THE PRINCIPLES OF USE OF
INDUCTION HOB
The induction hob fulfills at corresponding
use according to these instructions the all
requirements to similar home appliances.
Switch off the main switch before the first
use and clean the appliance orderly (for
cleaning agents see the chapter “Cleaning
and maintenance”). Remove the advertising
sticker from the appliance, which is located in the corner of the glass-ceramic plate.
Solely adults can operate this appliance and according to this manual.
It is not allowed to leave small children without supervision near the appliance in operation.
The electric induction hob is an appliance whose operation requires supervision.
Prevent the use of empty enameled pots; their bottoms could be so damaged and at
scratch the surface at moving on the cooking plate.
Pots with grooving or burrs on the bottom are not suitable.
The bottom of metal pots should be for achieving the best results (at cooking on
induction cooking zone) 2 - 3 mm thick, at pots from stainless steel witch sandwich
bottom 4 - 6 mm thick.
The bottom should be at room temperature slightly bulged out, as after hot extension
only will lay on the cooking zone surface evenly. The minimal thermal losses are so
ensured with contact of surfaces.
You can prevent the scratching of glass ceramics with use of pots with clean and smooth
bottom.
Use pots with a diameter corresponding in size to the diameter of selected cooking zone.
The heat created on the pot bottom depends from the pot diameter. At smaller pot also
the capacity is lower. There is no exceeding consumption of energy, when the cooking
zone is not fully covered by the pot. Nevertheless put the pot in the middle of cooking
zone.
Use higher capacity levels for bringing food to boiling. Switch over to lower capacity level
of cooking zone after achieving of boiling.
Never use trays from aluminum foil nor made from aluminum containing materials.
Do not place things from plastics (spoons, trays, strainers, etc.) on the hot cooking zones,
such materials can easily melt and burn up.
Overheated fats can easily inflame so be careful, when preparing meals on fats and oils
(friting, etc.).
The changes in color and similar defects have impact to the
appearance of the cooking plate only and never directly to its
function. The removing of such defects is not subject of the
warranty.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Your induction hob is a nice looking and
easy to operate. The following hints and
recommendations can help you keep it as it
is for a long time.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Do not use steam cleaner for cleaning of the appliance!
Clean your glass ceramic plate regularly, after each use as the best.
Remove from the induction hob the all dried on food and liquid rests with help of a
scraper (enclosed in accessory) first.
As soon as the plate is cold, apply a few drops of suitable detergent and clean the surface
with paper towel or clean and soft towel.
Wash and dry up the surface after cleaning by another paper towel or soft cloth.
Never use steel wool, washing sponge or other cleaning matters with rough surface.
We do not recommend also the agents supporting corrosion, as for instance sprays for
cleaning of roasters and for removing of stains.
When by mistake an object from plastic, kitchen foil, sugar of food containing sugar was
melted on the hot surface of your glass ceramic plate, remove it immediately from the
hot surface by the scraper, and this not only from the induction hob but also from the pot
surface, when applicable. You prevent with it the damaging of cooking plate surface.
Before preparing meals with high content of sugar (for instance jam), coat the plate
with suitable protective agent for to protect it against damaging it with sugar in case of
running over of food or at pouring on the plate surface.
Shiny metal stains appear from scratching of aluminum pot bottom on the plate surface
or with using of unsuitable cleaning agent. Removing such stains is hardly possible by
repeated cleaning.
Colored changes on the induction hob surface are usually caused by not removed burnt
on rests. They have no influence on the function of the glass ceramic plate.
You can cause the grinding down of decor with abrasive cleaning agents or with
scratching of pot bottom on the induction hob surface for longer time. A dark stain can
be created on the induction hob this way.
Any changes in a graphics glossy don`t mean a damage of the appliance, but are the
result of a normal use of the hob.
