Using Your Hob Top
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 and dry.
Before first use, clean the hob surface (see “Cleaning and Care” section).
Switch on one cooking zone at a time for 5 minutes at the maximum setting to
eliminate any smell. Place a saucepan half filled with cold water on each zone
as you burn it off.
To start cooking
After power on, the buzzer beeps once, indicators light up for 1 second then
go out, indicating that the hob is in standby mode.
1. Touch the ON/OFF control; all the indicators will show “-“.
2. Place a pan on the cooking zone that you wish to use.
3. Select a heat setting by touching the”+” or “-“ button. If you don’t choose a

10
heat setting within 1 minute, the ceramic hob will automatically switch off.
When you have finished cooking turn the whole cooktop off by touching the
ON/OFF control.
Residual Heat Warning
“ H” will show which cooking zone is hot to touch. It will disappear when the
surface has cooled down to a safe temperature
Locking the Controls
When the controls are locked, all the controls except the ON/OFF control are
disabled.
To lock the controls
Touch the key lock control. The timer indicator will show “ Lo “
To unlock the controls
1. Make sure the ceramic hob is turned on.

When the hob is in the lock mode, all the controls are disabled except the
ON/OFF , you can turn the ceramic hob off with the ON/OFF control in an
emergency, but you must unlock the hob first prior to the next use.

11
Over-Temperature Protection
A temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the ceramic hob.
When an excessive temperature is monitored, the ceramic hob will stop
operation automatically.

2. Touch the “ +” or “-“ controls of the timer, the minute minder
indicator will flash.
3. Set the time by touching the “ +” or “-“ control
4. Touch the “ +” or “-“ control of the timer once to decrease or
increase by 1 minute. Touch and hold the “ +” or “-“ control of the
timer to decrease or increase by 10 minutes.
5. When the time is set, it will begin to count down immediately. The
display will show the remaining time and the timer indicator will flash
for 5 seconds.
6. The buzzer will beep for 30 seconds and the timer indicator shows

12
“- - “ when the setting time finished.

13
Setting the timer to turn one cooking zone off
1. Touch the the “ +” or “-“ zone you want to set the timer for.
2. Set the time by touching the “ +” or “-“ control of the timer, and
touch the “ +” or “-“ to set the power to the level you want. Touch
the “ +” or “-“ control of the timer once to decrease or increase by 1
minute. Touch and hold the “ +” or “-“ control of the timer will
decrease or increase by 10 minutes. Maximum setting is 99 minutes.
3. When the time is set, it will begin to count down immediately. The
display will show the remaining time and the timer indicator flash for
5 seconds. The red dot next to power level indicator will illuminate
indicating that zone is selected.
4. When cooking timer expires, the corresponding cooking zone will be
switched off automatically.
Setting the timer to turn more than one cooking zone off
1. If more than one heating zone use this function, the timer indicator
will show the lowest time.(e.g. zone 1# setting time of 10 minutes,
zone 2# setting time of 5 minutes, the timer indicator shows “5”.)
NOTE: The red dot next to power level indicator will flash.
2. When cooking timer expires, the corresponding cooking zone will be
switch off automatically.
WARNING! There is a risk of burns from residual heat
Warning! Do not allow any object to drop on the hob. Never use a hob
which is cracked as water may leak through to the electrics. If
the hob cracks switch off the appliance immediately as there
is a risk of electric shock
IMPORTANT: The hob surface is tough; however it is not unbreakable and can
be damaged. Do not use the hob if the surface becomes broken
or cracked.

your mains supply
 Do not clean using caustic creams, abrasive cleaning powders, wire
wool or hard tools on any parts of this hob. Use warm soapy water or
apply a ceramic cleaner
 The hob can be damaged if excess cleaning liquids are not
immediately removed
 Remove any residues of cleaning agents with warm soapy water
 Do not clean your hob with a steam cleaner

but be careful of burns
 Wipe the ceramic surface using a damp cloth
 Wipe dry with a soft and dry cloth
 Do not scrape dried residues from the glass ceramic surface
 Remove yellow stains with vinegar or lemon juice
 Sugar-based foods must be cleaned before the surface cools down
 The colour of the ceramic top may fade over time, this is not a defect
 Fruit juices cause stains that can be permanent

15
Top Tips
 Avoid using pans on the hob that are unstable as they may be easily
tipped over
 Use pans that have sufficient capacity for the amount of food being
cooked so that they don’t boil over
 Use dark coloured enamelled cookware to maximise heat
transmission
 Always position pans centrally over each hob zone
 Select the burner which is suitable for the size of the bottom of the
pot to be used
 Thick based pots will conduct heat more effectively
 When moving a pan from one zone to another, lift the pan and do not
slide it
 Ensure that the base of the pan is dry before placing it on the burner
 Keep children and animals out of reach of the hob during and after
cooking
 After use the hob remains very hot for a prolonged period of time, do
not touch or place any object on top of the hob
 Never place cutlery or lids on the hob as they will get hot and could
cause serious burns
 When deep fat frying never fill the pan more than one third full of
and do not use a lid; Never leave oil unattended
 Fry small quantities of frozen food at a time as the temperature
lowers causing the food to be greasy if too large a quantity is cooked
 Dry food before lowering into hot oil
 Keep the outside of your pans free from streaks of oil
 Do not store chemicals, food stuffs, pressurised containers in or
on the cooker or in cabinets immediately above or next to the
cooker
 Do not heat unopened food containers as pressure can build
up which may cause the container to burst
 Do not place flammable or plastic items on or near the hob
zones
 Do not allow fat or oil to build up in the oven trays, grill pan or on the
oven base

16
 Do not allow electrical fittings or cables to come into contact
with areas on the appliance that get hot
 Be careful if using alcohol as a cooking ingredient, there is a danger of
ignition
