IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
Operational
Read these instructions carefully before using this product.
Proper installation — Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
Never leave the appliance unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Never use your appliance as a work or storage surface.
Wear proper apparel — Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the appliance.
Never leave any objects or utensils on the appliance.
Do not place or leave any magnetisable objects (eg credit cards, memory cards) or electronic devices (eg computers, MP3 players) near the appliance, as they may be affected by its electromagnetic field.
We recommend using plastic or wooden kitchen utensils for cooking with your induction cooktop.
Storage in or on appliance — Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or near surface units.
Do not place or leave aluminum foil on the cooktop.
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Use only dry potholders — Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
Use proper pan size — This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
After use, always turn off the cooking zones and the cooktop as described in this manual (ie by using the touch controls). Do not rely on the pan detection feature to turn off the cooking zones when you remove the pans.
Do not allow children to play with the appliance or sit, stand, or climb on it.
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above the appliance. Children climbing on the cooktop could be seriously injured.
Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use.

INTRODUCTION
Introducing your cooktop
Congratulations on your new purchase. Your induction cooktop is the ultimate in induction cooking, giving you the speed, precision, and simplicity of electronic control, and the easy-care elegance of a ceramic glass surface. For more information, visit our local website listed on the back cover.
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. This technology has a number of advantages over traditional radiant energy cooking:
Heat-up times are much faster.
Use is safer as no heating takes place unless a suitable pan is placed on the cooking zone.
As heat is transferred without loss, you save energy.
Before using your new cooktop
Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety and warnings’ section.
Remove any protective film that may still be on your cooktop.
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.
Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and there is no object (eg a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the controls difficult to operate.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT COOKWARE
To check if cookware is suitable
Carry out a magnet test:
Move a magnet across the base of the pan. If the magnet is attracted then the pan is induction suitable.
Note: Make sure attraction is consistent across the base of the pan. If there are gaps, such as an indented manufacturer’s logo, then the performance of the pan will be impaired.
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.
Quality of cookware
IMPORTANT!
The quality of your cookware can affect cooking performance. Only use induction compatible cookware that has been specifically designed for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or the bottom of the pan.
Cookware that has a high content of ferromagnetic material that continues up from the base into the sides of the pan will give the best cooking performance. See below:
Quickest heating Performance
High content of ferromagnetic material.
Heating area is consistent across the base and continues up the sides of pan.
6
Average heating Performance
Reduced area of ferromagnetic material.
Reduced zone of heating, results in poor cooking performance and slower heating.
Slow heating Performance
Very limited area of ferromagnetic material.
Results in very slow heating performance.
Note: This type of pot is good for very delicate tasks such as melting chocolate, as heating is very slow.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT COOKWARE
Cookware guidelines
Cookware made from the following materials is suitable:
stainless steel with a magnetic base or core
aluminium and copper with a magnetic base or core
cast iron
steel or enamelled steel.
Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable:
pure stainless steel
aluminium or copper without a magnetic base
glass
wood
porcelain
ceramic or earthenware.
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 similar in size as the cooking zone. A small pot on a large cooking zone may not be detected. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the cooktop – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
