This appliance has been manufactured to the strictest standards and
complies with all applicable legislation, including Electrical safety
(LVD) 2014/35/EU and Electromagnetic interference compatibility

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CORRECT DISPOSAL OF THE
PRODUCT IN ACCORDANCE WITH EU DIRECTIVE 2012/19/EU.
At the end of its working life, the product must be taken to a special
local authority waste collection centre or to a dealer providing
appliance recycling services.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible
negative consequences for the environment and health. It also
enables the constituent materials to be recovered, saving both energy
and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household
appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out
wheeled dustbin.
Please note:
•Induction hobs become hot and remain hot during and immediately
after use. Do not touch the hob until it has been allowed to cool.
•Keep children away from the appliance when in use.
•Never use the hob top for storage.
•Pan handles should never stand out beyond the edge of the
worktop. This will help to avoid children reaching them.
•Do not lean over the hob when it is in use.
•Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
•Ensure the base of the saucepan is clean and dry before placing it
on the hob.
•Avoid hard shocks from cookware – the vitroceramic glass surface
is highly resistant but not unbreakable.

•Do not place hot lids flat on the hob top. A “suction” eect could
cause damage to the hob.
•Do not drag cookware across the hob top: in the long term, this
could cause damage to the hob.
•Do not store cleaning or flammable products in the unit below the
hob.
•Always use appropriate cookware.
•Do not cook unopened tins of food directly on the hob.
•Never put cooking foil or plastic materials on the ceramic surface
when the hob is hot. These materials could melt and cause
damage to the hob.
•This hob (Class 3) has been designed for use only as a cooking
appliance. Any other use should be considered incorrect and
therefore dangerous.
FOR THOSE WITH HEART PACEMAKERS OR ACTIVE IMPLANTS:
The function of this hob conforms to current electromagnetic
interference standards and thus is in total compliance with legal
requirements (2004/108/EC directives).
To avoid interference between your hob and a pacemaker, your
pacemaker must be designed and programmed in compliance with
the regulations that apply to it. As such, CDA guarantee only that our
product is compliant.
With regard to the compliance of the pacemaker or any potential
incompatibility, you should obtain information from the manufacturer
or your attending physician.

Important
•Do not use the hob if the glass surface is cracked or damaged to
prevent the risk of electric shock. Disconnect it from the power
supply.
•Ensure that the power cable of a connected electrical appliance
near the hob is not in contact with the cooking zones.

Cooking on Induction
The principle of induction cooking is based on magnetic eect.
When you put your cookware on an induction zone and switch it on,
the electronic boards in the hob produce induced currents in the base
of the cookware and instantly raise its temperature. This heat is then
transferred to the food inside the cookware.
The best cookware to use with induction cooking has thick flat bases,
as the heat will be better distributed meaning cooking is more even.
Most cookware is compatible with induction cooking.
There are three ways to check the suitability of your cookware:
1. Use a magnet to see if the base of the pan is magnetic: If the
magnet sticks, then the cookware is compatible.
2. Place the pan on one of the cooking zones and switch the
zone on. If the display continues to show the selected power
level then the cookware is compatible. If the display shows “ ”,
the cookware cannot be used on an induction hob.
3. Check the instructions or packaging of the pans for the
symbols indicating suitability for use with induction.

Using Your Hob
To switch the hob on
•To switch the power on, touch and hold the "On/o sensor" (1) for
approximately two seconds. The hob will beep and all displays will
show “0”.
Please note: If a zone is not selected nor a power level set within
twenty seconds, the hob will switch o automatically.
To set the power level
•Touch the cooking zone selector (3) for the required zone. The hob
will beep and the zone display will brighten.
•Select the desired heat setting using the "+" or "-" selectors. The
power level ranges from 1 (minimum) to 9 (maximum). The hob will
begin heating and the cooking zone indicator will remain brighter
for approximately ten seconds before dimming.
Please note: After zone selection, zone adjustment will remain active
for approximately ten seconds. Also, if no key is touched within twenty
seconds, the zone will become inactive and the hob will switch o
automatically.
To turn the power o to a zone
•To switch o a zone, touch the cooking zone selector (3) so that the
cooking zone display (2) brightens. Then use the "+" or "-" selectors
to adjust the power level to "0". The cooking zone indicator will
display a "0" to confirm that the zone is now inactive but will display
an " " if the zone is still hot to the touch.

• If switching o both zones, the above step needs to be taken
for each zone. When both the zones are at "0", the hob will switch
o automatically after approximately twenty seconds.
•Alternatively, to switch o the hob immediately, touch and hold the
"On/o sensor" (1) for approximately two seconds. Any zones that
are still hot to the touch will display an " ".
Please note: In case of a cut to the power supply, the residual heat
indicators will not be displayed yet the zones may still be hot to the
touch. It is advisable to refrain from touching the hob top, particularly
with bare hands, for some time after use.
Operating time limiter
In addition to the booster deactivation timer, each zone has an
operating time limiter to increase overall eciency and to prevent
the hob from being left on indefinitely. If a zone's heat setting is
not changed for a specific duration then the associated zone is
automatically switched o and residual heat indicator activated.
Zones can still be used as normal in accordance with the operating
instructions. The operating time limiter is set according to the last
selected heat setting. The maximum operating times for each setting
can be found on page 10.
Please note: In order to conserve electricity and ensure maximum
eciency of the hob, heat setting "9" will automatically reduce to heat
setting "8" after 30 minutes of continuous usage.

Timer/Minute Minder
The hob is equipped with a timer that allows a finish time to be set
for the end of cooking on any zone, between a minimum of 1 minute
and a maximum of 99 minutes. This timer can be used separately for
each zone. Once the timers are set, the timer display will show the
time remaining on the first zone to finish cooking and an LED will flash
next to the zone power level. The timer can also be used as a minute
minder to count down time when the zones are not in use.
To set the timer
•First switch on the hob and set the desired zone to the power level
required.
•Whilst the relevant cooking zone display (2) is bright, touch the “+”
and “-” selectors simultaneously.
