HOW TO SAVE ELECTRICITY
UNPACKING
DISPOSAL
Using the electricity in a responsible manner not only saves money, but also helps protect
the environment. So let’s save electricity! This is how it’s done:
The appliance was protected from damage at the time of transport. After unpacking, please
dispose of all elements of packaging in a way that will not cause damage to the environ-
ment. All materials used for packaging the appliance are environmentally friendly; they are
100%recyclableandaremarkedwiththeappropriatesymbol.
This marking means that the appliance must not be disposed of together with other house-
hold waste after it has been used. The user is obliged to hand it over to waste collection
centre collecting used electrical and electronic goods.
The collectors, including local collection points, shops and local authority departments
providerecyclingschemes.Properhandlingofusedelectricalandelectronicgoodshelps
avoid environmental and health hazards resulting from the presence of dangerous compo-
nents and the inappropriate storage and processing of such goods
Important! Keep the packaging material (bags, Styrofoam pieces, etc.) out of reach of
children during unpacking.
InaccordancewithEuropeanDirective2012/19/UEandPolishlegislationregardingused
electrical and electronic goods, this appliance is marked with the symbol of the crossed-out
waste container.
•●Use the correct cookware
Cookwarewithflatandathickbasecansaveupto1/3ofelectricity.Pleaserememberto
cover cookware with the lid, otherwise electricity consumption increased four times!
•Always keep the cooking zones and cookware bases clean.
Dirt prevents proper heat transfer. Often burnt stains can be removed only with agents
harmful to the environment.
•●Avoiding unnecessary lifting the lid to peek into the pot.
•Do not install the hob in the immediate vicinity of refrigerator / freezer.
The electricity consumption is then unnecessarily increased.

OPERATION
Before using the appliance for the first time
Induction cooking zone operation principle
Electric oscillator powers a coil placed inside the appliance. This coil produces a magnetic
field, which induces eddy currents in the cookware. These eddy currents induced by the
magnetic field cause the cookware to heat up.
This requires the use of pots and pans whose base is ferromagnetic, in other words sus-
ceptible to magnetic fields.
Overall, induction technology is characterized by two advantages:
Certainsoundscanbeheardduringnormaluseoftheinductionhob,whichdonotaffect
its correct operation.
The noises that can be heard during the normal appliance operation are the result of the
cooling fan operation, cooking method, cookware dimensions, cookware material and the
heat setting. These noises are normal and do not indicate a fault.
••thoroughlycleanyourinductionhobfirst.Theinductionhobshouldbetreatedwiththe
same care as a glass surface.
••switchontheventilationintheroomoropenawindow,astheappliancecouldemitan
unpleasant smell during first use.
••operatetheappliancewhileobservingallsafetyguidelines.
•the heat is only emitted by the cookware and its use is maximised,
•there is no thermal inertia, since the cooking starts immediately when the pot is placed
on the hob and ends once it is removed
••Low-frequencyhumming.Thisnoiseariseswhenthecookwareisemptyandstops
when water is poured or food is placed in the cookware.
••High-frequencywhizz.Thisnoisearisesincookwaremadeofmultiplelayersofdiffer-
ent materials at maximum heat setting. The noise intensifies when using two or more
cooking zones at maximum heat setting. The noise will stop or reduce when heat
setting is reduced.
••Creakingnoise.Thisnoisearisesincookwaremadeofmultiplelayersofdifferentma-
terials. The noise intensity depends on how the food is cooked.
••Buzzing.Buzzingcanbeheardwhenelectronicscoolingfanoperates.

13
OPERATION
Pan detector
Pandetectorisinstalledininductionhobs.Pandetectorstartsheatingautomaticallywhen
a pan is detected on a cooking zone and stops heating when it is removed. This helps save
electricity.
The induction hob is equipped with electronic touch control sensor fields, which are op-
erated by touching the marked area with a finger. Each time a sensor field is touched, an
acoustic signal can be heard.
•When a suitable pan is placed on a cooking zone, the display shows the heat setting.
••Inductionrequirestheuseofsuitablecookwarewithferromagneticbase(seeTable).
If a pan is not placed on a cooking zone or the pan is unsuitable, the symbol
isdisplayed.Thecookingzonewillnotoperate.Ifapanisnotdetectedwithin10
minutes, the cooking zone will be switched off. Switch off the cooking zone using the
touch control sensor field rather than by removing the pan.
When switching the appliance on or off or changing the heat setting, attention should
be paid that only one sensor field at a time is touched. When two or more sensor
fields are touched at the same time (except timer and child lock), the appliance ig-
nores the control signals and may trigger a fault indication if sensor fields are touched
for a long time. When you finish cooking switch off the cooking zone using touch
control sensor fields and do not rely solely on the pan detector.
Pan detector does not operate as the on/off sensor.
The protective device:
If the hob has been installed correctly and is used properly, any protective devices are rarely
required.
Fan: protects and cools controls and power components. It can operate at two different
speeds and is activated automatically. Fan runs until the electronic system has sufficiently
cooled down regardless of the appliance or the cooking zones being turned on or off.
Temperature sensor: Temperature of electronic circuits is continuously monitored by a
temperature sensor. If temperature is raised beyond a safe level, this protection system will
reduce cooking zone heat setting or shut down the cooking zones adjacent to the over-
heated electronic circuits.
Pan detection: allows the hob to detect pans placed on a cooking zone. Small objects
placed on the cooking zone (eg, spoon, knife, ring ...) will not be recognised as pans and
the hob will not operate.

OPERATION
The high-quality cookware is an essential condition for efficient induction
cooking.
Cookware characteristics
Select cookware for induction cooking
••Alwaysusehighqualitycookware,withperfectlyflatbase.Thispreventstheformation
oflocalhotspots,wherefoodmightstick.Potsandpanswiththicksteelwallsprovide
superior heat distribution.
••Makesurethatcookwarebaseisdry:whenfillingapotorwhenusingapottakenout
of the refrigerator make sure its base is completely dry before placing it on the cooking
zone. This is to avoid soiling the surface of the hob.
••Lidpreventsheatfromescapingandthusreducesheatingtimeandlowersenergy
consumption.
••Todetermineifcookwareissuitable,makesurethatitsbaseattractsamagnet.
•●Cookware base has to be flat for optimal temperature control by the induction
module.
•●The concave base or deep embossed logo of the manufacturer interfere with
the temperature induction control module and can cause overheating of the pot
or pan.
•●Do not use damaged cookware such as cookware with deformed base due to
excessive heat.
•When you use large ferromagnetic base cookware,
whose diameter is less than the total diameter of the
cookware, only the ferromagnetic base heats up.
This results in a situation where it is not possible to
uniformly distribute the heat in the cookware. If the
ferromagnetic area is reduced due to inclusion of al-
uminium parts, then the effective heated area can be
reduced.Problemswiththe detectionof thecook-
ware could arise or cookware may not be detected at
all. To achieve optimum cooking results, the diameter
of the ferromagnetic base should match that of the
cooking zone. If cookware is not detected in a giv-
en cooking zone, it is advisable to try it in a smaller
cooking zone.

•In order to achieve best cooking results, use cookware with bottoms (ferromagnetic
part) of the size corresponding to the size of the cooking zone.
••Usingcookwarewiththebottomdiametersmallerthanthecookingzonesizewillre-
duce the effectiveness of the cooking zone and increase cooking time.
••Cookingzoneshavealowerpotdetectionlimitthatdependsonthediameteroffer-

OPERATION
Booster function “P”
Residual Heat Indicator
The Booster function can be selected by pressing the far right of the sliding control (2). With
this function, all the cooking zones are able to receive a power supply above the nominal
power (the number of zones with booster at the same time will depend on the power pro-
vided to the different zones, which must always be less than the maximum power of the
hob).
Theboosteractivationtimeislimitedto5minutestoprotectcookingutensils.Afterthe
booster has automatically switched off, the cooking zone continues to operate at setting
level“9”.
The booster can be reactivated after a few minutes. If the pan is removed from the cooking
zone during boosting, the booster function remains active and the disabling time continues
its countdown.
Powermanagementisbasedontheprinciplethatthelastmodificationtothesettinglevelin
the different zones has top priority. This means that the setting levels previously configured
in the other zones may be automatically decreased
- If the induction detects that any of the cooking zones requires a reduction, the display for
thiszoneflashesfor3secondstotimeforcorrectionpriortomodification.
- If the selected zone is re-adjusted within the correction period, power management anal-
yses the power distribution again. If a reduction in power is not required, the flashing stops
and the original setting level remains on the corresponding display.
- Should power distribution be changed again by the user, the setting level will under no cir-
cumstances automatically increase in the zones where it has been automatically reduced.
This informs the user that the glass is at a dangerous temperature should the area around
the cooking zone be touched. The temperature is determined by a mathematical model
and any residual heat is indicated by an “H” on the corresponding 7-segment display.
Heatingandcoolingarecalculatedbasedon:
•-Theselectedsettinglevel(between“0“and“9“)
•-TheON/OFFtime.Afterswitchingoffthecookingzone,thecorrespondingdisplaywill
indicate“H”untilthetemperatureinthezonehasdroppedbelowthecriticallevel(≤60•C)
according to the mathematical model.
Automatic Switch-off (Operating Time Limitation)
For each activated cooking zone a max. operating time is defined. The max. operating time
is depending on the selected cooking stage. After the expiration of the max. operating time
the cooking zone is automatically switched off. Each actuation of the cooking zone status
(changing the cooking level etc.) resets the count-down timer to the initial starting value.
Timer settings takes priority vs. operating time limitations for high cooking stage setting.

Water sprinkled on the glass surface does not always lead to a key actuation and cannot be
surely detected. ( After wiping the glass covering the keys, all keys are ready for operation
in no time).
Ifnocookingzoneisactivatedwithin20secafterpressingPOWERON,thecontrolunitis
reset to Off-mode (black displays).

key have to be taken into account. The control continues to work in the set mode, but may
nolongerbeoperatedwithanykey,exceptthekey-lockkeyitselfortheon/offkey“1”.

When programmed timers expire the respective timer alarms may be confirmed by actuat-
ing any key without needing to unlock the control.
The repeated actuation of the key-lock key in the wait or active mode unlocks the keyboard
and the assigned key-lock LED fades. All sensor keys may be operated as usual again.

The timer function is available in two types:
-Stand-alone-timer1..99min:Audiblesignalwithtiming.Thisfunctioncanonlybeactivat-

be used to cut off a cooking zone (see cooking zone timer) then the control must first be
switched off (power sensor) and switched on again.

Setting a timer value: By adjustment with the slider area.
Primarilytheadjustmentofthefirstdigittakesplaceandthereaftertheadjustmentofthe
seconddigit.Within10secaftertheadjustmentoftheseconddigitthevaluemightbere-
set. (Illuminated display dot in the timer display and in case of a cooking zone specific timer
a blinking assigned LED).
Incaseofanactivetimerdisplaythetimervaluemaybesetto[0]directlybypressing[0]
on the slider area (left side)
Switching of an active timer: Atimercanbeswitchedofbysettingitsvalueto0.Astand
