IMPORTANT SAFEGUARD S

When using the induction hob please follow these basic safety precautions.

1. Please read all instructions before use.

2. Make sure your electricity supply matches the voltage shown on the appliance.

3. This induction hob is for household use only. It is not suitable for commercial use, or for use outdoors.

4. Using the induction hob with accessories not recommended by the manufacturer may result in fire, electric
shock or injury and should be avoided.

5. Place the induction hob on a level, sturdy and dry surface.

6. Do not let the power cord hang over the edge of your table or worktop, where a child could grab it or
people could trip over it. The power cord must not become tangled or touch any hot surfaces.

7. Do not place the induction hob on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in or near a heated oven.

8. Do not place the induction hob on an iron surface, a polished wood surface, or any other very delicate
surface.

9. To protect against electric shock, never immerse the induction hob, power cord or plug in water or any

other liquid. Do not let the power cord or plug get wet.

10. The induction hob is not intended for use by children or infirm people unless they have been adequately

supervised by a responsible person to ensure they can use it s afely. Children should be supervised to
ensure they do not play with the induction hob.

11. The induction hob should be sited at least 10cm away from a wall, so the airflow through the hob is not

compromised.

12. Do not place metal or magnetic articles such as credit cards, computer discs, etc. which are affected by

magnetic fields on the hob.

13. The induction hob heats very rapidly, so place the food into the pan first before turning the hob on. Heating

an empty pan can discolour the metal and may warp the base.

14. Place all pans centrally on the glass. Do not use a pan with a base larger than 22cm as the heat created

may cause the plastic casings to deform.

15. Do not use a heat diffuser or place any other material between the hob and the pan when in use.

16. Do not insert anything into any of the air outlets on the hob.

17. If the glass hob surface is cracked, turn the power off immediately and do not use.

18. Do not use the induction hob if the power cord or plug show any signs of damage, or if the appliance is

dropped, damaged or working incorrectly. Call the helpline on 015394 88100 to arrange a repair or
replacement. Never try to repair the induction hob yourself as this may cause electric shock.

COOKING U SING THE IN DUCTION H OB

Induction cooking uses an electromagnetic coil to convert energy into heat. When the hob is turned on, and
when an induction suitable pan is in place on the hob, a magnetic field is generated this heats the pan and
therefore the food inside it.

This induction hob has a simple to use dial that allows you to adjust the temperature setting. You can also set
the panel to show either power or temperature.

This induction hob has a timer function that allows you to cook for a certain amount of time before switching off.
This prevents food boiling dry or burning.

The induction hob has fully integrated safety features including pan detection, boil dry protection and auto shut­off.

SUITABLE COOKWARE FOR TH E IN DUCTION HOB

Only use flat-bottomed pans that are induction suitable with this hob. If you are unsure whether the cookware
you have is suitable for use with this hob please contact the pan manufacturer or hold a magnet to the base of
the pan. If you find that the magnet sticks, the pan can be used on the hob. If the cookware is unsuitable for use,
the hob will not detect the pan.

The induction hob is suitable for pans with a base diameter of 12cm–22cm.

Metal cooking utensils are not recommended since they can be heated through the induction hob if left in the
pan during cooking.

HOW TO USE THE IN DUCTION H OB

1. Place the induction hob on a level, sturdy and dry surface.

2. Plug the induction hob into the mains. When the induction hob is plugged in there will be a beep. This
beep indicates that the unit is connected to the power supply.

3. Place the pan centrally over the cooking area on the hob.

4. Turn the hob on by pressing the on/off button. The display will show the word ‘on’ and the fan will start up.

5. Press the menu button to choose either power (P) or temperature (°C). A light will indicate which you have
chosen. The unit will make a small sound as the electromagnetic coil is activated and the magnet ‘grips’
the pan and starts to heat. The display will show the current power setting or temperature setting that you
have chosen. You can change the power/temperature by turning the dial.

6. To set the timer, set your dish to cook on the desired power/temperature setting. Then press the menu
button to go to the timer symbol. The time is shown in hours and minutes, and the display will show 0:00
to indicate that no time has been set. Turn the dial to set the desired length of cooking time. The hob will
wait 6 seconds after you have set the time and then start heating. The display will then st art to rotate
between showing the power/temperature you have selected and the time left to cook. Once it reaches the
final minute of cooking the timer will count down in seconds. At the end of the timed session the hob will
turn off and the fan will run for a minute to cool the hob. During timer cooking you can adjust the heat up
or down. To stop the timer, turn the hob off, then back on again and it will reset to 0:00.

7. To turn off the hob press the on/off switch. The fan will run automatically for a minute to cool the hob.
