A Word on Induction Cooking
Induction cooking is an advanced cooking technology. It is safe, efficient and economical as 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.
• Safer as no heating takes place unless a suitable pan is placed on the cooking zone.
• Save energy, because heat is transferred without loss.
Before Using Your New Induction Hob
• Read this Instruction / Installation Manual, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
• Remove any protective film that may still be on your induction hob.
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 are 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.
9
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 centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the induction hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
Using the Touch Controls
• The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure.
• Use the ball of your finger.
• You will hear an audible tone 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
piece of cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the controls difficult to operate.

Cooking Guidelines
Take care when frying as oil and fat heat up very quickly. At extremely high temperatures, 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 flour thickened 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 flavoursome 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.
Stir-frying
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.
