Introduction
Dear customer!
Welcome to our growing Celsius Cooking family!
We are proud of our appliances. We hope that this appliance will be an appreciated and dependable
aid for many years to come.
Please read the operating instructions before use. They include general tips, information about the
settings and adjustments you can make, and the best way to take care of your appliance.
This hob has been designed for the real lover of cooking. Cooking on an induction hob has a number
of advantages. It is easy, because the hob reacts quickly and can also be set to a very low power
level. Because, moreover, it can also be set to a high power level, it can bring dishes to the boil very
quickly. The ample space between the cooking zones makes cooking comfortable.
Cooking on an induction hob is different from cooking on a traditional appliance. Induction cooking
makes use of a magnetic field to generate heat. This means that you cannot use just any pan on it.
The pans section gives more information about this.
For optimum safety the induction hob is equipped with several temperature protections and a residual
heat indicator, which shows which cooking zones are still hot.
This manual describes how you can make the best possible use of the induction hob. In addition to
information about operation, you will also find background information that can assist you in using
this product. You will also find cooking tables and maintenance tips.
Read the manual thoroughly before using the appliance, and store these instructions in a safe
place for future reference.
The manual also serves as reference material for service technicians. Please, therefore, stick the
appliance identification card at the back of the manual. The appliance identification card contains
all the information that the service technician will need in order to respond appropriately to your
needs and questions.
Enjoy your cooking!

Use
Using the touch controls
•The touch controls may take some getting used to if you are used to other (rotary) controls. Place
the tip of your finger flat on the control to achieve the best results. You do not have to apply any
pressure.
•The touch sensors only react to the light pressure of a fingertip. Do not operate the controls with
any other objects.
•The cooking hob is operated by a slider. You can either touch the selected part of the slider or
slide in a circular motion clockwise to increase or anti-clockwise to decrease the power level
and temperature.
•To set the cooking zone power level, touch the desired spot on the slider. As you touch the slider,
the selected power level will appear on the cooking zone display unit.
•The selected part of the slider will be fully lit.
Induction cooking
Induction cooking is fast
In the beginning you will be surprised by the speed of induction cooking. Especially at higher settings,
foods and liquids will boil very rapidly.
It is best not to leave pans unattended to avoid them boiling over or boiling dry.
Always keep the lid on the pan when cooking, in order to avoid energy
loss, and therefore temperature loss.
Attention
Only put pans with a clean base on the cooking surface and always
pick pans up to move them.
Grains of sand, salt, sugar or crystals may cause scratches which
cannot be removed.
11
Page 12
Use
How does induction work
A magnetic field is generated in the appliance. By placing a pan with
an iron base on a cooking zone, a current is induced in the pan base.
This induced current generates heat in the base of the pan.
Easy
The electronic controls are accurate and easy to set. On the lowest
setting, you can melt chocolate directly in the pan, for example, or cook
ingredients that you would normally heat in a bain-marie.
Fast
Thanks to the induction hob’s high power levels, bringing liquid to the
boil is very quick. Cooking food through takes just as long as for other
types of cooking.
Clean
The hob is easy to clean. Because the cooking zones do not get any
hotter than the pans themselves, food spills cannot be burnt on the
cooking zone.
Safe
The heat is generated in the pan itself. The glass top does not get any
warmer than the pan. This means that the cooking zone is considerably
cooler compared to that from a ceramic hob or a gasburner. Once a
pan has been taken away, the cooking zone cools down quickly.
Power management
This induction hob is equipped with a smart power management system. This system ensures a
maximum permissible power cannot be exceeded for safety reasons.
•The smart power management system will arrange the power distribution across the zones
automatically. This means the hob could automatically decrease the power on one zone when
the power level of another zone is increased. The level of activity of the power management
system depends on the available power per electrical phase, the setting of the current limiter
and the connected load.
•The power level of one zone can affect the power of another zone as the maximum available
power is distributed among the zones. If the combined zones reach the maximum available
power when a new power level is set, the power levels of one or more zones are automatically
reduced within the power limit. This is indicated by the flashing of the relevant control element.
•In case a zone is used for Celsius Cooking, this zone always gets highest priority.
•Intervention by the smart power management system is more likely when the current limiter is
set to a lower level.
•The current limiter setting must be set according to your connection and circuit breakers by a
registered and qualified installer (see ‘Current limiter’ for the details on currents and electrical
installation).

Pans
Pans for induction cooking
Induction cooking requires a particular quality of pan.
WARNING!
Pans that have already been used for cooking on a gas hob are no longer suitable for use on an
induction hob.
Only use pans that are suitable for induction cooking with a thick base (minimum 2.25 mm) and a
flat base.
•The best are pans with the ‘Class Induction’ quality mark.
INFORMATION!
You can check for yourself whether your pans are suitable using a magnet. A pan is suitable if
the base of the pan is sufficiently attracted by the magnet.
UnsuitableSuitable
EarthenwareSpecial stainless steel pans
Stainless steelClass Induction
PorcelainHard-wearing enamelled pans
CopperEnamelled cast-iron pans
Plastic
Aluminium
WARNING!
Be careful with enamelled sheet-steel pans:
•the enamel may chip (the enamel comes loose from the steel), if you switch the hob on at a
high setting when the pan is (too) dry
•the base of the pan may warp - for example: Due to overheating
•heat up enamelled pans slowly
13
Page 14
Use
WARNING!
Never use pans with a misshapen base. A hollow or rounded base
can interfere with the operation of the overheating protection, so that
the appliance becomes too hot. This may lead to the glass top
cracking and the pan base melting. Damage arising from the use
of unsuitable pans or from boiling dry is excluded from the guarantee.
Minimum pan diameter
The diameter of the bottom of the pan must be at least 12 cm. You will achieve the best results by
using a pan with the same diameter as the cooking zone. If a pan is too small the zone will not work.
Pressure cookers
Induction cooking is very suitable for cooking in pressure cookers. The cooking zone reacts very
quickly, and so the pressure cooker is quickly up to pressure. As soon as you switch a cooking zone
off, the heating process stops immediately.
Pan detection
The cooking zone automatically detects a suitable pan placed on a cooking zone. The cooking zone
display lights up.
Integrated pan recognition
If a certain power level is set for a cooking zone and there is no suitable pan or any pan on the
cooking zone, then the cooking zone will not deliver any power. After a certain period, the cooking
zone will switch off automatically.
Grill plates
The hob has a Grill function (depending on the model) for using a grill plate or teppan yaki. The
function keeps the grill plate or teppan yaki at an ideal temperature for grilling.
Induction noises
A ticking sound
This sound can be caused at lower power level settings or by the automatic pot detection.
Pans are making noise
Pans can make some noise during cooking. This is caused by the energy flowing from the hob to
the pan. This is perfectly normal for some pans. It will not damage either the pans or the hob.
The fan is making noise
To increase the lifespan and performance of the electronics, the appliance is equipped with fans.
During intense use of the appliance, the fan is activated to cool down the appliance and you will
hear a buzzing sound. The fan still runs for several minutes after the hob has been switched off.

Power distribution of cooking zones
•Depending on the type of hob, the cooking zones can affect each other. When several of these
cooking zones are switched on at the same time, the capacity is shared automatically between
them.
•When the maximum capacity of the combination of cooking levels is reached during setting, one
or more zones are automatically reduced to the highest possible setting at that moment. This is
indicated by the flashing of the relevant control element.

cooking zone while its temperature is higher than 65 °C.
If the hob is switched off and at least one of the cooking zones is still hot, the inner circle remains
illuminated. When the temperature of the hob is reduced below 65 °C all lights turn off.
Overheat protection
•The hob is fitted with a cooling fan which cools the electronic components during cooking. The
fan may operate for a while even after the end of the cooking process.
•Induction cooking hob is also fitted with an overheating protector which protects the electronic
components from damage. The protector operates in several ways. When the cooking zone
temperature gets very high, the cooking power is automatically reduced. If this does not suffice,
the cooking zone power continues to decrease, until the safety mechanisms switches off the
cooking zone completely. When the cooking hob has cooled off, its total power will be available
again.

Page 24
Operation
Cooking with the PLUS menu
The PLUS menu allows cooking with semi-automatic programs, enabling temperature cooking for
all kinds of cookware that fit the purpose of the program.
Touch the PLUS menu keyto display the program line: keeping warm/heating up, frying/wok
and grill (in bridge mode).
Choose one of the Plus programs by touching the relevant symbol. Then you set the temperature
with the slider. You can toggle through the menu or temperature by long pressing the relating button
too.
When the program or temperature selection does not change for 3 seconds, the program is activated.
To deactivate a PLUS program, press the active program key for about three seconds or select a
power level manually.
Always add water, oil or butter before starting a program, use no empty pan or pot.
Keeping warm and Heating up
With this function you can for example melt chocolate (45 °C), keep food warm (70 °C), simmer (94
°C) or bring to boil (100 °C).
Frying/wok
With this function you can cook vegetable, fish, bacon, meat, fried potatoes or eggs by using butter
or oil.
Grill
This function is exclusively for bridged cooking zones, that are combined to a larger cooking zone.
Grilling is optimized for ASKO induction accessories grill plate and teppanyaki. But it will also work
with different cookware, but perhaps less accurate.
Some functions are indicating the heat up time, counting down. In the heating-up stage, the slider
and the set temperature will flash. When the set temperature is reached, a short beep will be emitted,
and the slider will be constantly lit. You may then start cooking.
The sensor which measures the temperature while cooking within the PLUS menu programs, is
located in the glass, below the cookware. Because of this there is always an offset between setpoint
and actual temperature of the content inside the cookware. The temperature of the content inside
the cookware is therefore also dependent on factors such as: type of pan, volume of liquid and
whether a lid is placed on the pan.
24
Page 25
Operation
INFORMATION!
Up to value 94 °C the programs allow the hob to reach and maintain automatically the set
temperature by measuring the glass surface temperature. This will avoid liquids overflowing and
burning on the bottom of the pan.
INFORMATION!
From 100 °C and higher temperatures the programs will heat up cookware with different timed
power steps. The set temperature serves as an indication which temperature range can be
reached approximately. Cooking process must be attended.
INFORMATION!
For more accuracy Celsius°Cooking™ cookware such as Frying Pan, Chef's Pot or the Probe is
recommend, with separate functions for it (see chapter Celsius°Cooking™).
INFORMATION!
These menu functions work best if they are started at the beginning of the cooking process. A
already hot surface will influence the performance.

Assigning the cookware to the cooking zone
Switch on the hob and wait until the end of the start up animation
Place the Celsius°Cooking™ cookware or a regular pot fitted with the Celsius°Cooking™ probe on
a desired cooking zone. After it has been detected, quickly tap twice with your fingertip on the handle
cap sensor or the probe housing to activate it. Right after the Hestan Cue mode keywill light up.
To assign the probe the Hestan Cue mode keywill light up on every possible cooking zone.
Press the Hestan Cue mode keyon the needed cooking zone. The Hestan Cue menu will be
opened. With a short press again it can be closed.
INFORMATION!
Please make sure that the appliance is already switched on before placing the Celsius°Cooking™
cookware so that the system can clearly identify its position.
Cooking with the embedded Hestan Cue programs
The hob comes along with integrated Hestan Cue programs, optimized for Celsius°Cooking™
cookware. When cooking with one of the available Celsius Cooking cookware, the possible cooking
methods will be shown in the opened menu, which are applicable to the cookware used. Use the
one that’s fits the desired purpose:
Heating up and frying
This program is to reach high temperatures rapidly. Always add oil or butter before starting it. For
healthy cooking don’t exceed the smoke point of the used oil.
Boiling or cooking with water
This program is to reach higher water temperatures quick. Always add water to the cookware before
starting it.
Slow cooking or sous vide
This program is to control low to medium temperatures, preventing high bottom temperatures. Larger
quantities and thicker dishes need to be stirred occasionally to ensure a homogeneous heat
distribution.

Operation
Using the probe as a cooking thermometer
When a Celsius°Cooking™ probe is used it can also be used as a thermometer to just monitor e.g.
the core temperature of a certain dish. This can be done on normal level cooking or PLUS menu
programs. To use the probe as thermometer, lift up the pan you want to use for a few seconds, place
it back on the zone and activate the probe by tapping. When the Hestan Cue symbol appears on
the display, touch it.
The measured temperature is displayed dimmed.
Probe removal detection
If the probe is moved out during cooking, the hob will detect that and stop heating. When placed
back, the user can confirm that by touching the now blinking Hestan Cue mode button, or it might
get re-detected automatically.
NOTE!
e.g. adding cold water to the pot might trigger this detection too!
Switching off the cooking zone
Touch the slider for the selected cooking zone and hold it for 3 seconds. The signwill appear on
the display.
The cooking zone can also be turned of by pressing the selected Hestan Cue program key and hold
it for 3 seconds

INFORMATION!
While the Celsius°Cooking™ probe is used to control the temperature of the content inside a pan
(e.g. water or soup) the Celsius°Cooking™ cookware is controlled on the pan bottom temperature.
Due to this there is always an offset between set-point and actual temperature of the content
INSIDE the cookware. When e.g. trying to boil a liquid on the Celsius°Cooking™ cookware it may
be necessary to set a higher temperature to reach the boiling point. Reaching the boiling point
is also further dependent on the volume of the liquid and whether a lid is placed on top of the
cookware. Furthermore, regular stirring improves this behaviour, even when cooking with the
probe.

Installation
Safety
If the safety instructions and warnings are not followed, the
manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any resulting damage.
• This appliance should only be connected by a registered installer.
• Check the appliance for transport damage. Do not connect a
damaged appliance.
• The walls and the worktop surrounding the appliance must be
heat resistant up to at least 85 °C. Even though the appliance
itself does not get hot, the heat of a hot pan could discolour or
deform the wall.
• The worktop into which the hob is fitted should be flat.
• The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for
exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels (not
applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back into the
room).
• Extraction hoods and other appliances that extract cooking
vapours can affect the safe operation of appliances that burn gas
or other fuel (including those in other rooms) by backflowing
combustion gases. These gases can potentially lead to carbon
monoxide poisoning. After installing an extraction hood or other
vapour extractor, the operation of appliances with flue gas
extraction must be tested by a competent person to ensure that
the combustion gases do not flow back.
• Local regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be
fulfilled.
• For stationary appliances permanently connected to the fixed
wiring, compliance with this requirement is considered to be met
if the instruction concerning disconnection incorporated in the
fixed wiring is in accordance with AS/NZS 3000.
Electrical connection
• This appliance must be earthed.
• The electrical connection must comply with national and local
regulations.
44
Page 45
Installation
• Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions
(voltage and frequency) and the adjustment of the appliance are
compatible.
• Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring
in accordance with the wiring rules.
• The voltage, frequency, power and the country for which the
appliance has been designed are shown on the appliance rating
plate.
• For class I appliances, check that your home’s electrical system
provides proper earthing.
• The wall plug socket and plug should always be accessible.
• If a stationary appliance is not fitted with a supply cord and a
plug, or with other means for disconnection from the supply mains
having a contact separation in all poles that provide full
disconnection under overvoltage category III conditions, the
means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring
in accordance with the wiring rules. This is also applicable for
appliances with a supply cord and plug when the plug is not
accessible after installing the appliance. Using an omnipolar
switch with a contact separation of at least 3 mm fitted in the fixed
wiring will fulfil this requirement.
• The connection cable must hang freely and should not be fed
through a drawer.
• For connecting, use an approved cable with the correct cable
diameters appropriate for the connection. The cable casing should
be made of rubber (preferably of the H05V2V2 or H07V2V2 type).
• Before connecting the appliance, make sure the voltage indicated
on the rating plate conforms to the voltage in your power mains.
• The connection should be adjusted to the current and fuses.
• The appliance should not be connected to the mains via a
multi-plug adapter or extension cable, as the safe use of the
equipment cannot be guaranteed.
• After installation, the parts carrying electrical current and insulated
parts shall be protected against contact.

Air vents in the lower kitchen cabinet
•Normal operation of the induction cooking hob electronic components requires sufficient air
circulation.
Lower cabinet without an oven
•There must be an opening with a height of
no less than 140 mm along the entire width
of the cabinet in the cabinet rear wall.
•A horizontal partition panel should be
installed underneath the induction hob
along its entire length. There should be at
least 20 mm of clearance between the
lower end of the appliance and the
partition panel. Adequate ventilation
should be allowed from the rear side.
•The hob is fitted with a fan located in its lower part. If there is a drawer underneath the countertop,
do not use it to store small objects or paper as these could, if sucked into the fan, damage the
fan and the cooling system. Moreover, do not use the drawer to store aluminium foil or flammable
substances or liquids (such as sprays). Keep such substances away from the cooking hob.
Danger of explosion! There should be at least 20 mm of clearance between the contents of the
drawer and the fan inlet vents.
Lower cabinet with an oven
•Only install ovens with a cooling fan under
the induction hob. Before installing the
oven, the kitchen cabinet rear wall has to
be removed in the area of the opening for
installation. In addition, there should be an
opening of at least 6 mm in the front side,
along the entire width of the cabinet.
•If other appliances are installed under the
induction cooking hob, we cannot
guarantee their correct operation.
* For optimal hob performance, a ventilation gap of ≥6 mm is advised.
** A gap of 20 mm is recommended at the front between the cabinet and intermediate shelf for better
ventilation of the hob.

Installing the appliance
The appliance may only be installed into a temperature- and water-resistant countertop, such as a
countertop made of (natural) stone (marble, granite), or solid wood (the edges along the cut-out
have to be sealed). When installing into a countertop made of ceramics, wood, or glass, a wooden
sub-frame should be used. The frame is not supplied with the appliance. Internal dimension of the
basic unit should be at least equal to the internal cutout for the appliance. Only in this way the
appliance can be serviced from the underside in case a problem might occur. Attach sealing tape
along the perimeter of the bottom of the glass panel.
First, feed the power cord through the cutout. Place the appliance over the centre of the cutout.
Connect the appliance to the power mains (see chapter Technical installation). Before sealing the
appliance, test its operation. Seal the slot between the appliance and the countertop using a silicone
sealant. The silicone sealant used to seal the appliance has to be temperature-resistant (to at least
160 °C). Smooth out the silicone sealant using a suitable tool. Observe the instructions for use of
the selected silicone sealant. Do not switch on the appliance until the silicone sealant has dried
completely.
1. Silicone sealant
2. Sealing tape
WARNING!
Pay particular attention to built-in dimensions with (natural) stone countertops. When choosing
the silicone sealant, observe the countertop material and consult the countertop manufacturer.
Use of inappropriate silicone sealants can result in permanent discolouration of some parts.
