OPERATION OF THE APPLIANCE

Use the induction cooking zones with suitable cookware. After the power supply is turned on, all of the displays light up for a moment. When this time is over, the hob goes into standby mode and is ready for operation. The hob is controlled with electronic sensors which are operated by touching the related sensors. Each sensor activation is followed by a sound signal (buzzer).

Switching the appliance on:
Switch the hob on by pressing the ON/ OFF key All heater displays show a static “0” and the bottom right dots blink. (If no cooking zone is selected within 20 seconds, the hob will automatically turn off.)

Switching the appliance on:

Switch the hob on by pressing the ON/ OFF key All heater displays show a static “0” and the bottom right dots blink. (If no cooking zone is selected within 20 seconds, the hob will automatically turn off.)

Switching the appliance off:

Switch the hob off at any time by pressing . The ON/OFF key always has priority in the switch-off function.

Switching the cooking zones on:

Press the heater selection key you wish to cook on. There is a static dot indication on the selected heater display and the blinking dot on all other displays switch off. Select the temperature setting by using the increase heat setting key or decrease the heat setting key The element is now ready to cook on. For the quickest boil times, select the desired cooking level and then press the P key to activate the Boost function.

Switching the cooking zones off:

Select the element you want to switch off by pressing the related increase heat setting key . Using the key, turn the temperature down to ”0”. (Additionally, using the and keys simultaneously turns the temperature to ”0”) If the cooking zone is hot, “H” will be displayed instead of “0”.

Switching all the cooking zones off:

To turn all the cooking zones off at once, press the key. In standby mode, an “H” appears on all cooking zones which are hot.

Residual heat indicator:

The residual heat indicator indicates that the ceramic glass has a dangerous touch temperature in the circumference of the cooking zone. After switching off the cooking zone, the respective display shows an “H” until the assigned cooking zone temperature is at an uncritical level.

Safety switch-off function:

Every cooking zone will be switched off after a defined maximum operation time if the heat setting is not modified. Every change in the cooking zone puts the maximum operation time back to the initial value of the operating time limitation. The maximum operation time depends on the selected temperature level. Wait until ‘F’ disappears for all zones,turn the hob on by touching and continue to use.

Child Lock:

The child lock function can be activated after switching the control on. To activate the child lock, simultaneously operate the front increase heat setting key and the decrease heat setting key and then operate the increased heat setting key again. “L” meaning LOCKED will appear in all heater displays and the control can not be changed. (If a cooking zone is in the hot condition, “L” and “H” will be displayed in alternation.) The hob will remain in a locked condition until it gets unlocked, even if the control has been switched on and off. To deactivate the child lock, first, switch the hob on. Simultaneously operate the front increase heat setting key and the decrease heat setting key and then operate the decrease heat setting key again. “L” will disappear in the display and the hob will be switched off

Key Lock:

Key lock functionality is for blocking and setting the appliance into safe mode during operation. Touch modifications as, for example, increasing heat settings and others should not be possible. Only switching the appliance off is possible. The lock function becomes active if the Key Lock button is pressed for at least 2 seconds. This operation is acknowledged by a buzzer. After a successful operation of more than 2 seconds, the Key Lock Indicator flashes and the heater becomes locked.

Timer function:

The timer function is carried out in two versions:

• Minute minder timer (1 to 99 minutes):

The minute minder timer can be operated if the cooking zones are switched off. The timer display displays “00” with a blinking dot. Press the timer setting key to increase the time or press it to decrease the time. The adjustment range is between 0 and 99 minutes. If there is no operation in 10 seconds, the minute minder timer will be set and the blinking dot will disappear. After the timer is set, the time runs down according to the adjustment. When the time is over, a signal sounds and the timer display blinks. The sound signal will be stopped automatically after 30 seconds and/or by operating any key. The minute minder timer can be changed or switched off anytime by operating the increase timer key and/or decrease timer key. Switching off the hob by pressing at any time will also switch off the minute minder timer.

• Cooking zone timer (1 to 999 minutes):

When the hob is switched on, an independent timer can be programmed for every cooking zone. Select a cooking zone, then select the temperature setting and finally activate the timer setting key, the timer can be programmed as a switch-off function for a cooking zone. Four LEDs are arranged around the timer. These indicate for which cooking zone the timer has been activated. 10 seconds after the last operation, the timer display changes to the timer that will run out next (in the event of programming more than 1 cooking zone). When the timer has run down, a signal sounds, and the timer display displays “00” statically, and the assigned cooking zone timer LED blinks. The programmed cooking zone will be switched off and the “H” will be displayed if the cooking zone is hot. The sound signal and the blinking of the LED timer will be stopped automatically after 30 seconds and/or by operating any key.

Buzzer:

While the hob is in operation, the following activities will be signaled by means of a buzzer: Normal key activation with a short sound signal Continuous operation of keys over a longer period of time (10 seconds) with a longer, intermittent sound signal.

Boost Function:

A cooking zone has to be selected, the cooking level set to the “desired cooking level” and the P (Boost) key has to be pressed again. The Boost- Function can be activated if the induction module accepts the setting on this cooking zone. If the Boost Function is active, a “P” is displayed on the corresponding display. Activating the booster can exceed the maximum power and the integrated power management will be activated.

HINTS AND TIPS Cookware

• Use thick, flat, smooth bottomed cookware, that has the same diameter as the element. This will help reduce cooking times.
• Cookware made of steel, enameled steel, cast iron and stainless steel (if appropriately labeled by the manufacturer) will give you the best results.
• Cookware made of enameled steel or aluminum or copper bottoms can cause a metallic residue to remain on the hob. If left, this becomes difficult to remove. Clean the hob after every use.
• Cookware is suitable for induction if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware.
• The cookware must be placed centrally on the cooking zone. If it is not placed correctly, is displayed.
• When using certain pans, you may get various noises from the pans, this is due to the design of the pans and does not affect the performance or safety of the hob

Energy saving

• Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the size of the cookware bottom up to a certain limit. However, the magnetic part of the cookware bottom must have a minimum diameter depending upon the size of the cooking zone.
• Place the cookware in the cooking zone before it is switched on. If it is switched on before putting any cookware on it, the cooking zone will not operate and the control display shows.
• Use a lid to reduce cooking time.
• When the liquid comes to a boil, reduce the temperature setting.
• Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times. · Select the proper temperature setting for the cooking applications.

Examplees of cooking applications
