4. Installation Falcon induction cookers are of the plug & play type, which is ready for use after power and water supplies (if necessary) are connected. 4.1 Heat Radiation Requirements • Adequate space shall be left in the back and bottom of the unit to allow free flow of air. Improper installation will result in blockage or decrease of airflow and poor radiation of heat; • The air inlet and outlet should be at least 100mm from any peripheral object (such as wall and floor); • The inlet cold air should not be mixed with the outlet hot air; • The inlet air temperature should not exceed 40 ; • The induction cooker (steamer) should be away from other heat sources (such as gas cooker or halogen stove). In case several induction cookers are used, they should be at least 100mm apart from each other. Besides, it should be ensured that there is sufficient supply of cold air and the hot air discharged by cookers will not enter other cookers. 4.2 Fire Prevention All objects in contact with the cooker (steamer) should be made of non‐inflammable materials. 4.3 Requirements on Electrical Connection • Check and make sure that the power supply is consistent with the rating on the nameplate of the product; • The electrical connection must comply with existing national and local regulations; • The electrical cable of the product must be connected to the power supply with an appropriate plug; • In case leakage protection is adopted, the maximum circuit‐breaking current is 30mA. ...
5. Troubleshooting Warning: There is high voltage inside! Do not open the cooker! The cooker can only be opened by authorized servicing personnel. In case the glass‐ceramic panel breaks or cracks, immediately switch off the cooker and disconnect the power. Never touch any exposed part inside the cooker. When malfunction occurs, the indicator will show some information as follows: Code Meaning Remarks No pan ‐ Place proper pan on the cooker; E–01 ‐ Consult professional personnel Over‐temperature in power ‐ Cooling Needed or E–03 module, shutdown ‐ Consult professional personnel; Damage of power potentiometer, ‐ Set the power level not set at “0”position before or the power level is not set at the use. E–05 “0” position. ‐ Problem of the power control, Consult professional personnel E–07 IGBT temperature sensor error ‐ Consult professional personnel E–10 Too low voltage of power supply ‐ Check the power supply Over‐temperature in pan, ‐ Check if the cooling fan of the coils works properly. shutdown E–12 ‐ Oil temperature in the pan too high. Lower the power level. E–13 Temperature sensor error ‐ Consult professional personnel ...

7. Safety Instructions 7.1 Risks of Negligence of Safety Information This manual contains safety warnings and precautions on the installation, commissioning and operation of the induction cooker. Negligence of such information may lead to harms to people, environment and equipment, as well as potential risks as follows: Electric shock; Overheating of wok/pan; and Overheating of cooker surface. 7.2 Safety Notes The safety instructions contained in this manual, the applicable national regulations on the prevention of accidents as well as user’s internal safety rules must be strictly observed. 7.3 Notice to User • To prevent electrical shocks, the installation and electrical connection of the induction cooker must be performed by a qualified contractor as per national and local regulations. • The heating zone has high temperature. To avoid injury (scalding), do not touch this area. • To avoid dry heating (glowing) of wok/pan, don’t leave the appliance on unattended. For the sake of safety, switch the power off. • To prevent accidents caused by automatic heating of wok/pan, switch off the cooker before removing the wok/pan. Do not rely on the pan detector. This ensures that anyone who wants to use the cooker must switch it on him/herself. • Don’t insert any piece of paper, cardboard, cloth, etc. between the wok/pan and the heating area, as this may initiate a fire. • Do not place metallic objects such as kitchen utensils, cutlery, cans, aluminium foil and keys on the hob surface within the cooking zone because such things can be heated up quickly. • Do not wear watches and rings as these objects can be heated up when in close proximity to the hob surface. ...
• The contact surface of wok/pan must match that of the glass‐ceramic panel; otherwise, It may lead to reduced performance, malfunction and even damage to the induction cooker. Therefore, only those woks/pans supplied or recommended by the manufacturer can be used. (Wok diameter: 360mm, Minimal pan diameter: 220mm, ferrous or compound steel bottom) • Don’t place credit cards, phone cards, passenger cards, cassette tapes or other magnetic objects on the surface of the induction cooker. • There is air cooling system in the induction cooker. To avoid overheating induced shutdown, do not block the air vents. • Do not let any liquid enter the cooker. Do not spill water or food over the wok/pan. Do not flush the cooker with water. Do not clean the cooker with a steam cleaner. • In case the glass‐ceramic panel breaks or cracks, immediately switch off the cooker and disconnect the power.
