• Specifications -51 English IH Cooking Mechanism IH (Induction Heating) refers to electromagnetic induction heating. When electricity flows in the magnetic coils underneath the top plate, magnetic lines of force are produced. The magnetic lines of force pass through metallic cookware when an eddy current is induced. The heat that is generated by the electrical resistance of the cookware is used for heating. Eddy current Top plate Magnetic force generating coil Magnetic lines of force EN- 1 Operating Instructions Safety Instructions ■■ This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

EN- 8 Genius Sensor Technology Genius Sensor regulates the set temperature by quickly detecting the temperature on the base of the cookware. This is suitable for the following cooking modes: Genius Sensor p. 50

(Left cooking zone) Autoboil Mode Low Temperature Cooking Mode Pan Frying Mode Deep/Shallow Frying Mode (Middle and Right cooking zones) ■■ Pan Frying Mode ■■ Deep/Shallow Frying Mode CAUTION Do not use oil preheated by other appliances. Genius Sensor will not work efficiently and the oil could ignite. Energy Saving Tips ■■ Use the correct size of pan for the amount of food you are cooking. ■■ Use the right size of pan for the diameter of the cooking zone. If the diameter of the pan is not the same as the cooking zone it is preferable to use a pan with a base that is larger in diameter than the cooking zone. ■■ Turn down the power level of the cooking zone once the cooking temperature is reached; simmer food rather than boiling it. English ■■ Always place the correct lids on pans to keep the heat in. ■■ Use a steamer to cook vegetables, that way you can layer a number of vegetables on top of each other and still use one cooking zone. Alternatively, a pan with a divider can be used. ■■ Put just enough water in the pan to cover vegetables. This will save energy.

Cooking Zones 21 cm 300 mm 200 mm 21 cm 21 cm Cooking zone groups The cooking zones are grouped into three, e.g. front and rear on the left and front and rear on the right. When the two cooking zones within the same group are used simultaneously, the heating power is regulated so that the overall power consumption does not exceed the limit. e.g. When Power Level 9 is selected for left front cooking zone, the maximum power available for left rear cooking zone is power level 8. Middle cooking zone group Right cooking zone group English Left cooking zone group NOTE When the overall power consumption has been set to 7200 W under “Power Management”, the heating power are regulated as follows. - Very large cookware may affect the maximum power level. - When using two or more cooking zones within the same group, only “Heating Mode” can be used. EN- 13 Cooking Zones Flex Cooking Zone The flex cooking zone consists of several independently-controlled inductors. When cookware is detected, only sections that are in contact with the cookware will be activated, all others will remain switched off. To ensure that the cookware is detected and heat is distributed evenly, centre the cookware as shown below: Pans with a diameter less than 13 cm (Heating Mode only, not for Genius Sensor cooking modes) For smaller pans, place the cookware in one of the four positions shown. Pans with a diameter of 13 cm or more For larger pans, place the cookware in one of the three positions shown. Larger cookware Place it at the top or bottom edge of the flex cooking zone. Two independent cooking zones The front and rear areas of a flex cooking zone can be used independently of each other by selecting the necessary power for each one. Do not place the cookware over multiple flex cooking zones. Do not place the cookware in an off-centre position. The sensor may not function properly and could cause a fire. WARNING Failure to follow these instructions may cause serious injury.

EN- 31 Troubleshooting Sounds and Noises Symptom Possible cause Noise is heard during heating. Various sounds may be heard depending on the type of cookware. You may feel a small vibration when you hold the handle and the cookware may move slightly. This is not a malfunction. Moving the cookware slightly or replacing it may eliminate the sound. If the cookware is removed during heating, a short metallic sound may be heard. EN- 32 The level of the noise from the appliance increases and decreases. It is the sound of the cooling fan inside the appliance. The level of noise changes according to the power level and the material of the cookware. When the power level is increased, the fan will operate at high speed and generate more noise. After the main power switch is turned off, sound from the fan can still be heard. While the inside of the appliance is still hot, the cooling fan operates. When the appliance cools down, it will automatically stop. Clicking noise is heard at the start of flex cooking operation. This is not a malfunction. This is a part of induction heating technology. The noise is eliminated during operation. Troubleshooting Heat Power Symptom Possible cause The heating power is weaker. Overheating Prevention Function If the base of the cookware overheats, the heating power will automatically reduce. The power indication will remain the same. The power returns to normal after the cookware cools down. Unsuitable cookware, e.g. ceramic and earthenware pans, are used. Do not use ceramic and earthenware pans even if they are for induction heating as they are not efficient. (See page 15) When multiple cooking zones are used together, ■ The heating power decreases. ■ The power indicator automatically decreases. ■ The power level can not be increased. The power level is automatically regulated so that overall power consumption does not exceed the limit. (See page 13) The power indicator for a cooking zone may decrease on its own. Even after touching the slider to adjust power level, it may not increase the power level and the appliance will beep.

Improper installation may cause an electric leakage or fire. ■■ Install 220-240 V dedicated single-phase (or three-phase at 380-415 V 3N) circuit with the earth leakage circuit breaker for the power supply. The electrical wiring may abnormally overheat if the dedicated circuit is not properly connected. EN- 38 Safety Instructions ■■ Electrical work must be performed by a legally qualified electrician. Improper wire connections may cause electric leakages or fires. ■■ This appliance must be properly earthed following the electric laws. Earth line must not be connected to gas pipe, water pipe, earth of a lightning rod or telephone. Otherwise, it may cause electric shock in case of appliance breakdown or insulation breakdown. ■■ Have a qualified electrician earth the appliance. Improper earthing may cause an electric shock. ■■ Before performing the installation, turn off the circuit breaker. This can prevent electric shock. English ■■ If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a service technician authorised by the appliance manufacturer in order to avoid a hazard. ■■ Do not disassemble, repair or modify the appliance (e.g. the top plate). Doing so may cause the appliance to operate abnormally and may be dangerous. EN- 39 Safety Instructions ■■ Do not step on the appliance, or drop heavy items on top of it. Cracks in the top plate may cause overheating, malfunctions or electric shocks. ■■ Do not touch high temperature parts, such as the top plate after use. ■■ The power cord must be accurately connected to ensure the integrity of the connection. Improper wire connections may cause electric leakages or fires. ■■ Use heat resistant materials for the countertop. However, do not use varnished materials as they may become discoloured. The material of the countertop should have heat resistance equal to or exceeding that of laminated thermosetting high-pressure decorative sheets. If the materials are not heat resistant, they may get deformed or cause a fire. ■■ WARNING: The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage to persons or items caused by failure to observe the safety instructions, by interference with any part of the appliance or by the use of non-original spare parts.
