FAQs
What type of cookware can I use?
You must use cookware designed for induction hobs. Look for a flat base and magnetic properties. A magnet should stick to the bottom of the pan.
How do I clean the hob?
Wipe the surface with a damp cloth after each use. For tougher stains, use a hob-specific cleaner.
What is the booster function?
The booster function provides a burst of high heat for fast boiling or searing.
How do I set the timer?
Select the cooking zone, then use the touch controls to set the desired cooking time. The hob will automatically switch off when the timer expires.
What does the residual heat indicator mean?
The indicator lights up when the hob surface is still hot after use. This warns you not to touch the surface until it cools down.
Can I use multiple zones at the same time?
Yes, the hob has four independent cooking zones, allowing you to cook multiple dishes simultaneously.
What is the child lock?
The child lock prevents children from accidentally turning on the hob or changing the settings during cooking.

Check the power connection, circuit breaker, and ensure the hob is correctly installed.
Cooking zones not heating.
