Sensor calibration: 

Sensor calibration will be made after every "power on" of the power 

lines. During sensor calibration "-" will be shown in all displays. Do 

not cover the sensors during this time. Prevent control from high 

ambient light levels. 
Switch on control: 

Operate “H” sensor (on the right 

side) for at least 1 sec. 

  

Select heater: 

Flashing "0" or “X” (already selected cooking 

level) shows selected heater. Heater selection 

can be made by toggling heaters with TOS 

Sensor.  

  

Cooking Level Selection:  

 

Once a heater is selected, touch “+” to increase the cooking level, 

touch “-” to decrease the cooking level

For the first time use, operate your electric cooker for 5 minutes in po-

sition 3 without placing a utensil on it. This is going to provide for the 

hardening of the heat resistant material on the cooker.

In order to get the maximum efficiency out of the heaters, please pay 

attention to the sizes of the utensils that are going to be placed on the 

heaters and the utensil to be flat base one.

The diameter of the bases of the utensils to be used; should be the 

same as the diametre of the heater. While buying new sets of utensils, 

please pay attention to the dimensions of the heater surfaces.

In  order to  protect the glass surface of your cooker; the cap of the 

cooking utensil should be closed during the cooking procedure.

Aluminium or copper based utensils may leave traces to  be 

cleaned on the glass surface after the cooking procedure which 

will require cleaning.
Utensils with barbed bases should not be used since they may 

scratch the glass surface.

The bases of the cooking utensils should be clean and dry before 

using on the cooker.

The base of the cooking utensil should be a bit concave while cold. 

When it is heated in this manner due to a little bir of expansion, the 

contact with the surface of the cooker would have been increased and 

the maximum amount of heat transfer is thereby provided from the 

cooker to the utensil. For the enamel utensil bases the best thick-

ness is 2 to 3 mms; however the same measurement is 4 to 6 mms 

at its best for stainless steel utensils with sandwich type bases. 

To decide on whether the base of the utensil is correct or not; a very 

simple test could be performed  (when  it  is  cold).  Keep  the  base  of 

the  utensil  on  a  flat  table  and  cut  down  some  paper  shreds  and 

pass  them  underneath  the  utensil.  (for  an  enamel  utensil,  5  to  10 

paper shreds; and for a stainless steel utensil, 2 to 5 paper shreds 

are going to be appropriate).
