HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.

Cookware

• For induction cooking zones a strong electro-magnetic field creates the heat in the cookware very quickly.
• Use the induction cooking zones with suitable cookware.

Cookware material

• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel, stainless steel, multi-layer bottom (with a correct marking from a manufacturer).
• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.

Cookware is suitable for an induction hob if:

• water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting.
• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.
• The bottom of the cookware must be as thick and flat as possible.
• Ensure pan bases are clean and dry before placing on the hob surface.

Cookware dimensions

• Induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension of the bottom of the cookware automatically.
• The cooking zone efficiency is related to the diameter of the cookware. The cookware with a diameter smaller than the minimum receives only a part of the power generated by the cooking zone.
• Refer to “Technical data”.

Correct pans for Pan Fry function
Use only pans with flat bottom. To check if the pan is correct:

1. Put your pan upside down.
2. Put a ruler on the bottom of the pan.
3. Try to put a coin of 1, 2 or 5 Euro Cent (or with similar thickness) between the ruler and the bottom of the pan.

• The pan is incorrect if you can put the coin between the ruler and the pan.
• The pan is correct if you cannot put the coin between the ruler and the pan.

The noises during operation If you can hear

• crack noise: cookware is made of different materials (a sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use a cooking zone with a high power level and the cookware is made of different materials (a sandwich construction).
• humming: you use a high power level.
• clicking: electric switching occurs, the pot is detected after you place it on the hob.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.

The noises are normal and do not indicate any malfunction.

Öko Timer (Eco Timer)
To save energy, the heater of the cooking zone deactivates before the count down timer sounds. The difference in the operation time depends on the heat setting level and the length of the cooking operation.

Examples of cooking applications
The correlation between the heat setting of a zone and its consumption of power is not linear. When you increase the heat setting, it is not proportional to the increase of the consumption of power. It means that a cooking zone with the medium heat setting uses less than a half of its power.

The data in the table is for guidance only.

Hints and Tips for Hob²Hood
When you operate the hob with the function:

• Protect the hood panel from direct sunlight.
• Do not spot halogen light on the hood panel.
• Do not cover the hob control panel.
• Do not interrupt the signal between the hob and the hood (e.g. with the hand, a cookware handle or a tall pot). See the picture.

The hood in the picture is only exemplary.

• Keep the window of the Hob²Hood infrared signal communicator clean.
• Other remotely controlled appliances may block the signal. Do not use any such appliances near to the hob while Hob²Hood is on.
