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.

To ensure it works efficiently and safely with your home’s electrical system, this hob will automatically reduce the power levels if it detects the total power draw will exceed the set Power Limitation level.
Power levels are reduced especially when multiple cooking zones are being used at once and/or the Power Limitation setting is lower.

For example, your power limitation setting is 3.5kW `35′ and you are using 3 cooking zones. If the last zone you set will mean the total power draw of the hob will exceed 3.5kW, the other cooking zones will reduce. This is demonstrated in the table below.

COOKING GUIDELINES
Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if you’re using the Boost function. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious fire risk. > 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 > 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 flour 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.
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.
28 Instruction manual C8800i Please keep this instruction manual for future reference

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.
DETECTION OF SMALL ARTICLES
When an unsuitable size or non-magnetic pan [e.g. aluminium], or small items [e.g. knife, fork, key] has been left on the hob, the hob will automatically go on to standby in 1 minute. The fan will keep cooking down the induction hob for a further 1 minute.

HEAT SETTINGS
The settings below are guidelines only. The exact setting will depend on several factors, including your cookware and the amount you are cooking. Experiment with the induction hob to find the settings that best suit you.

HEAT SETTING 1 – 2
3 – 5 6 – 11 12 – 13 14/15 Boost

INSTALLATION

SELECTION OF INSTALLATION EQUIPMENT
Cut out the work surface according to the sizes shown in the drawing. If installing with fixing clips, a work surface of at least 30mm should be used. Please select heat-resistant work surface material to avoid larger deformation caused by the heat radiation from the hob. As shown below:

VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
To ensure adequate ventilation of your induction hob, please ensure the installation requirements shown in this diagram are followed. A 5mm gap at the front of the unit must be left, and a minimum 10mm gap must be cut out at the back of the cabinet to allow air to circulate. A minimum distance of 15mm must be left between the underside of the hob and the appliance directly below. If a drawer is installed below the hob, a minimum distance of 15mm must be left between the underside of the hob, and the contents of the drawer. Over filling the drawer may effect the airflow. If the drawer is overfilled or the ventilation requirements not followed, this will void the guarantee.

Over filling the drawer may effect the airflow. If the drawer is overfilled or the ventilation requirements not followed, this will void the guarantee.

NOTE:
T he safetydistance between the hotplate and cupboard above the hotplate should be at least 500mm. There are ventilation holes around the outside of the hob. YOU MUST ensure these holes are not blocked by the worktop when you place the hob in position. The rear wall, adjacent and surrounding surfaces must be able to withstand an temperature of 90°C.

Please keep this instruction manual for future reference Instruction manual C8800i 31

BEFORE INSTALLING THE HOB, MAKE SURE THAT: > The induction hob must be installed by qualified personnel or Caple technicians. Please never
conduct the installation yourself.
> Check the work surface is square and level, and no structural members interfere with pace requirements.
> Check 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.
> Ensure 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 3mm 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 once the hob is 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.
BEFORE LOCATING THE FIXING BRACKETS
> The unit should be placed on a stable, smooth surface [use the packaging]. Do not apply force onto the fixings protruding from the hob.

INSTALLING THE FIXING BRACKETS The hob is secured into place by 8 easy-fit brackets. Simply fix the brackets to the sides of the hob [see picture] and place the hob into worktop cut-out.
CAUTIONS: > The hob should not be installed directly above a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing machine or
clothes dryer, as the humidity may damage the hob electronics. > The induction hob must be installed by qualified personnel. Please never conduct the installation
by yourself. > The induction hob must be installed such that better heat radiation can be ensured to enhance
its reliability. AFTER INSTALLING 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 cabinets 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. > The wall and induced heating zone above the table surface must withstand heat. > To avoid any damage, the sandwich layer and adhesive must be heat resistant.
