1 Induction hot plate
1 Set of operating instructions
5. Cooking with
induction
NOTE: familiarise yourself with induction
cooking. Cooking on induction plates is dif-
ferent to cooking on normal plates:
-
On high temperature settings, the con-
tents of the cooking vessels are heated
up a lot quicker.
-
When the temperature/power is re-
duced, the contents of the cooking vessel
react very quickly to the reduction in tem-
perature (similar to cooking with gas).
When cooking with induction, heat is gener-
ated directly in the base of the cookware by
an electromagnetic field and not in the cook-
ing zone. This saves time and energy when
cooking and frying. You need suitable ferro-
magnetic cookware to enable the energy field
to develop heat.
6. Suitable cookware
NOTE: the appliance switches itself off
(Error message E 1 on the display), if the
cookware ...
… consists of an unsuitable material,
… is not placed in the middle of the
cooking zone|2 and
… is not in the appropriate size.
• Only use ferromagnetic cookware, which
is suitable for induction cooking zones.
- Cookware with a base made of steel
or cast iron is suitable. You can recog-
nise this either by a label (
) or if a
magnet clings to the cookware.
- All metals on which a magnet does
not cling to, are unsuitable, e.g. nor-
mal stainless steel, aluminium and
copper. Also non-metallic containers,
such as those made of ceramics, por-
celain, glass, plastic etc.
• The diameter of the cookware ...
… may not be larger than 26 cm, so
that the base of the cookware does
not extend over the plate and
… may not be smaller than 16 cm, so
the induction field can function.
• The base of the cookware must be level
and flat on the cooking zone|2.
7. How to use
DANGER! Risk of fire!
The appliance is equipped with a
cooling fan on the underside and
needs free air supply.
-
Ensure that the openings on the under-
side are not covered and keep a free
space of at least 10 cm right around
and at least 60 cm towards the top.
-
Do not place the appliance on a textile
surface, e.g. a tablecloth.
• Remove all packing material.
• Check to ensure that all parts are pre-
sent and undamaged.
• Place the device on a dry, level, non-slip
surface.
