your pot will work on induction.

General safety regulations

The product you have purchased is a
state of the art induction cooktop. It
adheres to all of the latest safety and
technology standards; however, as with
any electric appliance, there are some
potential risks. Only operate this induc-
tion cooktop in accordance with the
instructions provided and only for its in-
tended household use.
Attention: In order to prevent possible
injuries or electric shock, please observe
the following:
• Never touch the induction cooktop
and the power plug with wet hands.
• Be sure to operate the unit on a flat,
level, non-metallic surface.
• Do not connect the induction cook-
top to the same outlet with other
household appliances such as mi-
crowaves, etc. as it could overload
the outlet and trip a circuit breaker.
• If using an extension cord to connect
the cooktop, please note that a dam-
aged extension cord can cause the
unit to malfunction. Always check
your extension cord for damage and

be sure it is compliant with the re-
quired voltage. Be sure not to place
cord where people can trip over it.
• Never attempt to unplug the induc-
tion cooktop by pulling on the power
cable.
• Do not move the induction cooktop
during cooking or with hot cookware
on top of it.
• Do not place any empty cookware
on the induction cooktop while it is functioning. An empty piece of
cookware will heat up very rapidly.
Although the cooktop has an over-
heating protection, the hot cookware
can still cause material damage or
personal injury.
• Do not place any metal objects on
the induction cooktop (other than the
cookware you intend to cook in).
• Check the power cable for damage
from time to time. Never operate the
induction cooktop when the cable is
damaged. If the power cable shows
any signs of defect, let a qualified
electrician repair it. Do not let the
cord hang over the edge of a coun-
tertop or table.
