Induction heating

A. Induction coil
B. Induced currents
C. Electronic circuits

• The Principle of Induction Heating: When you place your cookware on a cooking zone and you turn it on, the electronic circuits in your induction hob produce "induced currents" in the bottom of the cookware which instantly raise cookware's temperature.
• Greater speed in cooking and frying: As the pan is heated directly and not the glass, the efficiency is greater than in other systems because no heat is lost. Most of the energy absorbed is transformed into heat.

Safety shutoff

If one of the cooking zones is not switched off or the power level is not adjusted after an extended period of time, that particular cooking zone will automatically switch itself off.

The cooking zones switch themselves off at the following times.

Power level	Switch off
1-3	After 6 hours
4-6	After 5 hours
7-9	After 4 hours
10-15	After 1.5 hours

NOTE

If the Hob is overheated because of abnormal operation, [H] will be displayed. And the Hob will be switched off.

NOTE

If cookware is unsuitable, too small, or no cookware has been placed on the cooking zone, will be displayed. And after 1 minute the corresponding cooking zone will be switched off.

NOTE

Should one or more of the cooking zones switch off before the indicated time has elapsed, see the "Troubleshooting".

Other reasons why a cooking zone will switch itself off

All cooking zones will switch themselves off if liquid boils over on the control panel.

The automatic shutoff will also be activated if you place a damp cloth on the control panel. In both of these instances, the appliance will need to be switched on again using the On/Off ① key after the liquid or the cloth has been removed.

Residual heat indicator

When an individual cooking zone or the hob is turned off, the presence of residual heat is shown with an H (for "hot") in the corresponding cooking zone display. Even after the cooking zone has been switched off, the residual heat indicator goes out only after the cooking zone has cooled. You can use the residual heat for thawing or keeping food warm.

WARNING

As long as the residual heat indicator is illuminated, there is a risk of burns.

WARNING

If the power supply is interrupted, the H h symbol will go out and information about residual heat will no longer be available. However, it may still be possible to burn yourself. This can be avoided by always taking care when near the hob.

Temperature detection

If for any reason the temperatures on any of the cooking zones were to exceed the safety levels, the cooking zone will automatically reduce to a lower power level. When you have finished using the hob, the cooling fan will continue to run until the hob's electronics has cooled down. And the cooling fan switches itself off depending upon the temperature of the electronics.

Cookware

Use flat-bottomed cookware that completely contacts the entire cooking zone. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware. Be sure to follow all the recommendations for using cookware.

• Use cookware made with the correct material for induction cooking.
• Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution. This gives best cooking results.
• Match the cookware size to the quantity of food being prepared.
• Do not let cookware boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marring that can affect the ceramic hob. (This type of damage is not covered by your warranty).
• Do not use dirty cookware or cookware with heavy grease buildup. Always use cookware that is easy to clean after cooking.

CAUTION

• The cooking zones may appear cooled down after they have been turned off. However, the glass surface may be hot from residual heat transferred from the cookware. The risk of burns is still present.
• Do not touch hot cookware directly with your hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to protect your hands from burns.
• Do not slide cookware across the hob surface. Doing so may permanently damage the hob.

Cookware for induction cooking zones

The Induction burner can only be turned on when cookware with a magnetic base is placed on one of the cooking zones. You can use the cookware identified as suitable below.

Material	Suitability
Steel, enameled steel, cast iron	Yes
Stainless steel	Yes (If magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware)
Aluminum, copper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain	No

NOTE

• Cookware appropriate for induction cooking is labelled as suitable by the manufacturer.
  Certain cookware can make noises when being used on induction cooking zones.
  These noises do not indicate that the hob is malfunctioning and do not affect its operation in any way.
• Special stainless-steel cookware may not be suitable for induction cooking. Check if the base of the cookware is attracted by a magnet.

Cookware sizes for induction cooking zones

Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the bottom size of the cookware up to a certain limit. However, the magnetic part of the bottom of the cookware must have a minimum diameter depending upon the size of the cooking zone. For best results, use cookware whose ferromagnetic diameter match that of a burner. If the cookware is not sensed by the burner, try a smaller sized burner.

NOTE

For Cookware diameter, please refer to the model's Cooking zones specifications.

Other induction cookware

Some cookware has thin magnetic material on the bottom to work with an induction heating hob. These cookware has weak magnetism and may not work well. (Weak magnetism means a magnet does not stick firmly or the area where the magnet sticks is small.)

A. Area where magnet does not stick
B. Area where magnet sticks

Even though cookware are designed for an induction hob, the heating performance could be weak or sometimes the hob may not detect the cookware depending on the size and strength of the magnetic area on the bottom of the cookware.

When using large cookware with a smaller ferromagnetic element, only the ferromagnetic element heats up. Consequently, heat might not be uniformly distributed.

Suitability test

Cookware is suitable for induction cooking if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware and the cookware is labelled as suitable by the cookware manufacturer.

• You can recognise good cookware by their bases. The base is supposed to be as thick and flat as possible.
• When buying new cookware, pay special attention to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim.
• Do not use cookware which have damaged bases with rough edges or burrs. Damaged cookware can scratch the ceramic hob permanently if you slide them across the surface.
• When cold, cookware bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave). They must not be bent outwards (convex).
  If you want to use a special type of cookware, for example, a pressure cooker, a simmering pan, or a wok, please follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Correct positioning

Correct	Incorrect
Flat-bottomed cookware and straight sides	Cookware with curved or warped bottoms or sides
The cookware meets or exceeds the recommended minimum size for the cooking zone.	The cookware does not meet the minimum size required for the current cooking zone.
The cookware rests completely on the hob surface.	The cookware rests on the hob trim or does not rest completely on the hob surface.
The cookware is properly balanced.	The heavy handle causes the cookware to tilt.

WARNING

Cleaning agents must not come into contact with a heated ceramic glass surface: All cleaning agents must be removed with adequate amounts of clean water after cleaning because they can have a caustic effect when the surface becomes hot. Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as grill or oven sprays, scouring pads or abrasive pan cleaners.

NOTE

Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use when it is still warm to the touch. This will prevent spillage from becoming burnt onto the surface. Remove scales, watermarks, fat drippings and metallic discolouration with the use of a commercially available ceramic glass or stainless steel cleaner.

Light soiling

1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth.
2. Rub dry with a clean cloth. Remnants of cleaning agent must not be left on the surface.
3. Thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass cooking surface once a week with a commercially available ceramic glass or stainless steel cleaner.
4. Wipe the ceramic glass surface using adequate amounts of clean water and rub dry with a clean lint - free cloth.

Maintaining your appliance

Stubborn soiling

1. To remove food that has boiled over and stubborn splashes, use a glass scraper.
2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the ceramic glass surface.
3. Remove soiling by scraping with the blade.

NOTE

Glass scrapers and ceramic glass cleaners are available from specialty retailers.

Problem dirt

1. Remove burnt-on sugar, melted plastic, aluminium foil or other materials with a glass scraper immediately and while still hot.

WARNING

There is a risk of burning yourself when the glass scraper is used on a hot cooking zone:
2. Clean the hob as normal when it has cooled down. If the cooking zone on which something has melted has been allowed to cool, warm it up again for cleaning.
