Control Panel: 1 5 1 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 2 4 3 Heating zone selection controls Power / Timer adjusting controls Keylock control ON/OFF control Timer control 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, dry, and that there is nothing (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them.
To Switch Heating Zones On When the mains power supply is switched on, the buzzer beeps once and all the indicators light up for 1 second, then go out. This indicates that the ceramic hob has entered standby mode. Touch the ON/OFF control, all the indicators show “-“. Place a suitable pan on the cooking zone that you wish to use (see “Efficient Use of Your Hob” section for selection of suitable pans). Ensure the bottom of the pan and the surface of the cooking zone are clean and dry.
To Switch Heating Zones Off Touch the heating zone selection control that corresponds to the zone you wish to switch off (for example back right ). Turn the cooking zone off by using the “+” or “-“ controls to scroll down to “ 0 “. Alternatively, the zone may be switched off by touching the “+” and “-“ controls together. To switch all heating zones off at once it is only necessary to touch the ON/OFF control.
To Unlock the Controls: Touch and hold the key lock control for approx. 2 seconds. The controls are now unlocked and the ceramic hob is now ready for use. Warning: If the hob is switched off using the “ON/OFF” control while the controls are locked, it will be necessary to unlock the hob using the process above BEFORE the hob is next switched on. Over-Temperature Protection The ceramic hob is fitted with a sensor to monitor the temperature inside the hob.
Using the Timer You can use the timer in two different ways: • • You can use it as a minute minder. In this case, the timer will not turn any cooking zone off when the set time is up. You can set it to turn one or more cooking zone(s) off after the set time. You can set the timer for up to 99 minutes. Using the Timer as a Minute Minder Make sure the ceramic hob is switched on. Note: you can use the minute minder even if you’re not using any cooking zones.
seconds and the timer indicator shows “- - “. To cancel the beep touch either the “+” or “-“ control. To cancel the timer (at any point) touch the “+” and “-“ controls together, the timer is cancelled, and ”--“ will show in the minute display. Setting the Timer to Turn One Cooking Zone Off Touch the heating zone selection control (eg back right ). Touch the timer control; the timer indicator will show “10”. Adjust the time setting by touching the “+” or “-“ controls.
When the cooking time is reached, the corresponding cooking zone will switch off automatically and the beeper will sound an individual beep. Setting the Timer to Turn More Than One Cooking Zone Off If the timer is set to turn off more than one heating zone, the timer indicator will show the lowest time (e.g. if zone “1” is set to 10 minutes and zone “2” is set to 5 minutes, the timer indicator shows 5 minutes). Note: The red dot next to the power level indicator with the shortest running time will flash.
Efficient Use of Your Hob Before using your hob for the first time, switch the zones on for a FEW SECONDS to burn off any grease left over from the manufacturing process. The ceramic glass retains heat, so to make best use of the residual heat, switch off the zone five minutes prior to the end of cooking. To reduce the cooking time, the zone can be set to the maximum setting at the beginning of cooking, and then reduced during cooking time.
suitable material and have the correct type of base. The base should be flat and smooth, as any rough part on the pan base could scratch the ceramic hob top. Choose pans which are between the sizes recommended in the table above, and with bases that are as non-reflective as possible, e.g. dull and dark. Only pans recommended for use on ceramic hobs should be used.
Care and Maintenance Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before undertaking any cleaning or maintenance. You should use a nonabrasive cleaner to clean the hob top. Any abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control panel markings.
