1. Before You Start... Ventilation Your cooker should give you many years of trouble-free cooking if installed and operated correctly. It is important that you read this section before you start, particularly if you have not used an induction cooker before. CAUTION: The use of a cooking appliance results in nn the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed.
Always be certain that the controls are in the OFF position when the oven is not in use, and before attempting to clean the cooker. Fig. 1-1 Take care when touching the marked cooking areas nn of the hob. When the oven is on, DO NOT leave the oven door nn open for longer than necessary, otherwise the ArtNo.324-0001 Steam burst control knobs may become very hot. When using the grill, make sure that the grill pan nn is in position and pushed fully in, otherwise the control knobs may become very hot.
DO NOT use water on grease fires and never pick nn up a flaming pan. Turn off the controls and then Fig. 1-3 smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well fitting lid or baking tray. If available, use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher. Take care that no water seeps into the appliance. This appliance is heavy so take care when moving it. nn Hob Care NEVER allow anyone to climb or stand on the hob.
2. Cooker Overview DocNo.025-0012 - Overview - 110 ceramic - Elan Fig. 2.1 A B C D E F Your induction cooker (Fig.2-1) has the following features: Fig. 2.2 A. B. C. D. E. F. 5 induction cooking zones Control panel Glide-out grill Slow cook oven Programmable multifunction oven Fan oven The Hob Use only pans that are suitable for induction hobs. We recommend stainless steel, enamelled steel pans or cast iron pans with enamelled bases.
The very best pans have bases that are very slightly curved up when cold (Fig.2-3). If you hold a ruler across the bottom you will see a small gap in the middle. When they heat up the metal expands and lies flat on the cooking surface. Fig. 2.4 Max: 1.85 kW Boost: 2.5 kW Max: 1.85 kW Boost: 3.0 kW Max: 1.85 kW Boost: 2.5 kW Zone 1 Zone 3 Zone 5 Make sure that the base of the pan is clean and dry to prevent any residue burning onto the hob panel. This also helps prevent scratches and deposits.

A B D The maximum time this setting can be used is 2 hours.
The Glide-out Grill Fig. 2.9 CAUTION: This appliance is for cooking purposes nn only. It must not be used for other purposes, for example room heating. CAUTION: Accessible parts may be hot when the grill nn is in use. Young children should be kept away. Open the door and pull the grill pan carriage forward using the handle (Fig.2-9). ArtNo.331-0001Grill pan pulled forwards The grill has two elements that allow either the whole area of the pan to be heated or just the right-hand half. Fig. 2.
Fan Oven This function operates the fan and the heating element around it. An even heat is produced throughout the oven, allowing you to cook large amounts quickly. The Ovens The clock must be set to the time of day before the lefthand oven will work. See the following section on ‘The Clock’ for instructions on setting the time of day. References to ‘left-hand’ and ‘right-hand’ ovens apply as viewed from the front of the appliance.
Conventional Oven (Top and Base Heat) This function combines the heat from the top and base elements. It is particularly suitable for roasting and baking pastry, cakes and biscuits. The Fan Oven Fan ovens circulate hot air continuously, which means faster, more even cooking. The recommended cooking temperatures for a fan oven are generally lower than those for a non-fan oven.
Operating the Ovens Fig. 2.12 Fan Oven Turn the oven knob to the desired temperature (Fig. 2.12). The oven indicator light will glow until the oven has reached the temperature selected. It will then cycle on and off during cooking. Multifunction Oven The multifunction oven has two controls: a function selector and a temperature setting knob (Fig. 2.13). Turn the function selector control to a cooking function. Turn the oven temperature knob to the temperature required (Fig. 2.14).
