OPERATION
Function Test
Before carrying out function checks, the operator must know
how to operate the cooker.
Your cooker must be positioned in a suitable place and
connected to a voltage supply. Make sure the cooker is well
positioned and free from exposure to vibration.
Make sure the knob is in the “OFF” position.
Remove all objects from the glass ceramic cooking zone,
verify if this area is neither cracked not broken. Don’t
continue with use when the glass ceramic cooking zone is
cracked or broken, immediately switch off and disconnect
the cooker from the outlet.
CAUTION The glass ceramic cooking zone is warmed up
from the heat of the pan. To avoid injuries (burning) do not
touch this area.
1. Use a pan that is suitable for induction cooking, having
a bottom diameter of at least 127 mm (5”). Note for Wok
units, use supplied wok pan.
2. Put some water in the pan and place the pan in the center
of the heating area.
3. Turn the control knob ON ( in a position between 1 and
10) The indicator will illuminate lights (green), and the
water will be heated.
4. Take the pan away from the heating area, the indicator
light will flash.
5. Place the pan back on the heating area, the indicator light
will illuminate and the heating process will continue.
6. Turn the control knob to the OFF position, the heating
process will stop, indicator light turns off.
The shining indicator light operation means that energy is
being transferred to the pan.
If the indicator operation remains off, check the following:
1. Is the cooker connected to the outlet?
2. Is the control knob in the ON position?
3. Did you use a suitable pan (bottom diameter at least 127
mm (5”), pan made of suitable material)?
4. Is the pan placed in the center of the heating area?
To verify if the pan is suitable, use a permanent magnet and
find out if it sticks to the bottom of the pan. If not, your pan
is not suitable for induction cooking. Choose a pan which is
recommended for induction cooking.
If in spite of all positive controls and tests the cooker doesn’t
work, refer to the Trouble Shooting Section.
Heating
The induction cooker is switched on with the control knob
(OFF
ON). The cooker is immediately ready for operation.
The illumination indicator operation lights means that
energy is being transferred to the pan.
The power rating is set by turning the control knob.
The inductive power depends on the position of the
potentiometer,
Position 1: Minimum Power
Position 10: Maximum Power for GUI 2.5
Position 12: Maximum Power for all other models.
Control Knob
The number that points to the indicator operation marks the
actual position of the control knob.
OFF - Position
0 points to the indicator operation.
ON - Position
Any position, where other than 0 points to the indicator
operation.
Simmer Control
We have designed these units with excellent simmer control,
The 3.5kW and 5.0Kw units all feature an infinite control
and we have marked the overlays from 1-12 as the power
increases. (0-10 for GUI2.5 BI). We have designed the units
such that the range from 1-9 (1-7 on GIU2.5 BI) controls the
heat from about 5% to 50% of total power, giving a great
range of simmer control. The power jumps dramatically for
strong boiling and quick heat after that.
