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.

Before using your New 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.

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.

• You will hear a beep 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 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’ on page 5.

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, aluminium or

copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and 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
the same size as the cooking zone. Use pans whose diameter is as large as the
graphic of the zone selected.Using a pot a slightly wider energy will be used at
its maximum efficiency.If you use smaller pot efficiency could be less than
expected.Pot less than 140 mm could be undetected by the hob. Always centre
your pan on the cooking zone.

Always lift pans off the Induction hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the
glass.
