Using your induction hob
Switching on and off
1. Touch the
control. The hob will
switch on and the power levels digits
be displayed and active indicators
will flash.
2. Press the
control again to switch
the hob off. If a cooking zone is still
hot the letter ‘H’ will be displayed to
show its still very hot.
• The ‘H’ symbols may flash in the display the first time your hob is connected and switched
on. This is because the hob has been heat tested at the factory, then switched off while still
hot. This may also happen if you are using the hob and you have a power cut. This is not a
fault. The ‘H’s’ will disappear from the display when you start using the hob.
• Do NOT touch the cooking zones when the hob is switched on or when a ‘H’
is displayed.
Automatic shut off
For improved safety your hob is designed to shut off after a pre set maximum time for each power
level. Even though the hob will automatically switch off, this will not prevent food from over cooking and
burning. This is to prevent the hob accidentally being left on. Each power level has a specific operating
time (see table below). The cut off time is measured from the last power level adjustment made per
cooking zone.
