Simply press and hold the safety key lock sensor for approximately 2 seconds to disengage the lock and continue with normal operation. The indicators should disappear with each zone’s usage (but will show after use if a zone is still hot to the touch).
Please note: If a power level is not set within approximately ten seconds of switching the hob on, the hob will switch off automatically.
To deactivate a zone · Simply press the “On/off sensor” (1) for that zone and touch the
plus and minus setting selectors simultaneously. Alternatively, you can use the minus setting selector (5) to return the power level to 0. The cooking zone indicator will display a “0” to confirm that the zone is now inactive. · If switching off multiple zones, the above step needs to be taken
7

for each zone. When all the zones are at “0”, the hob will switch off automatically after approximately ten seconds.
· To switch off the zone immediately, touch and hold the “On/off sensor” (1) for approximately three seconds. The hob will be off when no zones are active.
Please note: Any zones that are still above 65°C will display an ” ” provided the mains power supply is not interrupted.
Operating time limiter Each zone has an operating time limiter to increase overall efficiency and to prevent the hob from being left on indefinitely. If a zone’s heat setting is not changed for a specific duration then the associated zone is automatically switched off and residual heat indicator activated. Zones can still be used as normal in accordance with the operating instructions. The operating time limiter is set according to the last selected heat setting. The maximum operating times for each setting can be found below.

Auto-heat function
All zones are equipped with an auto-heat function, which reduces the warming up time for the zone. Each power level has a limited time for which the auto- heat function can be used. A table showing these times is shown at the bottom of this page.
To activate the auto-heat function on a zone · Switch the desired zone on, if not already so, by touching the
relevant cooking zone “On/off sensor” (1) . Next, touch the minus setting selector (5) to set the power level to 9. Then, touch the plus setting selector (4) and the cooking zone indicator should alternate between 9 and the letter ‘A’. Finally, press and hold the minus setting selector (5) to set the desired auto-heat power level.
Please note: You can use the plus setting selector (4) to adjust the power level if you go too low but pressing the minus setting selector a second time will cancel the auto-heat function and you will have to start again.
To deactivate the auto-heat function · Simply touch the desired zone’s “On/off sensor” (1) (if zone control
is not already active) followed by the minus setting selector (5). The display will return the preset power level.

With either one or more zones actively heating the lock can still be activated. Simply press and hold the safety key lock sensor (2) for approximately 2 seconds. The hob will beep and the safety key lock LED should illuminate.
To deactivate the safety key lock Simply touch and hold the safety key lock sensor (2) for approximately 2 seconds. The hob will beep and the safety key lock LED should extinguish.
Please note: The safety key lock may activate when the power supply is activated for the first time. The safety key lock sensor LED will flash when you try to operate the hob if so. Simply deactivate the safety key lock as per the above step and proceed to use the hob as normal.
10

Residual heat indicators
The hob is equipped with residual heat indicators to warn when any of the zones are still hot to the touch after use. An ” ” will show if the relevant zone is 65°c or above. You should avoid touching any zone whilst the hob is in use or whilst residual heat indicators are displayed. Please note: In the event of a power cut or failure, the residual heat indicators will illuminate after the power supply is restored. When there is no power supply to the hob however the residual heat indicators will not work, yet the hob zone(s) may still be hot, so extra care must be taken. Residual heat indicators may show on one or more zone when the hob is activated for the first time. This is not indicative of a fault and they should disappear after the zone’s use (and once the zone has cooled down).
11

Efficient use of your hob
The hob is equipped with zones designed to accommodate most shapes and sizes of pan. For best results, only use pans with flat bottoms. The most efficient use of the hob is shown below, where the pan and zone are correctly chosen. Use pan lids where possible to minimize the energy usage of your appliance.

Locating a pan in the centre of the zone markings will ensure optimum efficiency.
It is very important that the pans used on the hob are made of a suitable material and have the correct type of base. The base of the pan and the hob top must be clean before use to prevent any scratches on the hob top.
Please note: Extra care should be taken if cast iron pans are used as these have coarse bases which may damage the hob top.

Care and maintenance
Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before undertaking any cleaning or maintenance.
Important: · Steam cleaners must not be used when cleaning this appliance. · You should use a non-abrasive cleaner to clean the hob top. Any
abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control panel markings. · Sugar and starch can cause permanent damage to the surface of the hob. Wipe away any spillages immediately but be careful given that the hob top will be hot during and after usage. · Avoid letting pans boil over where possible to ensure that the need for cleaning is minimal. · Always use a soft sponge or cloth where possible. Utensils such as scouring sponges and some brushes could cause scratches to the hob top.
A cleaning guide is available on page 14.

If fitting a CDA cooker hood above the hob: If a CDA cooker hood is to be installed above the hob, the height of the hood above the hob must be at least 600mm (650mm is recommended) (Fig.6). If the instructions supplied with the hood dictate that the hood must be installed at a height Fig.6 greater than 600mm, then that height is the minimum required.
Wall furniture requirements: The minimum height of any cabinet immediately above the hob is 900mm. The minimum height of any adjacent units (including light pelmets) is 400mm, unless they are manufactured from a material resistant to fire (steel, for example).
Important notes: · Do not position this appliance above a refrigeration unit. The heat
generated may cause the refrigeration unit to fail. · This appliance is designed to be installed into cabinet units, and
around worktops, capable of withstanding temperatures of 100°C+ · Never place perishable foods, cleaning products or flammable items
in the cupboard below the appliance. · If the hob is to be located above a working drawer, we recommend
that the drawer is not used for storing soft items, for example dusters or towels; this is to minimise the risk of the cooling system air intakes being obstructed. · Do not use silicone or similar sealants to seal the hob into place. It should always be accessible for servicing etc.
