To install these models, an opening with
the dimensions shown in figure 1 should
be cut into the unit's worktop.
The system for fixing the hob is intended
for use with kitchen units with a thickness
of 20, 30 and 40 mm.
The minimum distance between the surface of the hob and the lower part of the kitchen unit or the hood located above the
hob should be 650 mm. If the hood's installation instructions recommend that the
gap is greater than this, you should follow
this advice.
The unit where the hob and oven will be
located should be suitably fixed.
INSTALLATION WITH A CUTLERY
DRAWER OR LOW CUPBOARD
If you wish to have a cupboard or cutlery
drawer beneath the hob, you should install
a separation board between them. The
board should be installed 20 mm below the
bottom of the hob and an empty space of
at least 20 mm should be left at the back of
the cupboard (fig. 1).

INSTALLATION WITH A THERMOVENTILATED OVEN UNDER THE HOB
The oven should be installed according to
the corresponding manual.
If installing over a thermoventilated oven,
please remember that this hob has been
certified to work only with TEKA brand
ovens.
An opening of 20 mm should be made in
the back part of the kitchen unit so that
cold air is able to enter (see figure 1).
the gasket should be put on the lower side
of the glass. Silicone should not be
applied between the glass and the unit
worktop because if it becomes necessary to remove the hob from its position, the glass could break when trying
to detach it.
To fasten the cooking top to the kitchen
unit, use four clips fastened to the existing
openings in the lower part of the body (two
in front and two in back). There are two
possible ways to position the clips, as can
be seen in figure 2.
Warnings:
When hobs are handled before
being installed, care should be taken in
case there is any protruding part or
sharp edge which could cause injury.
When installing units or appliances above the hob, the hob should be
protected by a board so that the glass
cannot be damaged by accidental
blows or heavy weight.
The glues used in manufacturing
the kitchen unit and on the decorative
laminates and on the laminates that are
part of the worktop surface should be
made to tolerate temperatures of up to
100ºC.
TEKA does not assume any responsibility for any malfunction or
damage caused by faulty installation.
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE GUARANTEE DOES NOT COVER THE
GLASS IF IT SUFFERS A VIOLENT
BLOW OR IF IT IS USED IMPROPERLY.
Fixing the hob
When the gap has been properly sized,
Depending on the thickness of the worktop,
it is possible to use the self-tapping screws
that are provided as a fastening accessory
by putting them into the clip's round hole.
This hole will be threaded as the screw is
inserted into it. This should be done before
fixing the clip to the worktop.

operating.
Actions are carried out using the sensor
buttons marked on the control panel.
It is not necessary put pressure on the
glass; by simply touching the sensor button with your finger you will activate the
desired function.
The touch cursor can be used to adjust the
power levels (1-9) and to choose the time
(1-99) by sliding your finger over it. By sliding your finger to the right, the value will
increase, while sliding it to the left will
cause the value to decrease.
It is also possible to directly select the desired value by touching the area of the
touch cursor with your finger.
Each action is confirmed with a beep.
These hobs have the DIGI-Select
system: the selection of each plate and the
clock is made touching OVER THE
POWER INDICATOR DIGIT (3) AND THE
INDICATOR OF SELECTED TIME
DIGITS (12).
TURNING ON THE APPLIANCE
1 Touch the on sensor button (1) for at
least one second.
The touch control panel is activated and a
0 appears on all the power indicators (3).
The decimal point (14) flashes to indicate
that no cooking zone has been selected at
that time. If a cooking zone is hot, the
corresponding indicator will show an H and
a 0 alternately.
In IRS... models, if the Lock Function is
activated, the indicators in the cooking
zones will have an L. If there is a residual
heat on the cooking zones, the corresponding indicator will have an Land an H alter-
nately.
The next action must be taken within 20
seconds; otherwise, the touch control
panel will automatically turn off. If you
have chosen a heating element at a power
level of 0 and you don't change the value,
the heating element will no longer be
selected after 10 seconds.
When the touch control panel is activated,
it can be disconnected at any time by touching sensor (1), even if it has been
locked (see the section "Locking the sensor buttons of the hob"). Sensor button
(1) is always able to disconnect the
touch control panel.
ACTIVATING THE HEATING ELEMENTS
Once the touch control panel has been
activated by using sensor button (1),
you can turn on the chosen heating elements.
1 Choose the heating element by using the
corresponding indicator (3), in other
words, touching with the finger OVER
THE DIGIT. If the heating element is hot,
the corresponding indicator will go from
showing H to level 0.
2 Use the slider cursor (2) to choose the
power level, from between 0 and 9. By
doing so, the heating element will
remain activated.
Whenever the heating element is selected,
i.e. with the decimal point on, it is possible
to change its power level. If, after 10
17

seconds you have not chosen any operation, the heating element will no longer be
selected.
TURNING OFF A HEATING ELEMENT
The heating element may be turned off by
decreasing its power level to 0.
To deactivate the function, just touch the
sensor button (7) again.
If you turn off the appliance using the
on/off sensor button (1), at the same
time that the lock is activated, the appliance will continue to be locked the next time
it is turned on.
When a heating element is turned off, an H
will appear in the corresponding power
indicator instead, if the glass surface is hot
in the corresponding cooking zone, which
means that there is a risk of burns. When
the temperature has decreased, the indicator will turn off (if the hob is disconnected) or, if the hob is connected, the indicator will have a 0.
TURNING OFF ALL OF THE HEATING
ELEMENTS
It is possible to disconnect all of the heating
elements at the same time by suing the
on/off sensor button (1). All of the indicators of the heating elements will turn off.
The power of the heating elements can be

Energy supplied according to
the power level chosen
Please remember that the heating
elements adjust the energy supplied
according to the size and type (material) of
the cookware being used. Smaller cookware will receive less energy than larger
cookware.
Cookware detection
(models IRS…)
prevent the heating element from working
if there is no cookware placed on it or if the
cookware is inadequate.
The power indicator will show the symbol
meaning that "there is no cookware" if
no cookware is detected when the zone is
on or if the cookware is inadequate.
If the cookware is taken off of the cooking
zone while the zone is functioning, the
heating element will automatically stop
supplying energy and the "there is no
cookware" symbol will go on. When the
cookware is once again placed on the cooking zone, energy will once again be supplied at the power level that was chosen.
The cookware detection time is 10 minutes. If no cookware is placed on the zone
during this time, or if the cookware is
inadequate, the cooking zone will deactivate. The power indicator will show the
symbol "there is no cookware" or 0.
After use, disconnect the cooking
zone by using the touch control panel.
Otherwise, an undesired operation
could occur in the cooking zone if a
piece of cookware is accidentally placed on the cooking zone during the
following 10 minutes. Avoid possible
accidents!
Recovery Function
(models IRS…)
If the touch control panel has been turned
off by mistake, the Recovery Function
makes it possible to quickly recover all of
the settings made. These settings include
the power levels, the timer of the heating
elements, as well as the Power and HeatUp functions.
The induction cooking zones have an

the hob again. After doing so, to recover
the settings lost, touch the Stop sensor
button (7) before another six seconds
pass.
2 Using the Slider cursor (2), slide your fin-
ger up to power level 9 and then touch
the sensor button corresponding to level
9 again. A flashing A will appear in the
indicator.
This function will only work if at least one
heating element is active, regardless of
the Lock function.
The activation of the Recovery Function
will be confirmed by a beep.
Heat-up function
(Automatic start of cooking)
This function will help you when cooking,
since it is not necessary to be there at the
same time. The touch control panel preprogrammes the chosen heating element
to the maximum power level and then
lowers it to the desired power level, chosen
by you, after a certain amount of time. (See

The power level decreases to the desired
continuous power level (for example, 6)
within the 15 seconds following the activation of the fast heat-up function by means
of the slider cursor (2). The indicator will
flash alternately between 6 and A.
Example:
You want to cook at power level 6 on an
induction element and you want to quickly
heat up the contents of the cookware at the
beginning.
Choose power 9, touch the slider cursor (2)
and an Awill appear, then use the slide cursor (2) to lower the power level to 6. The
system will keep the heating element at
power level 9(maximum) for 120 seconds,
flashing alternately between 6 and A; after
that time, the system will automatically
lower the power level to 6.
MODIFYING THE POWER LEVEL
DURING THE FAST HEAT-UP
1 The chosen heating element must be
activated. The corresponding decimal
point must be on (14).
2 Change the power level using slider cur-
sor (2).
When increasing the power level using the
slider cursor (2), the system takes into
account the time passed up until that point.
Example:
1 Use the corresponding indicator (3) to
activate the desired heating element.
You are cooking on a heating element and
you have chosen power level 1 (48
21
GB
seconds of fast heat-up) and after 30
seconds you change to power level 4 (312
seconds). The remaining automatic boost
time will be 282 seconds (312 seconds
minus 30 seconds).
To disconnect this function, just change
the power levels after selecting the heating
element. This function has a maximum
operation time after which the hob will turn
disconnect.
The fast heat-up function will stop if the
cookware is taken off the heating element. If the cookware is once again placed on the heating element (10 minutes), the fast heat-up function will restart where it left off.
It is not possible to activate the fast heatup function on the heating elements if the
Power function is activated.
DISCONNECTING THE FAST HEAT-UP
FUNCTION
Once 10 seconds have passed after the
fast heat-up function has been activated:
1 Choose the heating element. The
corresponding decimal point must be on
(14).
2 Touch the slider cursor (2) to a lower
level.
The fast heat-up function will be automatically deactivated and the heating element
will stay on at a constant power level.
Keep warm function
(models IRS…)
By using this function, it is possible to keep
the food warm that is inside cookware placed on a cooking zone.
1 There is cookware on one of the heating
elements at a previously chosen power
level.
2 Touch the sensor (11) and the
symbol will appear in the indicator.
Power Function
(only models IRS…)
It is possible to concentrate additional
power in the induction cooking zones (see
values indicated with an * in the Introduction section) by using the Power function.
1 Choose the desired cooking zone by
using the corresponding sensor button
(3).
2 Touch the Power sensor button (6).
The power level indicator will show the
symbol P.
The Power function has a maximum duration of 10 minutes. After this time, the
power level will automatically adjust to
power level 9.
Each side of the cooker has an induction
generator that works with a maximum
power of 3,600 watts. Therefore, the
Power function cannot be used at the
same time on two induction elements that
are on the same side. In other words, if the
Power function is activated on an induction
element on the left side, the Power function can only be activated on another
induction element that is on the right side.
Once the Power function has been activated on one induction element, the other
induction element on the same side may
use the remaining power, up to a total of
3,600 watts. If its power level is too high,
the touch control panel will automatically
decrease it.
Afterward, the induction element will conti-

nue operating at power level 9. The function may also disconnect automatically if
the cooking zone temperature is very high.
If the cookware is taken off of the cooking
zone while the Power concentration function is activated, the function will remain
active and the time will continue to pass.
The Power function can also be activated
without placing cookware on the cooking
zone, but the cooking element will not
supply energy until cookware has been
placed on the cooking zone.

SAFETY IN CASE OF COVERED SENSOR BUTTONS
The touch control panel has a function that
makes it so the appliance automatically
detects when there is an object (cookware,
rag or spilled liquids) covering the panel
sensor buttons. This makes it possible to
prevent the object from activating or deactivating a heating element without you realising it.
When the touch control panel disconnects
the appliance for safety reasons, it begins
to beep and it shows an error message
until the object covering the control panel
is removed.
If the touch control panel is in stand-by
mode, it will not detect the presence of an
object on it; nonetheless, to be able to activate the control panel, it is necessary to
remove the object on the control panel
beforehand.
Timer function
This feature enables you to do your cooking while you yourself are not present: the
timed heating element will turn off automatically when the time you have chosen
elapses.
Around the indicator of the chosen time
there are four or three indicator lights (13)
that indicate which of the heating elements
is timed. For example, if you time the
upper left heating element, the light over
the indicator will turn on, on the left.
If the timer is not being used with any of
the heating elements, the clock can be
used as a chronometer that counts backwards (see section "Using the clock as a
