HOW TO SAVE ELECTRICITY

Using electricity in a responsible manner not only saves money, but also helps protect the environment. So let's save electricity! This is how it's done:

• Use the correct cookware.
• Cookware with a flat and thick base can save up to 1/3 of electricity. Please remember to cover cookware with the lid, otherwise electricity consumption increases four times!
• Always keep the cooking zones and cookware bases clean.
• Dirt prevents proper heat transfer. Often burnt stains can be removed only with agents harmful to the environment.
• Avoid lifting the lid unnecessarily to peek into the pot.
• Do not install the hob in the immediate vicinity of a refrigerator/freezer.
• The electricity consumption is then unnecessarily increased.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Using an electrical cord, connect the hob according to the electrical diagram provided. Remove dust from the worktop, insert the hob into the opening, and press it in firmly.

Tips for the installer

The hob is equipped with a terminal block allowing different connections appropriate for a specific type of power supply.

The terminal block allows the following connections:

• Single-phase AC220-240V / 50/60Hz

The hob can be adapted to a specific type of power supply by bridging the appropriate terminals according to the wiring diagram. The wiring diagram is placed on the hob's underside. The terminal block can be accessed by removing the lid on the hob's underside. Remember to match the power cord to the type of connection and the hob's power rating.

Note: Remember to connect the protective conductor to the correctly marked terminal block clamp. The electrical system supplying the hob must be protected by a properly selected tripping device or a circuit breaker allowing to disconnect the power supply in an emergency.

Before connecting the appliance to power, please carefully read the information provided on the rating plate and wiring diagram. Connecting the hob other than shown on the wiring diagram may damage the hob.

Note: Electrical connection must be made by a properly certified qualified installer. Do not make any alterations in the appliance electrical system.

Note: The installer is obliged to provide the user with the “appliance electrical connection certificate” (enclosed with the warranty card). After installation, the installer should also provide information on the connection made:

BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR APPLIANCE

Induction hob operation principle

Under the surface glass, there are induction coils that produce a pulsing magnetic field. This magnetic field penetrates a pot placed on the hob surface causing the pot to heat up. It is important to use pots with a suitable base.

The cooking zone is powered intermittently, which is normal. The intermittent power depends on the heat setting.

Depending on the pots used and heat setting during cooking, the appliance produces a distinctive whiz. This is normal and does not constitute grounds for a complaint.

Cookware characteristics

• To check that the pot is suitable for your induction hob, make sure that a magnet strongly attracts its base. The greater the attraction force, the better the pot.
• Always use high-quality cookware with a perfectly flat base. The use of this kind of cookware prevents hot spots that may result in food sticking to the pot. Pots and pans with thick steel walls provide superior heat distribution. The concave base or deep embossed logo of the manufacturer interfere with the temperature induction control module and can cause overheating of the pot or pan.
• Do not use damaged cookware such as cookware with deformed base due to excessive heat.

- When you use large ferromagnetic base cookware, whose diameter is less than the total diameter of the cookware, only the ferromagnetic base heats up. This results in a situation where it is not possible to uniformly distribute the heat in the cookware. If the ferromagnetic area is reduced due to inclusion of aluminium parts then the effective heated area can be reduced. Problems with the detection of the cookware could arise or cookware may not be detected at all. To achieve optimum cooking results, the diameter of the ferromagnetic base should match that of the cooking zone. If cookware is not detected in a given cooking zone, it is advisable to try it in a smaller cooking zone.

The high-quality cookware is essential for efficient induction cooking.

It is not recommended to use external induction adapters.

- For induction cooking use only ferromagnetic base materials such as:

• Enamelled steel
• Cast iron
• Special stainless steel cookware designed for induction cooking.
• Lid prevents heat from escaping and thus reduces heating time and lowers energy consumption.
• Make sure that cookware base is dry. When filling a pot or when using a pot taken out of the refrigerator make sure its base is completely dry before placing it on the cooking zone. This is to avoid soiling the surface of the hob.

Kitchen cookware marking

Check for marking indicating that the cookware is suitable for induction cooking.

Residual heat indicator "H"

When you have finished cooking, the induction hob glass within the cooking zone is still hot, this is called residual heat.

If the glass surface is hot, the "H" is shown on the cooking zone display.

When residual heat indicator is on, do not touch the cooking zone as there is a risk of burns and do not place on it any items sensitive to heat!

The "H" residual heat indicator is not displayed during a power outage. However, cooking zones may still be hot!

Before using the appliance for the first time

• Thoroughly clean the induction hob. The hob has a glass surface, therefore handle it with care.
• Odours may be released when you first start your appliance. If this happens, turn on exhaust hood or open the window in the room. Emission of odour is temporary.

If the appliance does not detect the cookware on the operating cooking zone

If there is no cookware on the active cooking zone or the cookware is unsuitable, the symbol indicated on the side will be shown on the display. If you do not place a suitable cookware on the cooking zone, it will turn off after 1 minute. If no other cooking zones are used, your induction hob will be in standby mode for another minute, and then turn off completely.

Cookware size

In order to achieve best cooking results, use cookware with bottoms (ferromagnetic part) of the size corresponding to the size of the cooking zone.

Using cookware with the bottom diameter smaller than the cooking zone size will reduce the effectiveness of the cooking zone and increase cooking time.

Cookware detection sensitivity of a cooking zone is affected by the diameter of ferromagnetic component embedded in the cookware base and its material.
