1. Before You Start...

Thank you for buying a this cooker. It should give you many
years of trouble-free cooking if installed and operated
correctly. It is important that you read this section before you
start, particularly if you have not used an induction cooker
before.
CAUTION: This appliance is for cooking purposes
n n
only. It must not be used for other purposes, for
example room heating. Using it for any other
purpose could invalidate any warranty or liability
claim. Besides invalidating claims this wastes fuel
and may overheat the control knobs.

Installation and Maintenance

The electrical installation should be in accordance with
BS 7671. Otherwise, all installations must be in accordance
with the relevant instructions in this booklet, with the
relevant national and local regulations, and with the local
electricity supply companies' requirements.
Make sure that the cooker is wired in and switched on.
The hob control display will flash for about 2 seconds
during first power setting – this is normal.
It is recommended that this appliance is serviced annually.
The cooker should be serviced only by a qualified service
engineer, and only approved spare parts should be used.
Always allow the cooker to cool and then switch it off at the
mains before cleaning or carrying out any maintenance work,
unless specified otherwise in this guide.

Peculiar Smells

When you first use your cooker it may give off a slight odour.
This should stop after use.
Before using for the first time, make sure that all packing
materials have been removed and then, to dispel
manufacturing odours, turn the ovens to 200 °C and run for at
least an hour.
Make sure the room is well ventilated to the outside air
(see 'Ventilation' below). People with respiratory or allergy
problems should vacate the area for this brief period.

Ventilation

The use of a cooking appliance results in the production
of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed.
Therefore, make sure that the kitchen is well ventilated – keep
natural ventilation holes open or install a powered cooker
hood that vents outside. If you have several hotplates on, or
use the cooker for a long time, open a window or turn on an
extractor fan.

insulin pump users: The functions of this hob comply with
the applicable European standards on electromagnetic

Cooking high moisture

back and allow any steam to
disperse.
Always keep combustible materials, e.g. curtains, and
flammable liquids a safe distance away from your cooker.
DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal

scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of
the glass.

n n
while it is on.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable – using damp
