Power Sharing; Operational Noises - Kenmore INDUCTION COOKTOP Use & Care Manual

Setting Cooktop Controls

Power Sharing

The cooktop is equipped with five
cooking zones within three heating
sections: right, left and center. Each
section is powered by one induction
inverter. The two cooking zones in the
right and left section share the power of
one inverter. The center section has its
own inverter.
If you are cooking in both zones of a
heating section, the last zone that
began to heat will cook at the power
setting you selected. The other zone
will experience a slight decrease from
its power setting.
Power Sharing Tips: Remember to
select the power setting last for the
cooking zone you want to maintain at
full setting heat. To maintain full setting
heat for two items, place one item on a
zone in one section, and the other item
on a zone in another section.

Operational Noises

The electronic processes involved with Induction Cooking create some unusual background noises. These noises are
normal and part of the Induction Cooking process.
Please note that these noises are more noticeable while cooking at the Power BOOST level. Very loud noises are not part
of normal Induction Cooking.
General Care & Cleaning
Cleaning Various Parts of Your Cooktop
Before cleaning any part of the cooktop, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the cooktop is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS
AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANINGS NOW WILL REDUCE THE DIFFICULTY AND
EXTENT OF A MAJOR CLEANING LATER.

How to Clean
Clean with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and cloth. Do
not use cleaners with high concentrations of chlorides or chlorines. Do not use
harsh scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners that are especially made for
cleaning stainless steel. Always be sure to rinse the cleaners off from the surface as
bluish stains may occur during heating that cannot be removed.
