4 Preparation

Tips for saving energy

The following information will help you to use your appliance in an ecological way, and to save energy:

* Defrost frozen dishes before cooking them.
* Use pots/pans with cover for cooking. If there is no cover, energy consumption may increase 4 times.
* Select the cooking zone which is suitable for the bottom size of the pot to be used. Always select the correct pot size for your dishes. Larger pots require more energy.
* Use flat bottom pots when cooking with electric hobs.
* Pots with thick bottom will provide a better heat conduction. You can obtain energy savings up to 1/3.
- Vessels and pots must be compatible with the cooking zones. Bottom of the vessels or pots must not be smaller than the hotplate.
* Keep the cooking zones and bottom of the pots clean. Dirt will decrease the

heat conduction between the cooking zone and bottom of the pot.

Initial use

First cleaning of the appliance

The surface might get damaged by some detergents or cleaning materials. Do not use aggressive detergents, cleaning powders/creams or any sharp objects during cleaning. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

1. Remove all packaging materials.
2. Wipe the surfaces of the appliance with a damp cloth or sponge and dry with a cloth.

Initial heating

Smoke and smell may emit for a couple of hours during the initial operation. This is quite normal. Ensure that the room is well ventilated to remove the smoke and smell. Avoid directly inhaling the smoke and the smell that emits.

5 How to use the hob

General information about cooking

Never fill the pan with oil more than one third of it. Do not leave the hob unattended when heating oil. Overheated oils bring risk of fire.

Never attempt to extinguish a possible fire with water!

When oil catches fire, cover it with a fire blanket or damp cloth. Turn off the hob if it is safe to do so and call the fire department.

Before frying foods, always dry them well and gently place into the hot oil. Ensure complete thawing of frozen foods before frying.
* Do not cover the vessel you use when heating oil.
- Place the pans and saucepans in a manner so that their handles are not over the hob to prevent heating of the handles. Do not place unbalanced and easily tilting vessels on the hob.
Do not place empty vessels and saucepans on cooking zones that are switched on. They might get damaged.
- Operating a cooking zone without a vessel or saucepan on it will cause damage to the product. Turn off the cooking zones after the cooking is complete.
As the surface of the product can be hot, do not put plastic and aluminum vessels on it.
* Clean any melted such materials on the surface immediately.
* Such vessels should not be used to keep foods either.
- Use flat bottomed saucepans or vessels only.
- Put appropriate amount of food in saucepans and pans. Thus, you will not have to make any unnecessary cleaning

by preventing the dishes from overflowing.

* Do not put covers of saucepans or pans on cooking zones.
- Place the saucepans in a manner so that they are centered on the cooking zone. When you want to move the saucepan onto another cooking zone, lift and place it onto the cooking zone you want instead of sliding it.

Saucepan selection

* Glass ceramic surface is heatproof and is not affected by big temperature differences.
Do not use the glass ceramic surface as a place of storage or as a cutting board.
* Use only the saucepans and pans with machined bottoms. Sharp edges create scratches on the surface.

Simple line drawing of a fire with smoke rising above a structure and crossed out by a black X (no text or symbols)

Spills may damage the glass ceramic surface and cause fire.

Do not use vessels with concave or convex bottoms.

Use only the saucepans and pans with flat bottoms. They ensure easier heat transfer.

For induction hobs, use only vessels suitable for induction cooking.

Saucepan test

Use following methods to test whether your saucepan is compatible with the induction hob or not.

1. Your saucepan is compatible if its bottom holds a magnet.
2. Your saucepan is compatible if "L" symbol does not flash when you place your saucepan on a cooking zone.

Only ferromagnetic pans can be used for induction cooking

Ferromagnetic materials include:

• Enameled steel
  Cast iron
• Stainless steel designed for induction cooking

Non-ferromagnetic materials include:

These types of pans will not work with induction cooking.

Stainless steel

Glass

Ceramic

* Copper or aluminum pans

Some saucepans have a smaller ferromagnetic area than the real diameter of the saucepans. Only this area will be heated up by the induction zone, therefore the cooking performance may be reduced. These pan types cannot be detected by bigger induction zones. The diameter of pan's ferromagnetic area should match the size of the cooking zone. If the pan is not detected by the cooking zone, try it on the next smaller cooking zone.

Some vessels have a base which includes non-ferromagnetic materials such as aluminum. These types of vessels cannot be detected by the induction zone.

You can use steel, teflon or aluminium saucepans with special magnetic bottom that contains labels or warnings indicating that the saucepan is compatible with induction cooking. Glass and ceramic vessels, pots and the stainless steel vessels with non-magnetic aluminium bottom should not be used.

Saucepan recognition-focusing system

In induction cooking, only the area covered by the vessel on the relevant cooking zone is energised. The vessel's bottom is recognised by the system and only this area is heated automatically. Cooking stops if the cooking vessel is lifted from the cooking zone during cooking. Selected cooking zone and "L" symbol flashes alternately.

Safe use

Do not select high heating levels when you will use a non-sticking (teflon) saucepan with no oil or with very little oil.

Do not put metal items such as forks, knives or saucepan covers onto your hob since they can get heated.

Never use aluminium foil for cooking. Never place food items wrapped with aluminium foil onto the cooking zone.

If there is an oven under your hob and if it is running, sensors of the hob can decrease the cooking level or turn off the oven. When the hob is running, keep items with magnetic properties such as credit cards or cassettes away from the hob.

Using induction cooking zones safely and efficiently

Operating principles: Induction hob heats directly the cooking vessel as a feature of its operating principles. Therefore, it has various advantages when compared to other hob types. It operates more efficiently and the hob surface does not heat up.

Induction hob is equipped with superior safety systems that will provide you maximum usage safety.

Your hob can be equipped with induction cooking zones with a diameter of 145, 180, 210 and 280 mm depending on the model. With induction feature, each cooking zone detects the diameter of each vessel placed on them. Energy builds up only where the vessel contacts with the cooking zone and thus, minimum energy consumption is achieved.

Operation time constraints

The hob control is equipped with an operation time limit. When one or more cooking zones are left on, the cooking zone will automatically be deactivated after a certain period of time (see Table-1). If there is a timer assigned to the cooking zone, the timer display will also turn off later.

Operation time limit depends on the selected temperature level. Maximum operation time is applied at this temperature level.

The cooking zone may be restarted by the user after it is turned off automatically as described above.

Overheating protection

Your hob is equipped with some sensors ensuring protection against overheating. Following may be observed in case of overheating:

* Active cooking zone may be turned off.
* Selected level may drop. However, this condition cannot be seen on the indicator.

Overflow safety system

Your hob is equipped with overflow safety system. If there is any overflow that spills onto the control panel, system will cut the power connection immediately and turn off your hob. "E" warning appears on display during this period.

Precise power setting

Induction hob reacts the commands immediately as a feature of its operating principles. It changes the power settings very fast. Thus, you can prevent a meal (water, milk) from overflowing even if it was just about to overflow.

Operating noisy

Some noises may arise from the induction hob. These sounds are normal and a part of induction cooking.

* Noise becomes prominent in high temperature levels.
* Alloy of the saucepan can cause noise.
* In low levels, a regular on/off sound can be heard because of the operating principles.
* Noise can be heard if an empty saucepan is heated. When you put water or meal in it, this sound will clear away.
The noise of the fan that cools electric system can be heard.

General information

Service life of the product will extend and the possibility of problems will decrease if the product is cleaned at regular intervals.

DANGER:

Disconnect the product from mains supply before starting maintenance and cleaning works. There is the risk of electric shock!

DANGER:

Allow the product to cool down before you clean it. Hot surfaces may cause burns!

• Clean the product thoroughly after each use. In this way it will be possible to remove cooking residues more easily, thus avoiding these from burning the next time the appliance is used.
  * No special cleaning agents are required for cleaning the product. Use warm water with washing liquid, a soft cloth or sponge to clean the product and wipe it with a dry cloth.
  * Always ensure any excess liquid is thoroughly wiped off after cleaning and any spillage is immediately wiped dry.
  Do not use cleaning agents that contain acid or chloride to clean the stainless or inox surfaces. Use a soft cloth with a liquid detergent (not abrasive) to wipe those parts clean, paying attention to sweep in one direction.

The surface might get damaged by some detergents or cleaning materials. Do not use aggressive detergents, cleaning powders/creams or any sharp objects during cleaning. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

Do not use steam cleaners to clean the appliance as this may cause an electric shock.

Cleaning the hob

Glass ceramic surfaces

Wipe the glass ceramic surface using a piece of cloth dampened with cold water in a manner as not to leave any cleaning agent on it. Dry with a soft and dry cloth. Residues may cause damage on the glass ceramic surface when using the hob for the next time. Dried residues on the glass ceramic surface should under no circumstances be scraped with hook blades, steel wool or similar tools. Remove calcium stains (yellow stains) by a small amount of lime remover such as vinegar or lemon juice. You can also use suitable commercially available products. If the surface is heavily soiled, apply the cleaning agent on a sponge and wait until it is absorbed well. Then, clean the surface of the hob with a damp cloth.

Sugar-based foods such as thick cream and syrup must be cleaned promptly without waiting the surface to cool down. Otherwise, glass ceramic surface may be damaged permanently.

Slight color fading may occur on coatings or other surfaces in time. This will not affect operation of the product.

Color fading and stains on the glass ceramic surface is a normal condition, and not a defect.
