To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord plugs or cooker in water (or other liquid substances).
When using any electric appliance used around children, close supervision is strongly suggested.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after a malfunction or if it has been damaged in any manner. Read the seller's guidelines for warranty repairs and returns.
Do not cook on a broken or damaged cooktop as spillovers may penetrate the surface and cre-ate a risk of electric shock.
To avoid potential injury, do not use accessory attachments which aren't recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not let the cord dangle over the edge of the table or counter. Keep the cord away from hot surfaces.
Do not place cooktop on or near: hot gas, electric burner or heated oven.
To prevent accidents and achieve optimal fan ventilation, allow for suﬃcient space around the cooking area.

The power cord provided has been sized accordingly, however, with caution and care extension cords may be used.
- The marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

To prevent accidents and achieve optimal ventilation, allow for suﬃcient space around the cooking area.
This appliance has a polarize plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, the plug will ﬁt on the outlet only one way. If the prongs do not ﬁt fully, reverse the plug. If it still does not ﬁt, contact the seller for warranty support; do not attempt to modify the plug in anyway.
To properly turn oﬀ unit press the Power button.
It is important to be aware that the unit's surface will remain hot for a short period of time after use.

How to Use DOUBLE BURNER

Plug the power plug into a standard outlet.
The Power button will light up and the unit will sound to indicate on.
The device will remain in standby mode, awaiting user direction.
Place ferromagnetic cookware (with water, oil or food already inside) on the center of the glass-ceramic top center.
Now press the Power button on the control panel, this will turn the cooktop on. The power display will blink and sound another indicator.
Press the Heat function key once. The pre-set power level "5" is the default selection as the device turns on.
Using the +/ - keys you can change the settings at any time, ranging from 1- 10. This is considered to be the HEAT function.

Power Invariance Technology
The maximum power of an individual burner level is at setting 10. But, when operating both burners their combined total is level 10, meaning that when operating the two burners at the same time they'll self adjust levels accordingly:

When you increase the power of one side, the power output of the other side will reduce automatically (i.e., one side is at 6, the other burner automatically reduces power to level 4 creating a total of max 10 setting).
If one side of the double burner is using the HEAT function and the other side uses the TEMP settings, the maximum HEAT setting is "5."

Using the Temperature Setting
Using the +/ - keys you can change the temperature settings at any time. Settings range from 150-450 degrees Fahrenheit. (Exact temperatures: 150, 180, 210, 240, 270, 300, 330, 360, 390, 420 and 450 F).

Using the Timer Function

After selecting the HEAT or TEMP mode, press the TIMER button once. The display will show the number "0." Using the +/ - keys you can select the operating time in 5-minute intervals (up to max 150 min.) and reducing 1 minute.
The display will count down the duration in minutes. Once the time is up, the unit sounds and automatically goes into standby mode. To continue cooking, press the Power button and Heat button to restart.
During the timer operation, you can change the timer duration at any time with the arrow keys. The device's built-in memory maintains the HEAT or TEMP setting previously entered.
You can also change the HEAT or TEMP settings without aﬀecting the current timer setting.

Built-In Safety Shut Off

The True Induction cooktop is designed to automatically shut oﬀ after 150 minutes of use. This built-in auto shut oﬀ is a safety feature.
This function occurs for both the HEAT and TEMP settings. The panel displays EE code and sounds indicating this auto-oﬀ setting.
In the event your food requires further cooking, the unit can easily be turned back on and re-set to the desired setting.

Turning Off Unit

When you are ﬁnished cooking, simply press the Power button to turn oﬀ the machine.
Upon completion of cooking, the fan may remain on until the unit is cool.

Compatible Cookware

Induction requires pots and pans that are made of ferrous (meaning magnetic) materials. Check your cookware's retail box for the induction symbol. To tell if your current cookware is compatible with the induction technology, grab a magnet and see if it holds. If your magnet stays then your cookware is ready to be used on the True Induction double burner induction portable cooktop!
Optimal cookware has a ﬂat bottom and a diameter of 4.5" - 10" inches. Round, ﬂat bottom pans give the best results. Pans with warped or curved bottoms will not heat evenly. For wok cooking, use a ﬂat-bottom wok. Do not use a wok with a support ring. Look for this induction image on the retail box:

The following are NOT COMPATIBLE
Heat-resistant glass, ceramic, copper, aluminum pan/pots, round bottomed cookware, or cookware with a base less than 4.5 inches.
