Induction Cooktop
Note: The control knob decals
are printed on the bezels at the
base of each control knob.
The cooktop inductive cooking
zones are each controlled by a
control knob on the front panel
(either side of the oven control
knobs). Each cooking zone is
represented by a filled in
rectangle on the decal just above
the control knob.
LO : Heat maintenance
position.
MED : Heating in low temperature position.
HI : Cooking, frying and boiling position.
Position the control knob so the indicator is pointing upwards (off). Rotate the
control knob clockwise to increase the power delivered from the cooking zone.
Rotate the control knob anti-clockwise to reduce the power delivered from the
cooking zone. There are 9 power levels for each cooking zone.
To use a cooking zone, place a correctly sized utensil (it should be the same size or
slightly smaller than the decal on the glass) centrally on the cooking zone and adjust
the power level with the control knob. The power level will be displayed at the front
centre of the glass panel. If the utensil is made from incorrect material, too small or
not centred, the display will show a “U”.
When a cooking zone is turned off, the residual heat indicator (H) turns on. This will
turn off after the glass above the cooking zone cools down. Do not touch the glass
around the cooking zones during or after cooking until the residual heat indicator
turns off, as the glass may remain hot for some time.
Only use pots and pans with flat base and designed for use with induction cookops.
Always centre the pans on the cooking zones.

15

Deep-frying safety requirements:
 Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the appropriate heating
area.
 Never fill the pan more than one-third full of oil.
 Never leave oil unattended during the heating or cooking period.
 Never try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food. This only
lowers the temperature of the oil and results in greasy food.
 Always dry food thoroughly before frying and lower it slowly into the hot oil.
 Frozen foods in particular will cause frothing and spitting, if added to quickly.
 Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or fat.
Never: Use gauze, metal pan diffusers, asbestos mats and stands e.g. Wok stands -
they can overheat. Use utensils with skirts or rims e.g. buckets and some kettles.
Use badly dented or distorted pans. Drag or slide utensils along the glass cooktop
surface.
Ensure pan handles are positioned safely and away from heat sources. Always lift
pans, do not drag. Always use pan lids except when frying. Deal with spillages
immediately but with care.
DO NOT:
 Use the cooktop as a worktop surface as damage may occur to the glass.
 Leave any utensils, food or combustible items on the cooktop when it is not in
use.
 Place aluminium or plastic foil or plastic containers on the cooktop. We
recommend not placing large preserving pans or fish kettles across two
heating areas.
 Use glass ceramic utensils.

Cleaning the appliance
Before each cleaning disconnect the cooker from the electricity. To assure the long
life of the appliance, it shall be thoroughly cleaned frequently.
Wait until the oven has cooled before removing the wire shelves wash them
separately in warm soapy water and dry thoroughly.
Wash the interior of the oven with hot soapy water and wipe down with a damp
cloth.
Leave the door open until the interior has dried before replacing the wire shelves.
Clean the oven after each use especially after roasting or grilling this will prevent spilt
or splattered food debris burning and becoming difficult to remove.
Do not use abrasive pads to clean the interior of the oven as this may remove the
enamel, which will affect the efficiency of your oven.
Do not use harsh, abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door
glass or the cooktop since they can scratch the surface which may result shattering
of the glass.
You should regularly wipe over the control panel oven door and oven sides using a
soft cloth and mild liquid detergent as spilt liquids may damage the enamel.
Wash enamelled or chrome plated parts of the oven with warm soapy water or with
nonabrasive detergents. Never use abrasive pads to clean enamelled, chromed or
stainless steel surfaces.
When using commercially available stainless steel cleaning products avoid cleaning
any lettering or symbols, as they can become damaged.
The oven comes with catalytic panels for easier cleaning. They are coated in a
special, micro-porous catalytic enamel which oxidises and gradually vaporises
splashes of grease and oil at cooking temperatures above 200° C .If the oven is not
clean after cooking fatty foods, operate the empty oven for 60mins (max.) at
maximum temperature on function fan forced or fan assist.
Never wash or clean self-cleaning panels with abrasive, acid, or alkaline products.
Dust any residue off the cold panels every month or so to keep them working at
maximum efficiency.
To remove the wire side shelves, use a screwdriver to remove the bottom positioning
screw and rotate out of the holes in the oven sides. To replace, repeat process in
reverse.
To remove the catalytic panels (on both sides), first remove the wire side shelves.
Use a screwdriver to remove the positioning screw at the bottom of the catalytic
panel and rotate up out of the top positioning brackets. Replace by repeating the
process in reverse.

Troubleshooting
If the oven does not operate:
 The oven may be off at your switched outlet.
 The timer may not be set to the manual function or have the timer set to
function.
If the interior lighting lamp does not light:
 The lamp may be defective. If defective, you can change it following the
instructions within this manual.
If the catalytic panels stop working:
 Over time the catalytic panels become less effective. Replace.
Cooking (if lower or upper part does not cook equally):
 Control the shelf locations, cooking period and heat values according to the
manual.
Unit smoking when first used:
 This is a result of protective oils being removed and is to be expected with a
first use.
Condensation build-up on the oven door:
 Clean off with dry soft cloth.
Inductive cooktop error codes:
 F3-F8 – Temperature sensor failure – contact Service Centre.
 F9-FE – IGBT temperature sensor failure – contact Service Centre.
 E1-E2 – Abnormal input Voltage – check power supply.
 E3-E4 – Abnormal internal temperatures – check utensil positions.
 E5-E6 – High temperature within cooking zone – allow to cool and restart.
If you still have any problems with your product, please call your Authorised Service
Centre.
