The Bajaj 140TS Induction Cooktop comes with 7 convenient pre-set cooking functions:

• Curry
• Dosa/Chapati
• Fry
• Milk/Tea
• Pressure Cook
• Soup
• Saute

Select the appropriate menu for your dish. The cooktop will automatically manage the power and duration for optimal results.

Compatible Cookware

For induction cooking, only use cookware made of ferromagnetic materials. These include:

• Cast iron pots and pans
• Steel or stainless steel pots and pans (ensure they are induction-compatible, often indicated by a coil symbol on the base)
• Enamelled iron or steel pots and pans

To check if your cookware is compatible, hold a magnet to the bottom of the pan. If the magnet sticks, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. Do not use glass, ceramic, aluminum, or copper cookware unless specifically designed for induction.

Cleaning and Maintenance

1. Before Cleaning: Always unplug the cooktop from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Glass Surface: Wipe the glass surface with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for ceramic or induction cooktops. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
3. Control Panel: Wipe the control panel with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use excessive water or allow liquids to seep into the controls.
4. Exterior: Clean the exterior housing with a soft, damp cloth.
5. Do Not Immerse: Never immerse the cooktop in water or any other liquid.
6. Avoid Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the surface.
