A Word on Induction Cooking

Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking technology.
It works by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat directly in the pan, rather than indirectly through heating the glass surface. The glass becomes hot only because the pan eventually warms it up.TECHNIKA TGC6IND-5 Induction
Cooktop - Induction Cooking

Before using your new cooktop

  • Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
  • Remove any protective film that may still be on your Induction hob.

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 are no objects (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the controls difficult to operate.

Choosing the right Cookware

  • **** Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or on the bottom of the pan.

  • You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction.

  • If you do not have a magnet:
    1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.
    2. Follow the steps under ‘To start cooking’ on page 12
    3. If does not flash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.

  • Cookware made by the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless steel, aluminum or copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.

    Note: Turning off the heating zone or hob segment will also cancel the timer.

Cooking Guidelines

Take care when frying as oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if you’re using the Boost setting. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat may ignite spontaneously which could present a serious fire risk.

Cooking Tips

  • When food comes to the boil, reduce the power setting.
  • Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining heat.
  • Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
  • Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has heated through.

Simmering, cooking rice

  • Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85˚C, when bubbles are just rising occasionally to the surface of the water or sauce. It is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because the flavours develop without overcooking the food. You should also cook egg-based and flour thickened sauces below boiling point.
  • Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a setting higher than the lowest setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in the time recommended.

Searing steak
To cook juicy flavoursome steaks:

  1. Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.

  2. Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.

  3. Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot pan and then lower the meat onto the hot pan.

  4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of the steak and how “well done” you want it. Times may vary from about 2 – 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is – the firmer it feels
    the more ‘well done’ it will be.

  5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and become tender before serving.

For stir-frying

  1. Choose an Induction compatible flat-based wok or a large frying pan.
  2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be quick. If cooking large quantities, cook the food in several smaller batches.
  3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
  4. Cook any meat first, and then put it aside and keep warm.
  5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooking zone to alower setting, return the meat to the pan and add your sauce.
  6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.
  7. Serve immediately.

Care and Cleaning

What? How? Important!

Everyday soiling on glass (fingerprints, marks, stains left by food or non- sugary spillovers on the glass)| 1.  Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2. Apply a cooktop cleaner while the glass is still warm (but not hot!)
3.  Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.
4.  Switch the power to the cooktop back on.| • When the power to the cooktop is switched off, there will be no ‘hot surface’ indication but the cooking zone may still be hot! Take extreme care.
• Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon scourers and harsh/abrasive cleaning agents may scratch the glass. Always read the label to check if your cleaner or scourer is suitable.
• Never leave cleaning residue on the cooktop: the glass may become stained.
Boil overs, melts, and hot sugary spills
on the glass| Remove these immediately with a fish slice, palette knife or razor blade scraper suitable for ceramic glass cooktops, but beware of hot cooking zone surfaces:
1.  Switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall.
2. Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° angle and scrape the soiling or spill to a cool area of the cooktop.
3.  Clean the soiling or spill up with a dish cloth or paper towel.
4.  Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday soiling’ on glass above.| • Remove stains left by melted and sugary food or spillovers as soon as possible. If left to cool on the glass, they may be difficult to remove or even permanently damage the glass surface.
• Cut hazard: when the safety cover is retracted, the blade in a scraper is razor-sharp. Use with extreme care and always store safely and out of reach of children.
Spillovers on the touch controls| 1.  Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2.  Soak up the spill
3.  Wipe the touch control area with a clean damp sponge or cloth.
4.  Wipe the area completely dry with a paper towel.
5.  Switch the power to the cooktop back on.| • The cooktop may beep and turn itself off, and the touch controls may not function while there is liquid on them. Make sure you wipe the touch control area dry before turning the cooktop back on.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible causes What to do

Condenstaion forming on rangehood
or surrounding surfaces.| Induction cooking does not directly heat the air around the vessel which can cause condensation to form on colder surfaces surrounding the appliance. This is not a fault| Use rangehoods with larger filter areas. Check rangehood installation height. Turn rangehood on 10mins prior to cooking and use lower speeds when boiling.
The cooktop cannot Be turned on.| No power.| Make sure the cooktop is connected to the power supply and that it is switched on.
Check whether there is a power outage in your home or area. If you’ve checked everything and the problem persists, contact the Technika service department. Unlock the controls. See section ‘Locking the controls’ for instructions.
The touch controls are unresponsive.| The controls are locked.| Unlock the controls. See section ‘Locking the controls’ for instructions.
The touch controls are unresponsive.| The controls are locked.| Unlock the controls. See section ‘Locking the controls’ for instructions.
The touch controls are difficult to operate.| There may be a slight film of water over the controls or you may be using the tip of your finger when touching the controls.| Make sure the touch control area is dry and use the ball of your finger when touching the
