WORKING PRINCIPLE
Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, ecient,
and economical cooking technology. It works
by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat
directly in the pan, rather than indirectly through
heating the glass surface. The glass becomes hot
only because the pan eventually warms it up.

USING THE TOUCH CONTROLS
• The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need
to apply any pressure.
• Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.
• You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
• Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is no object (e.g. a utensil or
a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the controls dicult to operate.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT COOKWARE
• Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction
symbol on the packaging or on the bottom of the pan.
• You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a magnet test. Move a
magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction.
• If you do not have a magnet:-
1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.
2. If it does not flash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.
• Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless steel, aluminium
or copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.
Always lift pans o the ceramic hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the same size as
the cooking zone. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.

COOKING GUIDELINES
COOKING TIPS
• When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting.
• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.
• Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
• Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has heated through.
Simmering, cooking rice
• Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85˚C, when bubbles are just rising
occasionally to the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key to delicious soups and tender
stews because the flavours develop without overcooking the food. You should also cook
egg-based and flour thickened sauces below boiling point.
• Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a setting higher
than the lowest setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in the time recommended.
Searing steak
To cook juicy flavoursome steaks:
1. Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.
2. Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
3. Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot pan and then
lower the meat onto the hot pan.
4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on the
thickness of the steak and how cooked you want it. Times may vary from about 2 – 8
minutes per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is – the firmer it feels the more
‘well done’ it will be.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and become
tender before serving.
For stir-frying
1. Choose an ceramic compatible flat-based wok or a large frying pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be quick.
If cooking large quantities, cook the food in several smaller batches.
3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooking zone to a lower
setting, return the meat to the pan and add your sauce.
6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.
7. Serve immediately.
PAGE 19
DETECTION OF SMALL ARTICLES
When an unsuitable size or non-magnetic pan (e.g. aluminium), or some other small item
(e.g. knife, fork, key) has been left on the hob, the hob automatically go on to standby in 1 minute.
The fan will keep cooking down the induction hob for a further 1 minute.

CARE AND CLEANING
WHAT? HOW? IMPORTANT!
Everyday
soiling on glass
(fingerprints,
marks, stains left
by food or non-
sugary spillovers
on the glass)

cooking zone surfaces:
1. Switch the power to the cooktop o
at the wall.
2. Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° angle and
scrape the soiling or spill to a cool area
of the cooktop.
3. Clean the soiling or spill up with a dish
cloth or paper towel.
4. Follow steps 2 to 4 for
‘Everyday soiling on glass’ above.
• Remove stains left by melts and sugary
food or spillovers as soon as possible.
If left to cool on the glass, they may be
dicult to remove or even permanently
damage the glass surface.
• Cut hazard: when the safety cover is
