COOKTOP DETAILS

ELECTRICAL DETAILS:

COOKTOPS : Rated Voltage: Single phase 220-240Vac 50Hz, 2-phase 380-415Vac 50Hz: 7400W. This information can be found on the rating plate (identification plate) affixed to the underside of the Cooktop.

* The given power may change according to the dimensions and material of the pan. Nominal power on cooking zones may adjust lower when the boost function is being used on other cooking zones, to keep the Cooktop from exceeding the rated total power.

COOKTOP ­ Directly wired to mains supply.

SIZES:

INSTALLATION

The adjacent furniture must be able to withstand a minimum temperature rise of 100°C above the ambient temperature of the room it is located in, during periods of use. The power supply to the Cooktop must be cut off before any adjustments or maintenance work is done on it. The Cooktop must be well ventilated (as per this manual) otherwise the Cooktop will overheat.

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION AND USE
Manufactured with best quality parts and materials, this modern, functional and practical cooktop will meet your needs in all respects. Make sure to read the manual to obtain successful results so as not to experience any problems in the future. The information given below contains rules that are necessary for correct positioning and service operations. They should be read without fail, especially by the technician who will position the Cooktop.

CHOOSING A LOCATION FOR THE COOKTOP
There are several points to pay attention to when choosing a location for your cooktop. Make sure to take into account our recommendations below in order to prevent any problems and dangerous situations, which might occur later! When choosing a location for the cooktop, attention should be paid that there are no flammable or combustible materials in the close vicinity, such as curtains, oil, cloth etc. which quickly catch fire. Ensure a distance between the cooktop edge and rear or side walls of at least 50mm. Furniture surrounding the cooktop must be made of materials resistant to temperatures above 100 C°. Required changes to wall cabinets and exhaust fans above a built-in cooktop as well as minimum heights from the oven board are shown in Figure 1. Accordingly, the exhaust fan should be at a minimum height of 65 cm from the cooktop. If there is no exhaust fan the height should not be less than 70 cm.

INSTALLATION OF BUILT IN COOKTOP
In order to prevent leakage of any liquids on the work bench and fix the Cooktop to the bench, a special sealing tape is supplied together with your oven. Place the cooktop glass down on a clean cloth on a stable flat surface & apply this seal around the bottom edge of the cooktop (see below). Remove the backing from the sealing tape and then place the Cooktop in position. If the sealing tape is not enough to fully seal the Cooktop to the bench, use a small bead of clear high temperature resistant silicone sealant.

This Cooktop can be installed into a workbench 30-40mm thick. When cutting the hole in the work bench, keep in mind the correct space and ventilation which are shown in the diagrams below.

A board must be placed a minimum of 20mm below the cooktop that prevents anyone from touching the underside of the cooktop. Take care that there is adequate ventilation for air exchange to the inductive elements (at least 20mm).

NOTE: INDUCTIVE COOKTOPS GENERATE A LOT OF HEAT INTERNALLY WHEN IN OPERATION. THE BOTTOM OF THE COOKTOP MUST HAVE A CLEAR PATHWAY TO VENT THIS HEAT OUT VIA THE BOTTOM FANS TO THE OPEN AIR IN ORDER TO KEEP ITSELF COOL. FAILING TO PROVIDE ADIQUATE VENTILLATION WILL DAMAGE THE COOKTOP AND VOID YOUR WARRANTY. THE ABOVE DIMENSIONS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED THE MINIMUM VENTILLATION REQUIRED.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The basic layout of the induction cooktop is shown in the diagrams below.

The induction Cooktop is operated by touching the control buttons, with the functions confirmed by LED displays and acoustic signals. Clean glass surface with a damp cloth and dry before use.

Note : All cooking zones have a pre-set limit on the length of time they will run without any setting changes (table further in the manual).

Turning On and Turning Off the Cooktop
NOTE : Do not operate the Cooktop without first placing a suitably sized cookware on the appropriate cooking zone. If the correct sized cookware is not placed on the cooking zone, the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display will indicate pan not detected. Settings can be changed, but the zone will not work until the pot is replaced. If the Cooktop is in Stand-By-Mode, it is put into Operating-Mode by pressing the On/Off Power touch control for at least 1 second. A beep signal indicates the successful operation acoustically, with a small indicator above the touch control being lit.

Each Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display will display a ´0`. The decimal points on the Cooking Zone Power Displays will flash until a cooking zone is selected.

• If there is no operation within 20 seconds, all the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED displays will automatically turn off and the Cooktop will be re-set into Stand-By-Mode .
• If the On/Off Power touch control is pressed for more than 1 second (in Operating-Mode ), the Cooktop is switched off and is set into the Stand-By-Mode again. The Cooktop can be turned off by pressing On/Off at any time. The small indicator above the touch control will also turn off.
• If there is any residual heat remaining in a cooking zone, this will be indicated in the corresponding Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display as a red “H” .

Selecting A Cooking Zone

1. Select a single cooking zone by pressing the corresponding Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display (07, 08, 09 or 10), and the decimal point of the chosen cooking zone stays bright while the others turn off.
2. For the selected cooking zone, you can set or adjust the power level between 1-9 by touching the Power/Timer Slide touch control (05) All of the other cooking zone displays will have a visible O’, value (if in use) orH’ (if recently used). The Power/Timer Slide touch control can be operated by either touching the sensor at some point (lower values to the left), or placing a finger on the sensor and sliding it left and right. The position will be displayed on the Power/Timer Slide LED Indicator above, as well as on the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display. If left idle for more than 10 seconds, the LED for the chosen cooking zone display will turn off (the cooking zone is no longer selected). Press the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display again to select the cooking zone again. Other cooking zones can be selected without waiting for the previous one to become inactive. The Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display works on a thermostat system. This means that the cooking zone will switch on and off in order to remain at the chosen Power Level.
   NOTE the cooking zone will remain on for longer periods if a higher Power Level is chosen, alternatively the cooking zone will be on less regularly on lower Power Level Settings.

Turning Off Individual Cooking Zones
A cooking zone can be turned off by selecting the specific cooking zone touching the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display and then using the Power/Timer Slide touch control to set the power to 0.

The Boost Function
The Boost function is available to all cooking zones. It is used to speed up the initial heat up time (boil a pot of water) and only runs for a short time (5 minutes).

1. Select a cooking zone and press the Boost Power touch control (04) once, so the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display changes from the current value to “P”. The power boost function is now active (indicator above the sensor is lit). Once the 5 minutes has passed, the cooking zone power level will drop to 9.
   Note : The Boost function uses significantly more power than the nominal power (see Cooktop details). If used in conjunction with other cooking zones, the max power available on the other cooking zones may be reduced to keep power usage within the total allowed.

2. To disable the Boost function, press the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display for the cooking zone again (so the decimal point is on) and either press the Boost Power touch control (04) again (the cooking zone power level reverts to 9) or adjust the power level with the Power/Timer Slide touch control (05). The indicator above the Boost Power touch control will turn off (unless the second zone is using the boost function).

Activating The Key Lock

The key lock is used to set the Cooktop up so that it cannot be operated without disabling the lock. This is a useful feature when cleaning down the glass, or to stop children playing with the controls.

1. Put into Operating-Mode by pressing the On/Off touch control for at least 1 second.
2. When the LED displays light up, simultaneously press the Boost Power touch control (04) and Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display (RHF) (10) within 10 seconds (a beep will sound, but no change will take place with the LED displays if successful). Note: if any other control button is pressed before this, the operation must be restarted.
3. Within 5 seconds, press the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display (RHF) again. The LED displays (07, 08, 09 and 10) will change to “L”. The controls are now locked and no operation except turning the Cooktop from Stand-By-Mode to Operating-Mode and back is available.
4. To unlock the control panel, repeat the sequence above, but instead of pressing the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display (RHF) at the end of the sequence, press the Boost Power touch control. When successful, all displays will turn off and a beep will sound. The Cooktop is now ready to put into Operating-Mode.

Minute Minder Function

The Minute Minder function is a timer that does not affect any operation on the Cooktop, but can be used as a reminder to take action (add a spice, turn meat etc).

1. The Cooktop must be set to Operating-Mode, so that the Timer Touch Control & LED display shows “CL”.
2. Press the Timer Touch Control & LED display (11) and the LED will show “0-“.
3. Within 10 seconds, adjust the minutes value (0-9) using the Power/Timer Slide touch control (05). The value will flash for 3 seconds and then the first digit will change to “-“.
4. Adjust this (10 minute value) in the same way. The value will flash for 3 seconds and then the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED displays will turn off, leaving the minute minder value and the indicator above the On/Off Power touch control on.
5. When the set time has passed, the Cooktop starts to beep, and the LED displays at the top of the control panel (11) will flash “00”. Press any button to turn the sound off and return the Cooktop to display its operations as before.
   • The Minute Minder time can be adjusted at any point by activating the function and adjusting as above. To disable the function, adjust the time to “00”. Alternatively, if no cooking zone is being used, press the On/Off Power touch control twice.

The Cooktop can be used as normal during the Minute Minder operation, but setting any cooking zone Timer function will clear the Minute Minder function.

Timer Function

The timer function differs from the Minute Minder function in that it will turn off a cooking zone at the end of the time. It can be set for one or more cooking zones (each working independently). The Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display always shows the shortest timer when in operation.

1. First set up the Cooktop with cookware placed on cooking zones and set all power levels.

2. Activate a cooking zone pressing its Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display and within 10 seconds press the Timer Touch Control & LED display (11). The LED shows the current timer value (00 if new).

3. Set the time in the same manner as for the Minute Minder (the difference to setting the Minute Minder function time is that the decimal point of the display (12) for the selected cooking zone is also flashing). The timer starts as the last button is pressed. 3-10 seconds after the last button is pressed, the decimal point on the Cooking Zone Timer Select Indicator (12) will stop flashing and stay on as long as the timer is working. Another timer function can now be set on a different cooking zone, or power levels can be adjusted.

4. If a change needs to be made to a timer, the above can be repeated. Changing the value to “00” will disable the timer on the selected cooking zone (but not the power level).

5. When a timer function finishes, the Cooktop will start to beep indicating the cooking zone has finished. The Cooking Zone Timer Select Indicator (12) for the cooking zone will flash and the Timer Touch Control & LED display (11) LED will flash “00” for 2 minutes (unless a button is pressed) and then the displays will return to normal. Any other timer functions that are running will continue (Cooking Zone Timer Select Indicator decimal points on) until the next timer is finished. If all timer functions finish and there are no other cooking zones active, the Cooktop will return to the Stand-By-Mode after the alarm finishes.

Auto Cooking Function

The Auto Cooking Function allows you to set any or all cooking zones up so that they run at a high power level for a period of time, and then drop the power down to a lower level.

1. The Cooktop must be in set to Operating-Mode and the cooking zone selected.
2. Use the Power/Timer Slide touch control (05) to set the power to “9”.
3. Let go of the sensor and then press (+) again (the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display changes to “A”). Holding down the sensor, slid the sensor back to the left to set a low power setting. After 5 seconds, the Select touch control & Power LED display will alternate between “A” and the low power setting. At this point, the cooking zone will run for a set time at high, and then drop down to the low power setting (at which point the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display changes to the low power setting). See table for times on next page.
4. To disable the Auto Cooking Function, select the cooking zone and pick a new power setting.

Keep Warm Function

The Keep Warm Function can be used to keep food warm for long periods of time (up to 2 hours). The cookware can be removed from the element for up to 10 minutes without disabling the function. 1. The Cooktop must be set to Operating-Mode. 2. Select one of the cooking zones. Press the Keep Warm Function Touch Control (03) and the Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display of the selected cooking zone will change to “U”. 3. The function can be disabled by adjusting the cooking zone power level.

Stop N Go Function

The Stop N Go Function allows you to stop all activity on the Cooktop (cooking, timers) and restart for where you left off at a later time.

1. While the Cooktop is in Operating-Mode, press the Stop N Go/Recall Function Touch Control (02). A pause symbol “ll” will appear in each Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display and the indicator above the sensor will light up. All functions will pause, and all touch sensors disabled (except for On/Off Power touch control).
2. Once ready to restart, press the Stop N Go/Recall Function Touch Control (02) again. The indicator above the sensor will flash for 2 seconds. Press any other touch sensor within that 2 seconds and the pause symbols will disappear. The Cooktop will then continue to work as it was before.

Recall Function

There may be times when you are cooking and press the On/Off Power touch control by mistake, deleting all functions and timers. If the On/Off Power touch control is pressed again (within 6 seconds of the Cooktop being set to Stand-By-Mode), the indicator above the Stop N Go/Recall Function Touch Control (02) will flash for 5 seconds. Press the Stop N Go/Recall Function Touch Control while it’s flashing, and the previous settings for the Cooktop will be recalled.

TOUCH CONTROL SAFETY FUNCTIONS

The following safety functions are available to avoid unintended operations of the cooktop control:

Pan Detection Failure
If a cooking zone is activated and undersized cookware, incorrect material cookware or no cookware is detected, the symbol U will be displayed on the cooking zone LED display and the cooking zone will be disabled. Place or replace cookware on the cooking zone.

Residual Heat Functions
After all cooking processes there is some heat stored in the glass top called residual heat. The control can calculate roughly how hot the glass is in the worst case. If the calculated temperature is higher than + 60 ° C, then this will be indicated in the corresponding Cooking Zone Select touch control & Power LED display with a red “H” after the cooktop has turned off. The residual heat display is shown as long as the calculated cooking zone temperature is > + 60 ° C.

CLEANING

NOTE : Cleaning and maintenance operations must only be carried out when the cooktop is cool (all residual heat indicators are off).
The Cooktop should be disconnected from the power outlet or turned off at your isolation switch before commencing any cleaning process.
Do not use plastic, plastic coated or aluminium cooking equipment on this Cooktop.

CLEANING THE COOKTOP

All cookware used on this Cooktop should be rated for induction cooking by the manufacturer. Cookware with rough bases should not be used as they can scratch the glass ceramic surface. The base of the good cookware should be as thick and flat as possible. Before use, make sure that cookware bases are clean and dry.

Always place the cookware on the cooking zone before it is switched on. If possible, always place the lids on the cookware. The base of any cookware used must not be smaller or larger than the cooking zones; they should be the proper size as indicated below, so as not to waste energy.

Before cleaning the cooktop, first isolate the cooktop from the power. Once done, ensure that there is no residual heat stored in the Cooktop. The glass is very resistant to high temperature and overheating. If there is residual heat stored in the Cooktop, the related residual heat indicator lamp will be on. In order to avoid burns, let the Cooktop cool down.

Remove all spilt food and fat with a clean damp, warm, slightly soapy, dishcloth. Rinse cloth and wipe cooktop again until clean, then wipe the cooktop dry with a clean tea towel or dry soft cloth.

If aluminium foil or plastic items are accidentally melted on the glass surface, they should be immediately removed from the hot cooking area with a scraper specifically for glass. This will avoid any possible damage to the surface. This also applies to sugar or food containing sugar that may be spilled on the cooktop. Enamelled steel, aluminium & copper will leave a residue on the surface that should be removed immediately or permanent damage may occur.

In the event of other food melted on the cooktop surface, remove the dirt when the Cooktop has cooled down. Use cleaner for glass ceramic or stainless steel when cleaning the surface.

Do not use abrasive sponges to clean the glass surface. These materials may damage the surface.

Do not use chemical detergents, sprays or spot removers on the glass surface. These materials may cause fire or the glass colour to fade. Clean with a damp, warm, slightly soapy, dishcloth.

WARNING: Using cookware that is too large can cause discolouration or damage to the cooktop surface around the cooking zones, which is NOT covered under warranty.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

LOCAL AUTHORITY REQUIREMENTS

Installation is only permitted by a licensed electrician, and carried out according to instructions provided by the manufacturer. Incorrect installation might cause harm and damage, for which the manufacturer accepts no responsibility.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

Before carrying out the connection to the power supply, the voltage rating of the Cooktop (stamped on the Cooktop identification plate) must be checked for correspondence to the available mains supply voltage, and the mains electric wiring should be capable of handling the oven’s power rating (also indicated on the identification plate). If you have any doubts, call in a qualified technician.

NOTE : For connections to the mains power supply, never use adapters, reductions or multiple power points as these may overheat and catch fire. Do not install separate timers. After having installed the Cooktop, the switched outlet must always be in an accessible position. The electrical safety of this Cooktop can only be guaranteed if the cooktop is correctly and efficiently earthed, always ensure that the earthing is efficient; if you have any doubts call in a licensed electrician to check the system. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage resulting from an installation which has not been correctly earthed.

WARNING : If any damage occurs to the power cable during or after installation, it must be replaced immediately by a licensed electrician with a replacement cable from your Service Centre.

The cooktops can be connected to either a single phase 220-240Vac 50 Hz supply, or 2 phase 380-415Vac 50Hz.

SINGLE PHASE CONNECTION

First, a bridge connection must be made between terminals 1 and 2 (live) and between 3 and 4 (neutral). Connect the pairs to the live and neutral power supply cables. Connect the ground terminal to the ground supply cable.

TWO PHASE CONNECTION

First remove any bridge connection between terminals 1 and 2 (live). Place a bridge connection between 3 and 4 (neutral). Connect terminals 1 and 2 to the live power supply cables. Connect either terminal 3 or 4 to the neutral power supply cable. Connect the ground terminal to the ground supply cable.

The mains terminal block is located on the underside of the cooktop and the terminals are accessible by removing the terminal block cover using a small flat screwdriver.

The Cooktop is designed for fixed connection to the mains. During installation, an all pole disconnector should be included inside the supply circuit with a contact opening of at least 3mm (rated 32A, delay functioning type). The power supply cord must not touch against any hot surfaces and must be placed so that its temperature does not exceed 75 °C at any point along its length.

IMPORTANT : The Cooktop must NOT be connected to the mains supply by means of a 10A, 15A or 20A plug and socket.

The maximum current drawn in a single phase installation is 32A, and 2x16A for a two phase installation. Only use cables Tmax 90C types H05RN-F, H07RN-F, H05RR-F, H07RR-F etc.
