How induction hobs function

Induction hobs work very differently from conventional hobs or hot plates. The induction coils under the glass ceramic plate produce a rapidly changing magnetic field which directly heats up the magnetic base of the cookware.

The glass ceramic plate is only warmed by the hot cookware. Removing the cookware from the cooking zone immediately interrupts the supply of energy. Induction hobs are:

• quick reacting
• finely adjustable
• powerful
• energy-efficient
• safe

Cookware with a full-surface or full magnetic base is required for cooking with an induction hob.

Pan detection

Each cooking zone is equipped with pan detection. This detects suitable induction compatible cookware with a magnetic base.

• If cookware is placed on a cooking zone before it is turned on, illuminates in the corresponding display.
• If the cookware is removed during operation or if unsuitable cookware is used,
  • the power level selected flashes alternately with .
• If the power level is set but no cookware is detected on the cooking zone within the next 10 minutes,
  • the cooking zone switches off.
  • the appliance switches off after 10 seconds if no other cooking zone is in use.

Flexible cooking

In flexible cooking, there are no marked cooking zones.
Pans with different diameters can be placed on any cooking zone. must, however, be covered for pan detection.

For even frying, the pan must be centred on . The diameter of the base of the pan should not be greater than the diameter of the cooking zone.
If a large pan covers both circles, both heating zones can be switched on together with the bridging function.

Cookware

Suitable cookware
Only cookware with a magnetic base (ø12.5–22 cm, in the centre ø18–28 cm) is suitable for use with the induction hob.

This can be tested in the following ways:

• A magnet sticks anywhere on the base of the cookware.
• Only the power level set illuminates on the hob.

Do not heat any unsuitable cookware using aids such as metal rings and the like. This can damage the hob.

Energy-efficient cooking

For maximum energy efficiency and even heat distribution note the following:

• The base of the cookware must be clean, dry and smooth.
• Centre the cookware in the middle of the cooking zone.
• Use a well-fitting lid.
• Match the diameter of the cookware to the quantity of food to be cooked.

Coated cookware

• Coated cookware may be operated above power level provided that the bottom of the pan is completely covered with liquid.
  • The coating may otherwise become overheated and damaged.
• For frying, do not use a higher power level than .

Never use PowerPlus with coated frying pans.

Noise during cooking
Cookware can make noise during cooking. This does not indicate any malfunction, nor does it affect the functioning of the appliance in any way.

Noise depends on the cookware used. If the noise causes considerable disturbance, it can help to change the cookware.

OptiGlass

Hobs with OptiGlass have an additional coating on the glass surface.
This coating makes the surface harder, tougher and more scratch resistant than noncoated glass surfaces. Follow care and maintenance instructions.

Under normal circumstances, significantly fewer scratches should occur on the glass surface during cooking. However, even a sharp grain of sand or particle of grit, for example, under a pan can cause scratches.

Illumination

• Halogen or LED light bulbs are recommended for illuminating hobs with the OptiGlass coating.

The use of fluorescent tube lighting to illuminate hobs with the OptiGlass coating causes the glass surface to shimmer.

If, as the user of a cardiac pacemaker (or a hearing aid or another type of implant), you would like to be reassured that using the appliance does not pose a risk, you are advised to consult a competent medical authority.

Overheated fat and oil can easily catch fire. NEVER attempt to extinguish burning oil or fat with water. Danger of explosion! Smother the flames with a fire blanket. Keep doors and windows closed.

Risk of injury
Keep pets away from the appliance.

Risk to life
Packaging material, e.g. plastic film and polystyrene, can be dangerous for children and animals. Danger of suffocation! Keep packaging material away from children and animals.

How to avoid damaging the appliance

• In case of overheating, switch the hotplate off and allow it to cool down completely. Do not put any dishes on it. Under no circumstances use cold water to cool it down quickly.
• Do not climb on to the appliance.
• Do not put hot cookware on the hob frame in order not to damage the silicone joints.
• Do not cut or prepare food on the surface and avoid impact with hard objects. Do not drag cookware across the surface.
• Take particular care that sugary foods or juices do not get onto the hot cooking zones as this can damage the surface. If sugary foods or juices do get on to the hot cooking zones clean away immediately (while still hot) with a scraper.
• Pots with pure copper or aluminium bases should not be used for cooking as they can leave behind traces that can be difficult to clean. If the traces are not removed immediately after cooking with a suitable cleaning agent, they can be permanently burned on and therefore permanently ruin the visual appearance of the appliance.
• Sliding pans and cookware across the glass ceramic causes scratches. This can be largely prevented by lifting pans and cookware up and then placing them down in position.
• The hob is designed to be used – signs of use, such as scratches or the wear and tear from pans and cookware, are normal. The more intensively it is used, the greater the signs of use; however, the appliance remains in perfect working order and therefore does not give a right of complaint. Safety is guaranteed at all times.
• There is no such thing as completely scratch-proof glass; scratches can even develop on sapphire glass, which is used in watches. The glass ceramic used is of the best quality available on the market.
