Maintenance Tips

• Clean glass surface after each use: Wipe the black glass-ceramic top with a soft cloth and mild detergent to prevent grease buildup and maintain efficient heat transfer.
• Avoid abrasive pads & harsh chemicals: Protect the sealed glass top and stainless housing—scratches or chemical damage can reduce lifespan and performance.
• Keep air intake & grease filter clean: Regularly check and clean filters to ensure proper airflow and prevent overheating during heavy commercial use.
• Use compatible induction cookware only: Pan detection technology requires magnetic cookware—improper pans reduce efficiency and may not activate heating.
• Inspect sealed top & edges: The fully sealed surface prevents moisture ingress—check for cracks or damage to avoid internal component issues.
• Keep control panel & display dry: Clean TFT display and controls gently to maintain responsiveness and avoid electrical damage.
• Avoid overheating & empty operation: Built-in auto shut-off protects the unit, but proper use ensures longer component life.
• Schedule periodic professional servicing: Check internal electronics, sensors, and power connections for consistent high-performance operation (3120–3600W output).
