Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation: This unit must be installed by a qualified electrician. It requires a dedicated circuit capable of handling the 7400W load. Ensure the countertop cutout dimensions are precisely 55.5 cm by 47.8-49 cm for a flush fit.
Compatibility: This hob requires induction-compatible cookware (magnetic base). It supports pans with diameters ranging from 90 mm to 210 mm.
Care: The Eclipse glass surface should be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid using steel wool or harsh chemicals. Wipe spills immediately using a damp cloth after the surface has cooled, particularly for sugary spills which can permanently etch the glass if allowed to harden.
