Operating instructions

• Put the plug in the socket.
• Set the pan of your choice on the cooking surface, bearing the above-mentioned instructions in mind.
  NOTE! Make sure that the pans are covering the indicated zones at all times during use in order to prevent the appliance from getting damaged. Do not leave your pan on the burner while empty as this may lead to damage to your pans.
• Switch the appliance on by pressing the "ON/OFF" and then the "ARROW UP" key. If your pan is suitable for induction and has a bottom diameter of 14 cm, at minimum, the appliance will go into operation. You will recognise this from the fact that the fan will go on and the display will show a capacity position of "2000".
  NOTE! If the appliance beeps after being switched on, the pan you are using is not suitable for induction or the appliance is defective. In case of any doubt, always contact the supplier of your pan!
• Once the appliance is operating and the display indicates position "2000", you can programme the appliance in one of the following two ways:
  1. Capacity control: You can control the performance of the appliance, just as for a gas cooker via 17 positions ranging from 100W to 3500W. The default position for the appliance is "2000".
  2. Temperature control: you can set the temperature between 35°C and 240°C in 5°C increments. Standard position for the appliance is 100°C.
     ATTENTION! The programmed temperature is that of the glass plate and not the temperature in the pan!
• If you choose capacity control, select "heating" using the " Temp/heating" key. Now you can programme the capacity required by means of the arrow keys, 3500W being the highest and 100W the lowest position.
• If you select temperature control, select "Temp" using the "Temp/heating" key. Now you can programme the required temperature by means of the arrow keys between 35°C and 240°C in 5°C intervals.
• After programming the capacity or temperature, you can opt to programme the timer. This timer switches the appliance off after the programmed time has been reached. You do this by pressing the "Timer" key after programming the capacity or temperature, and selecting "Timer". You can now set the desired time. The maximum programmable time is 180 minutes.
• Once you have reached the required result, you can switch off the appliance by pressing the "ON/OFF" key. The display will go off and the lights next to "Power", "Temp" and "Timer" will go off.
• If you do not use the appliance for an extended period, remove the plug from the wall-mounted electrical socket and remove the pans from the appliance.

Note:

1. After an extended period of operation, it is normal for the cooling fan inside to continue running in OFF mode for some time. Before unplug the appliance, wait until the cooling fan stops running.
2. The appliance's surface is still hot even after switch to OFF mode. Please wait the appliance completely cool down before touching or cleaning.
3. If no cookware is placed on the heating surface after switch ON, it will turn to OFF mode automatically within 1 min.
4. If no any button on the control panel is pressed during operation for 2 hours, the appliance will then switch to OFF mode automatically.
5. If the appliance beeps after being switched on, the pan you are using is not suitable for induction or the appliance is defective. In case of any doubt, always contact the supplier of your pan!
