5 How to use the hob

General information on hob usage

General warnings

• Do not let any objects to fall on the hob. Even small objects such as saltshakers may damage the hob. Do not use cracked hobs. Water may seep through these cracks and cause a short circuit. If the surface is damaged in any way (e.g. visible cracks), turn off the fuse first, then call the authorized service to unplug the product to reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Do not use unbalanced and easily tilting pots/pans on the hob.
• Do not heat the pots/pans and pots empty. The pots and the appliance may be damaged.
  • Always turn off the hob's burners after each use.
• You shall damage the appliance if you operate the hobs without any pot or pots/pans. Always turn off the hobs after each operation.
  • After each use the cooking surface will be hot, so do not put the plastic pots/pans on the cooking surface. Clean such material on the surface immediately.
• Sudden temperature changes on the glass cooking surface may cause damage, be careful not to spill cold liquids during cooking.
• Put a sufficient amount of food in pots and pans. Thus, you can prevent food from pouring forth out of the pots/pans and will not need to clean unnecessarily.
• Do not place the covers of pots and pans on burners/zones.

- Place the pots by centering them on the burners/zones. If you wish to place a pot on a different burner/zone, do not slide it towards the desired burner; rather, lift it first and then put it on the other burner.

Operating principle of the induction hob

Induction hob is like an open circuit. The circuit completes when a cooking pots/pans suitable for induction cooking is placed on it and an electronic system below the glass surface generates a magnetic field. The metal base of the pots/pans is heated by taking energy from this magnetic field. Thus, the heat is not generated on the surface of the hob, but directly on the pots/pans above it. Glass surface is heated with the heat of the cooking pots/pans.

Advantages of cooking with induction Induction hobs offer some advantages as the heat is transferred directly to the cooking pots/pans.

• Foods that overflow during cooking do not burn rapidly as the glass cooking surface is not heated directly. It is cleaned more easily.
• Cooking shall be faster as the heat is generated directly on the cooking pots/pans. Thus, it saves time and energy with respect to other hob types.
• As the heat is given directly to the cooking pots/pans, there is no heat loss, and it provides a more efficient cooking.
• The fact that the heat transfer stops and the cooking surface is not heated directly when the cooking pots/pans is removed from the cooking surface

provides a safer use against possible accidents while cooking.

For a safe operation:

• Do not select high heating levels when using non-sticking cooking pots/pans coated with little amount of oil or used without oil (teflon type).
• Do not use glass cooking surface as a surface where you can place something on it or as a cutting surface.
• Do not place metal objects such as cutlery or pot lids on your hob as they may get hot.
• Never use aluminium foil for cooking. Never place food wrapped in aluminium foil on the induction zone.
• Keep magnetic objects such as credit cards or tapes away from the hob while it is operating.
• If there is an oven under your hob and it is being operated, the sensors on the hob may reduce the cooking level or turn off the hob.
• Your hob has an automatic shut-off system. Detailed information about this system is provided in the following sections. However, if you use thin based pots for your cooking, these pots shall heat up very quickly and the bottom of the pan may melt and damage the cooking surface and the appliance before the automatic shut-off system is activated.

Cooking pots/pans

You shall use ferromagnetic, quality cooking pots/pans which bear a label or warning that it is compatible for induction cooking only with your induction hob. Generally, the higher the iron content, the better the cooking pots/pans shall perform. The base diameter of the cooking pots/pans shall match the induction zone. Suggested dimensions are listed below.

Suitable pots/pans:

• Cast iron pots/pans
• Enamelled steel pots/pans
  • Steel and stainless steel pots/pans (with label or warning indicating that it is induction compatible)

Unsuitable pots/pans:

• Aluminium pots/pans
  • Copper pots/pans
• Brass pots/pans
• Glass pots/pans
• Pottery
  • Ceramic and porcelain

Recommendations:

- Use flat bottomed cooking pots/pans only. Do not use pots/pans with convex or concave bases.

- Use cooking pots/pans with thick, processed bases only. If you use thin based pots, these pots shall heat up very quickly and the bottom of the pan may melt and damage the cooking surface and the appliance before the automatic shut-off system is activated. Sharp edges may cause scratches on the surface.

- The bases of some cooking pots/pans have a smaller ferromagnetic field than its true diameter. Only this area is heated by the hob. Therefore, the heat is not evenly distributed and the cooking

performance is decreased. Moreover, such cooking pots/pans may not be detected by large induction hobs. Thus, the cooking hob shall be selected according to the size of the ferromagnetic field.

Two identical illustrations of cooking panes with handles, one showing a side view and the other showing a side view (no text or symbols)

- Some cooking pots/pans have a base that contains non-ferromagnetic materials such as aluminium. These types of cooking pots/pans may not heat adequately or may not be detected by the induction hob at all. In some cases, a bad pots/pans warning may appear.

Cooking pots/pans test

Test whether your pot is compatible with cooking with an induction hob using the methods below.

1. It is compatible if the base of your pot holds a magnet.
2. It is compatible if "☐" and "☐" or "☐" does not flash when you place your pot on the induction hob and turn on the hob.

Recommended cooking pots/pans sizes

Diameter of cooking zone - mm	Pot diameter - mm
145	min. 100 - max 145
180	min. 100 - max 180
210	min. 140 - max 210
240	min. 140 - max 240
280	min. 125 - max 280
320	min. 125 - max 320
Cooking zone with wide (flexi) surface	width 230 - length 390

The detection of cooking pots/pans by the induction hobs depend on the diameter and material of the ferromagnetic in the base of the pots/pans. To ensure detection of the cooking pots/pans and achieve an efficient cooking, the cooking pots/pans shall be selected as per the size of your hob. The cooking pots/pans sizes recommended for hob sizes are given above.

Boiling behavior may vary depending on the pot types, size of the pot and size of the cooking zone. For a more homogenous boiling behavior, a one step larger cooking zone might be used. To use a larger cooking zone does not cause wasting of energy at induction hobs, because the heat is only created in the relevant pot area.

Automatic detection of the cooking pots/pans

When you place any cooking pots/pans compatible with induction on your hob, your hob automatically detects which hob the cooking pots/pans is placed on and provides directions on the control panel.

Cooking zone with wide surface (flexi)

Your hob is equipped with hob cooking surfaces with wide surfaces (Flexi surfaces). You may operate this cooking surface as individual hobs independent from each other for your smaller cooking pots/pans. You may activate the combination function for these cooking zones and transform them to a single cooking surface for cooking operations with your large cooking pots.

As two independent cooking zones

Simple diagram with two circles and a checkmark, no text or symbols present

Cooking zones with wide surface have two cooking zones, as front and rear. You may use these zones as two independent cooking zones for different temperature levels with two different cooking pots/pans. Place the cooking pots/pans by centering the separate cooking zones.

As two independent cooking zones

Simple diagram of a device with a central circular element and two side handles, no text or symbols present.

For cooking operation with a single cooking pot/pan, place it in the centre of the front or rear cooking zone. Do not place the cooking pot/pan at the centre of the cooking zone.

As a single cooking zone

Using induction hobs safely and effectively

Operating principle: Induction heater heats the cooking pot directly due to its operating principle. Thus, it has many advantages over other hob types. It

operates more efficiently and the hob surface is cooler.

Your induction hob is equipped with superior safety system that shall ensure operation with maximum safety.

Your hob may be equipped with hobs with a diameter of 145, 180, 210 and 280 mm with induction feature depending on the model. Thanks to the induction feature, each hob zone automatically detects the pot placed on it. Energy occurs on the contact area of the pot only, and thus minimum level of power is consumed.

Automatic turning off system

The hob control has an automatic turn off system. If one or more hob zone(s) are left on, the hob zone turns off automatically after a while (See Table-1). In case of a timer assigned to the hob zone, the timer display is turned off then, too.

The time limit for automatic turn off depends on the selected temperature level. Maximum operating period is applied for this temperature level.

The hob zone may be operated by the user again after it is turned off automatically as described above.

Table-1: Automatic turning off periods

Temperature level	Automatic turning off periods - hours
0	0
1	6
2	6
3	5
4	5
5	4

Temperature level	Automatic turning off periods - hours
6	4
7	2
8	2
9	1
Quick Heating	10 minutes

While the temperature level is increased as 1,2,3...19 on some models, it may be increased as 1,1.,2,2. ... 9. on some other models. This varies as per product model.

Overheating protection

Your hob is equipped with some sensors that ensure protection against overheating. You may observe the following in case of overheating:

• The hob zone that is operating may be turned off.
• The selected level may be reduced. However, this is not reflected on the display.

Overflow protection system

Your hob is equipped with an overflow protection system. In case of any overflow on the control panel for any reason, the system cuts off the power connection automatically to turn off your hob. At this time, "F" symbol appears on the display.

Precise power setting

Induction hob responds to the commands issued immediately as per its operating principle. Its power settings are changed very rapidly. Thus, you may prevent overflowing of a meal (water, milk) that is about to overflow by turning the appliance off immediately.

6 General information about cooking

Cooling fan continues operating although the hob is turned off.

- This is not a fault. Cooling fan will continue operating until the electronics in the hob cools down to a suitable temperature.

Noise from the cooker during cooking

Some sounds may be heard from the cooker while cooking. These sounds are due to the composition of the cooking vessel. These sounds are normal, they are not a malfunction and they are a part of induction technology.

Possible noises and reasons

• Fan noise: The cooker is equipped with a fan that activates automatically according to the temperature of the appliance. The fan has various operating levels and operates at different levels as per the temperature.
• Lower buzz like the operating noise of a transformer: This is due to the nature of the induction technology. As the heat is transmitted directly to the base of the cooking vessel, such buzz sounds may be heard as per the material of the cooking vessel. Thus, different noises may be heard with different cookware.
• Cracking noise: The reason of this is the structure and material of the base of the cooking vessel. A cracking sound may be heard if the cooking vessel is made of various layers with different materials.
• Whining noise: A whining sound may be heard when two cooking zones on the same side of the cooker are used to cook with different cooking levels.
