2.3 Working Theory
Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, ecient, and economical cooking technology. 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.

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. 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 eciency. If you use smaller pot eciency could be less than expected.
Pot less than 140 mm could be undetected by the hob. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans o the Induction hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.

3.3.6 Default working times
Auto shut down is a safety protection function for your induction hob. It shut down automatically if ever you
forget to turn o your cooking. The default working times for various power levels are shown in the below
table:
Power level 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Default working timer (hour) 8 8 8 4 4 4 2 2 2
When the pot is removed, the induction hob can stop heating immediately and the hob automatically switch
o after 2 minutes.
People with a heart pace maker should consult with their doctor before using this unit.
4. COOKING GUIDELINES
Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if you’re using PowerBoost. At
extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious re risk.
4.1 Cooking Tips
• Whenfoodcomestotheboil,reducethetemperaturesetting.
• Usingalidwillreducecookingtimesandsaveenergybyretainingtheheat.
• Minimizetheamountofliquidorfattoreducecookingtimes.

the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because the avours
develop without overcooking the food. You should also cook egg-based and our thickened sauces below
boiling point.
• Sometasks,includingcookingricebytheabsorptionmethod,mayrequireasettinghigherthanthelowest
setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in the time recommended.
4.1.2 Searing steak
To cook juicy avorsome steaks:
1. Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.
2. Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
3. Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot pan and then lower the
meat onto the hot pan.
4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of the
steak and how cooked you want it. Times may vary from about 2 – 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to
gaugehowcookeditis–thermeritfeelsthemore‘welldone’itwillbe.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and become tender before
serving.

EN - 16
4.1.3 For stir-frying
1. Choose an induction compatible at-based wok or a large frying pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be quick. If cooking large quantities,
cook the food in several smaller batches.
3. Preheat the pan briey and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat rst, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooking zone to a lower setting, return
the meat to the pan and add your sauce.
6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.
7. Serve immediately.
4.2 Detection of Small Articles
When an unsuitable size or non-magnetic pan (e.g. aluminium), or some other small item (e.g. knife, fork,
key) has been left on the hob, the hob automatically go on to standby in 1 minute. The fan will keep cooking
down the induction hob for a further 1 minute.
5. HEAT SETTINGS
The settings below are guidelines only. The exact setting will depend on several factors, including your
cookware and the amount you are cooking. Experiment with the induction hob to nd the settings that best
suit you.

6. CARE AND CLEANING
What? How? Important!
Everyday soiling on
glass (ngerprints,
marks, stains left by
food or non-sugary
spillovers on the
glass)
1. Switch the power to the cooktop
o.
2. Apply a cooktop cleaner while the
glass is still warm (but not hot!)
3. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean
cloth or paper towel.
4. Switch the power to the cooktop
back on.

stained.
Boilovers, melts, and
hot sugary spills on
the glass
Remove these immediately with a
sh slice, palette knife or razor blade
scraper suitable for Induction glass
cooktops, but beware of hot cooking
zone surfaces:
1. Switch the power to the cooktop
o at the wall.
2. Holdthebladeorutensilata30°

1. Switch the power to the cooktop
o.
2. Soak up the spill
3. Wipe the touch control area with a
clean damp sponge or cloth.
4. Wipe the area completely dry with
a paper towel.
5. Switch the power to the cooktop

7. HINTS AND TIPS
Problem Possible causes What to do
The induction hob
cannot be turned on.
No power. Make sure the induction hob is
connected to the power supply and
that it is switched on.
Check whether there is a power
outage in your home or area. If you’ve
checked everything and the problem
persists, call a qualied technician.
The touch controls are
unresponsive.
The controls are locked. Unlock the controls. See section
‘Usingyourinductioncooktop’for
instructions.
The touch controls are
dicult to operate.
There may be a slight lm of water
over the controls or you may be using
the tip of your nger when touching
the controls.
Make sure the touch control area is dry
and use the ball of your nger when
touching the controls.
The glass is being
scratched.
Rough-edged cookware.
Unsuitable, abrasive scourer or
cleaning products being used.
Use cookware with at and smooth
bases. See“Choosing the right
cookware”
See“Care and cleaning”.
Some pans make
crackling or clicking
noises.
This may be caused by the
construction of your cookware
(layers of dierent metals vibrating
dierently).
This is normal for cookware and does
not indicate a fault.
The induction hob
makes a low humming
noise when used on a
high heat setting.
This is caused by the technology of
induction cooking.
This is normal, but the noise should
quieten down or disappear completely
when you decrease the heat setting.
Fan noise coming from
the induction hob.
A cooling fan built into your induction
hob has come on to prevent the
electronics from overheating. It may
continue to run even after you’ve
turned the induction hob o.
This is normal and needs no action. Do
not switch the power to the induction
hob o at the wall while the fan is
running.
Pans do not become
hot and appears in the
display.
The induction hob cannot detect
the pan because it is not suitable for
induction cooking.
The induction hob cannot detect the
pan because it is too small for the
cooking zone or not properly centred
on it.
Use cookware suitable for induction
cooking. See section “Choosing the
right cookware”.
Centre the pan and make sure that its
base matches the size of the cooking
zone.
