FAQs
Does this hob come with a power cord?
Due to the 7400 W power rating, it is typically supplied without a plug and requires hardwiring by a certified electrician.
Can I use any type of pot?
No, you must use cookware with a ferromagnetic base. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of your pan, it will work on this hob.
Is the white surface hard to keep clean?
While the white glass is durable, it does require regular wiping. We recommend cleaning spills immediately to prevent staining.
What is the benefit of the residual heat indicator?
It signals that the glass surface is still hot, helping prevent accidental burns after you have finished cooking.
Can I use the Combi Zone for small pots?
It is designed primarily for larger pans; for smaller pots, it is more efficient to use the individual zones.
Troubleshooting
Cooktop will not start
Verify the child lock is deactivated and check that your cookware is induction-compatible.
Uneven heating
Ensure the pan is centered on the cooking zone and the base is flat against the glass surface.
Control panel unresponsive
Clean the surface of any spills or moisture as the touch sensors can be sensitive to liquids.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This unit is designed for built-in installation within a standard 60 cm countertop space, requiring a cutout of approximately 56 cm by 49-50 cm. Ensure your worktop is at least 1.6 cm thick for secure mounting. Since this hob has a connected load of 7400 W, professional installation by a qualified electrician is strongly recommended to ensure your home electrical system is correctly wired. To care for the glass-ceramic surface, use a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth specifically designed for induction hobs to avoid scratching the white finish. Always ensure that the pans used have a magnetic base, as the induction technology will not function with glass, ceramic, or aluminum cookware.
