Off, then remove plug from wall outlet.
13. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
14. Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop –If cooktop should
break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate
the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock.
15. Clean Cooktop with Caution –If a wet sponge or cloth
is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful
to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce
noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
16. Any servicing should be performed by an authorized
service representative.
17. This appliance is intended for household use only.
18. A short power supply cord (or detachable power supply
cord) should be used to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
19. Longer detachable power supply cords or extension
cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.
20. If a longer detachable power supply cord or extension
cord is used:
a) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or
Page 4 SUMMIT APPLIANCE
extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance; and
b) The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped over.
21.This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any
way.
22.Built-in mounting should follow the directions in the
installation instructions.
23.To reduce the risk of fire, do not place unit over or near
any portion of a heating or cooking appliance.
24.To reduce the risk of fire, do not store anything directly

Before Using the Appliance
Use a separate socket. The use of an extension cord
could result in overloading the circuit.
Place the appliance on a flat surface and keep it away
from the wall and from other articles. Leave at least 2"
of clearance on the sides and 6" at the rear. When the
air vents are blocked, the internal temperature of the
appliance rises and this may result in the unit
automatically shutting off during cooking.
Never heat an empty pot or pan. The appliance will
cease to operate and could be damaged as a result.
Remember to turn off the appliance after use. If not, the
ventilating fan will continue to operate, resulting in a
waste of energy. (Normally, when the unit is turned off,
the fan continues to operate for 3 minutes before
shutting off automatically.)
Keep the appliance away from a gas range or electric
oven. If the surrounding temperature is high the unit will
stop heating.
Be sure to wipe off any water droplets from the bottom
of the cooking pot before heating. If not, the boiling
water may splatter and burn someone.

How to Use the Induction Cooktop
1. Center a suitable pot or pan on the cooktop and
plug in
the appliance. The Power On LED (Light-Emitting Diode)
will start to flash.
2. Press the ON/OFF switch to turn on the unit. The
Power ON LED will be on steady.
The ON/OFF switch controls power to the appliance,
while the HEATING/TEMP and TIMER buttons control
the various functions. The digital Display shows
information about the functions.
3. When the Induction Cooktop is turned on, the HEATING
function will be displayed, and that LED will be lit. If you
want to use this function, press the ◄and ►buttons to
adjust the HEATING rate to any of 7 levels, from 500W
to 1800W.
4. Press TEMP if you want to set the temperature. The
default temperature setting is 212°F (100°C), but this
can be adjusted by pressing ◄or ►. The temperature
range of the Induction Cooktop is 140°F to 464°F (60°C
to 240°C).
5. Press TIMER to set the cooking time. The TIMER LED
will be lit and the Display will flash the time. Adjust the
TIMER by pressing ◄or ►(the
range is from 0 to 120
minutes). When the TIMER button has not been pressed
for a few seconds, the Display will stop flashing and then
will automatically shift to either TEMP or HEATING. The
corresponding LED will be lit. To see the countdown
time on the Display, press TIMER again and the
remaining time will flash briefly.
WARNING: The appliance will be HOT during use.
6. The unit will automatically shut off after the set time has
elapsed.
NOTE: For frying in oil, used the TEMP function rather than
HEATING.
