A Word On Induction Cooking
Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking technol-
ogy. 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.

Before Using Your New Induction Cooktop
• Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
• Remove any protective film that may still be on your induction cooktop.
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 difficult 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 cooking.
• If you do not have a magnet:
1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.
2. If 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.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.

Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is
the same size as the cooking zone. Use pans whose diameter is as large as the
graphic of the zone selected. Using a pot a slightly wider energy will be used at its
maximum efficiency. If you use smaller pot efficiency could be less than expected.
Pot less than 5¹/in could be undetected by the cooktop. Always centre your pan on
the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the induction cooktop – do not slide, or they may scratch the
glass.
Using Your Induction Cooktop

c. If slide along the “—”, power will vary from stage 2 to stage 8.
Press “-”, power will decrease by one stage each time till stage 0.
Press “+”, power will increase by one stage each time till stage 9.
If The Display Flashes Alternately With The
Heat Setting
This means that:
• You have not placed a pan on the correct cooking zone or,
• The pan you’re using is not suitable for induction cooking or,
• The pan is too small or not properly centred on the cooking zone.
No heating takes place unless there is a suitable pan on the cooking zone. The
display will automatically turn off after 1 minutes if no suitable pan is placed on it.
