7.
Users with heart pacemakers should consult with the manufacturer of the pacemaker or their
doctor.
USER MAINTENANCE
1.
Before working on or cleaning the equipment, isolate it from the power supply and allow it to
cool to a safe working temperature.
2.
Clean units regularly with hot water and detergent, do not use abrasive or chlorine based
cleaners on stainless steel. Take care to avoid wetting electrical components.
Do not use a water jet.
3.
Clean the ceramic glass regularly. Avoid abrasive sponges or scouring agents and harsh
chemical cleaners like oven sprays. Remove dirt and food with a scraper or Vileda CERAN
cleaning sponge.
Once the ceramic glass has cooled, use a few drops of suitable cleaner on a paper towel or the
rough side of the sponge. Wipe the ceramic glass with a damp cloth and dry it with a clean cloth
or the smooth side of the sponge
If plastic, aluminium foil, sugar or sugary food has dropped onto hot ceramic glass,
scrape it off immediately. If these substances melt they can damage the surface.
4.
Check the air filter(s) regularly – they are washable if contaminated.
INDUCTION COOKING AND PAN SELECTION
With induction cooking, heat is produced directly in the base of the pan. The system comprises a
ceramic glass hob surface with an induction coil beneath it. The coil generates an alternating magnetic
field. When a pan with a magnetic base is placed on the cooking zone, eddy currents are created in the
base of the pan leading to the production of heat. The pan heats very quickly.
The quality of the cookware is important to the efficiency of induction cooking. The base of the pan
needs to be flat and with good heat distribution.
Generally;
Suitable pans are made from cast iron, enamelled steel and stainless steel with a magnetic base.
Unsuitable pans are glass, earthenware, aluminium, copper and non-magnetic stainless steel.
Operation of the pan detection system is dependent on the size of the pan and its material.
Power available from the induction coil to the pan will vary and is dependent on size and pan material.
Induction generators make buzzing, whistling and clicking noises especially on lower power settings.
This is normal for this type of equipment.
The pan should be located concentrically over the ceramic glass target ring. If the inner ring of the
ceramic glass is visible around the pan, then the pan is too small.
