5 How to use the hob
General information about cooking
x Before frying foods, always dry them well
and gently place into the hot oil. Ensure
complete thawing of frozen foods before
frying.
x Do not cover the vessel you use when
heating oil.
x Place the pans and saucepans in a
manner so that their handles are not over
the hob to prevent heating of the handles.
Do not place unbalanced and easily tilting
vessels on the hob.
x Do not place empty vessels and
saucepans on cooking zones that are
switched on. They might get damaged.
x Operating a cooking zone without a vessel
or saucepan on it will cause damage to the
product. Turn off the cooking zones after
the cooking is complete.
x As the surface of the product can be hot,
do not put plastic and aluminum vessels
on it. Clean any such melted materials off
the surface immediately.
x Such vessels should not be used to keep
foods either.
x Use flat bottomed saucepans or vessels
only.
x Put appropriate amount of food in
saucepans and pans. Thus, you will not
have to make any unnecessary cleaning
by preventing the dishes from overflowing.
x Do not put covers of saucepans or pans
on cooking zones.
x Place the saucepans in a manner so that
they are centered on the cooking zone.
When you want to move the saucepan
onto another cooking zone, lift and place it
onto the cooking zone you want instead of
Saucepan selection
x Glass ceramic surface is heatproof and is
not affected by big temperature
differences.
x Do not use the glass ceramic surface as a
place of storage or as a cutting board.
x Use only the saucepans and pans with
machined bottoms. Sharp edges create
scratches on the surface.
Spills may damage the glass
ceramic surface and cause
fire.
Do not use vessels with
concave or convex bottoms.
Use only the saucepans and
pans with flat bottoms. They
ensure easier heat transfer.
For Induction hobs use only vessels
suitable for induction cooking.
Saucepan test
Use the following methods to test whether
your saucepan is compatible with the
induction hob or not.
1. Your saucepan is compatible if its bottom
holds a magnet.
2. Your saucepan is compatible if " " does
not flash when you place your saucepan
on the cooking zone and start the hob.
You can use steel, Teflon or aluminium
saucepans with special magnetic bottoms
that contain labels or warnings indicating
that the saucepan is compatible with
induction cooking. Glass and ceramic
vessels, pots and the stainless steel vessels
with non-magnetic aluminium bottom should
not be used.
Saucepan recognition-focusing system
In induction cooking, only the area covered
by the vessel on the relevant cooking zone is
energised. The vessel's bottom is
recognised by the system and only this area
is heated automatically. Cooking stops if the
cooking vessel is lifted from the cooking
zone during cooking. Selected cooking zone
and " " symbol flashes alternately.
DANGER Risk of fire by
overheated oil! When you heat
oil, do not leave it unattended.
Never try to extinguish the fire
with water! When oil has caught
fire, immediately cover the pot or
pan with a lid. Switch off the hob if
safe to do so and phone the fire
service.
