CONTROL PANEL
Before using the induction hob, read this manual carefully and take note on the
“Safety Guidelines” section.
Remove any protective film that may still be on the induction hob.
Induction Cooking System
Inducon cooking is a safe, advanced, ecient, and economical cooking technology.
When cooking zone is selected, the electromagnec circuit produce induced currents
that instantly heat the boom of the cookware which then transfer heat directly to
the food. Cooking takes place with hardly any energy loss between the inducon hob
and food. The glass becomes hot only when the cookware eventually heats it up.
Inducon hob operates only if a correct pan with right features and dimension is
placed on the cooking zone – refer to cookware selecon for inducon cooking.
Cookware for Induction Cooking
•Only use cookware with a base suitable for inducon
cooking. Look for the inducon symbol “ ” on the
packaging or at the boom of the pan.
•Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable
•Pure stainless steel, aluminum or copper without a
magnec base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and
earthenware.
•To check if the cookware is suitable for inducon,
•Use a magnet. Put the magnet at the boom of the base and if the magnet
scks, the cookware is suitable.
If you do not have a magnet, put some water in the cookware you want to check
and place on the cooking zone. Follow the steps under ‘To start cooking’. If the

symbol “ ” does not appear on the display and the water is heang, the pan is
suitable.
•The cooking zone will not operate if the cookware diameter is too small (the
symbol “ ” will appear on the display. Follow the recommended cookware
diameter given in the following table to correctly use the cooking zone.
Cooking Zone (mm)
Minimum cookware diameter recommended
(refer to the boom of the cookware)
Independent zone
160 mm
Flexible zone
110 mm
Note: Some cookware available in the market is not in good quality or has an eecve
ferromagnec area which is smaller than the diameter of the cookware itself. Avoid using
this cookware as the inducon cooktop may not funcon properly or it may cause damage
to the cooktop.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits at against the glass, and is the
same size as the cooking zone. Always center your pan on the cooking zone.
Always li pans o the ceramic hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
Note: Some type of cookware may cause noise during cooking – the noise is normal and does
not mean any malfuncon of the appliance.
Choose the exible zone heang for griddle plate or large cookware
Some inducon cookware doesn’t have a complete ferromagnec base:
If the material of the boom of the cookware contains aluminum, the
ferromagnec area will also be reduced. This may mean that the cookware will
not become hot enough or even be detected.
Touch Control
The hob is fitted with induction cooking zones. These zones, shown by the painted
disks on ceramic surface, are controlled by touch control system
Notes:
•The control responds to touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure.
•Use the ball of your nger, not the p.
•You will hear an acousc sound each me a touch is registered.
•Make sure the control area is always clean, dry and that there is no object (e.g. a
utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin lm of water may make the control
dicult to operate.
