USING THE HOB Touch Controls Selecting and activating a cook zone. The touch controls for your induction have been designed to provide you with finger tip control of your hob, providing accurate and repeatable power settings for cooking and an easy clean surface that can be easily wiped over. 1) Select the required cook zone. When a cook zone is activated the power setting is displayed for each zone individually.
USING THE HOB Special Hob Functions Pause key Central On/Off switch Warning! The central on/off switch enables all of the cooking zones to be switched off simultaneously at a touch of a button, so when you have finished cooking or are called away from the kitchen for any reason you can rest assured that everything is under control and safe.
USING THE HOB Auto Heat Up End of Auto Heat Period Helps to take the worry out of pans boiling over and burning food! No need to stand over the pan, allows you to do other tasks whilst maintaining control over the pan. Initially, while the cook zone is at the highest setting, “A” will flash alternately with your selected lower setting. Then, when the period of highest setting is over, “A” will stop flashing and the cook zone will automatically reduce the heat to your preset lower setting.
USING THE HOB Power Boost Minute Minder Rev up your hob with this feature, temporarily boost the power to a cook zone by a massive 60% The minute minder buzzes when the time set has expired. Does not switch off any zone. The power boost is a function that can be used to temporally boost the normal maximum power for a cook zone by borrowing the available power from a “paired zone”. To operate: All the cook zones have this function apart from the “Griddle Zone ” function.
USING THE HOB Timer auto switch off When the time is up The timer can be set to automatically turn off a cooking zone. 1) The corresponding indicator in the timer display will flash, the timer will beep, and the cook zone will automatically turn off, (The cook zone will display H if the surface is hot). All four cook zones can be simultaneously timed to turn off automatically. Cook zones can be set for a maximum time of 99 minutes.
USING THE HOB Griddle Zone with Bridge Function G r id d le Z o n e Flexibility is what counts. The LH zones can be used as two separate round cooking zones which can be controlled individually or they can be bridged to provide a large oval zone that can be controlled via one setting. Large pans and griddle plates can be placed across the two zones. To Operate: 1)Simultaneously select the LHF & LHR cook zones (“n” will appear in the LHR cook zone display).
USING THE HOB Pans and cookware for induction hobs. Pans and Cookware for induction cooking zones must be made of ferrous material such as cast iron and have magnetic properties. The base must also be of the correct diameter. It’s important that good quality flat bottomed pans are used. If a pan creates a large air gap over the middle of the cooking zone, the accuracy of the temperature sensing can be affected. Always ensure that pan bases are dry before using them on the hob.
USING THE HOB Child Lock “L” To de-activate the child lock: This feature is to help prevent accidental switching on of the hob, especially by young children. 1) Select the On/Off Key. (L will be displayed on all Cook Zones). To Activate: 1) Select the On/Off Key. 2) Simultaneously touch the RHF cook zone and the Power Boost keys, the hob should beep. 3) Remove fingers and touch the RHF cook zone again. (L should appear in all the cook zone displays). 4) Switch off the hob.
USING THE HOB Troubleshooting The hob produces a smell the first few times it is used. Heat a pan full of water on each zone for half an hour. Pans make a noise during cooking This is caused by vibration due to the passage of energy from the hob to the pan. On a high setting this is quite normal for certain types of saucepan. It will not damage the hob. The hob makes a slight clicking sound The fan keeps working for a few minutes after the hob has been turned off. This cools down the electronics.
CLEANING Electric Hob • You can restore the hotplates by using a solid plate cleaner but take care to avoid the red spots on elements. • To prime: Switch on each element in turn for a short while (with no pan on it) at a medium - high setting. This will harden and burn off the coating. • To season: Heat the element for 30 seconds at a medium setting then switch off. Use a minimum amount of unsalted vegetable oil, on a dry cloth or paper towel, and apply a thin coat of oil to the element surface.
