FAQs

No, this induction hob requires a hardwired connection to the mains supply by a qualified electrician.
Can I use non-stick pans on this hob?

What does the B energy efficiency rating mean?
It indicates a high level of efficiency for an induction hob, ensuring effective heat transfer with minimal energy waste.
How do I clean the glass surface?
Use a specialized glass-ceramic hob cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth once the hob has fully cooled.
What is the benefit of flexInduction Plus?
It allows you to merge smaller zones into one large zone, perfect for griddles, long fish kettles, or oversized pots.
Troubleshooting
The hob does not recognize my cookware.
Verify that the cookware has a magnetic base and is centered correctly within the cooking zone.
The controls are unresponsive.
Ensure the touch interface is clean and dry. Moisture or debris on the control panel can interfere with the sensor's operation.
The unit makes a buzzing or clicking noise.
High-power settings can cause a faint vibration in some cookware; this is normal induction behavior and not a fault.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Siemens iQ700 must be performed by a qualified professional due to the hardwired electrical requirements. Before use, ensure all your pots and pans have a magnetic base; if a magnet sticks to the bottom of your cookware, it is induction-ready. To maintain the glass surface, avoid dragging heavy cast iron pans across the hob to prevent scratching. Always clean the surface once the residual heat indicators have turned off, using a soft cloth and a dedicated glass-ceramic cleaner to remove any food debris. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
