About Induction
Benefits of Induction Cooking
• What’s different? - The source of “heat” is magnetic induction that causes
the utensil to heat-up directly, rather than the cooking surface.
• Because magnetic induction causes the utensil to become the heat source,
it does not heat the air around the utensil the way conventional heat sources
do - so your kitchen stays cooler.
• Heats much faster and more efciently than a standard electric coil. The
Rena Ware Induction Cooker can boil water twice as fast as a conventional
electric coil of the same power, thereby using half the electricity.
• Excellent control - heating levels adjust easily and quickly. You have the
controllability of gas with the energy efciency of induction.
• Light-weight and portable - goes with you from the kitchen to the dining
room - great for entertaining!
How Induction Cooking Works
Your Rena Ware Induction Cooker works by generating a magnetic eld. When
an induction compatible cooking utensil is placed in this magnetic eld, the eld
transfers its energy into the utensil causing it to heat. By raising or lowering the
strength of the magnetic eld, you control the heat generated by the utensil.
When you use Rena Ware cookware with your Induction Cooker, you will
experience the benets of our healthy cooking system combined with the benets
of induction cooking. Cooking doesn’t get much better!
Safety Precautions
• IF YOU OR SOMEONE IN YOUR FAMILY HAS A PACEMAKER, CONSULT
WITH A PHYSICIAN BEFORE USING. Due to high operating frequencies, a
pacemaker may not function properly due to electromagnetic transmissions.
• To avoid the possibility of re or sparking, do not place aluminum foil, paper
towels, etc., on the Ceramic Plate during cooking.
• Do not touch the Ceramic Plate immediately after cooking - it may be hot from
residual heat from the utensil.

Operation
Your Induction Cooker is easy to use. First, read all Operating Instructions, and
then take a few minutes to practice using the cooker. You can start by boiling
some water in a covered utensil. Adjust the temperature settings, and use the
warming function and the Timer.
IMPORTANT NOTES
• Do not place or store heavy objects (27kg/60lb) on the ceramic plate.
• Be sure to avoid exposing the unit to excessive moisture; never immerse
the unit in water, overll utensils, or pour liquids onto the unit. Clean up spills
immediately and allow the unit to dry completely before using.
• Do not block the cool air intake at the front of the unit or the warm air
exhaust at the back of the unit. Allow at least 13cm (5 in.) clearance for
proper ventilation. The screens covering the intake and exhaust areas should
be cleaned frequently to prevent the build-up of dirt or grease which can
cause the unit to overheat.
• Plug the electrical cord into a wall outlet. Do not plug anything else into
the same outlet. Use of a Surge Protector is recommended because power
uctuations can damage the unit.
• Never leave an empty utensil unattended. Overheating and damage may
occur.
• Do not use outside in a wet environment.
• Do not press buttons using sharp objects or ngernails - it could damage the
protective membrane.
• Dropping or handling the unit roughly will damage the electrical components.
Handle with care.
• The Power Light will ash and the unit will beep if the power is turned on
when there is no utensil on the unit, if a utensil is used that is unsuitable for
induction cooking, or if a smaller utensil is not properly centered.
• If you remove the utensil from the unit for more than 1 minute, the power will
turn off automatically.
• After turning off the unit, the internal cooling fan will continue to run for
several moments before automatically shutting down.
Failure to follow the handling and operating instructions in the Use & Care
manual will void the warranty.
How to Use
1. Place the unit on a at, even surface.
2. Center a cooking utensil on top of the Ceramic Plate. An improperly centered
utensil can cause and excessive power load on the internal components.
3. To begin cooking, press the Power Button once. The Power Indicator Light
will ash to indicate the unit is on. Press the up or down arrow once and the
unit will automatically begin at the medium (3) setting.
4. Press the Increase Temp ( ) button to increase the heat, or the Reduce

5. To turn off press the Power button again. The Power Indicator Light will go
out to indicate the unit is off.
Preheating - Use the medium high (4) setting for most preheating.
• Preheating will occur quickly, so be sure to watch the utensil carefully.
• The utensil will be pre-heated properly when a few water droplets “dance”
when dropped into the utensil’s surface.
• Lower the temperature setting if water droplets dry up immediately.
Timer - The timer automatically turns the unit off after a selected amount of
time.
• After selecting a heat temperature setting, press the timer button ( ) to
select the number of minutes (up to 199 minutes).
• Adjust the amount of time using the up or down arrows ( ). Pushing
arrows will adjust time in one minute intervals, holding down the button will
adjust the time by ten minute intervals.
• If you make a mistake, press the timer button ( ) again to cancel. Press the
timer button ( ) a second time to reactivate the timer.
• Once you enter the correct number of minutes, the minutes will ash 4 times
and the timer will start.
• The unit will continue to cook at the selected temperature level for the
number of minutes you choose before the power automatically turns-off.
• Never leave the unit unattended when it is heating a utensil. The warm
function is not a substitute for a slow cooker.
Warming - the warm setting will keep foods warm.
The temperature that will be maintained will be largely dependant on the size
and construction of the utensil, as well as the volume and moisture content of
the food. There are many variables that can affect the temperature, so foods
should not be left unattended unless they will not reach a boiling temperature. If
the temperature is too high, the moisture will be lost, food will burn, and the unit
will overheat.
• To switch from cooking to warming, push the down arrow only until the warm
light is lit.
• The warm function is not a substitution for a slow cooker.
Helpful Tips
• For utensils with especially thick bases, you may need to use a higher
temperature setting for preheating, cooking, or warming.
• For quicker results when boiling water, always cover the utensil.
• For best results when greaseless frying, sautéing, stir-frying, cooking eggs, or
browning meats, etc., always preheat the utensil.

Maintenance and Storage
Cleaning Tips
• Allow the Ceramic Plate to cool completely and always unplug the unit before
cleaning.
• Never immerse the unit in water. To clean, wipe off with a moist cloth or
sponge and mild liquid detergent.
• Check the air inlets to ensure that they have not become clogged which will
reduce airow and cause overheating. The screens covering the inlets should
be removed frequently for cleaning.
• Never use strong solvents or abrasives to clean.
Storage
• Always unplug the unit when not in use.
• Store the unit horizontally, or vertically to save space.
• To avoid scratches, protect the nish of your Induction Cooker by wrapping it
with a soft cloth before storing.
Cooking the Rena Ware Way
Healthy Cooking
Rena Ware’s healthy cooking system lets you prepare delicious meals while
retaining important nutrients in foods, often lost using other cooking methods.
Our “water-less” cooking method locks moisture in the utensil so foods cook
in their natural juices. Foods taste better, look better, and are better for you
and your family. We recommend using Rena Ware utensils with your Induction
Cooker for the best “water-less” cooking results.
Do not attempt to cook the “water-less” way using anything other than Rena
Ware utensils.
“Water-less” Cooking Basics
• Use the correct sized utensil - utensil should be 2/3 full for best results.
• To save vitamins and minerals, don’t peel fruits and vegetables. First lightly
scrub and wash, cut into pieces if desired, then place in the utensil.
• Rinse food in the utensil using cold water and drain until water is clear,
leaving 1 to 4 tablespoons of water in the utensil. Use more water for denser
foods.
• Start on the medium high (4) setting.
• Cover and cook with vent open until the Nutri 3 Sensor whistles. Close the
vent and spin the cover. The water seal has formed when the cover spins
freely.
• After water seal forms, reduce the temperature setting to Warm. A semi-
vacuum will form locking avor and nutrients in foods.
NOTE: The Induction Cooker will cycle on and off on the Warm setting. This is
normal. If the Warm setting is too high to maintain a water seal, you may need
to turn the unit off to nish cooking.
