Customers pick a menu themselves; the machine meters the water and runs the timer, turning out a bowl in 3.5–5 min without anyone standing at the counter. It suits 24-hour convenience stores, petrol stations and highway service areas, hotel and guesthouse front desks, self-service noodle shops and Korean barbecue restaurants, factory and school canteen counters, internet cafes and cinemas. Placement can be adapted to the store layout. ## Heating and power - 2200W total power, of which the induction cooker draws 1200W - 1.3L water tank - True induction boiling rather than soaking noodles in hot water — the noodles stay springy and the broth is properly infused The induction plate works by magnetic eddy-current heating: high-frequency current through a coil creates a magnetic field, the field induces eddy currents in the ferrous base of the pot, and the pot itself heats up fast before passing heat to the food. ## Three preset menus M1 / M2 / M3 are selected with one key. Water volume and time for each menu are preset at the factory: - M1 dry mixed noodles: 400 mL, 3 min 40 sec - M2 soup noodles: 450 mL, 4 min - M3 thick noodles: 500 mL, 5 min In standby, hold Water + M2 to enter manager mode and adjust water volume and heating time for each menu, then save. The machine includes a descaling function; descale periodically according to local water hardness. ## Operating sequence Place the container → select a menu → touch start → cooking → done. Take the bowl out when the countdown reaches zero. On first power-on the machine fills automatically and heats for roughly 8 minutes until the water reaches 83°C. Operation is only enabled after that initial preheat. ## Continuous operation (container left in place) - Add water: hold the water key, release to stop - Heat again: press the heat key; each press adds 30 seconds - Removing the container during filling or heating stops the cycle automatically; putting it back starts over - Putting the container back within 3 seconds is treated as normal; beyond 3 seconds the automatic programme exits ## Compatible containers The specification table lists induction-compatible paper bowls and iron or steel pots. The detail pages also list heatable disposable bowls: gold foil bowls, foil trays, foil-lined paper bowls and stainless steel bowls. The paper bowls have a foil lining that conducts heat quickly and are thrown away after use, which removes dishwashing labour, water and waste-water charges. If the container is empty or food sticks to the bottom, the food may scorch locally. Always put eggs and seasoning on top of the noodles. ## What it can cook Beyond instant noodles, it also handles instant congee, dumplings and wontons, rice noodles and vermicelli. ## Water supply Dual inlet: connect a water purifier for filtered water, or use bottled purified water. Direct connection to mains tap water is not recommended. ## Safety - Automatic standby safety mode: if an unsuitable pot is placed on the plate, or the pot is removed and not replaced with a suitable one within 1 minute, the induction cooker switches off - The tank must hold more than 1 litre before the machine dispenses water; with no water it beeps and waits until water is added - The plate and heating area stay hot after use — never run the machine dry, and do not touch the plate after cooking - Severe overheating triggers a shutdown; restart after the machine has cooled ## Body and fittings stainless steel housing with spray coating, with a black crystal glass induction panel. Overall size 250 × 480 × 500 mm, net weight 8.5 kg, exposed power cord approx. 1400 mm. - Main power switch on the body to cut power for electrical maintenance - Drain and vent ports: the drain removes waste water, the vent releases excess gas so the body does not overheat - Rear ventilation grille with a built-in fan keeps the machine cool while running ## How many bowls one tank serves The tank holds 1.3 L. At 450 mL per bowl on the M2 soup setting, a full tank serves about 2.9 bowls. That is why we recommend a water purifier or bottled water: with an external supply the machine serves continuously with no tank limit. Tank-only operation suits staffed stores where someone tops it up. Note that below 1 litre the machine stops dispensing and beeps. For unattended operation, always connect an external water supply. ## How customers pay The machine does not include a payment module — payment is handled by the store. Either staff take the order at the counter, or a payment QR code sits beside the machine and customers pay before pressing the menu themselves. - Staff order: suited to convenience stores and canteen counters, where payment and serving both happen at the counter - Self-service QR: a payment code beside the machine, customers pay then press M1/M2/M3 themselves — works for unattended hours - Mixed: staff during the day, self-service QR at night, with no change to the machine If you plan fully unattended operation, confirm the payment-to-serving flow with us before ordering and we will suggest a setup that matches your store process.
