• Do not install the hob over a heater without a fan, over a dishwasher, refrigerator, freezer or washing machine.

• If the hob has been built in the kitchen worktop, metal objects located in a cabinet below can be heated to high temperatures through the air flowing from the hob ventilation system. As a result it is recommended to use a partition (see Figure 2).

• Please follow the instructions for care and cleaning of induction hob. In the event of misuse or mishandling warranty may be void.

HOW TO SAVE ELECTRICITY

Using the electricity in a responsible manner not only saves money, but also helps protect the environment. So let’s save electricity! This is how it’s done:

• Use the correct cookware.
  Cookware with flat and a thick base can save up to 1/3 of electricity. Please remember to co-ver cookware with the lid, otherwise electricity consumption increased four times!

• Always keep the cooking zones and cookware bases clean.
  Dirt prevents proper heat transfer. Often burnt stains can be removed only with agents harm-ful to the environment.

• Avoiding unnecessary lifting the lid to peek into the pot.

• Do not install the hob in the immediate vicinity of refrigerator / freezer.
  The electricity consumption is then unnecessarily increased.

OPERATION

Before using the appliance for the first time

• Thoroughly clean your induction hob first. The induction hob should be treated with the same care as a glass surface.
  Switch on the ventilation in the room or open a window, as the appliance could emit an unpleasant smell during first use.
  Operate the appliance while observing all safety guidelines.

Induction cooking zone operation principle

Electric oscillator powers a coil placed inside the appliance. This coil produces a magnetic field, which induces eddy cur-rents in the cookware.
These eddy currents induced by the magnetic field cause the cookware to heat up.

This requires the use of pots and pans whose base is ferromagnetic, in other words suscep-tible to magnetic fields.
Overall, induction technology is characterized by two advantages:

• The heat is only emitted by the cookware and its use is maximized,
  There is no thermal inertia, since the cooking starts immediately when the pot is placed on the hob and ends once it is removed.

Certain sounds can be heard during normal use of the induction hob, which do not affect its correct operation.

• Low-frequency humming. This noise arises when the cookware is empty and stops when water is poured or food is placed in the cookware.
• High-frequency whizz. This noise arises in cookware made of multiple layers of different materials at maximum heat setting. The noise intensifies when using two or more cooking zones at maximum heat setting. The noise will stop or reduce when heat setting is reduced.
• Creaking noise. This noise arises in cookware made of multiple layers of different materials. The noise intensity depends on how the food is cooked.
• Buzzing. Buzzing can be heard when electronics cooling fan operates.

The noises that can be heard during the normal appliance operation are the result of the cooling fan operation, cooking method, cookware dimensions, cookware material and the heat setting. These noises are normal and do not indicate a fault.

The protective device:
If the hob has been installed correctly and is used properly, any protective devices are rarely required.

• Fan: protects and cools controls and power components. It can operate at two different speeds and is activated automatically. Fan runs until the electronic system has sufficiently cooled down regardless of the appliance or the cooking zones being turned on or off.
• Temperature sensor: Temperature of electronic circuits is continuously monitored by a temperature sensor. If temperature is raised beyond a safe level, this protection system will reduce cooking zone heat setting or shut down the cooking zones adjacent to the overheated electronic circuits.
• Pan detection: allows the hob to detect pans placed on a cooking zone. Small objects placed on the cooking zone (eg, spoon, knife, ring …) will not be recognized as pans and the hob will not operate.

Pan detector
Pan detector is installed in induction hobs. Pan detector starts heating automatically when a pan is detected on a cooking zone and stops heating when it is removed. This helps save electricity.

• When an suitable pan is placed on a cooking zone, the display shows the heat setting.
• Induction requires the use of suitable cookware with ferromagnetic base.

If a pan is not placed on a cooking zone or the pan is unsuitable, the symbol is displayed. The cooking zone will not operate. If a pan is not detected within 10 minutes, the cooking zone will be switched off.
Switch off the cooking zone using the touch control sensor field rather than by removing the pan.

Pan detector does not operate as the on/off sensor.

The induction hob is equipped with electronic touch control sensor fields, which are operated by touching the marked area with a finger.
Each time a sensor field is touched, an acoustic signal can be heard.

When switching the appliance on or off or changing the heat setting, attention should be paid that only one sensor field at a time is touched. When two or more sensor fields are touched at the same time (except timer and child lock), the appliance ignores the control signals and may trigger a fault indication if sensor fields are touched for a long time. When you finish cooking switch off the cooking zone using touch control sensor fields and do not rely solely on the pan detector.

The high-quality cookware is an essential condition for efficient induction cooking.

• Select cookware for induction cooking

Cookware characteristics.

• Always use high quality cookware, with perfectly flat base. This prevents the formation of local hot spots, where food might stick. Pots and pans with thick steel walls provide superior heat distribution.
• Make sure that cookware base is dry: when filling a pot or when using a pot taken out of the refrigerator make sure its base is completely dry before placing it on the cooking zone. This is to avoid soiling the surface of the hob.
• Lid prevents heat from escaping and thus reduces heating time and lowers energy consumption.
• To determine if cookware is suitable, make sure that its base attracts a magnet.
• Cookware base has to be flat for optimal temperature control by the induction module.
• The concave base or deep embossed logo of the manufacturer interfere with the temperature induction control module and can cause overheating of the pot or pan.
• Do not use damaged cookware such as cookware with deformed base due to excessive heat.
• When you use large ferromagnetic base cookware, whose diameter is less than the total diameter of the cookware, only the ferromagnetic base heats up. This results in a situation where it is not possible to uniformly distribute the heat in the cookware. If the ferromagnetic area is reduced due to inclusion of aluminum parts then the effective heated area can be reduced. Problems with the detection of the cookware could arise or cook- ware may not be detected at all. To achieve optimum cooking results, the diameter of the ferromagnetic base should match that of the cooking zone. If cookware is not detected in a given cooking zone, it is advisable to try it in a smaller cooking zone.

For induction cooking us only ferromagnetic base materials such as:

• Enameled steel
• Cast iron
• Special stainless steel cookware designed for induction cooking.

Marking of kitchen cookware|  | | Check for marking indicating that the cookware is suitable for induction cooking.
---|---|---|---

Use magnetic cookware (enameled steel, ferrite stainless steel, cast iron). The easiest way to determine if your cookware is suitable is to perform the „magnet test”. Find a generic magnet and check if it sticks to the base of the cookware.
Stainless Steel| Cookware is not detected
With the exception of the ferromagnetic steel cookware
Aluminum| Cookware is not detected

Control Panel

• Immediately after the appliance is connected to electrical mains, all displays will light up briefly. Your induction hob is then ready for use.
• The induction hob is equipped with electronic touch control sensor fields, which are operated by touching with a finger for at least 1 second.
• Touching of a sensor field is accompanied by an acoustic signal to acknowledge.

No objects should be placed on the sensor fields (this could cause an error). Touch sensor fields should be always kept clean.

Switch on the appliance
To switch on the appliance touch and hold the on/off sensor field (1) for at least 1 second. All displays (3) will show the number “0”.

If none of the sensor fields is touched within 10 seconds, the appliance switches itself off.

Switch on the cooking zone
Once the appliance is switched on using the on/off touch sensor (1), select a cooking zone (5) within the next 10 seconds.

1. When a cooking zone selection sensor field (5) is touched, “0” on the corresponding heat setting indicator display will pulsate.
2. Set the desired heat setting using the “+” (2) or “-” (4) sensor fields.

If none of the sensor fields is touched within 10 seconds of switching on the appliance, the cooking zone switches off.
A cooking zone is active when its display shows a digit or a letter. This indicates the cooking zone is ready for the heat setting to be set or changed.

Selecting the cooking zone heat setting
When the cooking zone display (3) shows pulsating “0”, start setting the desired heat setting using the “+” (2) or “-” (4) sensor field.

Switch off cooking zones

• A given cooking zone must be active. Heat setting display pulsates.
• To switch off a cooking zone touch the on/off sensor field or touch the sensor (5) for 3 seconds.

Switch off the appliance

• The appliance operates when at least one cooking zone is on.
• To switch off the appliance touch the on/off sensor (1).

If a cooking zone is still hot, the relevant display (3) will show the letter “H” to indicate residual heat.

Booster function “P”
The Booster Function increases the nominal power of the 210-220 mm cooking zone from 2000W to 3000W, the 160-180 mm cooking zone from 1200W to 1400W, the 280 mm cooking zone from 2600W to 3700W.
In order to activate the Booster function, select the cooking zone, with sensor field (11) set the Booster function. The letter “P” will be shown on the display. To turn off the Booster function, touch the Booster function selection sensor field (11) of the active cooking zone or touch sensor fields “+” (2) and “-” (4), or lift the pot from the cooking zone.

For 280 mm, 210-220 mm and 160-180 mm cooking zone, operation of the Booster function is limited to 10 minutes. Once the Booster function is automatically de-activated, the cooking zone continues to operate at its nominal power.
The Booster function can be reactivated, provided the appliance electronic circuits and induction coils are not overheated.
When the pot is lifted from the cooking zone when the Booster function is in operation, it remains active and the countdown continues.
When the appliance electronic circuits or induction coils overheat when the Booster function is in operation, it is automatically deactivated. The cooking zone continues to operate at its nominal power.

Booster function control
Depending on the model, the cooking zones are paired vertically or crosswise. Total power is shared within the paired cooking zones.
If you attempt to enable the Booster function for both cooking zones simultaneously, the maximum power available would be exceeded. In that case the heat setting of the first activated cooking zone will be reduced to the highest level available.

The child lock function
The Child Lock function protects the appliance from inadvertent operation by children. The appliance can be operated once the child lock function has been released.
The Child Lock function can be set when the appliance turned on or off.

Turn Child Lock on/off
Touch and hold sensor (7) for 5 seconds to turn Child Lock on/off. Indicator light (9) is on when the Child Lock function is on.

The Child Lock function remains set until it is released even after the appliance has been switched off and then switched on again. Disconnecting the appliance from electrical mains deactivates the Child Lock.

Residual heat indicator
Heat energy that remains accumulated in the cooking zone after cooking is called the residual heat. The appliance displays two different levels of residual heat. When a cooking zone temperature is above 60°C and the cooking zone or the appliance is switched off, the relevant cooking zone display will show the letter “H”. Residual heat indication is displayed as long as the cooking zone temperature exceeds 60°C. When a cooking zone temperature is between 45°C and 60°C, the relevant cooking zone display will show the letter “h” indicating low residual heat. When a cooking zone temperature is below 45°C the residual heat indication is turned off.

When residual heat indicator is on, do not touch the cooking zone as there is a risk of burns and do not place on it any items sensitive to heat!
During failure of power supply “H” residual heat indicator is not displayed. However, cooking zones may still be hot!

Limiting the operating time
In order to increase efficiency, the induction hob is fitted with a operating time limiter for each of the cooking zones. The maximum operating time is set according to the last heat setting selected.
If you do not change the heat setting for a long time (see table) then the associated cooking zone is automatically switched off and the residual heat indicator is activated. However, you can switch on and operate individual cook-ing zones at any time in accordance with the operating instructions.

Automatic warm-up function

• Touch sensor (5) to activate the selected cooking zone
• Then touch “+” (2) or “-” (4) to set the desired heat setting in the 1-8 range and then touch sensor (5) again.
  The display will alternate between the let-ter A and the heat setting.

After a certain time of operation at boosted power, the cooking zone switches back to the heat setting set, which will be shown on the display.

Keeping food warm
Keep warm function allows for keeping food warm on a cooking zone. The selected cooking zone operates at a low heat setting. Cooking zone’s heat setting is automatically adjusted so that food temperature is kept at a temperature of about 65°C. Thanks to this, ready to serve, warm food re-tains its taste and does not stick to the pot’s bottom. This function can be also used to melt butter or chocolate.
For the keep food warm function to operate correctly, use a flat base pot or frying pan, so that base temperature is accurately measured by the temperature sensor fitted in the cooking zone.
The Keep Warm function can be activated for any cooking zone.
Due to a risk of the growth of microorganisms, it is not recommended to keep food warm for a long time, so the Keep Warm function is switched off after 2 hours.

Touch sensor (12) to turn on/off the Keep Warm function when a cooking zone is active.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Proper routine maintenance and cleaning of the appliance can significantly extend its trouble-free operation.

When cleaning induction hobs, the same principles apply as for glass surfaces. Do not use under any cir-cumstances any abrasive or caustic cleaners or scouring powders or pads! Do not use steam or pressure cleaners.

Cleaning after each use

• Wipe light stains with a damp cloth without detergent. The use of dishwashing liquid may cause a bluish surface discoloration. These persistent stains cannot always be removed right away, even using a special cleaner.
• Firmly adhering dirt can be carefully removed with a scraper. Then wipe the cooking surface with a damp cloth.

Removing stains

• Bright stains of pearl color (residual aluminum) can be removed from the cool hob using a special cleaning agent. Limestone residue (eg. after evaporated water) can be removed by vinegar or a special cleaning agent.
• Do not turn off the cooking zone when removing sugar, food containing sugar, plastic and aluminum foil. Immediately and thoroughly scrape the leftovers off the hot cooking zone using a sharp scraper. Once the bulk of the stain is removed the hob can be turned off and clean the cooled off cooking zone with a special cleaning agent.

Do not use any descaling agents to clean the hob.

Special cleaners are available in supermarkets, electrical and home appliance shops, drug stores, as well as retail food shops and kitchen showrooms. Scrapers can be pur-chased in DIY and construction equipment stores, as well as in shops carrying painting accessories.

Never apply a detergent on the hot cooking zone. It is best to let the cleaner dry and then wipe it wet. Any traces of the detergent should be wiped off clean with a damp cloth before re-heating. Otherwise, it can be corrosive.
Warranty will be void if you do not follow the above guidelines!

Periodic inspections
In addition to normal cleaning and maintenance:

• Carry out periodic checks of touch controls and other elements. After the warranty expires, have authorized service inspect the appliance every two years,
• Repair and identified problems,
• Carry out periodic maintenance of the hob.

Important!
If the hob’s controls do not respond for whatever reason, then turn off the main circuit breaker or remove the fuse and contact customer service.
