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.
See other models: HWO60S4MX1 HWO60S11TPX1 HWO60S10TX1 HWO60S7EX1 HOR54B5MGW1
• 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:
1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.
2. If “
” 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 against the glass, and is the same size as the cooking zone. Use pans whose diameter is as large as the graphic of the zone selected.Using a pot a slightly wider energy will be used at its maximum efficiency.If you use smaller pot efficiency could be less than expected.Pot less than 140 mm could be undetected by the hob.
Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the Induction hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
To start cooking
1. Power On
When the mains power supply is switched on, the buzzer beeps once and all the indicators light up for 1 second, then go out. This indicates that the ceramic hob has entered standby mode.
When the hob is in the standby mode all the indicator lights do not shine, all the controls are disable except the “ON/OFF” and “keylock” control.
2. Touch the ON/OFF control.
After power on, the buzzer beeps once, all displays show “ – “ or “ – – “, indicating that the induction hob has entered the state of power on status.
When the hob is on, touch“ON/OFF”, all heating areas will be off. Another touch means the hob enters power on status.
