Using the ceramic hob
Before first use
IMPORTANT: You should clean the ceramic hob surface (see
“Cleaning and maintenance” section).
oYou should switch on one cooking zone at a time for 5 minutes
at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new
smell that exists and evaporate any humidity that has formed on
the heating elements during transit.
oDo not burn off more than one zone at once.
oYou must place a saucepan filled half full with cold water on
each zone as you burn it off. Otherwise the induction zone will
not operate.
11

Touch controls
oAll operations are performed by means of the touch controls that
can be found on the control panel.
oThe controls respond to touch so you do not need to add any
pressure.
oYou should use the ball of your finger not the tip when using the
controls.
oA beep will sound each time a touch is registered.
oYou should ensure that the controls are kept clean, dry and that
no objects such as utensils or cloths cover them. Even a thin film
of water may make the controls difficult to operate.
Switching the hob on
oWhen the hob is connected to a power supply, an audible signal
will sound. All of the cooking zone indicators will show “-”. The
hob has now entered stand-by mode.
oPress the ON/OFF button.
12

Switching on a zone and setting a power level
IMPORTANT: A zone must be selected within 1 minute of turning the
hob on. oMake sure that the bottom of the pan and
the surface of the hob are clean and dry
before placing a suitable pan on the
cooking zone that you wish to use.
oPress the cooking zone selection button of
the cooking zone that you want to use. An
indicator next to the relevant button will
flash.
oSelect the power level for the cooking
zone that you have selected using the
slider control. If you do not choose a
heat setting within 1 minute of turning
the hob on, the hob will switch off
automatically.
13
oSliding the slider control to the right
will increase the power level while
sliding the slider control to the left will
decrease the power level. The power
level will show in the relevant display.
oYou can alter the power level at any time during cooking using
the slider control.
If the display flashes with the symbol shown opposite,
alternatively with the heat setting, this means that:
You have not placed a pan on the correct cooking zone or,
The pan you are using is not suitable for induction cooking or,
The pan is too small or not properly centred on the cooking
zone.

oNo heating will take place unless there is a suitable pan on the
cooking zone. The display will automatically turn off after 2
minutes if no suitable pan is placed on it.
Power levels
oFor a general guide to cooking various foods at the different
power levels please refer to the table below.
oPlease note that this table should be viewed as a guide only and
that other factors such as cookware, weight and amount of food
and personal preference will all influence the power level
required.
Power
Level Recommended Use
1 - 2 oDelicate warming of small amounts of food.
oMelting chocolate, butter and foods that burn
quickly.
oGentle simmering.
oSlow warming.
3 - 4 oReheating.
oRapid simmering.
oCooking rice.
5 - 6 oCooking pancakes.
7 - 8 oSautéing.
oCooking pasta.
9 oStir-frying.
oSearing.
oBringing soup to the boil.
oBoiling water.
Switching off a zone
oPress the cooking zone selection button of
the cooking zone that you want to switch off.
oSlide the slider control to the left to decrease
the power level until it reaches the lowest
position. The display should show power level
“0”.
oAfter a few seconds, the cooking zone will
switch off.
14

oAn “H” symbol will show in the cooking zone
indicator until the surface has cooled down to a
safe temperature (see the section on the
“residual heat indicator” for further information).
Switching the hob off
Once you have switched off all of the cooking zones, you should switch
the hob off. oPress the ON/OFF button.
oIt is possible to turn the hob off at any time by
pressing the ON/OFF button.
15
Residual heat indicator
oAfter a zone is switched off, the corresponding
cooking zone indicator will show a letter “H”. This
means that the temperature of the zone is over
60°C and is therefore still high enough to cause
injury.
oIMPORTANT: The residual heat indicator will disappear if your
mains supply is cut. Care should be taken in case the surface
temperature is still high.
Pan sensor
Each zone has a sensor on it, so it can detect the presence of a pan.
oThe sensor is fine-tuned to detect a pan being placed on it. The
pan should be one size smaller than the nominal diameter of the
zone. oIf after placing a pan on a cooking zone and
selecting that cooking zone, a “U” shaped symbol
appears on the cooking zone indicator, this means
that the pan is either the incorrect size or shape.
Or it could be made from a material that is inappropriate for use
on an induction zone hob.
oIf a cooking zone is selected but no pan is detected, the pan
sensor system will check for the presence of a pan

approximately every few seconds. If no pan is detected after 2
minutes the hob will automatically switch off
oYou should check that your pans are suitable for use on an
induction zone hob (see the pan manufacturer’s trademark or
instructions).

an induction zone hob:-

oThe bottom of the pans should be as flat and thick as possible.
oCertain types of cookware may result in a noise being made
when being used on an induction zone hob. This does not mean
that there is an appliance fault.
oIMPORTANT: You should make sure that all pans are placed in
the centre of the induction zone that you are using.

function can be used for any cooking zone.
