Before using the Hob
• Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
• Remove any protective lm that may still be on your ceramic hob.
Touch controls
Use the at of your nger, not the tip. The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to apply any
pressure. The touch control keys take approximately 1 second to respond to your touch. Always ensure
the touch control area is clean, dry and free from any objects (e.g. utensils, tea towels and cloths),
spillages, water and no strong lights shining on the hob controls when turning the hob on as it may
make the controls di󰀩cult to operate. A beeping sound will be activated and will keep on beeping every
10 seconds, to attract your attention, please remove any objects and clean the area as appropriate.
Choosing the right Cookware
• Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the
packaging or on the bottom of the pan.
• You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a magnet test. Move a magnet
towards the base of the pan. If it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction. The base of the pan
must be magnetic across the whole diameter of the base.
• If you do not have a magnet:
1. Place the pan on a cooking zone, switch the zone on and select a power level.
2. If does not ash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable
• Cookware made from the following materials are not suitable: pure stainless steel, aluminium or
copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.

9
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits at against the glass. Use a pan which has a base
diameter of at least 145mm. Using a pan which is slightly wider than the glass circle printed on the
glass will maximise energy-e󰀩ciency. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans o󰀨 the ceramic hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
Start cooking
After switching the hob on, the buzzer will beep once. All the indicator lights light up for a second and
go out, to indicate that the induction hob is now in standby mode.
1. Touch the on/o󰀨 power key until you hear a beep and all the displays
show dashes. This indicates that the hob is now in standby mode.
2. Place a suitable pan on the cooking zone that you wish to use.
• Make sure the bottom of the pan and the bottom of the cooking
zone are clean and dry.
3. Touch the relevant heating zone selection control. An indicator
will ash next to the control to indicate which zone is currently
selected.

10
4. While the zone selection indicator is ashing, touch the plus or
minus key to select the required power level.
• If a power level is not selected within 1 minute, the induction hob
will automatically switch o󰀨.
• When needing to modify the power level, touch the relevant heating
selection zone key again until the power level indicator is ashing.
While the power level indicator is ashing, use the plus or minus
key to adjust the power level.
Ifthedisplayashes alternately with the heat setting
This means that:
• You have not placed a pan on the correct cooking zone or;
• The pan you’re using is not suitable for induction cooking or;
• The pan is too small or not properly centered on the cooking zone. Use induction pans with a base
diameter of at least 145mm.
No heating takes place unless there is a suitable pan on the cooking zone. The display will
automatically turn o󰀨 after 1 minute if no suitable pan is placed on it.
Finish cooking
Touch the relevant heating zone selection control for the zone that
you wish to turn o󰀨. An indicator will ash next to the control to
indicate which zone is currently selected.
Turn the cooking zone o󰀨 by touching the minus
key repeatedly until the display shows 0, or by
touching the plus and minus keys together.
Turn the whole hob o󰀨 by touching the On/O󰀨 control key.

to set the cooking duration time.
A short touch of the plus or minus key
increases/decreases the time by one minute at a time.
A long press of the plus or minus key increases/decreases time
by 10 minutes at a time.

13
4. About 5 seconds after the last press of the plus or minus key, the timer
display stops ashing, and the cooking duration time is accepted and
starts to count down on the display.
A white dot will ash next to the relevant power level indicator to show
which zone is currently being controlled by the timer.
5. When the cooking duration time has elapsed, the relevant cooking
zone will be switched o automatically.
If there are other zones in use which are not being controlled by the timer, they will continue to
operate and will not be switched o automatically.
Note: If there are other cooking zones in use, which are not being controlled by the timer, then they
will continue to operate when the cooking duration time has elapsed, and will not be switched o
automatically.
Residual Heat Warning
“H” will show which cooking zone is hot to touch after cooking has nished.
It will disappear when the surface has cooled down to a safe temperature.
It can also be used as an energy saving function if you want to heat further
pans, use the hotplate that is still hot.
Note: Please be aware that the glass surface may still be warm for a while, even after the ‘H’ indicator
has disappeared.
Default working times
Auto shut down is a safety protection function for your induction hob. It shuts down automatically if ever
you forget to turn o󰀨 a cooking zone. 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

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 Ceramic hob to nd the settings that
best suit you.

13 amp – Plug-In Induction Hob Power Management System
• This hob uses a power management system to ensure that the maximum power input of 3000 watts
is not exceeded at any time.
• In practice, this means that the sum of the power levels on all four zones cannot add up to more
than 12.
• For example, if one zone is in use at power level 8, and then a second zone is put on at power level
7 (trying to make 8+7=15), then the power level of the rst zone will be automatically reduced to
power level 5 (so that 5+7=12).
• If needing to use all 4 zones, it is best to bring each pan to the boil one at a time, before reducing
the pans to a simmer.
