Product Information

The microcomputer ceramic cooker hob can meet different kinds of cuisine demands using resistance wire heating, micro-computerized control, and multi- power selection.

Before using your New Ceramic Hob

• Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
• Remove any protective film that may still be on your ceramic 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 the tip.
• You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
• Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is no object (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

Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.

Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the same size as the cooking zone. Always center your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the ceramic hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.

Using your Ceramic Hob

To start cooking

1. Touch the ON/OFF control.
   • After power on, the buzzer beeps once, all the indicators light up for 1 minute then go out, indicating that the ceramic hob has entered the state of standby mode.

2. Place a suitable pan on the cooking zone that you wish to use.
   • Make sure the bottom of the pan and the surface Of the cooking zone are clean and dry.

3. Select a heat setting by touching the or control.
   • If you don’t choose a heat setting within 1 minute, the ceramic hob will automatically switch off. You will need to start again at step 1.
   • You can modify the heat setting at any time during cooking.
   

When you have finished cooking

1a. Turn the cooking zone off by scrolling down to “- “or touching and controlling together.

1b. Turn the whole cooktop off by touching the ON/OFF control.

2. Beware of hot surfaces
**H** will show which cooking zone is hot to touch. It will disappear when the surface has cooled down to a safe temperature. It can also be used as an energy-saving function if you want to heat further pans, use the hotplate that is still hot.

Locking the Controls

• You can lock the controls to prevent unintended use (for example children accidentally turn the cooking zones on).
• When the controls are locked, all the controls except the ON/OFF control are disabled.

To lock the controls
Touch the keylock control. The indicator next to the keylock will light up
To unlock the controls

1.  Make sure the ceramic hob is turned on.
2. Touch and hold the keylock control for 2 seconds.
3. You can now start using your ceramic hob.

**** When the hob is in the lock mode, all the controls are disabled except the ON/OFF, you can always turn the ceramic hob off with the ON/OFF
control in an emergency, but you shall unlock the hob first in the next operation

Over-Temperature Protection

A temperature sensor inside the ceramic hob will stop the ceramic hob operation automatically.

Residual Heat Warning

When the hob has been operating for some time, there will be some residual heat. The letter “ ”appears to warn you to keep away from it.

Auto Shutdown

Another safety feature of the hob is auto shutdown. This occurs whenever you forget to switch off a cooking zone. The default shutdown times are shown in the table below:

Cooking Guidelines

**** Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious fire risk.

Cooking Tips

• When food comes to a boil, reduce the temperature setting.
• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.
• Minimize 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 cooking liquid. It is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because the flavors 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 flavorsome 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 cooked 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, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooking zone to a lower 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

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.
Boilovers 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 dishcloth or paper towel.
4. Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday soiling on glass’ above.| • Remove stains left by melts 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.
