Introduction

This hob has been designed for the real lover of cooking. Cooking on an
induction hob has a number of advantages. It is easy, because the hob reacts
quickly and can also be set to a very low power level. Because, moreover, it can
also be set to a high power level, it can bring things to the boil very quickly.
The ample space between the cooking zones makes cooking comfortable.
The cooking zones can be controlled accurately using soft touch controls. The
position indications are intended as a reference; they enable you to select a
particular setting quickly. Cooking on an induction hob is different from cooking
on a traditional appliance. Induction cooking makes use of a magnetic field to
generate heat. This means that you cannot use just any pan on it. The pans
section gives more information about this.
For optimum safety the induction hob is equipped with several temperature
protections and a residual heat indicator, which shows which cooking zones are
still hot. This manual describes how you can make the best possible use of the
induction hob. In addition to information about operation, you will also find
background information that can assist you in using this product. You will also
find cooking tables and maintenance tips.
The safety instructions that are important during installation are included in the
chapter 'installation'.
Keep this manual carefully. It serves as reference material for the service
engineers. So stick the data card which is affixed to the glass plate on to
the back of this manual in the box provided.
When you call the service department the staff will ask for the details on the
data card. If you don't have these details, it is more difficult for us to provide
accurate service.
Enjoy your cooking!

General

Operation induction

A magnetic field is generated in the appliance. By placing a pan with an iron
base on a cooking zone, a current is induced in the pan base. This induced
current generates heat in the base of the pan.
The coil (1) in the hob (2) generates a
magnetic field (3). By placing a pan
with an iron base (4) on the coil, a
current is induced in the base of the
pan.
Easy
The electronic controls are accurate and easy to set. On the lowest setting, you
can melt chocolate directly in the pan, for example, or cook ingredients that
you would normally heat in au bain-marie.
Fast
Thanks to the induction hob's high power levels, bringing food to the boil is
very quick. Cooking food through takes just as long as for other types of
cooking.
Clean
The hob is easy to clean. Because the cooking zones do not get any hotter than
the pans themselves, food spills cannot burn on.
Safe
The heat is generated in the pan itself. The glass top does not get any warmer
than the pan. This means that the cooking zone is considerable cooler
compared to that from a Ceramic hob or a gasburner. Once a pan has been
taken away, the cooking zone cools down quickly.
