Noises
Various noises may be heard when using an induction cooking pan, depending on how the pan is constructed. Noises may
include a buzzing sound, particularly at higher power settings, clicking / cracking, or whistling. The noise will get louder if
the pan base is wet. It is recommended to use a dry pan base.
In addition, the appliance has a cooling fan that may come on during intensive use, and may continue to run even after
the hob has been turned off.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Never place cutlery or other metal objects on the hob. If the zone is accidentally switched on, there is a risk of these
objects becoming hot.
Always switch the cooking zones off after use.
Use the Child Lock to prevent accidental operation of the hob.
The area immediately surrounding the hob is electromagnetically charged. While it is unlikely to affect a pacemaker, if in
doubt please consult your doctor or the manufacturer of the pacemaker.
To prevent damage to items susceptible to magnetic fields e.g. bank cards or electronic devices, do not leave them in the
immediate vicinity of the hob.
Do not leave the appliance whilst in use, or allow pans to boil dry as this could cause damage to the hob surface. Never
heat an empty pan.
To avoid the risk of damage always check that the hob surface and the bottom of pans are free of any dirt or grit (such as
rock salt). Check pan bases for burrs or roughness. The pan base must be smooth.
Always lift pans when moving them across the hob – never drag anything across the surface.
Any spillages of high sugar content foods such as jam or potato should be wiped off the hob immediately as damage can
occur. Be careful as the hob and spillages may be hot.
Never place food, aluminium foil, plastic containers or an empty grill pan directly onto the hob zones. It is dangerous and
damage can occur.
Never cut or prepare food on the glass surface. It is dangerous to do either of these actions and can cause damage to the
hob. Always take care when handling heavy items such as tins of food, jars and pans around the hob. Dropping a heavy
item on the hob may cause damage.
If a crack or chip should appear in the glass surface, isolate the cooker from the electricity supply. Call the Britannia
service department for advice, and do not use the cooker.
TIPS FOR GAS AND ELECTRIC HOBS
Economy tips
Always choose the correct sized burner or zone for the pan. Do not allow flames to lick up the sides of the pan.
As soon as the boiling point is reached, turn the control knob to a lower position to maintain temperature.
Always use pans with lids. Do not overfill pans. Only boil the amount of liquid required. De-scale your stove-top kettle
regularly if you live in a hard water area.
Safety
The gas and electric hobs have been designed to be as safe as possible during use.
Always keep pan handles turned to a safe position so that they cannot overheat, be reached by children or knocked
accidentally.
When heating or frying, never leave fat or oil unattended.
The powerful 2.4kW grill can be used for short periods of time (e.g.
toast/muffins) with the door open, however for better efficiency it is
recommended that the door is closed. A cooling fan situated behind the
control panel switches on to keep the control knobs at a comfortable
temperature when the grill is in use.
The grill pan assembly
The grill compartment is fitted with telescopic runners to make it easier to
access your food. To fix the grill pan onto the runners, simply extend both
runners, then lower the grill pan into place, ensuring the back corners of
the grill pan rest against the vertical pins. The wire trivet that fits into the
grill pan is reversible to provide two grilling heights.
To use the grill
1 Use the reversible trivet to select the correct height for the food you wish
to grill. Using the trivet at the lowest height will help to slow down the
cooking process.
2 Turn the grill control knob clockwise to the maximum setting 7. The
adjacent red thermostat light will illuminate. For best results you
should preheat the grill for 3-5 minutes.
3 Once preheated, adjust the grill control knob clockwise to the desired
setting 1 to 7.
4 To turn off the grill, turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the “0” off
position.
At the end of cooking remove the grill pan for cleaning. If high fat content
foods have been prepared with the door closed, leave the grill turned on at
maximum temperature for 5 minutes. This will burn off any fatty residue
on the elements.
Always use oven gloves when handling the grill pan and turning food.
Do not line the grill pan with aluminium foil, this can cause damage to
the enamel coating and the grill elements.
It is recommended to use fan assisted grilling at 200C° with the door
closed in the main oven for foods that need grilling for longer than 10
minutes (e.g. meat, fish). See page 17 for more info.
