy to clean because the
cooking surface is flat and smooth. Since the cooking surface is not directly heated,
spilled food does not burn on the surface.
PRODUCT FEATURES
• Energy saving – Induction cooking is an energy efficient way to cook. Save time
as well as energy with the fast heating induction method.

control with multifunction safety.
• Environmentally friendly – The Induction Cook Top has no pollution, flame,
smoke or carbon monoxide during the cooking process.
• Easy to clean – The Induction Cook Top is made of a high quality heatproof
black micro-crystal glass ceramic plate and stainless steel making it easy to
clean.

POINTS OF ATTENTION
1. Due to the high speed of heating, once the ingredients have been added, the cooking
pot must be placed on the glass plate as soon as possible.
2. The cooking pot must be placed on the centre of the induction plate; the diameter of
the cooking pot bottom must be between 12cm and 22cm otherwise the Induction
Cook Top will not operate.
3. As with any electrical appliance when using your Induction Cook Top, use away from
running water, heat, or any source of moisture.
4. The Induction Cook Top must be placed on a horizontal surface, and kept a distance
of 10cm from the wall to prevent blockage of the rear vent.
SAFETY MECHANISMS
SAFETY MECHANISMS
1. Over or low voltage protection: The induction heating equipment will
automatically switch off if the voltage level is too high/low.
2. Auto inspection for pot/pan protection: The induction heating equipment will
not be activated and will shut down after 30 seconds if the cooking pot/pan
is unsuitable or if you have not put the cooking pot on top of the Induction
Cook Top. The New Wave Induction Cook Top will only work when a suitable
cooking pot is placed on the centre of the ceramic plate.
3. Over temperature protection: if the surface temperature of the ceramic plate
is too high, the Induction Cook Top will automatically shut off to prevent
overheating.
PLEASE NOTE
1. Do not place any unsuitable cooking pots or objects on the glass plate, e.g.
Aluminium foil, fork, spoon, knife, etc.
2. To avoid the risk of fire, do not put any paper or cloth on top of the ceramic
plate when heating.
3. Do not place the induction heating equipment on carpet or a tablecloth when
operating.
4. Do not strike the ceramic plate with any object. In the event of cracking, cut
off the power supply immediately and do not use again.
5. Do not heat a sealed tin directly on the ceramic plate, as the air within the tin
will expand due to the heat and could lead to an explosion.
6. The ceramic plate will be hot from the heat generated by the cooking pot.
Some heat will remain on the plate after use, do not touch the ceramic plate
in order to prevent scalding.
7. To avoid electric shocks and damage to the equipment, do not insert
any wire or metal objects through the vent and air intake entry. Keep the
induction heating equipment clean at all times to prevent insects and pests
from getting into the equipment.
8. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction on the use
of this appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
