Product Manuals
A: As someone else posted - this is NOT an issue. I have a second post below with a photo of my clamp meter thinking this was a huge problem. It is NOT A PROBLEM at all! I purchased the little meter shown below for $25 from you know where. You can see it measures "Power Factor". This is the important piece, and not understanding this caused me some alarm and expense. There's a great article from the blog greengumption dot co dot uk slash 2013/03/induction-hobs-the-question-of-standby-and-the-power-factor/ that explains what is happening. I'm disappointed I didn't find this before I put up my original post. So - here's the correction. Due to this concept called Power Factor, your induction stove (and a lot of other technology) may register an amp load on a standard clamp meter wildly different than what it is actually using. This is the "Apparent Power". Without knowing the Power Factor, you are unable to calculate the "Actual Power" used. Setting up this little meter below, you can see my cooktop was on for 10 hours overnight in it's idle state. It looks like it's pulling 2.215 amps, but with a Power Factor of 0.01, it is only using 3.5 watts. This is the actual power. If it were really using 2 amps at 240 volts, this would be over 500 watts. But the proof is in the kWh used shown on the photo, just 0.032 kWh over 10 hours. Since this is a 240v appliance, that's actually 0.064 kWh, or 0.0064 kWh for every hour the stove is on. Let's math that out: 0.0064 kWh x 24 = 0.1536 kWh per day 0.1536 kWh x 30 = 4.6 kWh per month 4.6 kWh x $0.12 per kW = $0.55 per month $0.55 x 12 months = about $6.65 a year I also validated this by pulling meter usage from smartmetertexas dot com which has 2 years of historical data in 15 min usage increments. I looked at midnight to 6 am usage (when the household is sleeping, so everything should be "idle") for the same period year over year before I installed the cooktop and after. Did the same for when I had the wireless timer setup (photo below) installed. After a lot of calculations, I came up with about 4.5 kWh a month difference with the cooktop installed... almost exactly what the little meter with Power Factor is telling me. So - 2 different data collection methods that match outcomes. Now, we could quibble over whether an "off" appliance should be drawing any electricity. Regardless of that, this is well within the realm of reasonable, and about 100X (literally) less than I thought with my very misunderstood first reading with my clamp meter. I hope this helps some folks that consider themselves handy and have some tools like a clamp meter. Don't freak out like I did! Your cooktop is operating quite normally and NOT sucking an enormous amount of electricity when it is off!
Q: Cooktop timer off has d0 and beeps sound that will not turn off. How do I rectify this problem?
A: This is super anoything but its a safty feature. If the controls get wet and stay wet for a certain amount of time it can get locked in the d0 mode, if it gets locked in the d0 mode you have to switch the circuit breaker for your kitching off for 30 sec then back on to reset. If you clean the counter top make sure you put it (child lock) mode so this wont happen.
Q: Just want to know which brand of non-stick cookware will work for this cook top?
A: I went with the "Infinite Circulon Hard Anodized Nonstick Cookware Set", and am very pleased by it. Please note that not all Circulon Hard Anodized Nonstick sets are induction-compatible. "Infinite" and "Symmetry" are, but "Genesis" and "Contempo" are not.
A: Great question DH! This model has only one timer. ^Jecca
Q: What gauge wire is needs for this cooktop?
A: 8 gauge
A: Sounds like the cooktop may need replacing if you want all of the elements to work. Doubtful a tech could fix this in the field.
A: You must have pans that stick to a magnet on bottom. The stove is great. I had my doubts about it but it's the best.

Good but subpar touch sensors
It’s been 6 months since we got this cooktop to replace an old GE profile. On the good side: looks and design are great, it heats everything really fast, it’s very versatile with one very large burner and the square flex burner. On the not so good side: the beep alarm is not loud enough, the blue LED lights are not as fancy as the pics show, the flex burners are tricky to use and the timer is not easy to use. On the bad side: the touch sensors are not sensitive enough nor are they accurate enough and make it worse the magnetic knob is not any better. It’s a bit pricey compared to other induction cooktop.

Surprisingly
We are loving how quick it heats up water to boil. No joke around a minute for water to boil! Can’t get no faster. Very slick design and easy to use and pair with hood vent and to phone.

Amazing cooktop
Amazing induction cooktop. I was née to induction before this purchase but after some research I decided on the Samsung 36” and I am glad I did. Pros -Looks amazing -Blue lights are great to know which burners are on -heats pots/pans very quickly and evenly -many pot size options Cons - knob control can be sensitive but nothing that would stop me from recommending
