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.
