Induction and Ceramic Care
• Important information for pacemaker and
implanted insulin pump users: The functions of this
hob comply with the applicable European standards
on electromagnetic interference. If you are fitted
with a pacemaker or implanted insulin pump and are
concerned please consult your doctor for medical
advice.
• When the hob is in use keep magnetic items away, such
as credit and debit cards, floppy disk, calculators, etc.
• Take care when touching the marked cooking areas of
the hob.
• Use adequately sized pans with flat bottoms that are
large enough to cover the surface of the hotplate
heating area. Using undersized pans will expose a
portion of the hotplate surface to direct contact and
may result in the ignition of clothing
• Only certain types stainless steel, enamelled steel pans
or cast iron pans with enamelled bases are suitable for
induction hob cooking.
• Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, earthenware
or other glazed containers are suitable for hotplate
cooking; others may break because of the sudden
change in temperature. NEVER cook directly on the hob
surface (Fig. 1.1).
• Take care NOT to scratch the surface when placing
cookware on the glass panel.
• DO NOT leave the hob zones switched on unless being
used for cooking.
• DO NOT stand or rest heavy objects on the hob.
Although the ceramic surface is very strong, a sharp
blow or sharp falling object (e.g. a salt cellar) might
cause the surface to crack or break (Fig. 1.2).
• Should a crack appear in the surface, disconnect the
appliance immediately from the supply and arrange for
its repair.
• Always LIFT pans off the hob. Sliding pans may cause
marks and scratches (Fig. 1.3).
• Objects such as pan lids and items with thin bases
including kettles, may stick to the ceramic surface. In the
unlikely event that this happens DO NOT attempt to lift
or lever the item to remove, as this may cause damage
to both the item and the ceramic surface. Remove
objects by carefully sliding to the hob perimeter.
Damage caused by incorrect removal will not be
covered under the terms of the warranty.
• DO NOT place anything between the base of the pan
and the hob surface (e.g. asbestos mats, aluminium foil,
wok stand).
• Take care NOT to place metallic objects such as knives,
forks, spoons and lids on the hob surface since they can
get hot.
• We recommend that you avoid wiping any surface unit
areas until they have cooled and the indicator light
has gone off. Sugar spills are the exception to this (see
‘Cleaning your Cooker’). After cleaning, use a dry cloth
or paper towel to remove any cleaning cream residue.
