Do not immerse in water!
The principle and the advantages of induction heating
The main advantage of the induction heating is the elimination of heat losses, because it heats the bottom
of the pot directly. If you are using electrical hobs with burners or ceramic glass cooktop, the burner or the
cooktop heats up always fi rst and then is the heat transferred to the bottom of the pot. This transition is the
source of high heat losses, especially when the bottom of the pot and the cooktop do not fi t exactly to each
other (there is a gap or burned food between them). In contrast, the induction heating warms the bottom of
the pot much faster, and the cooking is then faster as well, using substantially less electrical power.
Suitable cookware for cooking on an induction hob
Before use, make sure that the pot you would use is made of magentisable conductive material (enamel, cast
iron, stainless steel) while the bottom of the pot is fl at and even and has at least 12 cm diameter.
CAUTION:
The maximum pot size for the small hob is 18 cm, the maximum pot size for the large hob is 24 cm!
The pot must be placed on the induction surface only. By no means shall the pot touch the plastic
part of the appliance, for example the panel containing the display! Risk of damaging the whole
panel and limiting the functionality of the entire device.
The induction hob is ready for cooking nearly immediately. Never place empty pots/pans on the ceramic
glass cootop. Place the pot/pan always at the center of the induction zone, otherwise the lower part of the
pan is heated unevenly and the food in the pan may burn.
Unsuitable cookware:
ceramic, glass, aluminum, pans/pots with rounded/convex bottom or with a diameter
less than 12 cm or greater than 24 cm.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Place the induction hob on a fl at surface in such a way that the openings for air intake and outfl ow are not
covered. The distance between the wall and the induction hob must be at least 10 cm.

1) Switching on
1. After plugging the induction hob in the electric outlet you will hear a beep and you will see “OFF” on
the display.
2. Press the on/off button and the display shows „ON“ (on), the fan starts and the induction hob switches
from standby mode to heating mode.
3. The induction hob detects if you are using correct cookware. If yes, after the “ON” indicator shows on the
display, press the “Menu” button and you can select the cooking setting, the hob will switch on.
4. Otherwise, it is not possible to select the cooking setting after pressing the “Menu button”. You will
hear repeated sound signal and the display shows warning notice E0. The induction hob will switch to
standby mode after 40 seconds.
