OPERATING YOUR IH 4010 INDUCTION HOB
BEFORE FIRST USE
Before rst use, remove all packaging
and advertising labels / stickers from the
appliance.
TOUCH BUTTONS
Since all buttons on the control panel are
made as touch buttons, just asmall force is
needed to press them. To press the buttons,
we recommend to use the balls of your
ngers instead of ngertips.
Each press is accompanied by abeep to
conrm asuccessful press.
Always make sure that the touch buttons
on the control panel are clean and dry. Also
make sure that your hands are dry as even
athin coat of water or dirt on your ngers
may prevent abutton from pressing.
USING THE HOTPLATE
Put the hotplate on aclean, at and dry
surface. Make sure to leave asucient
clearance around the hotplate to allow
proper air circulation around the hotplate.
Make sure that the air inow openings or the
ventilation openings are not blocked.
Place dishes suitable to be used on an
induction hob on the hotplate centre.
Insert the power plug into aproperly
grounded power socket. An acoustic signal
will sound and the display will show“L”
indicating that the appliance is in the
standby mode and the hotplate temperature
is low.
NOTE
We recommend that you always put
the dishes on the hotplate centre rst
and then plug the power cord in the
mains socket.
WARNING!
Never turn on the
appliance if there
are dishes on the
hotplate with no
food inserted.

induction hob, the hotplate will stop and an
acoustic signal will sound. After one minute
of inactivity, the hotplate will automatically
switch to the stand-by mode.
If you remove dishes from the hotplate while
food is being cooked, an acoustic signal will
sound. After one minute of inactivity, the
hotplate will automatically switch to the
stand-by mode.

OPERATING YOUR IH 4010 INDUCTION HOB
NOTE
Afan located inside the hotplate will
start during operation. This is normal.
The fan helps to provide correct air
circulation and accelerate hot air
extraction from inside the hotplate.
This prevents the inner hotplate
parts against overeating which could
otherwise lead to their damage.
When the food cooking is nished and you
are not going to use the hotplate any more,
press ON/STANDBY to switch to the standby
mode. The display will show either“L”(the
hotplate temperature is low and safe to
touch) or“H”(the hotplate temperature is
high and unsafe to touch).
WARNING!
Do not touch the
hotplate while ”H”
is being shown on
the temperature
display. There is
adanger of aburns.
WARNING!

flammable objects
(such as kitchen
towels) or heat-
sensitive objects
(such as plastic
doses) on the
hotplate.

the temperature display shows“L” and the
hotplate fan has come to acomplete stop.
Then, you can unplug the power cord from
the mains socket carefully.
NOTE
The fan may be still running even
after the hotplate has switched in the
standby mode. This is normal.

OPERATING YOUR IH 4010 INDUCTION HOB
DISHES SUITABLE TO BE USED ON THE
INDUCTION HOB
The dishes suitable to be used on the
induction hob must be equipped with
aspecial ferromagnetic bottom. To nd out
if your dishes are suitable for use, attach
amagnet to adish bottom. If the magnet
sticks to the bottom, the dishes are suitable
for use (stainless, iron, stainless enamelled
or enamelled dishes for example). If not, the
dishes are not suitable for use (glass, ceramic,
aluminium or copper dishes for example).
Make sure that the dishes have aat bottom.
The bottom diameter of the dishes should
range between 15 to 20cm to be able to be
used on the Catler IH 4010 induction hob.
Before rst use, you may notice tiny white
spots on the bottom of the dishes. This is
normal. To remove such spots, warm up
asmall amount of vinegar to 60°C-80°C and
clean the spots with the warm vinegar.
