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 fire risk.
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.
•Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
•Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has
heated through.
Simmering, cooking rice
•Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85˚C, when bubbles are just
rising occasionally to the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key to delicious
soups and tender stews because the flavours develop without overcooking the
food. You should also cook egg-based and flour 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.
Searing steak
To cook juicy flavoursome 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 firmer 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.

2. Set the time by touching the or control of the
timer
Hint: Touch the “-“or ”+”control of the timer
once will decrease or increase by 1 minute.
Touch and hold the “-“or ”+”control of the timer
will decrease or increase by 10 minutes.
If the setting time exceeds 99 minutes, the timer
will automatically return to 00 minute.
3. Touching the “-“and ”+”together , the
timer is cancelled, and thewill show ”--”
in the minute display.
4. 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.
NOTE: The red dot next to power level indicator
will illuminate indicating that zone is selected.
5. When cooking timer expires, the corresponding
cooking zone will be switch off automatically.
NOTE: If you want to change the time after the
timer is set, you have to start from step 1

13
1. Choose an induction compatible flat-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 briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat first, 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.

What?
How?
Important!
Everyday soiling on
glass (fingerprints,
marks, stains left by
food or non-sugary
spillovers on the
glass)
1. Switch the power to the
hob off.
2. Apply a hob 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
hob back on.
•When the power to the hob is
switched off, there will be no ‘hot
surface’ indication but the cooking
zone may still be hot! Take extreme
care.
•Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon
scourers and harsh/abrasive
cleaning agents may scratch the
glass. Always read the label to
check if your cleaner or scourer is
suitable.
•Never leave cleaning residue on the
hob: the glass may become stained.
Boilovers, melts,
and
hot sugary spills on
the glass
Remove these immediately
with a fish slice, palette knife or
razor blade scraper suitable for
ceramic glass hobs, but
beware of hot cooking zone
surfaces:
1. Switch the power to the
hob off at the wall.
2. Hold the blade or utensil at a
30° angle and scrape the
soiling or spill to a cool area
of the cooktop.
3. Clean the soiling or spill up
with a dish cloth or paper
towel.
4. Follow steps 2 to 4 for
‘Everyday soiling on glass’
above.
•Remove stains left by melts and
sugary food or spillovers as soon
as possible. If left to cool on the
glass, they may be difficult to
remove or even permanently
damage the glass surface.
•Cut hazard: when the safety cover
is retracted, the blade in a scraper
is razor-sharp. Use with extreme
care and always store safely and
out of reach of children.
Spillovers on the
touch controls
1. Switch the power to the
hob off.
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 back on.
•The hob may beep and turn
itself off, and the touch controls
may not function while there is
liquid on them. Make sure you wipe
the touch control area dry before
turning the hob back on.

2. If the appliance is being connected directly to the mains supply, an omnipolar
circuit breaker must be installed with a minimum gap of 3mm between the
contacts.
3. The installer must ensure that the correct electrical connection has been
made and that it complies with safety regulations.
The power supply should be connected via a double pole switched outlet with 3mm
contact clearance. The circuit must be protected by a 30amp fuse
