Fastening the cooktop to the bench
1 Turn the cooktop upside down and place it on a soft surface.
2 Spread the seal around the edges of the ceramic glass with the adhesive side facing
down, making sure that the whole perimeter is sealed. Cut off any excess material.
3 Mount the supplied clamps (A) and screws (B) onto the cooktop, as shown (without
tightening the screws).
4 Place the cooktop into the cutout, then tighten the screws to clamp the cooktop
securely to the bench.
5 Using a sharp cutter or trimmer knife, trim the excess sealing material around the edge
of the cooktop. Take care not to damage the benchtop.
Note: if your bench is thicker than 40 mm, recess the underside to between
30 and 40 mm.

Connecting the cooktop to the mains power supply
IMPORTANT!
●
This cooktop must be connected to the mains power supply only by a suitably
qualified person.
●
This cooktop must be earthed.
●
Before connecting the cooktop to the mains power supply, check that:
●
the domestic wiring system is suitable for the power drawn by the cooktop
●
the voltage corresponds to the value given on the rating plate
●
the power supply cable sections can withstand the load specified on the rating plate.
●
To connect the cooktop to the mains power supply, do not use adapters, reducers, or
branching devices, as they can cause overheating and fire.
●
The power supply cable must not touch any hot parts and must be positioned so that its
temperature will not exceed 75 oC at any point.
Power supply
CE302C 2900W @ 220-240V~ (12.6 A)

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
TO BE COMPLETED BY THE INSTALLER
Is the cooktop earthed?
Check that the power supply cable is NOT touching the base of the cooktop. This
will ensure that the cable is not damaged by heat from the cooktop.
Check that the power supply cable is not accessible via cupboard doors or drawers.
Is the cooktop clamped down securely?
Check that all the cooking zones function correctly. Turn on all of them to a high
setting and leave them on for at least one minute.
Are all elements glowing?
Are all ‘Hot surface’ indicators glowing?
Have you shown the customer how to use the cooktop? Make sure you explain to
the customer about the ‘Hot surface’ indicators. Encourage them to read the full
user guide before using the cooktop.

To start cooking
USING YOUR COOKTOP
●
Turn the control dial of the cooking zone
you wish to use to the High setting, then
adjust as necessary.
●
When using dual cooking zones, you may
choose to use the inner zone only () or
the full dual cooking zone ().
●
Some models have a cooking zone with a
unique SuperSimmer feature. This special,
low turndown range is excellent for the
most delicate cooking tasks, like melting
chocolate or simmering soups and stews.
●
For further advice on cooking and using
the SuperSimmer feature, see ‘Cooking
guidelines’ following.
‘Hot surface’ indicators
●
As soon as you turn a cooking zone
on, its ‘Hot surface’ indicator will start
glowing.
●
It will continue to glow even after you
have turned the cooking zone off, until
the glass becomes cool enough to be
safely touched.
When you have finished cooking
●
When you have finished using a cooking
zone, turn its dial to the off (O) position.
●
When you have finished using your
cooktop, check that all dials are turned
off.

COOKING GUIDELINES
Cookware
●
Use heavy-gauge, flat, smooth-based cookware that matches the diameter of the
cooking zone. This will provide good contact with the glass and help reduce cooking
times. Low heat or slow cooking is often due to incorrect cookware size.
●
Cookware with a stainless steel sandwich base or enamelled cast iron will give you the
best results.
●
Saucepans or heavy frying pans with jagged edges or a rough base will scratch the
glass.
●
Always lift pans off the cooktop - do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
●
Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the cooktop.
●
Aluminium and copper-based cookware will leave metallic stains on the cooktop. To
prevent these building up, clean the cooktop after every use following the instructions
in ‘Care and cleaning’. If the metallic stains are allowed to burn onto the surface, they
may react with the glass and may no longer be removable. They don’t, however, affect
performance.
●
It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven, or another cooking zone, on the glass
surface when the surface is cool.
●
Avoid placing anything on a hot cooking zone until it has cooled completely.
16
Page 19
COOKING GUIDELINES
IMPORTANT!
●
Never leave the appliance unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite.
●
Take care when deep-frying: oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high
setting.
General cooking tips
●
Using a lid will reduce cooking times through retaining the heat.
●
Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
●
Start cooking on a high setting and reduce it when the food has come to the boil or
heated through.
●
Even after a cooking zone has been turned off, its glass surface retains enough heat to
continue cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans from hot cooking zones when the
food is cooked.
Cooking rice, simmering
●
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.
●
Simmering occurs below boiling point, when bubbles are just rising occasionally to the
surface of the cooking liquid. It’s the key to delicious soups and tender stews because
the flavours develop without overcooking the food. Egg-based sauces are best kept
below boiling point throughout cooking, and flour-based sauces should also be gently
simmered after they have reached boiling point.
Using the SuperSimmer feature (some models only)
●
The front right cooking zone on some models has a unique SuperSimmer feature. This
allows the cooking zone to be turned down to very low and even heat settings. These
are ideal for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces, simmering
soups and stews, and keeping cooked food hot.
●
The high settings of the SuperSimmer cooking zone are just as powerful as those of the
other cooking zones, allowing food to be browned, seared, sautéed, or boiled before
simmering, all on the same cooking zones.
Searing steak
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 and season it to taste.
4 Lower the meat onto the hot pan.
5 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 vary between 2 to 8 minutes
per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is: the firmer it feels, the more ‘well
done’ it will be.
6 Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and
become tender before serving.

CARE AND CLEANING
IMPORTANT!
●
For your safety, switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall before any cleaning.
In this case, there will be no ‘Hot surface’ indication, but the cooking zones may still
be hot! Take extreme care.
●
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean your cooktop.
●
Do not use scourers or any harsh/abrasive cleaning agents to clean your cooktop, as
these can scratch the ceramic glass or stainless steel.

●
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and
mild detergent. A microfibre or
‘glass’ cloth is ideal for this.
●
Wipe dry with a clean cloth or
paper towel.
1 Remove the soiling with ceramic
cooktop cleaner using a sponge
or non-abrasive scourer suitable
for ceramic glass.
2 Remove any excess cleaner and
wipe dry with a clean cloth or
paper towel.
3 Apply ceramic cooktop
conditioner or protector following
the instructions on the dispenser.
A microfibre or ‘glass’ cloth is
ideal for this.
Remove these immediately with a
spatula or razor blade scraper
suitable for ceramic glass cooktops,
but beware of hot spills and surfaces:
1 Hold the blade or utensil at a 30o
angle and scrape the soiling or
spill to a cool area of the cooktop.
2 Immediately clean the soiling up
with a dish cloth or paper towel.
3 Follow the instructions for ‘Light
soiling on glass after every use’
above.
Before cleaning, make sure
that the glass is a safe
temperature to touch.
●
Heavy-duty scourers, some
nylon scourers and harsh/
abrasive cleaning agents
may scratch the glass.
Always read the label to
check if your cleaner or
scourer is suitable.
●
Never leave cleaner
residue on the cooktop:
the glass may become
stained.
●
Remove stains left by
melts and sugary food or
spillovers immediately. If
left to cool on the glass,
they may be difficult
to remove or even
permanently damage the
glass surface.
●
Cut hazard: the blade in
a scraper is razor-sharp
when the safety cover
is retracted. Use with
extreme care and always
store safely out of reach of
children.
