Frequently Asked Questions - HI624TCT CANDY

How do I unlock the controls if they are locked?

Ensure the hob is turned on. Touch and hold the keylock control for a few seconds until the indicator turns off. The controls will be unlocked.

Why does the display show 'U' and the hob not heat?

This indicates no pan is detected or the pan is unsuitable. Ensure you are using a magnetic pan (check with a magnet) and place it centered on the zone. The pan must have a minimum diameter of 120 mm for the smaller zones.

Can I use the timer to turn off a zone automatically?

Yes. Select the zone, press the timer control, set the time using '+' or '-', and the zone will switch off when the countdown ends. The remaining time is shown on the display.

What is the Boost function and how long does it last?

Boost provides maximum power for fast heating. It lasts for 5 minutes then automatically returns to power level 9. To activate, select a zone and press the Boost button.

Why does the hob make a humming noise?

A humming noise is normal when using high heat settings, caused by the induction technology. It usually quiets down when reducing the power level. The cooling fan may also make noise.

What does the error code 'E3' mean?

E3 indicates the induction coil temperature sensor is too hot. This is a protection feature. Let the hob cool down; if repeated, contact a qualified technician.

How do I adjust the total power limit of the hob?

With the hob off, press and hold the Pause button for 5 seconds, then press '+' and '-' together for 3 seconds. Use '+' and '-' to cycle through power levels (2.5 to 7.4 kW). Press Pause for 5 seconds to confirm.

Can I use cookware made of glass or aluminum?

No. Induction cooking requires magnetic cookware such as iron or stainless steel with a magnetic base. Glass, aluminum, copper, ceramic, and earthenware are not suitable unless they have a magnetic layer.

The glass surface is cracked. What should I do?

If the glass is cracked, immediately switch off the hob at the mains and do not use it. Contact a qualified technician for replacement. Electric shock hazard exists.

How do I clean the hob without damaging it?

First, switch off the power and let the surface cool. For everyday soiling, apply a cooktop cleaner with a soft cloth. For burnt spills, use a razor blade scraper held at 30° angle. Never use abrasive scourers.

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 is hot only because the pan eventually warms it up.

Iron pot Magnetic circuit Ceramic glass plate Induction coil Induced currents

Before using your New Induction Hob

- Read this guide, taking special note of the marriage 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 utensil or 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. If it 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, aluminum, 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 cooking zone, 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 that is slightly wider will give maximum efficiency. If you use a smaller pot, efficiency could be less than expected. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.

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

Pan dimensions

The cooking zones are up to a limit, automatically adapted to the diameter of the pan. However, the bottom of this pan must have a minimum diameter corresponding to the cooking zone. To obtain the best efficiency of your hob,

please place the pan in the centre of the cooking zone.

The base diameter of induction cookware

Cooking zone	Minimum (mm)
1, 2 , 3, 4 (180mn	120

The above may vary according to the quality of the pan used.

The power supply cable must not touch any hot parts and must be positioned so that the temperature will not exceed 75°C at any point.

Check with an electrician whether the domestic wiring system is suitable without alterations.

Any alterations must only be made by a qualified electrician.

The power supply should be connected in compliance with the relevant standards or a single-pole circuit breaker. The method of connection is shown below.

• If the cable is damaged or to be replaced, the operation must be carried out by an after-sales agent with dedicated tools to avoid any accidents.
• If the appliance is being connected directly to the mains, an omnipolar circuit-breaker must be installed with a minimum opening of 3mm between contacts.
• The installer must ensure that the correct electrical connection has been made and that it is compliant with safety regulations.
• The cable must not be bent or compressed.
• The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by authorized technicians only.

This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/E regarding electric and electronic appliances (WEEE). The WEEE contain both polluting substances (that can have a negative effect on the environment) and base elements (that can be reused). It is important that the WEEE undergo specific treatments to correctly remove and dispose of the pollutants and recover all the materials. Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that the WEEE do not become an environmental problem; it is essential to follow a few basic rules:

- The WEEE should not be treated as domestic waste;

- The WEEE should be taken to dedicated collection areas managed by the town council or a registered company.

In many countries, domestic collections may be available for large WEEEs. When you buy a new appliance, the old one can be returned to the vendor who must accept it free of charge on a one-for-one basis, as long as the appliance is of an equivalent type and has the same functions as the purchased appliance.
