GETTING STARTED Choosing the right Cookware Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base. Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits at against the glass, and is the same size as the cooking zone. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone. Always lift pans off the ceramic hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass. Using the Touch Controls

• Use the ball of your nger, 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 object ( e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin lm of water may make the controls difcult to operate.32

You can use the timer in two different ways:

• You can use it as a minute minder. In this case, the timer will not turn any cooking zone off when the set time is up.

• You can set it to turn one cooking zone off or more than one after the set time is up.

Setting the timer to turn more than one cooking zone off 1 If more than one heating zone use this function, the timer indicator will show the shortest time. (e.g. zone 2# setting time of 3 minutes, zone 3# setting time of 6 minutes, the timer indicator shows [3].) NOTE: The ashing red dot next to power level indicator means the timer indicator is showing time of the heating zone. If you want to check the set time of other heating zone, touch the heating zone selection control. The timer will indicate its set time. 2 When cooking timer expires, the correspondin cooking zone will be switch off automatically and show [H] . NOTE: If you want to change the time after the timer is set, you have to start from step 1 COOKING GUIDELINES

• When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting.

• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.

• Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.

• Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has heated through. Simmering, cooking rice

• Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85°C, when bubbles are just rising occasionally to the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because the avors develop without overcooking the food. You should also cook egg-based and our thickened sauces below boiling point.

• Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a setting higher than the lowest setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in the time recommended.37

• Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.

• Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.

• Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot pan and then lower the meat onto the hot pan.

• Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of the steak and how cooked you want it. Times may vary from about 2 to 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is – the rmer it feels the more ‘well done’ it will be.

• Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and become tender before serving. HEAT SETTINGS Power level Suitability 1-2

• delicate warming for small amounts of food

• melting chocolate, butter, and foods that burn quickly

• cooking rice 5-6 • pancakes 7-8

• stir-frying and searing

• bringing soup to the boil

TROUBLESHOOTING What? How? Important! Everyday soiling on glass (ngerprints, marks, stains left by food or non-sugary spillovers on the glass) 1 Switch the power to the cooktop off. 2 Apply a cooktop cleaner while the glass is still warm (but not hot!) 3 Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper towel. 4 Switch the power to the cooktop back on.

• When the power to the cooktop is switched off, there will be no ‘hot surface’ indication but the cooking zone may still be hot! Take extreme care.

• Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon scourers and harsh/abrasive cleaning agents may scratch the glass. Always read the label to check if your cleaner or scourer is suitable.

• Never leave cleaning residue on the cooktop: the glass may become stained. Boilovers, melts, and hot sugary spills on the glass Remove these immediately with a sh slice, palette knife or razor blade scraper suitable for ceramic glass cooktops, but beware of hot cooking zone surfaces: 1 Switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall. 2 Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° angle and scrape the soiling or spill to a cool area of the cooktop. 3 Clean the soiling or spill up with a dish cloth or paper towel. 4 Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday soiling on glass’ above.

• Remove stains left by melts and sugary food or spillovers as soon as possible. If left to cool on the glass, they may be difcult to remove or even permanently damage the glass surface.

• Cut hazard: when the safety cover is retracted, the blade in a scraper is razor-sharp. Use with extreme care and always store safely and out of reach of children.39

What? How? Important! Spillovers on the touch controls. 1 Switch the power to the cooktop off. 2 Soak up the spill 3 Wipe the touch control area with a clean damp sponge or cloth. 4 Wipe the area completely dry with a paper towel. 5 Switch the power to the cooktop back on. The cooktop may beep and turn itself off, and the touch controls may not function while there is liquid on them. Make sure you wipe the touch control area dry before turning the cooktop back on. The cooktop cannot Be turned on. No power. Make sure the cooktop is connected to the power supply and that it is switched on. Check whether there is a power outage in your home or area. If you’ve checked everything and the problem persists, call a qualied technician. The touch controls are unresponsive. The controls are locked. Unlock the controls. See section ‘Using your ceramic cooktop’ for instructions. The touch controls are difcult to operate. There may be a slight lm of water over the controls or you may be using the tip of your nger when touching the controls. Make sure the touch control area is dry and use the ball of your nger when touching the controls. The glass is being scratched. Rough-edged cookware. Unsuitable, abrasive scourer or cleaning products being used. Use cookware with at and smooth bases. See ‘Choosing the right cookware’. See ‘Care and cleaning’. Some pans make crackling or clicking noises. This may be caused by the construction of your cookware (layers of different metals vibrating differently). This is normal for cookware and does not indicate a fault.40
