Care and Cleaning
The settings below are guidelines only. The exact setting will de-
pend on several factors, including your cookware and the amount
you are cooking. Experiment with the cooktop to find the settings
that best suit you.
Everyday soiling on glass (fingerprints, marks, stains left by food
or non-sugary spillovers on the glass)
1 Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2 Apply a cooktop cleaner while the glass is still warm (but
not hot!)
3 Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.
4 Switch the power to the cooktop back on.
• When the power to the cooktop is switched off, there will be
no ‘hot surface’ indication but the cooking zone may still be
hot! Take extreme care.
• Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon scourers and harsh/abra-
sive cleaning agents may scratch the glass. Always read the
label to check if your cleaner or scourer is suitable.
• Never leave cleaning residue on thecooktop: the glass may
become stained.
Boilovers, melts, and hot sugary spills on the glass remove these
immediately with a fish slice, palette knife or razor blade scraper
suitable for Induction glass cooktops, but beware of hot cooking
zone surfaces:
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall.
2 Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° angle and scrape the
soiling or spill to a cool area of the cooktop.
3 Clean the soiling or spill up with a dish cloth or paper towel.
4 Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday soiling on glass’ above.
• Remove stains left by melts and sugary food or spillovers
as soon as possible. If left to cool on the glass, they may be
difficult to remove or even permanently damage the glass
surface.
• Cut hazard: when the safety cover is retracted, the blade in
a scraper is razor-sharp. Use with extreme care and always
store safely and out of reach of children.
Spillovers on the touch controls
1 Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2 Soak up the spill
3 Wipe the touch control area with a clean damp sponge or
cloth.
4 Wipe the area completely dry with a paper towel.
5 Switch the power to the cooktop back on.
• The cooktop may beep and turn itself off, and the touch con-
trols may not function while there is liquid on them. Make
sure you wipe the touch control area dry before turning the
cooktop back on.
Hints and Tips
The induction hob cannot be turned on.
- No power.
• Make sure the induction hob is connected to the power sup-
ply and that it is switched on.
• Check whether there is a power outage in your home or
area. If you’ve checked everything and the problem persists,
call a qualified technician.
The touch controls are unresponsive.
- The controls are locked.
• Unlock the controls. See section ”Using your induction
cooktop” for instructions.
The touch controls are difficult to operate.
- There may be a slight film of water over the controls or
you may be using the tip of your finger when touching the
controls.
• Make sure the touch control area is dry and use the ball of
your finger when touching the controls.
The glass is being scratched.
- Rough-edged cookware.
• Unsuitable, abrasive scourer or cleaning products being used.
• Use cookware with flat and smooth bases. See ‘Choosing the
right cookware’.
• See ‘Care and cleaning’.
Some pans make crackling or clicking noises.
- This may be caused by the construction of your cookware
(layers of different metals vibrating differently).
• This is normal for cookware and does not indicate a fault.
The induction hob makes a low humming noise when used
on a high heat setting.
- This is caused by the technology of induction cooking.
• This is normal, but the noise should quieten down or disap-
pear completely when you decrease the heat setting.
Fan noise coming from the induction hob.
- A cooling fan built into your induction hob has come on to
prevent the electronics from overheating. It may continue to
run even after you’ve turned the induction hob off.
• This is normal and needs no action. Do not switch the power
to the induction hob off at the wall while the fan is running.
Pans do not become hot and appears in the display.
- The induction hob cannot detect the pan because it is not
suitable for induction cooking.
- The induction hob cannot detect the pan because it is too
small for the cooking zone or not properly centred on it.
• Use cookware suitable for induction cooking. See section
‘Choosing the right cookware’.
• Centre the pan and make sure that its base matches the size
of the cooking zone.
