Before Using Your New Induction Hob
- Read this guide, taking special note of the 'Safety Warnings' section.
- Remove any protective film that may still be on your induction hob.
Using the Touch Controls
- The controls respond to touch so you don't need to apply any pressure.
- Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.
- You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
- Make sure the controls are always clean, dry and that there are no objects (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin layer of water may make the controls difficult to operate.
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.
- If a specific symbol [no heating symbol] 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.
- Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
- Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat on the glass and is the same size as the cooking zone. Using a pot that is slightly wider means energy will be used at its maximum efficiency. If you use a smaller pot, efficiency could be less than expected. Pots with a diameter of less than 140 mm could be undetected by the hob if placed on the larger cooking zone.
- Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
- Always lift pans off the induction hob - do not slide as they may scratch the glass.
Cookware Suitability Visuals:
Good: Flat base, correct size. Bad: Recessed base, convex base, undersize, oversize, moisture on hotplate, no utensil.
