This particular model, DOC235, is a compact and user-friendly device, ideal for various household cooking needs. | | Key Features: | | * Induction Heating: The primary function is to provide fast and efficient cooking by directly heating the base of ferromagnetic cookware. This method minimizes heat loss to the surrounding environment, making it more energy-efficient than traditional electric hobs. | | * Single Cooking Zone: Equipped with one cooking zone, it is suitable for preparing individual meals, side dishes, or for use in smaller kitchens where space is a premium. | | * Touch Control Panel: The appliance features a sleek touch control interface, allowing for easy and intuitive operation. The panel includes dedicated buttons for power on/off, setting adjustments, timer control, child lock, and a "keep warm" function. | | * Digital Display: A clear digital display shows the current power level, temperature, or remaining timer duration, providing precise feedback to the user. | | * Power and Temperature Settings: Users can adjust the cooking intensity through both power (wattage) and temperature (Celsius) settings, offering versatility for different cooking techniques. The power can be set from 200W to 2000W, and the temperature from 60°C to 240°C. | | * Timer Function: An integrated timer allows for precise cooking durations, ranging from 1 to 180 minutes. This feature helps prevent overcooking and allows for unattended cooking within safe limits. | | * Child Lock: A safety feature that locks the control panel, preventing accidental changes to settings or activation by children. | | * Keep Warm Function: This feature maintains food at a warm temperature after cooking, ensuring meals stay ready to serve. | | * Automatic Shut-off: The hob is designed to automatically turn off when the set temperature is reached in power mode, or when the timer expires. It also has safety mechanisms for overheating. | | * Cooling Fan: After use, a cooling fan operates for approximately one minute to cool down the internal components, extending the appliance's lifespan. | | Important Technical Specifications: | | * Model: DOC235 | | * Version: 1.6 | | * Type: Electric Induction Hob | | * Cooking Zones: 1 | | * Heating Technology: Induction | | * Cookware Diameter: 12cm to 26cm (recommended for optimal performance) | | * Rated Voltage: 220-240V~ | | * Frequency: 50-60Hz | | * Max Power: 2000W | | * Energy Consumption (per cooking zone/hob): 180.8 Wh/kg | | Usage Features: | | * Initial Setup: Upon plugging in, the appliance emits a beep, and all control lights activate briefly. Pressing the "on/off" button initiates the standby mode, indicated by "C" on the LED display. | | * Power Mode: To cook using power settings, place compatible cookware on the hob. Press the "setting" button until "1400W" (default) is displayed. Adjust the power from 200W to 2000W using the "+" and "-" buttons. In this mode, the hob heats up to a maximum of 160°C. Once this temperature is reached, the appliance will turn off. It is advised to unplug and allow the unit to cool for 5-10 minutes before subsequent use. | | * Temperature Mode: For precise temperature control, press the "setting" button until the "C°" indicator lights up. The display will show "200" (default temperature). Adjust the temperature from 60°C to 240°C using the "+" and "-" buttons. This mode is particularly recommended for tasks like frying, where consistent temperature is crucial. | | * Timer Operation: The timer function is activated by pressing the "timer" button. The default time is "10" minutes. Adjust the time using "+" (10-minute increments) and "-" (1-minute increments) buttons, within a range of 1 to 180 minutes. Confirm the setting by pressing the "timer" button again or by waiting for the display to stop flashing. The appliance will beep and enter standby mode once the timer expires. The timer can be canceled by pressing the "on/off" button or by holding the "timer" button to resume cooking. | | * Child Lock: To activate the child lock, press the "+" and "-" buttons simultaneously.
