INTRODUCTION TO INDUCTION COOKING
Your SALTER induction hob is made from smooth, easy to clean microcrystal glass. The heat
for cooking comes from a magnetic induction coil which directly heats the base of the pan
with great speed and eciency. Using this system, temperature adjustments can be made
very rapidly, giving you precise control over your cooking.
To be suitable for induction cooking, pans need to be made from a ferrous metal such as
cast iron or steel. Pure copper or pure aluminium pans will not be suitable unless they have
a bonded ferrous base. An easy test is to hold a magnet to the base of the pan. If the magnet
sticks to the pan, the pan will be suitable for induction cooking. For ecient heat transfer, the
base of the pan must also be flat and needs to have a diameter of at least 12cm (24cm max).
See table below:
SUITABLE COOKWARE UNSUITABLE
Base diameter between 12cm and 24cm Base diameter less than 12cm or greater than 24cm
Flat bottom Rounded or uneven bottom
Steel or cast iron (with magnetic base) Aluminium or copper (non-magnetic base)
Stainless Steel (with magnetic base) Ceramic, terracotta or glass (eg pyrex)
PREPARATION FOR USE
• Remove all packaging
• Position the hob on a firm, flat and level work surface, keeping a clear space all around it
for ventilation. Do not place directly below overhanging shelves, curtains or cupboards.
• Plug into a suitable wall socket ensuring that the mains cord will be kept safely out of the
way. The unit will beep and all LEDs will flash once and then enter standby mode, where the
display is blank.
QUICK START GUIDE
Having prepared the product for use (as described above):
• Place a suitable pan, with its contents, onto the hob surface.
• Press the power button. The display will show ‘0‘.
• Press the MANUAL (POWER) button once. The program will start to heat the pan.
• Press the or buttons at any time to increase or decrease the power level as required
between 200W and 2200W.
• Press the power button to switch o the induction at any time. Including when in CHILD
LOCK mode.
Notes
• It is normal for the fan to keep running for a few minutes after the induction is turned o.
Allow the fan to come to a stop before switching the unit o at the mains.
• The device will enter standby mode if not operated within 2 minutes.
• If the pan you have placed on the hob is unsuitable for induction cooking (see table) then
the unit will beep repeatedly and will switch to ‘E1’ display. Use a suitable pan to continue.

NOTE: To override the programmed power setting at any time; simply use the / buttons
to raise or lower the power as required. So, for example, if the heat is too high, press to

SAFETY ADVICE
• Induction hobs will only heat metal objects of a certain size and type (eg saucepans!)
Therefore if you were to place just your hand on the cold hob and then switch it on, there
would be no heat transfer. Even a metal ring on your finger will not become hot as it is too
small in size. However, please note carefully the following safety advice:
• During normal use in cooking with a pan, some areas of the glass hob surface will become
hot due to heat being transferred to the glass from the base of the pan. Allow the surface to
cool completely before touching, cleaning or storing the appliance.
• Never place other objects (such as metal cooking utensils) on the hob surface with the pan
as they will heat up also.
• If a pan boils over, always switch o the power immediately, remove the plug from the
mains supply and allow everything to cool completely before cleaning up the spill.
ERROR CODES

E2 Overheat Protection; Switch o at the mains and allow to cool before re-use
E3 Mains voltage too high
E4 Mains voltage too low
E5 Temperature sensor error; switch o at the mains. Contact HoMedics Service if error persists
E6 Boil dry protection; switch o and check the pan has something in before restarting
Pan not suitable; Use a suitable induction pan (see suitable cookware in introduction to
cooking section, pg 3.)
CLEANING AND CARE
• Before any cleaning operation always switch o and disconnect the appliance from the
mains power supply and allow to cool completely. To keep your appliance in the best
condition; clean after every use and before storing.
• The hob must not be immersed in water. Never hold under running water.
• Wipe the external surfaces with a clean, damp cloth as required.
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaning products or solvents.
• To avoid scratching the glass, please avoid dragging pans across the hob surface,
particularly uncoated cast iron pans which can have a rough finish.
• Never attempt to disassemble any part of the product for cleaning or any other purpose.
• Periodically, we recommended using a vacuum cleaner to remove any build up of dust
from the fan housing on the underside of the product and the cooling vent at the rear of the
product. No disassembly is required for this procedure.
