Installation

• Installation must conform to all applicable codes. Improper installation will void the manufacturer’s warranty.
• Do not obstruct or reduce the airflow of the ventilation openings on the sides, bottom, or rear of the unit. Blocking airflow could cause the unit to overheat.
• Do not install near any combustible surfaces. There must be a minimum of 4″ between the induction range and any non-combustible surface to allow sufficient airflow around the unit.
• There must be at least ¾” between the bottom of the induction range and the surface.
• Avoid placing it on soft surfaces that could restrict the airflow to the bottom of the unit.
• There must be at least 12″ of clearance on the sides and back from combustible surfaces.
• Do not operate this product in high-heat environments. Avoid placing this product near gas equipment.
• Do not use an extension cord with plug and cord models.
• This product conforms to UL-197 standards and requires it to be under an exhaust hood. A vertical distance of not less than 48″ shall be provided between the top of the appliance and filters or any other combustible material. Exhaust installation must conform to applicable codes.
• As a precaution, persons using a pacemaker should stand back 12″ from an operating unit.
• Studies have shown that the induction element will not disrupt a pacemaker.
• Keep all credit cards, driver’s licenses, and other items with a magnetic strip away from an operating unit.
• The unit’s magnetic field might damage the information on these strips.

Functions & Advantages

The system of induction cooking

• The induction cooking plate and the cookware placed on AVANTCO 177IC3500P 3500 Watt Induction Range build up one unit by reason of electromagnetism.
• The emerging energy will change into heat directly at the bottom of the cookware.
• It is not necessary to preheat the induction cooking plate. When connected, it is in “Standby Mode” without any power consumption.

Usable & Non-Usable Utensils

• Steel or cast iron, enameled iron, stainless steel, flat-bottom pans/pots with a diameter from 4¾ inches to 10¼ inches. Pan/pot with 9″ bottom diameter recommended.
• Heat-resistant glass, ceramic, copper, and aluminum pans/pots. Rounded-bottom pans/pots with a bottom measuring less than.
• Heat is generated at the bottom of the cookware and immediately directed into the food. The energy is
  absorbed immediately into the cookware. This guarantees extremely high cooking speed.
• High effectiveness during parboiling and minimum power consumption during cooking reduces total energy consumption up to 30%.
• Precise controlling (by 2 different adjustable functions) guarantees quick and tightly focused heat input.
• The induction cooking plate does not stay hot as long as standard cooking plates (easy cleaning).
