HOB - HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

Cookware

For induction cooking zones a strong electro-magnetic field creates the heat in the cookware very quickly.

Use the induction cooking zones with suitable cookware.

Cookware material

Power management function

• All cooking zones are connected as on the illustration.

• The hob and both ovens are connected to one phase.

• The phase has a maximum electricity load.

• The function divides the power within the appliance. The oven is more important than the hob.

• The function activates when the total electricity load in the appliance is exceeded.

• The function decreases the power on the cooking zones to prevent a circuit overload.

• The heat setting display of the reduced zones changes between two levels.

• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel, stainless steel, multi-layer bottom (with a correct marking from a manufacturer).

• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.

Cookware is suitable for an induction hob if:

• water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting.

• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.

The bottom of the cookware must be as thick and flat as possible. Ensure pan bases are clean and dry before placing on the hob surface.

Cookware dimensions

Induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension of the bottom of the cookware automatically.

The cooking zone efficiency is related to the diameter of the cookware. The cookware with a diameter smaller than the minimum receives only a part of the power generated by the cooking zone.

Minimum cookware diameter

The noises during operation

If you can hear:

• crack noise: cookware is made of different materials (a sandwich construction).

• whistle sound: you use a cooking zone with a high power level and the cookware is made of different materials (a sandwich construction).

• humming: you use a high power level.

• clicking: electric switching occurs.

hissing, buzzing: the fan operates. The noises are normal and do not indicate any malfunction.

Öko Timer (Eco Timer)

To save energy, the heater of the cooking zone deactivates before the count down timer sounds. The difference in the operation time depends on the heat setting level and the length of the cooking operation.

Examples of cooking applications

The correlation between the heat setting of a zone and its consumption of power is not linear. When you increase the heat setting, it is not proportional to the increase of the consumption of power. It means that a cooking zone with the medium heat setting uses less than a half of its power.

The data in the table is for guidance only.

HOB - CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

General information

• Clean the hob after each use.

• Always use cookware with a clean base.

• Scratches or dark stains on the surface have no effect on how the hob operates.

• Use a special cleaner suitable for the surface of the hob.

• Use a special scraper for the glass.

Cleaning the hob

• Remove immediately: melted plastic, plastic foil, sugar and food with sugar, otherwise, the dirt can cause damage to the hob. Take care to avoid burns. Use a special hob scraper on the glass surface at an acute angle and move the blade on the surface.

• Remove when the hob is sufficiently cool: limescale rings, water rings, fat stains, shiny metallic discoloration. Clean the hob with a moist cloth and a non-abrasive detergent. After cleaning, wipe the hob dry with a soft cloth.

• Remove shiny metallic discoloration: use a solution of water with vinegar and clean the glass surface with a cloth.

• Cakes and pastries at different heights do not always brown equally. There is no need to change the temperature setting if an unequal browning occurs. The differences equalize during baking.

• Trays in the oven can twist during baking. When the trays become cold again, the distortions disappear.

Tips on baking

Baking results Possible cause Remedy
The bottom of the cake is not browned sufficiently. The shelf position is incorrect. Put the cake on a lower shelf.
The cake sinks and becomes soggy, lumpy or streaky. The oven temperature is too high. The next time you bake, set a slightly lower oven temperature.
The baking time is too short. Set a longer baking time. You cannot decrease baking times by setting higher temperatures.
There is too much liquid in the mixture. Use less liquid. Be careful with mixing times, especially if you use a mixing machine.
The cake is too dry. The oven temperature is too low. The next time you bake, set a higher oven temperature.
The baking time is too long. The next time you bake, set a shorter baking time.
The cake browns unevenly. The oven temperature is too high and the baking time is too short. Set a lower oven temperature and a longer baking time.
The mixture is unevenly distributed. Spread the mixture evenly on the baking tray.
The cake is not ready in the baking time given. The oven temperature is too low. The next time you bake, set a slightly higher oven temperature.
