Magnet test
Use small magnet A to test if the dish bottom is magnetic. Only dishes where magnet
sticks to the bottom are suitable for induction cooking.
Dish recognition
One of great advantages of the induction hotplate is dish recognition. Even if there are no
dishes upon the hotplate, or the dish diameter is smaller than the diameter of the relevant
hotplate, there are no thermal energy losses. When the hotplate is on, the power indicator
displays letter "U". If you place the dish over that hotplate within the following 1 minute, the
hotplate recognizes the dish and turns on to the pre-set power value.
At the moment you remove the dish from the hotplate, power is suspended. If you place
smaller dish upon the hotplate and it is recognized, the hotplate will only use the amount of
energy required to heat the dish according to its size.
Hotplate may be damaged if:
• it is turned on and left empty, or an empty dish is placed on it;
• you use clay dishes which leave scratches on the ceramic glass surface;
• you fail to wipe the dish bottom dry prior placing it on the ceramic glass hotplate; heat
induction is obstructed and the hotplate may be damaged;
• you fail to use the appropriate dishes that can be magnetized: steel dishes, enamel or
steel alloy dishes; induction hotplate will not function otherwise.
Heating power of the hotplates may be set at nine different levels.
The following chart indicates illustrative use of each power setting.
Power Setting
Purpose
0
Off, using remaining heat
1-2
Maintaining warm food, slow simmer of smaller quantities
3
Slow simmer (continuation of cooking after a powerful start-up)
Slow cooking (continuation) of larger quantities, roasting larger
4-5
chunks
6
Roasting, browning
7-8
Roasting
9
Start of cooking, roasting
P
Especially powerful setting for extremely large quantities of food
• When buying cookware be careful in selecting size: pot diameter usually refers to the top
edge of the dish, which is often larger than the dish bottom.
• Steam-pressure pots (economic pots), which use pressure in tightly sealed interior, are
especially economic, and save both time and energy. Shorter cooking time leaves more
vitamins in food.
• Always leave enough water in steam-pressure pots, otherwise it may result in
overheating which may damage both the pot and the hotplate.
• Always cover the cookware with lids of appropriate size.
• Use such dish size to accommodate the quantity of food to be prepared. If you use
excessively large pot for small amount of food, you will consume considerably more
energy.
• After turning the induction hob on all displays come on for a moment. The hob is ready
for operation.
• The hob is fitted with electronic sensors which are switched on if you touch the relevant
circle for at least one second.
• Each sensor activation is followed by a sound signal.
• Avoid placing any objects on sensor surface (The hob turns off after 10 seconds).
• Always keep the sensor surface clean.
