TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE & CUSTOMER SERVICE
If after reviewing the troubleshooting guide the problem is not resolved, do not attempt to repair
yourself. Contact your dealer or call our Customer Service Department at 1-800-227-0196 for
additional information.
After plugging in the power cord, the Power Indicator light does not illuminate
and/or the exhaust fan is not running.
• The plug may be loose in the electrical outlet
• Check your circuit breaker. It may be inoperative.
The power indicator light is on, but the fan is not running and the cookware is
not heating up.
• The cookware is unsuitable and it is preventing operation (see Selecting the Proper
Cookware)
• The pan needs to be centered on the ceramic plate
• The ceramic plate may be cracked
The induction cooktop suddenly stops heating during operation and shuts down.
• The overheating sensor detected an excessive high surface temperature and caused it to
automatically shutdown. Heating empty cookware may cause this.
• The air inlet or exhaust fan is blocked and caused it to overheat
• The unit was accidentally unplugged
• The fuse or circuit breaker has malfunctioned
Error code guide:
If an error code appears in the LED display, follow the instructions for the particular problem.
E0 = Cookware Sensor Detection
Proper cookware is not detected.
Remedy: Place correct cookware back on the cooktop within 30 seconds to reset. Unplug
from the power receptacle. Wait one minute and connect power supply and restart unit,
assuring first that proper cookware is placed on cooktop.
E01 = Internal Overheat Sensor
Internal temperature exceeds operation limit, cooling fan malfunction, or inadequate ventilation
for the cooktop.
Remedy: Unplug from the power receptacle. Make sure that the fan is at least 4” away from
any obstruction. Wait 10 minutes for the cooktop and cookware to cool down, and then plug
it back into the 120V power receptacle. Make sure the fan is running.
E02 = Glass Cooktop Overheat Sensor
Glass cooking surface temperature exceeds the limit of 450°F (232°C), and shuts down after
one minute.
Remedy: Unplug from the power receptacle. Wait 10 minutes for cooktop and cookware to
cool down and reconnect to the power receptacle. Restart, checking that the cooling/exhaust
fan is running and at least 4” away from any obstruction. If the error continues, try using
another size of cookware.
E03 = Incorrect Voltage Sensor
The 120V input power supply is too high or too low voltage and shuts down after one minute.
Remedy: Unplug from the power receptacle. Using voltage sensor, verify that the voltage is
110/120V AC. If not, switch electrical outlets or correct before operating the unit.
Note: If any of the above remedies fail to correct the problem, please contact Customer Service
at 1-800-227-0196.

Commonly asked questions
What are the advantages of using an induction cooktop?
The induction cooktop plugs into a standard 110/120-volt outlet. With 1800 watts of power,
these cooktops are nearly 50% more powerful than gas stoves and heat nearly twice as fast as
electric cooking elements, yet they do not require high amperage electrical lines or 220-volt
power.
Is induction cooking more efficient than gas?
The induction cooktop is 83% energy efficient. Gas burners are only 30-35% efficient and butane
burners cost $1.65 per hour to operate. Operating an induction cooktop costs only 12 cents per
hour.
Is induction cooking safe?
The induction cooktop creates heat only in the cooking pan. There is no open flame or hot
cooking element. The ceramic top stays cool, except where it is in contact with the cooking pan.
How much electrical power is needed?
All single burner induction units designed for the U.S. market are capable of operating efficiently
on a standard 110/120-volt outlet. However, since each unit will draw about (15 amps), it is
strongly recommended that a dedicated outlet be provided for each individual unit being used.
What type of pans can I use?
Pans made from ferrous metals such as cast iron, sheet enameled steel, or magnetic stainless
steel work very well (see Section 3).
How does electric and induction cooking compare?
Induction units place the electrical energy directly into the cooking pan. Resistive electric cooking
elements use energy to heat the elements and then through conduction, the cooking pan gradually
gets hot. Resistive elements are very inefficient and not responsive. Induction cooking is very
rapid and responsive to temperature control changes and even faster and more efficient than
gas cooking.
Is it easy to use?
The rapid heating of the pan makes warming, sautéing, frying, and pasta cooking fast and easy
to do. With no open flame or heating elements, there is no burned-on food to clean. Just wipe
the ceramic surface.
