A word on induction cooking
Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, ecient, 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.
iron pot
magnetic circuit
ceramic glass plate
induction coil
induced currents
Before using your new induction hob
• Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
• Remove any protective lm that may still be on your Induction hob.
Using the touch controls
• The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure.
• Use the ball of your nger, not its tip.
• You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
• Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is no object
(e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them.
Even a thin lm of water may make the controls dicult to operate.

[11]
[English]KEN001AKI 18.09.2017 • v09
Choosing the right cookware
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 eciency.If you use smaller pot eciency 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.
• 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.
• If you do not have a magnet:
1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.
2. If does not ash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.
• Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless
steel, aluminium or copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain,
ceramic, and earthenware.

Cooking Guidelines
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 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.
Searing steak
To cook juicy avoursome 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.
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 briey 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.
Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if
you’re using PowerBoost. At extremely high termperatures oil and fat will
ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious re risk.
