Using the
ceramic
hob
Before first use
IMPORTANT:
You should clean the ceramic hob surface
(see
“Cleaning
and
maintenance”
section).
o You should switch on one cooking zone at a time for 5 minutes
at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new
smell that exists and
evaporate
any humidity that has formed on
the heating
elements
during transit.
o Do not burn off more than one zone at once.
o You must place a saucepan filled half full with cold water on
each zone as you burn it off. Otherwise the induction zone will
not operate.
11

Touch controls
o All
operations
are
performed
by means of the touch controls that
can be found on the control panel.
o The controls respond to touch so you do not need to add any
pressure.
o You should use the ball of your finger not the tip when using the
controls.
o A beep will sound each time a touch is registered.
o You should ensure that the controls are kept clean, dry and that
no objects such as utensils or cloths cover them. Even a thin film
of water may make the controls difficult to operate.
Switching
the hob on
o When the hob is connected to a power supply, an audible signal
will sound. All of the cooking zone indicators will show “-”. The
hob has now entered
stand-by
mode.
o Press the ON/OFF button.
12

Switching
on a zone and setting a power level
IMPORTANT:
A zone must be selected within 1 minute of turning the
hob on.
o Make sure that the bottom of the pan and
the surface of the hob are clean and dry
before placing a suitable pan on the
cooking zone that you wish to use.
o Press the cooking zone selection button of the
cooking zone that you want to use.
o Select the power level for the cooking
zone that you have selected using the
slider control. If you do not choose a
heat setting within 1 minute of turning
the hob on, the hob will switch off
automatically.
o Sliding the slider control to the right
will increase the power level while
sliding the slider control to the left will
decrease the power level. The power
level will show in the relevant display (0 – 9).
o You can alter the power level at any time during cooking using
the slider control.
If the display flashes with the symbol shown opposite,
alternatively
with the heat setting, this means that:
You have not placed a pan on the correct cooking zone or,
The pan you are using is not suitable for
induction
cooking or,
The pan is too small or not properly centred on the cooking
zone.
o No heating will take place unless there is a suitable pan on the
cooking zone. The display will automatically turn off after 1
minute if no suitable pan is placed on it.
13

Power levels
o For a general guide to cooking various foods at the different
power levels please refer to the table below.
o Please note that this table should be viewed as a guide only and
that other factors such as cookware, weight and amount of food
and personal preference will all influence the power level
required.

Switching
off a zone
o Press the cooking zone selection button of the
cooking zone that you want to switch off.
o Turn the cooking zone off by touching
smallest dot on
the power level
control. Ensure
display shows
power
level “0”.
o After a few seconds, the cooking zone
will
switch off.
o A “H” symbol will show in the cooking zone
indicator until the surface has cooled down to
a safe temperature (see the section on the
“residual heat indicator” for further
information).
14

Switching
the hob off
Once you have switched off all of the cooking zones, you should switch
the hob off.
o Press the ON/OFF button.
o It is possible to turn the hob off at any time by
pressing the ON/OFF button.
Residual
heat indicator
o After a zone is switched off, the
corresponding cooking zone indicator will
show a letter “H”. This means that the
temperature of the zone is over 60°C and is
therefore
still high enough to cause injury.
o IMPORTANT: The residual heat indicator will disappear if your
mains supply is cut. Care should be taken in case the surface
temperature
is still high.
Pan sensor
Each zone has a sensor on it, so it can detect the
presence
of a pan.
o The sensor is fine-tuned to detect a pan being placed on it. The
pan should be one size smaller than the nominal diameter of the
zone.
o If after placing a pan on a cooking zone and
selecting that cooking zone, a “U” shaped symbol
appears on the cooking zone indicator, this means
that the pan is either the incorrect size or shape.
Or it could be made from a material that is
inappropriate
for use on an
induction
zone hob.
o If a cooking zone is selected but no pan is detected, the pan
sensor system will check for the presence of a pan
approximately every few seconds. If no pan is detected after 1
minutes the hob will
automatically
switch off
o You should check that your pans are suitable for use on an
induction zone hob (see the pan manufacturer’s trademark or
instructions).

relevant zone and then pressing either the booster button again,
by selecting a new
temperature

Switching on a dual circuit flexible cooking zone
The dual circuit cooking zones enable you to use two
vertical cooking zones simultaneously, creating one large
zone. This function is particularly useful when using

o Adjust the power in the usual way by using the power slider
control.
NOTE: If
for example your pan is moved from the front area of the dual zone to
the rear of the dual zone, the flexible area automatically detects the new position
of the pan and will adjust the heating accordingly whilst keeping the same power.
When using the dual zones cookware should be placed as central as
possible and should ideally cover both crosses.
Switching off a dual circuit flexible cooking zone
o You can turn off the dual zone by the normal way of selecting the (dual) zone
and reducing the power.
o You can you also separate the zones by selecting the individual
cooking zones using the dedicated selection buttons.

safety lock is activated, the safety lock will still be active when
the hob is turned back on.
Safety cut-off
o If one or more of the cooking zones are
accidentally
left on, a
safety cut off will activate after a certain period of time. The
length of time depends on the power level that a zone or zones
have been set on.

protection
o The hob is equipped with a temperature sensor which monitors
the
temperature
inside of the appliance.
o If an unusually high temperature is detected the induction hob
will stop
operating
automatically.

Detection
of
unknown
items
o When an
unsuitably
sized or
non-magnetic
pan (e.g. aluminium),
or some other small item (e.g. knife, fork, key) has been left on the
hob, the hob will
automatically
go on to standby mode after 1
minute. The fan will keep cooling the
induction
hob for a further 1
minute.
The

o
hen using the dual zones cookware should be placed as central as
possible and should cover both crosses.

O The saucepans must be positioned exactly on these zones for
efficient heating to occur. Pans should have the same
diametre
as
the cooking zone that they are being used on.
o You should not use saucepans with rough bottoms, as this can
scratch the ceramic surface. Before use, make sure that the
bottoms of the
saucepans
are clean and dry.
o When cold, the bottom of the pans should be slightly concave, as
they expand when hot and lie flat on the surface of the hob. This
will allow the heat to transfer more easily.
o The best thickness for the bottom of the pans is 2 – 3 mm of
enamelled
steel and 4 – 6 mm for
stainless
steel with
sandwich
type
bottoms.
o If these rules are not followed, then there will be a great loss of
heat and energy. Heat not absorbed by the
saucepan,
will spread to
the hob, frame and
surrounding
cabinets.
o
Preferably
cover pans with a lid to permit cooking at a lower heat.
o Always cook vegetables and potatoes, etc. in as little water as
possible to reduce cooking times.
o Food or liquid that has high sugar content may damage the hob top
if it comes into contact with the ceramic hob surface. Any spillages
should be wiped up
immediately,
however this may not prevent the
hob surface from
becoming
damaged.
o IMPORTANT: The ceramic hob surface is tough; however it is not
unbreakable and can be damaged. Especially if pointed or hard
objects are allowed to fall on it with some force.
o DO NOT USE THE HOB IF THE SURFACE BECOMES BROKEN
OR CRACKED. YOU SHOULD CONTACT THE BAUMATIC
CUSTOMER
CARE
DEPARTMENT
IMMEDIATELY.
24

Cleaning
and maintenance
Cleaning operations must only be carried out
when the hob is cool.
The appliance should be disconnected from your
mains supply before commencing any cleaning
process.
