HINTS AND TIPS

1. Cookware

Use the induction cooking zones with suitable 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.
• In order to avoid scratches, do not slide or rub the pot across the ceramic glass.

Cookware material

• 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.

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.
• For both safety reasons and optimal cooking results, do not use cookware larger than indicated in "Cooking zones specification". Avoid keeping cookware close to the control panel during the cooking session. This might impact the functioning of the control panel or accidentally activate hob functions

Steam Vented Lids

To further optimize the cooking sessions alongside the hood you can use the special Steam Vented Lids with your cookware. The lids are designed to direct the steam produced inside the pot towards the hood, minimizing unwanted cooking smells and excessive humidity in the kitchen. The lids are available to buy separately in several sizes to fit most common cookware types. For more information visit our website.

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5 Hints and Tips for the hood

• The grid covering the hood is made of aluminium and stainless steel. You can put pots on it while the hood is not operating. It will not cause any damage.
• When AUTO mode operates, the fan starts at a low speed at the beginning of each cooking session. The speed increases gradually. You can also adjust the speed of the fan manually.
• In case of exhaust installation you have to install a window switch. You need to buy it separately as it is not supplied with the hood. The window switch has to be installed by an authorised technician. Refer to the installation booklet.

CARE AND CLEANING

1 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.

2 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.

3 Cleaning the hood

Grid

The grid drives the air into the hood. Additionally, it protects the hood system and prevents foreign objects from falling inside by accident. You can wash the grid manually or in a dishwasher

Water tank

There is a water tank located under the hood. It collects the condensation created during each cooking process. Remember to empty the water tank regularly.

Before you open the water tank, place a container or a tray under it to collect water. To open the water tank, slide the latches out and open them one by one.

If water or other liquids spill inside the hood system:

• switch off the hood in the first place,
• lift the grid and clean the hood area carefully with a moist cloth or sponge and a mild cleaning agent,
• wipe away the excess liquid gathered on the bottom of the hood cavity using a sponge or a dry cloth,
• switch on the hood, set the fan speed level to 2 or higher and let it run for some time to get rid of the remaining moisture

4 Cleaning the hood filter

The filter prevents grease particles from getting into the hood system. Clean the filter regularly and regenerate it periodically.

Normal cleaning

Clean the filter as soon as the built-up grease is visible. The cleaning frequency depends on the amount of fat and oil used in cooking. It is recommended to clean the filter every 10-20 hours, or more frequently, if needed.

1. Remove the filter and filter housing carefully. They are located right under the grid in the centre of the hob.

2. Clean the hood cavity with a cleaning foam.

3. Wash the filter and filter housing manually in warm water without using detergents or abrasive sponges. You can also wash them in a dishwasher at 65-70 °C (using a program longer than 90 minutes), without detergents and without dishes in the same load. Only the plastic parts can be cleaned using detergents.

4. Dry the filter for 20-30 minutes in the oven at 70 °C. Make sure to use a non-fan oven function.

Fix the filter and filter housing back in place when they are fully dried.

Regenerating the filter

The hob has a built-in counter that reminds you about regenerating the filter. The counter starts automatically when you turn on the hood for the first time. After 100 hours of use the filter indicator starts blinking to signal that it is time to regenerate the filter. The notification stays on for 30 seconds after you deactivate the hood and the hob. The notification does not block the use of the hob.

1. Clean the filter manually or in a dishwasher, as described above (normal cleaning).
2. Put the filter in the oven set to 80-110 °C for 60 minutes. Make sure to use a non-fan oven function.
3. Fix the filter and filter housing back in place.

Reset the counter.

1. Clean and regenerate the filter first, then place it back inside the hood.
2. Press briefly, while the indicator is blinking.

The counter restarts.

TROUBLESHOOTING
