YOUR INDUCTION HOB
Operation induction
A magnetic field is generated in the appliance. By placing a pan with an
iron base on a cooking zone, a current is induced in the pan base. This
induced current generates heat in the base of the pan.
The coil (1) in the hob
(2) generates a
magnetic field (3). By
placing a pan with an
iron base (4) on the
coil, a current is
induced in the base of
the pan.
Easy
The electronic controls are accurate and easy to set. On the lowest
setting, you can melt chocolate directly in the pan, for example, or cook
ingredients that you would normally heat in a bain-marie.
Fast
Thanks to the induction hob's high power levels, bringing food to the
boil is very quick. Cooking food through takes just as long as for other
types of cooking.
Clean
The hob is easy to clean. Because the cooking zones do not get any
hotter than the pans themselves, food spills cannot burn on.
Safe
The heat is generated in the pan itself. The glass top does not get any
warmer than the pan. This means that the cooking zone is considerable
cooler compared to that from a Ceramic hob or a gasburner. Once a pan
has been taken away, the cooking zone cools down quickly.

SAFETY
Induction cooking is extremely safe. Because the heat is generated in the
pan and the ceramic plate will not get hotter than the contents of the
pan, the chance that you will burn yourself on the hob is very slight.
However, there are, as with any other hob, a number of matters of which
you should be aware.
Connecting and repair
– This appliance should only be connected to the mains supply by a
qualified electrician.
– Never open the casing of the appliance. Only authorised personnel
may open the appliance or carry out work on the mains power
supply. The power supply must be disconnected before the appliance
is cleaned or repaired. Preferably, by removing the plug from the
socket, switching off the (automatic) fuse(s) or setting the switch in
the supply cable to zero in the case of a fixed connection.
– Do not continue to use an appliance whose cooking surface is
showing a break or cracks. Switch the appliance off immediately.
Disconnect it from the power supply to avoid electric shocks and
contact your service agent.
First use
– When you use the hob for the first time, you will notice that it smells
'new'. This is caused by the appliance's finish heating up. It is
perfectly normal. The odour will disappear of its own accord as a
result of ventilation.
Ensure that there is adequate ventilation during use
– Keep natural ventilation openings open.
If there is a drawer under the hob
– Ensure that there is a sufficient gap between the hob and the contents
of the drawer.
– Do not place any flammable objects in the drawer.
