Operating the cooking hob A Hob on/off sensor B Power level/residual heat displays B1 The decimal point indicates the activated timer function C Cooking zone selection sensors E Sensor (-) and (+) H Clock display Induction hotplate function principle • Ceramic glass hob is fitted with three or four hotplates. Hob surface is completely flat and smooth, without edges to accumulate dirt. • The hob is fitted with high power induction hotplates.
Appropriate cookware for induction hotplates • Induction hotplate will function perfectly only if appropriate cookware is used. • During cooking, cookware should be placed in the middle of the cooking zone. • The appropriate cookware is the one which enables induction, for example steel, enamel or steel alloy cookware. Pots made from steel alloy with copper or aluminum bottom, or glass pots are inappropriate.
Pan recognition One of the many advantages of an induction cooking hob is the pan, or cookware, recognition. Even if there is no cookware on the cooking zone, or if a pan with a diameter smaller than that of the cooking zone, is placed on it, no heat is wasted. If the pan is much smaller than the cooking zone, it may not be perceived / recognized by the cooking zone. When the cooking zone is switched on, a symbol “U” will light up on the power level display.
Energy saving tips 389076 10 • When buying cookware be careful in selecting size: pot diameter usually refers to the top edge of the dish, which is often larger than the dish bottom. • Steam-pressure pots (economic pots), which use pressure in tightly sealed interior, are especially economic, and save both time and energy. Shorter cooking time leaves more vitamins in food.
HOB CONTROL • After connecting the glass ceramic hob to the power mains, all symbols on the display will light up briefly. The cooking hob is then ready for operation. • The cooking hob is fitted with electronic sensors which are activated by touching the designated surface areas with your finger for at least one second. • Each time a sensor is activated, this is confirmed by a beep. • Do not place any objects on the sensor area. Make sure the sensor area is always clean.
Powering off the cooking hob • The cooking hob may be switched off anytime by touching the on/off sensor (A). All settings will be deleted, except for the minute minder (see section »Timer«). Engaging the control unit lock / child safety lock By activating the control unit lock, you can prevent the operation or use of the cooking zones. Thus, the control unit lock also works as a child safety lock. Activating the child lock • The hob must be switched off.
Note: The front left cooking zone features the super power function. In a cooking zone with this function, extra power is activated for five minutes; then, the zone switches to level 9. Activating the Power Boost • Press the relevant sensor (C) to select the cooking zone. Use the »–« or »+« sensor (E) to choose the power level 9; then, press »+« immediately. »P« will appear on the power level display.
• Induction cooking hob is also fitted with a builtin overheating protection device that protects the electronic parts from damage. The protection device operates at several levels. When the cooking zone temperature increases considerably, the cooking power is reduced automatically. If this is not enough, the power of currently heated cooking zones is reduced further or shut off entirely. In this case, »E2« will be indicated on the display.
• Value can be set from 01 to 99 minutes. Shut-off timer can be set for each cooking zone. • To check the remaining time, select the corresponding cooking zone and activate the timer function. Press the »–« or »+« sensor (E) to change the setting. (Press the »–« and »+« sensor (E) simultaneously and sequentially to choose between active settings.) • When the set time expires, »00« will flash on the display; in addition, relevant decimal point will flash at the shut-off timer. A short beep will be heard.
Safety functions and error display The cooking hob is fitted with overheating protection sensors. If the temperature rises too high, individual cooking zones or even the entire cooking hob can be temporarily switched off automatically. Error, possible cause, solution • Continuous beep and Er03 flashing on the display. - Water spilt over sensor surface, or an object placed over the sensors. Wipe the sensor surface. • Flashing E/2 - The cooking zone has overheated. Wait until it cools down.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF CERAMICGLASS HOB Cleaning Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 After each use of the glass-ceramic hob, wait for it to cool down and clean it; otherwise, even the smallest food residue will be burnt onto the hot surface next time you use the appliance. For regular cleaning and maintenance of the glass-ceramic surface, use special conditioning agents which form a protective layer on the surface, shielding it from dirt.
Figure 5 Sugar and sugar-laden food may permanently damage the glass-ceramic surface (Figure 5); therefore, they should be removed from the glass-ceramic surface as soon as possible, although the cooking zone may still be hot (Figure 4). Any change in the color of the glass-ceramic surface does not affect its operation or the stability of the surface.
Installing the foam gasket Before inserting the appliance into the opening in the kitchen worktop, the supplied foam gasket must be attached to the lower side of the glass ceramic (glass) cooking hob (see figure above). Do not install the appliance without the foam gasket! The gasket should be attached to the appliance in the following way: - Remove the protective film from the gasket.
- SIVK7 • Cooking hobs can be installed into worktops that are 30 to 50 mm thick. • If the board is thicker than 40 mm, its inner edge should be trimmed, or ground (Figure A). Thus, sufficient air circulation will be provided. • If the thickness of your counter top exceeds 30 mm, then the opening for the hob should be made in the middle of the oven, with sufficient clearance from the front edge of the counter top so that the induction hob does not touch the oven shield.
• To enable normal operation of electronic components of the induction hob, sufficient air circulation must be provided. A Lower kitchen cabinet with a drawer • An opening at least 140 mm high must be provided on the back wall of the cabinet, along its entire width. Furthermore, a minimum of 6 mm clearance must be provided at the front side, along the entire width of the cabinet. • The hob is fitted with a fan located in its lower part.
B Lower kitchen cabinet with an oven • Installing the oven under an induction hob is possible with oven types EVP4.., EVP2.., which are fitted with a cooling fan. Before installing the oven, the rear wall of the kitchen cabinet should be removed. Furthermore, a minimum of 6 mm clearance should be provided at the front side, along the entire width of the cabinet.
The appliance is designed for two-phase connection; it can also be connected to a single phase. • Two-phase connection Install the jumper connectors on terminals 4 and 5. • Single-phase connection Install the jumper connectors on terminals 4 and 5, and terminals 1 and 2. Note: Connection 3 is free.
CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLAY • Connections may be carried out by a qualified technician only. The earthing protection must comply with the standing regulations. • Connection terminals are revealed when the connection box cover is removed. • Prior any attempted connection check that the voltage indicated on the rating plate is in line with your home power supply. • The rating plate is located underneath the appliance. • The appliance is manufactured for use with the power supply voltage 230 V ~.
Single-phase connection with total power limiter (only in model with four cooking zones and without the bridge function) • If your home main fuse does not allow 32-ampere current, then the function of total power limiter can be activated on the hob so that the current never exceeds 16 A. • If you activate the total power limiter, then the power of each cooking zone may only be increased until total power reaches the limit. When the limit is reached, the hob will beep and the setting display will flash.
