A Word on Induction Cooking
Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking
technology. It works by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat directly in
the pan, rather than indirectly through heating the glass surface. The glass
becomes hot only because the pan eventually warms it up.
Before using your New Induction Hob
EN-9
• Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
• Remove any protective film that may still be on your Induction 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 its 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
• Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction
cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the
packaging or on the bottom of the pan.
• You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out
a magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it
is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction.
• If you do not have a magnet:
1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.
2. If does not flash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.
• Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless steel, aluminium or
copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
EN-10
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is
the same size as the cooking zone. Use pans whose diameter is as large as the
graphic of the zone selected. Using a pot a slightly wider energy will be used at
its maximum efficiency.If you use smaller pot efficiency could be less than
expected. Pot less than 140 mm could be undetected by the hob. Always centre
your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the Induction hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the
glass.
Using your Induction Hob
To start cooking
1. Touch the ON/OFF control for three seconds.
After power on, the buzzer beeps once, all displays
show “ – “ or “ – – “, indicating that the induction
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.
EN-11
3. Touching the heating zone selection control，and a
indicator next to the key will flash

• If you press + and – keys simultaneously, the power setting returns to 0 and
the cooking zones switches off
• You can modify the heat setting at any time during cooking.
If the display flashes alternately with the heat
setting
This means that:

• the pan you’re using is not suitable for induction cooking or,
• the pan is too small or not properly centered on the cooking zone.
No heating takes place unless there is a suitable pan on the cooking zone.
The display will automatically turn off after 2 minutes if no suitable pan is
placed on it.

EN-12
2. Turn the cooking zone off by scrolling down to”0” or touching”-“ and”+”
control together. Make sure the display shows”0”
3. Turn the whole cooktop off by touching the ON/OFF control.
When the ON/OFF key is pressed, the induction hob returns
to standby mode if no other operation is carried out within
one minute.
4. 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 turning the cooking zones on).
• When the controls are locked, all the controls except the ON/OFF control are
disabled.

Over-Temperature Protection
A temperature sensor equipped can monitor the temperature inside the
induction hob. When an excessive temperature is monitored, the induction hob
will stop operation automatically.
Detection of Small Articles
When an unsuitable size or non-magnetic pan (e.g. aluminium), or some other
small item (e.g. knife, fork, key) has been left on the hob, the zone
automatically goes on to standby in 1 minute. The fan will keep cooling down the
induction hob for a further 1 minute.
Auto Shutdown Protection
Auto shut down is a safety protection function for your induction hob. It shuts
down automatically if ever you forget to turn off your cooking. The default
working times for various power levels are shown in the below table: .
When the pot is removed, the induction hob can stop heating immediately and
the hob automatically switch off after 2 minutes.
People with a heart pace maker should consult with their doctor before
using this unit.
Cooking Guidelines
EN-14
Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly. At
extremely high termperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and
this presents a serious fire risk.
Cooking Tips
• When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting.
• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.
• Minimise 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 flavours develop without overcooking the
food. You should also cook egg-based and flourthickened 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.

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.
Heat Settings
The settings below are guidelines only. The exact setting will depend on several
