HOW TO SAVE ELECTRICITY

Responsibly using electricity 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 cover cookware with the lid, otherwise, electricity consumption will increase 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 harmful to the environment.
• Avoiding unnecessary lifting of the lid to peek into the pot.
• Do not install the hob near the refrigerator/freezer. The electricity consumption is then unnecessarily increased.

UNPACKING

• The appliance was protected from damage at the time of transport. After unpacking, please dispose of all elements of the packaging in a way that will not cause damage to the environment.
• All materials used for packaging the appliance are environmentally friendly; they are 100% recyclable and are marked with the appropriate symbol.
• Important! Keep the packaging material(bags, Styrofoam pieces, etc.) out of reach of children during unpacking.

DISPOSAL

• This marking means that the appliance must not be disposed of together with other household waste after it has been used.
• The user is obliged to hand it over to waste collection centre collecting used electrical and electronic goods.
• The collectors, including local collection points, shops and local authority departments provide recycling schemes.
• Proper handling of used electrical and electronic goods helps avoid environmental and health hazards resulting from the presence of dangerous components and the inappropriate storage and processing of such goods.

INSTALLATION

• Making the worktop recess
  • Worktop thickness should be 28 – 40 mm, while its width at least 600 mm. The worktop must be flat and level. The edge of the worktop near the wall must be sealed to prevent ingress of water or other liquids.
  • There should be sufficient spacing around the opening, in particular, at least 50 mm distance to the wall and 60 mm distance to the front edge of the worktop.
  • The distance between the edge of the opening and the side wall of the furniture should be a minimum of 55 mm.
  • Worktop must be made of materials, including veneer and adhesives, resistant to a temperature of 100°C. Otherwise, the veneer could come off or the surface of the worktop become deformed.
  • The edge of the opening should be sealed with suitable materials to prevent the ingress of water.
  • The Worktop opening must be cut to dimensions as shown in Figure 1.
  • Ensure a minimum clearance of 25 mm below the hob to allow proper air circulation and prevent overheating. See Figure 2.
  • When installing the hob in the worktop, a shelf partition must be installed.
  • Do not install the hob above the oven without ventilation.

Assembly of the gasket

• Depending on the model, the seal is already installed at the factory (fig.1)
• If the seal has not been fitted at the factory, proceed as follows:
• Before installing the hob in the cut-out worktop, the gasket is to be attached to the back of the hob (pic. 2)
• To do this, first peel off the protective film from the self-adhesive seal and glue the gasket as close as possible to the outer edge of the hob (fig. 3,4).

Do not install the appliance without the foam gasket.

• Then turn the hob over and insert it into the cut-out of the furniture.
• Align the positioning symmetrically so that the distances between the hob and the countertop is the same on all sides. (fig. 5)

Connecting to the electrical system

• Warning!
  • The device can be connected to the electrical system by an authorized electrician only.
  • Do not make any alterations or changes in the electrical system.

Instructions for the installer

• The electrical cable must be placed far from the direct source of heat. It shall not be exposed to temperatures over 50ºC above the ambient temperature.
• This device complies with the requirements of the following ECC directives:
  • 2006/95/EC Low voltage directive
  • 2004/108/EC EMC directive
  • 93/68/EEC CE Marking directive

Before connecting the plate to power, read the information provided on the viewer and the wiring diagram.

Note

• The installer is obliged to provide the user with a “Certificate for connecting the plate” (enclosed with the service card).
• Connection methods other than those shown on the above-mentioned diagram may damage the ceramic hob.
• The hob has a fixed-mounted cable with a neutral contact and may only be connected to a 220-240 V ~ 50/60 Hz socket with a grounding pin. Socket power circuit should be protected with a 16 A fuse.

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
  • An electric oscillator powers a coil placed inside the appliance.
  • This coil produces a magnetic field, which induces eddy currents 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, susceptible to magnetic fields.

Overall, induction technology is characterized by two advantages:

• the heat is only emitted by the cookware and its use is maximised,
• 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 does 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 the 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 an electronic 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: The temperature of electronic circuits is continuously monitored by a temperature sensor. If the temperature is raised beyond a safe level, this protection system will reduce the 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 in a cooking zone. Small objects placed on the cooking zone (eg, spoon, knife, ring …) will not be recognised as pans and the hob will not operate.

Pan detector

• Pan detector is installed in induction hobs. The 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 a suitable pan is placed in a cooking zone, the display shows the heat setting.
  • Induction requires the use of suitable cookware with a ferromagnetic base (see Table).
• If a pan is not placed in 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.

The 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 the 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.
• High-quality cookware is an essential condition for efficient induction cooking.

Select cookware for induction cooking

Cookware characteristics.

• Always use high-quality cookware, with a 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 the 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.
• The 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.
• The cookware base has to be flat for optimal temperature control by the induction module.
• The concave base or deep embossed logo of the manufacturer interferes with the temperature induction control module and can cause overheating of the pot or pan.
• Do not use damaged cookware such as cookware with a 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 the inclusion of aluminium parts then the effective heated area can be reduced. Problems with the detection of the cookware could arise or cookware 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 only ferromagnetic base materials such as:

• enamelled steel
• cast iron
• special stainless steel cookware designed for induction cooking.

Cookware size.

• To achieve the best cooking results, use cookware with bottoms (ferromagnetic part) of the size corresponding to the size of the cooking zone.
• Using cookware with a bottom diameter smaller than the cooking zone size will reduce the effectiveness of the cooking zone and increase cooking time.
• Cooking zones have a lower pot detection limit that depends on the diameter of the ferromagnetic part of the pot bottom and the pot material. The use of an unsuitable pot might lead to the pot being undetected by a cooking zone.

Control Panel

• Immediately after the appliance is connected to the 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.
• The 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.

Switching 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 20 seconds, the appliance switches itself off.

• 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 the electrical mains deactivates the Child Lock.

The residual heat indicator

• Once a cooking zone is switched off, „H” is displayed on the relevant cooking zone’s display to warn that the „cooking zone is still hot!”.
• Do not touch the cooking zone at this time owing to the risk of burns from residual heat, and do not place any object on it that is sensitive to heat!
• When the residual heat indicator goes out, the cooking zone can be touched, however, keep in mind that it may still be warmer than ambient temperature.
• When there is no power, the residual heat indicator does not light up.

Limiting the operating time

• To increase efficiency, the induction hob is fitted with an 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 cooking zones at any time per the operating instructions.
• To conserve electricity, after 30 minutes heating setting „9” will be automatically reduced to the heat setting „8”, but the cook time will not change.

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 to glass surfaces.
• Do not use under any circumstances 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 discolouration.
• 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.
• Scraper to clean the hob

Removing stains

• Bright stains of pearl colour (residual aluminium) 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 aluminium 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.
• 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 purchased 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.
• The 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 authorised service inspect the appliance every two years,
• repair and identify problems,
• and 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.
