Causes ofdamage:
The base of thepans
The rough bases of pans may scratch thehob.
Avoid leaving empty pans on the hotplates. These may
causedamage.
Hotpans
Never rest hot pans on the control panel, the indicator area or the hobsurround.
Salt, sugar andsand
salt, sugar and sand may scratch the ceran glass.
Do not lean on the hob or use it as worksurface.
Hard and pointedobjects
Hard or pointed objects may cause damage if they fall onto thehob.
Spiltfood
Sugar and other similar products may damage thehob.
These products should be removed immediately using a
glassscraper.
Inappropriate cleaningproducts
Discolorations in the metal are caused by using unsuitable cleaning products and
wear as a result of contact withpans.
Plastic andfoil
Aluminum foil and plastic containers will melt if placed on the hot areas of thehob
Advice on saving energy
size of thehotplate.
Use a pan with thick flat base. Curved bases increase
energyconsumption.
Place a ruler on the base of the pan, if there are no
gaps, the base of the pan is completelyflat.
Thediameterofthebaseofthepanshouldfitthe
Check if the manufacturer has indicated the upper diameter of the pan. In general,
this is greater than the diameter of the base of thepan.
If the diameter of the pan does not fit the diameter of the hotplate, you are
recommended to use a pan which is larger than the size of the hotplate, or else about
half the energy will belost.

Electric Induction hobs Chef’sEH-DIH888/ EH-DIH888P

Choose pans which are the right size for the amount of food to be prepared. A large
pan which is half full will consume a lot ofenergy.
Always centre the pan on the hotplate and always cover the pan with the matching
lid. Cooking without using the lid quadruples energyconsumption.
Cook using small amounts of water. This will save energy and will also help green
vegetables retain their vitamins andminerals.
During their cooking, food such as stews, soups may heat up too quickly without
any indication, spilling out of thecookware.
It is therefore advisable to heat this type of food gently, selecting a suitable power
level and stirring the contents before and duringcooking.
We recommend not to use for Induction hob pots that have been used in a gas hob
fire can deform the flatness of bottom). In case of use, check that bottom isflat.

Preparing theKitchen
The worktop should be flat and horizontal. The aperture should be cut before the
appliance is installed. Remove any shavings, as these can affect the operation of the
electrical components. When the cutting has been completed, the unit’s stability should
be checkedagain.
Surfaces which have been cut should be sealed so that they are heat resistant and
so that they do not swell whenmoist.
The kitchen units to be fitted must resist temperatures of up to 90oC.
The gap between the aperture and the side wall must be at least: 40mm
It is not recommended that the hob be placed between two side walls but, if this is
the case, a gap of at least 200 mm should also be left on oneside.
If the induction hob is installed above a sterilizer there must be a gap of 70 mm from
the top of worktop to the top of thesterilizer.
If the induction hob is installed without sterilizer or above a drawer, the worktop
thick around the hob must be 20 mm asminimum.
If the interior width of the kitchen unit is less than 700 mm, a 80 mm – long cut must
be made in the side walls from the top section of thehob.
Taking into account the hobventilation:
An aperture must be cut in the top section of the back of the kitchen unit, 680 mm
wide and 45 mmhigh.
There must be a gap of 20 mm between the back of the kitchen unit and the kitchen
wall.
if the hob is installed above a drawer, allow a gap of 65 mm between the drawer
and the top section of theworktop.
Installing and connecting thehob
The earth wire ( green and yellow) should be connected first and disconnected last.
It should also be longer than the others, so that even if the hob is moving the other
wires can be disconnected before the earthwire.

Is required 16A electrical installation at customer’s house (electrical circuit, socket
and fuse).
Do not trap the lead during installation and do not guide it over sharpedges.
The hob and the worktop should not be sealed with silicone as the hob itself has a
seal which serves thisfunction.
Removing thehob
Disconnect the cooker from the power supply.
Push out the hob frombelow
3. Inductioncooking
Advantages of inductioncooking
Ø Greater speed in cooking and frying; as the pan is heateddirectly.
Ø Reduced energyconsumption
Ø Cleaner and easier to use; spilt food does not burn as much on thehob.
Ø
Cooking control and safety; the hob supplies or cuts off the heat as soon
as the controls are operated. The Induction hotplate stops supplying heat if
the pan is removed before the power has been switchedoff.
Suitablepans
Ferromagneticpansaretheonlypanswhicharesuitableforinductioncooking.
They can be madeof:
•enameledsteel
•castiron
•specially designed cookware for induction cooking made from stainlesssteel
Special pans for inductioncooking.
Other types of special pans are available for induction cooking, where the base of
the pan is not entirely ferromagnetic. Check the diameter as this could affect the pan
detection as well as the cookingresults.
Checking pans using amagnet
To find out whether the pans are suitable, check
that they are attracted to amagnet.
The manufacturer will usually indicate if their pans
are suitable for inductioncooking.
Unsuitable pans. Never use pans madefrom:
•standard, high qualitysteel
•glass /earthenware
•copper /aluminum

Electric Induction hobs Chef’sEH-DIH888/ EH-DIH888P
11
Characteristics of the base of thepan
The characteristics of the base of the pan can
affect the evenness of thecooking.
Pans which are made from heat-diffusing materials
( such as “sandwich” pans made from stainless
steel) distribute the heat evenly, saving time and
energy.
No pan or incorrect sizepan
If no pan is place on the hotplate, or the pan is not made of a suitable material or it
is not a suitable size, the heat setting on the hotplate indicator willflash.
Place a suitable pan on the hotplate to stop the indicator flashing. If there is a delay
of more than 90 seconds, the hotplate switches offautomatically.
Empty pans or pans with a thinbase
Do not heat empty pans and do not use pans with thin bases. Although your hob is
equipped with an internal safety system, empty cookware can heat up so quickly that
the “automatic OFF” function does not have time to react and a very high temperature
may be reached. The base of the pan could melt and damage the hob’s glass surface.
If this happens, do not touch the pan and switch off the hotplate. If it does not work
after cooling, contact our Local Service Center ordealer.
Pandetection
Each hotplate has a minimum limit for pan detection which varies according to the
material from which the pan being used is made. It is for this reason you are
recommended to use a hotplate which matches the diameter of thepan.

6. 2 Automatic switchingOff
The TC switches from Power ON to OFF after 20 sec., provided that no cooking
zone is activated or a select key is pressed during thattime.
6. 3 Switching On/Off a Cookingzone
If the touch control is already switched ON, a cooking zone and cooking level can be
selected at once by touching the slider area of the according cooking zone. By “sliding”
the finger on the slider area the cooking level can be increased or decreased. This will
be displayed on the bargraph according to the position of thefinger.
Fig. 4: Switching ON a cooking zone by touch on the sliderarea
Additionally the 7 segment display of the cooking zone will show the cooking level. A
second alternative user philosophy could be designed to first activate a cooking zone
touching the slider area and then in a second step selecting the cookinglevel.
Switching a single cooking zoneOFF:
A single cooking zone can be switched OFF by directly selecting cooking level “0” or
through sliding down to “0”. If a cooking zone is switched OFF but still hot the according
display will show“H”.

Switching OFF all cookingzones:
Immediately switching OFF all cooking zones is always possible by using the
ON/OFFkey.
7. Selecting power level for a cookingzone
The power of the cooking zone is adjustable in 10 different stages; the respective
stage is displayed ([1] to [9] and booster ) viaLED-seven-segment-displays.
The power stages are only determined by the how many keys you slide, but not the
position you slide. All the slider operation should be made within the sliderarea.
To adjust the power level by sliding the finger on slider bar to right ( to increase)
and left ( todecrease).

And the cooking zone is ready for BoostFunction.
Booster as highest cooking level. Display on the bargraph and optionally showing
“P“ on a 7 segmentdisplay.
Booster as special cooking level: Booster can be activated by sliding to the highest
cooking level then remove the finger from the slider and then select the highest cooking
levelagain.
8. Residual heatindication
For induction heating element, after turn off the cooking zone, the residual is
determined by Induction heating element temperaturesensor.
It is to be understood that cooking zone temperatures higher than + 65 °C are
critical on touch. When the temperature is higher than + 65 °C, residual heat indication
will be occurred with“H”.

Electric Induction hobs Chef’sEH-DIH888/ EH-DIH888P
Fig. 7: Residual heat warning aftercooking
The residual heat indication of each cooking zone remains activated until the
calculated temperature is lower than + 60°C.
9. Automatic safety off ( inductioncooking)
For each activated cooking zone a max. operating time is defined in case the user
forget.The max.operating time is depending on the selected cooking stage (see below
table). After the expiration of the max.operating time the cooking zone is automatically
switchedoff.
Each actuation of the cooking zone status (changing the cooking level etc.) resets
the count-down timer to the initial startingvalue.
Timer settings takes priority vs. operating time limitations for high cooking stage
setting, i.e. the cooking zone is deactivated, when the timer has expired and not when
this is requested by the automatic switch-off (e.g. timer 90 minutes to cooking stage9).

10. Protection against unintentionalactivation
The electronic system cuts off automatically in case of an identified permanent
use of keys for about 10seconds.
Water sprinkled on the glass surface does not always lead to a key actuation
and can not be surelydetected.
The power ON/OFF key has priority over any other key hence the control can be
switched Off even if other keys are pressed or a permanent use of keys isdetected.
11. Keylock
ActivatingKey-Lock:
By pressing on the “key lock” key for 1 seconds in the wait mode will lock the
keyboard and the assigned key-lock LED is steadyilluminated.
The control continues to work in the set mode, but may no longer be operated with
any key, except the key-lock key itself and the on/offkey.
Fig. 8: Lock / Unclockthe TC by press on Key-Lock key in 1second.
The status of the Key-Lock function is not saved in EEPROM (only RAM) and will,
thus, be eliminated in the event of a mainsfailure.
Unlocking / DisablingKey-Lock

12. Operating thetimer
12.1 Basics
The timer module contains up to 3 timers. 2 timer which can be assigned for the
cooking zones and 1 independent timer called “egg-timer”. The three 7-segment
displays show the remaining time until the alarm isactivated.
All timers work as count down timers. The operation range is between 1 min to 1h
59min.
For remaining times less than 9min 59sec the display is exact to the second.
Before activating a timer the control has to be switched on. Switching the control off
deactivates cooking zone relatedtimers.
The “egg timer” stays active after switching the controloff.
Fig.9: Three timer supported forhob
Audible signal with timing, two cooking zones are invidiually programmable cooking
zone-Timer from 0 to 1.59hours.
In order to assure clear assignment of the actual displayed remaining time to a
cooking zone, each cooking zone has a luminous symbol which is fully lighted when the
timer for this cooking zone is displayed in the 3 digit 7-segmentdisplay.
If the timer of a cooking zones is not active the symbol is inactive. If a cooking zone
timer is active but not displayed on the 3 digit 7-segment display the luminous symbol
is illuminated half (dimmed). Alternatively this differentiation can also be done using
flashing or static luminoussymbols.
12.2 Activating Cooking ZoneTimer
A Timer can be activated for each active cooking zone. After selecting the timer by
press simultaneously 2 timer+ and timer– keys ( first time), the cooking zone ( left zone)
Timer is selected and related luminous symbol is fully lighted. The timer display shows
“0.00”.

Electric Induction hobs Chef’sEH-DIH888/ EH-DIH888P

For the following 10 sec it is now possible to assign a timer value to the active
cooking zone. After 10sec without input the timer function is deactivate and the display
is switched offagain.
Fig.10: Press simultaneously Timer + and Timer- keys to active theTimer
By pressing simultaneously timer+ and timer- keys again ( second time) (as long as
no value was set), the right cooking zone Timer can be selected and related luminous
symbol is fully lighted. While the symbol of left cooking zone Timer is halflighted.
By pressing simultaneously timer+ and timer- keys again ( third time) (as long as
no value was set), the egg timer can be selected and related luminous symbol is fully
lighted.
Egg timer work as a count down timer for alarmpurpose.
12.3 Setting a timervalue
Pressing the Timer + keys, a timer value can be set. If the Timer+ key is pressed
first the display starts with 1min and can be increased in 1minsteps.
Pressing and hold the keys permanently fastens up the timer adjustment. The
speed will also increase while the key isheld.
