Important Message for Cardiac Pacemaker Implant Patients!

THE INDUCTION HOB GENERATES MAGNETIC FIELDS IN ITS IMMEDIATE SURROUNDINGS. Your
pacemaker must be designed in compliance with the corresponding regulations in order for no
interference to be caused between it and the hotplate. Consult the pacemaker manufacturer or your
doctor to determine whether it complies with the regulations in force or whether any incompatibilities exist.

Section 3. Operating the Appliance

3.1. Cookware Suitable for Induction Hob

8

Induction hobs are made from smooth, ceramic glass, the heat
comes from a magnetic induction coil which heats the cookware
but not the cooking surface. The heat from the cookware is
transferred to the food.
Pans suitable for induction hob use must be made from
magnetisable metal such as cast iron or steel. Pure aluminium,
copper or glass pans will not work with this type of hob unless the
base is bonded with a magnetic metal.
Check that pans are attracted to a magnet - this ensures that
they are suitable for use with an induction hob.

It is important that you use only metal pans specifically designed
and/or approved for use on Induction Hobs. Never allow melamine
or plastic containers to come in contact with the heat zones.

3.2. Cookware Suitable for Ceramic Hob

Ceramic hobs do not pick pot. You can use any kind of pot or
pan.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against
the glass, and is the same size as the cooking zone.

Clean spillages from the hob surface as soon as possible after use.
Always ensure that the surface has cooled down before cleaning.

Use a soft cloth or kitchen paper to clean the surface. If the spillage
has dried on the surface you may need to use a specialist vitro­ceramic glass cleaner, available from all good supermarkets.

Do not use other abrasive cleaners and/or wire wool etc as this may
scratch the surface of the hob.

4.2. What to do if something goes wrong

There is no power to the appliance:

- Check there is not a power cut

- Check there is power to the electric socket/appliance

- Has the set time elapsed? – see section 3.3.3.

After cooking the letter ‘H’ is displayed:

- This is the hot surface indicator – it will remain on until the
appropriate heat zone has completely cooled down.
