Frequently Asked Questions - HIFS954SC HOOVER

What type of cookware is suitable for this induction hob?

Only cookware with a magnetic base is suitable. Look for the induction symbol or perform a magnet test. Suitable materials include cast iron and stainless steel with a magnetic bottom. Avoid pure aluminium, copper, glass, or ceramic.

How do I use the Boost function?

Touch the heating zone selection control, then touch the Boost control labeled 'B'. The zone will operate at maximum power (indicated by 'b') for up to 5 minutes. To cancel, touch Boost again or adjust the slider.

What is the flexible area and how do I use it?

The flexible area consists of two inductors that can be used as a single large zone (for large pots) or as two independent zones. To activate as a large zone, touch the two dedicated keys simultaneously. For separate zones, touch the keys individually.

How do I set the timer to turn off a cooking zone?

First, touch the desired zone selection control. Then touch the timer control; the display shows '0:10'. Use the slider to set the desired time (up to 9h59). Touch timer again to confirm. When time expires, the zone switches off.

What should I do if the hob displays an error code?

Note the error code (e.g., E1, F5) and switch off the hob at the mains. Refer to the troubleshooting section in the manual. Common codes: F1-F6 indicate temperature sensor failure; E1/E2 indicate abnormal supply voltage. If the problem persists, contact a qualified technician.

Can I use the hob if the glass surface is cracked?

No. Immediately switch off the hob at the mains power supply and contact a qualified technician. Do not use the hob until repaired, as it poses an electrical shock hazard.

How do I clean the hob properly?

For everyday soiling, apply a cooktop cleaner when the glass is warm (not hot), then wipe dry. For burnt-on sugar or spills, scrape with a razor blade scraper at a 30° angle while the glass is still warm. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh cleaners.

Why does the hob make a humming noise on high heat?

This is normal for induction cooking due to electromagnetic vibrations. The noise typically decreases when you lower the heat setting. If it persists or is unusually loud, check the cookware is compatible and centered.

How do I lock the controls to prevent children from using the hob?

Touch the keylock control (padlock symbol) until the timer display shows 'Loc'. To unlock, touch and hold the keylock control for a few seconds. The ON/OFF control remains functional for emergencies.

What are the minimum installation clearances?

The hob requires a minimum 50mm space around the cutout, and a safety distance of at least 760mm between the hob and any cupboard above. The work surface must be heat-resistant (minimum 30mm thickness) and the hob must be well-ventilated.

A Word on Induction Cooking

Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking technology. It works by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat directly in the pan, rather than indirectly through heating the glass surface. The glass becomes hot only because the pan eventually warms it up.

Choosing the right Cookware

- Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or on the bottom of the pan.

• You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction.

• If you do not have a magnet:

• Put some water in the pan you want to check.

• Follow the steps under 'To start cooking'.

• If does not flash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.

- Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless steel, aluminium or copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.

Cooking Guidelines

Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if you're using PowerBoost. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious fire risk.

Cooking Tips

• When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting.
• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.
• Minimise 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 flavours develop without overcooking the food. You should also cook egg-based and fourththickened 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.

Searing steak

To cook juicy flavoursome steaks:

1. Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.
2. Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
3. 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.
4. 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 – 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is – the firmer it feels the more 'well done' it will be.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and become tender before serving.

For stir-frying

1. Choose an induction compatible flat-based wok or a large frying pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be quick. If cooking large quantities, cook the food in several smaller batches.
3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooking zone to a lower setting, return the meat to the pan and add your sauce.
6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.
7. Serve immediately.

Cut out the work surface according to the sizes shown in the drawing.

For the purpose of installation and use, a minimum of 5 cm space shall be preserved around the hole.

Be sure the thickness of the work surface is at least 30mm. Please select heat-resistant work surface material to avoid larger deformation caused by the heat radiation from the hotplate. As shown below:

L(mm)	W(mm)	H(mm)	D(mm)	A(mm)	B(mm)	X(mm)
900	520	60	56	875	495	50 mini

Under any circumstances, make sure the Induction cooker hob is well ventilated and the air inlet and outlet are not blocked. Ensure the Induction cooker hob is in good work state. As shown below

Note: The safety distance between the hotplate and the cupboard above the hotplate should be at least 760mm.

Before you install the hob, make sure that

• the work surface is square and level, and no structural members interfere with space requirements
• the work surface is made of a heat-resistant material
• if the hob is installed above an oven, the oven has a built-in cooling fan
• the installation will comply with all clearance requirements and applicable standards and regulations
• a suitable isolating switch providing full disconnection from the mains power supply is incorporated in the permanent wiring, mounted and positioned to comply with the local wiring rules and regulations.

The isolating switch must be of an approved type and provide a 3 mm air gap contact separation in all poles (or in all active [phase] conductors if the local wiring rules allow for this variation of the requirements)

• the isolating switch will be easily accessible to the customer with the hob installed
• you consult local building authorities and by-laws if in doubt regarding installation
• you use heat-resistant and easy-to-clean finishes (such as ceramic tiles) for the wall surfaces surrounding the hob.

When you have installed the hob, make sure that

• the power supply cable is not accessible through cupboard doors or drawers
• there is adequate flow of fresh air from outside the cabinetry to the base of the hob
• if the hob is installed above a drawer or cupboard space, a thermal protection barrier is installed below the base of the hob.
• the isolating switch is easily accessible by the customer

Before locating the fixing brackets

The unit should be placed on a stable, smooth surface (use the packaging). Do not apply force onto the controls protruding from the hob.

Adjusting the bracket position

Fix the hob on the work surface by screw 2 brackets on the bottom of hob(see picture) after installation.

Cautions

1. The induction hotplate must be installed by qualified personnel or technicians. We have professionals at your service. Please never conduct the operation by yourself.

2. The hob will not be installed directly above a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing machine or clothes dryer, as the humidity may damage the hob

electronics

1. The induction hotplate shall be installed such that better heat radiation can be ensured to enhance its reliability.
2. The wall and induced heating zone above the table surface shall withstand heat.
3. To avoid any damage, the sandwich layer and adhesive must be resistant to heat.

Connecting the hob to the mains power supply

This hob must be connected to the mains power supply only by a suitably qualified person. Before connecting the hob to the mains power supply, check that:

1. the domestic wiring system is suitable for the power drawn by the hob.
2. the voltage corresponds to the value given in the rating plate
3. the power supply cable sections can withstand the load specified on the rating plate.
   To connect the hob to the mains power supply, do not use adapters, reducers, or branching devices, as they can cause overheating and fire.

The power supply cable must not touch any hot parts and must be positioned so that its temperature will not exceed 75^ C at any point.

Check with an electrician whether the domestic wiring system is suitable without alterations. alterations must only be made by a qualified electrician.

The power supply should be connected in compliance with the relevant standard, or a single-pole circuit breaker. the method of connection is shown below.

• If the cable is damaged or to be replaced, the operation must be carried out the by after-sale agent with dedicated tools to avoid any accidents.
• If the appliance is being connected directly to the mains an omnipolar circuit-breaker must be installed with a minimum opening of 3mm between contacts.
• The installer must ensure that the correct electrical connection has been made and that it is compliant with safety regulations.
• The cable must not be bent or compressed.
• The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by authorised technicians only.
