YOUR INDUCTION HOB
What you should pay attention to
Induction cooking is extremely safe. Various surveillance systems have been
incorporated in the hob such as a residual heat indicator and a cooking time
limiter. There are nevertheless a number of precautions you should take.
Connection and repair
•
This appliance may only be connected by a qualified installer.
•
Never open the casing. The casing may only be opened by the
service technician.
•
Disconnect the electricity from the appliance before starting
any repair work. Preferably unplug the appliance, switch the
(automatic) fuse(s) off or, in the event of a permanent connection,
set the switch in the power supply lead to zero.
During use
•
Do not use the hob in temperatures below 5 °C.
•
This cooking appliance is designed for household use. It is to be
•
used for food preparation only.
•
When you use the hob for the fi rst time you will notice a "new
smell". This is normal. If the kitchen is well ventilated the smell
will soon disappear.
•
Remember that if the hob is used on a high setting the heating
time will be incredibly short. Do not leave the hob unattended if
you are using a zone on a high setting. Also with the automatic
cooking programs.
•
Ensure there is adequate ventilation while the hob is in use.
•
Keep all natural ventilation openings open.
•
Do not allow pans to boil dry. The hob itself is protected against
overheating but the pan will get very hot indeed and could be
damaged. The guarantee does not cover any damage caused by a
pan boiling dry.
•
Do not use the cooking area as storage space.
•
Ensure that there is several centimetres clearance between the
bottom of the hob and the contents of the drawer.
•
Do not keep anything combustible in the drawer under the hob.
•
Make sure that flexes of electrical appliances, such as a mixer,
cannot touch the hot cooking zone.
