Induction Cooking System
Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking technology. It
works by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat directly at the pan, rather than
indirectly through heating the glass surface. The glass becomes hot only because the
pan eventually warms it up.

Use of the Induction Hob
Before using the Induction hob
• Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
• Remove any protective film that may still be on your Induction hob.
Touch Control
• The control responds 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 sound each time a touch is registered.
• Make sure the controls are always clean, dry and that there is no object (e.g. a uten-
sil 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. Follow the steps under ‘To start cooking’.
3. 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,
aluminum or copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and
earthenware.

Note: Some cookware available in the market is not in good quality or has an effective ferromagnetic area which is much smaller than the diameter of the cookware itself. Avoid using this
cookware as the induction cooktop may not function properly or it may cause damage to the
cooktop.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the
same size as the cooking zone. Always center your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the ceramic hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
Note: Some type of cookware may cause noise during cooking – the noise is normal and does
not mean any malfunction of the appliance.
