Make sure the induction cooker hob is well ventilated and that air inlet and outlet are not blocked. In order to avoid accidental touch with the overheating bottom of the hob, or getting un-expectable electric shock during working, it is necessary to put a wooden insert, fixed by screws, at a minimum distance of 50mm from the bottom of the hob. Follow the requirements below:

PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (3)

There are ventilation holes around outside of the hob. YOU MUST ensure these holes are not blocked by the worktop when you put the hob into position.
Be aware that the glue that join the plastic or wooden material to the furniture, has to resist to temperature not below 150℃, to avoid the unstuck of the paneling.

The rear wall, adjacent and surrounding surfaces must therefore be able to withstand an temperature of 90℃.

  1. The induction hotplate must be installed by qualified personnel or technicians. We have professionals at your service. Please never conduct the operation by yourself.
  2. The hob will not be installed directly above a dishwasher, fridge, freezer washing machine or clothes dryer, as the humidity may damage the hob electronics.
  3. The induction hotplate shall be installed such that better heat radiation can be ensured to enhance its reliability.
  4. The wall and induced heating zone above the table surface shall withstand heat.
  5. To avoid any damage, the sandwich layer and adhesive must be resistant to heat.
  6. A steam cleaner is not to be used.

Connecting the hob to the mains power supply
This hob must be connected to the mains power supply only by a suitably qualified person
Before connecting the hob to the mains power supply, check that:

  1. The domestic wiring system is suitable for the power draw by the hob.
  2. The voltage corresponds to the value given in the rating plate.
  3. The power supply cable sections can withstand the load specified on the rating plate. To connect the hob to the mains power supply, do not use adapters, reducers, or branching devices, as they can cause overheating and fire. The power supply cable must not touch any hot parts and must be positioned so that its temperature will not exceed 75℃ at any point.

Check with an electrician whether the domestic wiring system is suitable without alterations.
Any alterations must only be made by a qualified electrician.

PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (4)

  • If the cable is damaged or to be replaced, the operation must be carried out by after-sale agent with dedicated tools to avoid any accidents.
  • If the appliance is being connected directly to the mains an omnipolar circuit- breaker must be installed with a minimum opening of 3mm between contacts.
  • The installer must ensure that the correct electrical connection has been made and that it is compliant with safety regulations.
  • The cable must not be bent or compressed.
  • The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by authorised technicians only.

Production Operation

Control touch 

  • The controls can sense touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure.
    Use the finger, instead of the nail to operate it.
  • Each time a touch is sensed, you will hear a “beep” sound.
  • Make sure the control area are always clean, dry, and there is no object (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make it hard to control.

PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (8)

Choose the right Cookware 

PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (9)

  • 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/pot.
  • You can check whether your cookware is suitable for the induction hob by carrying out a magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan/pot. If it is attracted, the pan/pot is suitable for induction hob.
  • If you do not have a magnet:
    • 3. Put some water in the pan/pot you want to check.
    • 4. If PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (10)does not flash in the display and water is being heated, the pan/pot is suitable.
  • Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable for an induction hob: pure stainless steel, aluminum or copper pan/pot without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.
  • Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (11)
  • Make sure that the base of your pan/pot is smooth, sits flat against the crystal plate, and is the same diameter as the cooking zone. If use the bigger pan/pot, the hob will work with maximum efficiency. If use smaller pan/pot, efficiency could be less than expected. The hob may can’t detect
    pan/pot with diameter less than 140mm. Always place your pan/pot on the center of cooking zone.PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (12)
  • Always lift pan/pot off the hob – do not slide pan/pot on the crystal plate, or they may scratch the plate.

PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (13)

Suggested Pan dimensions for induction hob
The cooking zones are, up to a limit, automatically adapted to the diameter of the the pan. However, it is suggested that the bottom of this pan have a diameter minimum according to the corresponding cooking zone. To obtain the best performance from your hob, please place the pan in the center of the cooking zone.

Keep warm
Select the heating area, press the “keep warm” button, the heating area will enter the heat preservation cooking mode, and the display will show “PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (19)” ,the induction cooker will heat with low power to maintain the proper temperature of the pot.
The power is not adjustable under this function.

Timer
You can use timer function by below two ways:

  • You can use it as a minute reminder. In this case, the timer will not close any cooking area at the set time.
  • You can also set it to turn off one or more heating zones after the setting time

PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (20)

PKM-IN5-FZ-2-Induction-Hob-FIG- (21)

When a heating zone is set a timer and the heating time reaches the set timer, the heating zone automatically sets the power level to 0, and the power output is turned off.

The above pictures are for reference only, subject to the final product.

Timed reminder
In the working state, if no heating zone is selected, press the timing function button to set time and start the time reminder function. When the set time is reached, the buzzer will sound a warning for 30S.
The timing time can be adjusted to “0” to exit the timing reminder function.

  • In the timing state, if you press the heating area selection button to select the hob, the current display time is the timing of the currently selected hob.
  • The display time shows one of the four timers, the decimal point of the single digit display of the corresponding zone will flash. It means the time currently displayed is the timing time of the area.
  • If all of the decimal point of single digit does not flash, it means that the current two digits display is the time of the timing reminder.

Default working time
Auto shutdown is the safety protection function of induction cooker. This occurs whenever you forget to switch off a cooking zone. The default shutdown times as below table:

Power level 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Default working timer (hour) 8 4 4 4 2 2 2 2 2

The display will stop heating immediately when cookers are moved away, and auto turn off after 2 minutes.
If there are multiple heating areas heating at the same time, the default timing of the whole machine is the one with the longest default timing time.
