Introduction

This hob has been designed for the real lover of cooking. Cooking on an induction hob has a number of advantages. It is easy, because the hob reacts quickly and can also be set to a very low power level. Because, moreover, it can also be set to a high power level, it can bring dishes to the boil very quickly. The ample space between the cooking zones makes cooking comfortable.

Cooking on an induction hob is different from cooking on a traditional appliance. Induction cooking makes use of a magnetic field to generate heat. This means that you cannot use just any pan on it. The pans section gives more information about this.

For optimum safety the induction hob is equipped with several temperature protections and a residual heat indicator, which shows which cooking zones are still hot.

This manual describes how you can make the best possible use of the induction hob. In addition to information about operation, you will also find background information that can assist you in using this product. You will also find cooking tables and maintenance tips.

Read the manual thoroughly before using the appliance, and store these instructions in a safe place for future reference.

The manual also serves as reference material for service technicians. Please, therefore, stick the appliance identification card in the space provided, at the back of the manual. The appliance identification card contains all the information that the service technician will need in order to respond appropriately to your needs and questions.

Enjoy your cooking!

Before use, read the separate safety instructions first!

Temperature safety

- A sensor continuously measures the temperature of certain parts of the hob. Every cooking zone is equipped with a sensor that measures the temperature of the bottom of the pan to avoid any risk of overheating when a pan boils dry. In case of temperatures rising too high, the power is reduced automatically or the hob switches off automatically.

Cooking-time limiter

• The cooking-time limiter is a safety function of your cooking appliance. It will operate if you forget to switch off your hob.
• Depending on the setting you have chosen, the cooking time will be limited as follows:

Setting The cooking zone switches automatically off after:
1 and 2 9 hours
3, 4 and 5 5 hours
6, 7 and 8 4 hours
9 3 hours
10 2 hours
11 and 12 1 hour
Chef function 9 hours

The cooking-time limiter switches the cooking zones off if the time in the table has elapsed.

Setting The cooking zone switches automatically to setting 12 after:

boost 10 minutes

Using the touch controls

The touch controls may take some getting used to if you are used to other (rotary) controls. Place the tip of your finger flat on the control to achieve the best results. You do not have to apply any pressure.

The touch sensors only react to the light pressure of a fingertip. Do not operate the controls with any other objects. The hob will not switch on when your pet walks over it.

Induction cooking

No heat loss and cold handles with induction cooking.

Induction cooking is fast

- To start you will be surprised by the speed of induction cooking. Especially at higher settings, foods and liquids will boil very rapidly. It is best not to leave pans unattended to avoid them boiling over or boiling dry.

The power will be adjusted

- In the case of induction cooking, it is only the part of the zone on which the pan stands that is used. If you use a small pan on a large zone, the power will be adjusted to the diameter of the pan. The power will thus be lower and it will take longer before the food in the pan comes to the boil.

Attention

- Grains of sand may cause scratches which cannot be removed. Only put pans with a clean base on the cooking surface and always pick pans up to move them. - Do not use the hob as a worktop. - Always keep the lid on the pan when cooking, in order to avoid energy loss.

How does induction work

The coil (1) in the hob (2) generates a magnetic field (3). By placing a pan with an iron base (4) on the coil, a current is induced in the base of the pan.

A magnetic field is generated in the appliance. By placing a pan with an iron base on a cooking zone, a current is induced in the pan base. This induced current generates heat in the base of the pan.

Easy

The electronic controls are accurate and easy to set. On the lowest setting, you can melt chocolate directly in the pan, for example, or cook ingredients that you would normally heat in a bain-marie.

Fast

Thanks to the induction hob's high power levels, bringing food to the boil is very quick. Cooking food through takes just as long as for other types of cooking.

Clean

The hob is easy to clean. Because the cooking zones do not get any hotter than the pans themselves, food spills cannot burn on.

Safe

The heat is generated in the pan itself. The glass top does not get any warmer than the pan. This means that the cooking zone is considerable cooler compared to that from a Ceramic hob or a gasburner. Once a pan has been taken away, the cooking zone cools down quickly.

Induction noises

A ticking sound

This is caused by the capacity limiter on the front and back zones. Ticking can also occur at lower settings.

Pans are making noise

Pans can make some noise during cooking. This is caused by the energy flowing from the hob to the saucepan. At high settings this is perfectly normal for some pans. It will not damage either the pans or the hob.

The fan is making noise

To enlarge the lifespan of the electronics, the appliance is equipped with a fan. If you use the appliance intense, the fan is activated to cool down the appliance and you will hear a buzzing sound. The fan runs on for several minutes after the hob has been switched off.

Automatic power-on function

When the automatic power-on function (APD) is active, you will hear a ticking noise, even if the zone is not being used.

Pans

Pans for induction cooking

Induction cooking requires a particular quality of pan.

Attention

- Pans that have already been used for cooking on a gas hob are no longer suitable for use on an induction hob. - Only use pans that are suitable for electric and induction cooking with:

▶a thick base (minimum 2.25 mm);

a flat base.

- The best are pans with the ‘Class Induction’ quality mark.

Tip

You can check for yourself whether your pans are suitable using a magnet. A pan is suitable if the base of the pan is attracted by the magnet.

Suitable Unsuitable
Special stainless steel pans Earthenware
Class Induction Stainless steel
Hard-wearing enamelled pans Porcelain
Enamelled cast-iron pans Copper
	Plastic
	Aluminium

One is advised to use the pans recommended by ATAG for the automatic cooking programs.

Attention

Be careful with enamelled sheet-steel pans:

• the enamel may chip (the enamel comes loose from the steel), if you switch the hob on at a high setting when the pan is (too) dry;
• the base of the pan may warp - due, for example, to overheating or to the use of too high a power level.

Attention

Never use pans with a misshapen base. A hollow or rounded base can interfere with the operation of the overheating protection, so that the appliance becomes too hot. This may lead to the glass top cracking and the pan base melting. Damage arising from the use of unsuitable pans or from boiling dry is excluded from the guarantee.

Minimum pan diameter

The diameter of the bottom of the pan must be at least 12 cm. You will achieve the best results by using a pan with the same diameter as the zone. If a pan is too small the zone will not work.

The lenght of a fish-pan (oval pan), used on the vario zone, must be at least 22 cm.

Pressure cookers

Induction cooking is very suitable for cooking in pressure cookers. The cooking zone reacts very quickly, and so the pressure cooker is quickly up to pressure. As soon as you switch a cooking zone off, the cooking process stops immediately.

Switching on the hob and setting the power

The cooking zones have 12 levels. Beside it there is a level ‘boost’.

1. Place a pan in the middle of a cooking zone.
2. Press the child lock button. You will hear a single beep.

3. Press the on/off button of the cooking zone concerned.
   A flashing ‘-’ appears in the display and you will hear a single beep. If no further action is taken, the cooking zone will automatically switch off after a few seconds.

4. Press the + or - button, or the << or >> button to select the desired setting. The cooking zone starts automatically in the level that has been set (when a pan is detected).

▶ If you press the + or - button first, level 6 appears.
If you press the >> button first, level 12 + 'boost' appear in the display. This is power level 'boost' and you can use this setting if you want to bring dishes to the boil quickly (see page 14).
▶If you press the << button first, level 1 will appear.

Tips

• With the + or - button you can raise or reduce the power setting step by step. By pressing the << or >> button, you can raise or reduce the power setting quick.
• Press and hold the << , - , + or >> button to set the desired power level more quickly.

Pandetection

If the hob does not detect a (ferrous) pan after the cooking power has been set, the display will blink and the hob will remain cold. If a (ferrous) pan is not placed on the cooking zone within 1 minute, the cooking zone will automatically switch off (see also page 11 and 12 'Pans').

Residual warmth indicator

A cooking zone that has been used intensively will retain heat for several minutes after it has been switched off. An 'H' appears in the display as long as the cooking zone is hot.

Boost

You can use the 'boost' function to cook at the highest power level during a short period of time (max.10 minutes). After the maximum boost time the power will be reduced to setting 12.

Switching on 'boost'

1. Put a pan on a cooking zone.
2. Press the >> button immediately after you have switched on the zone.
   Level 12 and 'boost' appear in the display.

- If a cooking zone has already been set to a power level and you want to use 'boost', press several times the >> button or the + button of the cooking zone concerned.

Switching off 'boost'

'Boost' has been switched on, the display shows level 12 and 'boost'.

1. Press the << button or the - button. In the display you will see a lower level.

Or:

1. Press the on/off button of the cooking zone you want to switch off. You will hear a beep and the level in the display disappears. The cooking zone has been switched off completely.

Two cooking zones one in front of the other (except for HI8271MT)

- Two cooking zones one in front of the other affect each other. When both of these cooking zones are switched on at the same time, the power is automatically shared between them. The first set cooking zone will remain at the set setting at all times. The maximum set setting for the cooking zones to the front or back that is added later, depends on the setting of the first cooking zone. When you have reached the maximum amount of cooking setting combinations, the last set setting will start to flash and is automatically lowered to the highest possible setting.

- Two cooking zones alongside each other have no effect on each other. You can set both cooking zones on a high setting.

- If the vario zones are bridged, they cannot be set to boost and the menu functions cannot be used.

HI8271MT Boost management

The zones on the same phase affect each other. The division of the zones is given alongside.

• A maximum of 1 of the cooking zones connected together to 1 phase can be set to boost. The first boost set will remain.
• If all three zones on 1 phase are switched on, boost is not possible.

How to bridge the Vario induction zones

The Vario induction zones can be bridged (linked) to each other. This creates 1 large zone that can be used for example for a large fish pan or one large cooking pan.

- If the vario zones are bridged, they cannot be set to boost and the menu functions cannot be used.

Use a (fish) pan where at least one of the centre/middle positions of the vario zones is covered.

Activating the bridge mode

1. Place the large pan on both cooking zones so that these are both well covered.
2. Switch the front cooking zone on.
3. Hold two keys down at the same time (for a few seconds): first press the << button on the rear vario zone and then immediately the >> button on the front vario zone.
   ‘BR’ will appear in the display on the rear zone. Then use the front zone control to set a cooking level for both zones.
4. Set the desired cooking level using the + or - button, or the << or >> button of the front zone. Both zones are heated in the level set.

Deactivating the bridge mode

1. Press simultaneously on the >> button on the front vario zone and the << button on the very back vario zone to switch off the 'bridge' level.
   The front zone goes further on the level set in bridge function.

Or:

1. Press the on/off button of the cooking zone you want to switch off.

You will hear a beep and the level in the display disappears.

The cooking zone has been switched off completely.

Cleaning

Tip

Set the child lock before you start cleaning the hob.

Daily cleaning

• Although food spills cannot burn into the glass, we nevertheless recommend you to clean the hob immediately after use.
  • Best for daily cleaning is a damp cloth with a mild cleaning agent.
• Dry with kitchen paper or a dry teacloth.

Stubborn stains

• Stubborn stains can also be removed with a mild cleaning agent such as washing-up liquid.
• Remove water marks and lime scale with vinegar.
• Metal marks (caused by sliding pans) can be difficult to remove. Special agents are available.
• Use a glass scraper to remove food spills. Melted plastic and sugar is also best removed with a glass scraper.

Never use

• Never use abrasives. They leave scratches in which dirt and lime scale can accumulate.
  • Never use anything sharp such as steel wool or scourers.

General

If you notice a crack in the glass top (however small), switch the hob off immediately, unplug the hob, turn off the (automatic) fuse switch(es) in the meter cupboard or, in the event of a permanent connection, set the switch in the power supply lead to zero.) Contact the service department.
