- Features
- Downdraft Ventilation: false (This ventilation system, typically integrated right into the cooktop, pulls smoke and fumes downward in order to ventilate them away from the cooking area. If a range hood is not an option due to your cooktop location or you need more cabinet space above the cooking surface, downdraft ventilation will save space while ensuring smoke and odors are still being ventilated.)

- Induction: true (Induction cooktops use magnetic currents to heat compatible cookware directly instead of warming the cooktop itself, which can allow for faster and more efficient cooking. There is also an added safety benefit because the surface begins to cool when cookware is removed.)
- Cooktop Surface Type: Smoothtop (On electric cooktops, coil elements are typically more durable and tend to provide more evenly conducted heat than smoothtops. However, smoothtops may be easier to clean and have a distinctive streamlined appearance.)

A: The flashing L means that the cooktop is in standby mode. It is normal for the fan to be on from the moment that your plug in the unit until several several minutes after cooking has been completed and you have touched the power icon (circle with verticle line) to turn off the unit. From standby mode, you must put induction-compatible cookware on the cooktop, touch the power icon, touch the function icon (three dots and three horizontal lines), and touch - or + to select a power level or temperature level. (Refer to the table on p. 9 of the manual; stupidly, the display lacks enough digits to show power in watts or temperature in degrees.) I would suggest putting a magnet to the bottom of your cookware. If it doesn't stick, the cookware is incompatible with induction. Even some cookware with a base containing magnetic metal might work. For example, some pots and pans don't have uniform, flat bottom surfaces, and others are composed of layers aluminum and stainless steel, with alumnimum predominating. It's crucial to check the label on the cookware. Please post to let other people know whether it was the cookware, or whether you had to exchange the unit.
Q: Can you buy any type of induction cookware for use with this cooktop?
A: Flat bottom cast iron or stainless steel pans only can be used on this induction cooktop. I suggest getting a magnet if you are unsure if your pan is stainless. If the magnet sticks to the pan it should work. The burner works by heating up the molecules in the steel.
Q: If power cord does not come with unit what type of cord would I need?
A: It comes with a 3-prong power cord. By the way, I love this little cooktop. We are remodeling our kitchen so this cooktop has become invaluable in my make-shift kitchen. I recommend this product!
Q: Will it heat up to 570 degrees? I want to seer steak.
A: No. It will get to above 400 degrees, but once the meat hits the pan it drops to below 250. You cannot effectively sear steak.
Q: Does this cooktop turn off automatically when the pan is removed?
A: Yes, when you remove the pan the machine starts beeping warning you that it is about to shut off.
Q: what is the voltage ?and frecuency :60 hz ?
A: It is 110-60HZ.
A: The cook top is 120v and must be plugged into an outlet.
Q: Does this cooktop come with magnetic pans as in the photo?
A: No, Nothing but the unit itself was included
