FAQs

How do I clean the Elica NikolaTesla One RC hob?

Wipe the glass surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent after each use. Remove and clean the grease filters regularly. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning the odor filters.

What type of cookware can I use?

You must use induction-compatible cookware. This usually includes steel or iron-based cookware. Test with a magnet to ensure compatibility.

How often do I need to replace the filters?

The grease filters should be cleaned regularly based on usage (as indicated by the maintenance alarm). The odor filters are designed to last for 3 to 5 years, depending on use.

How do I reset the maintenance alarm?

Refer to the user manual for instructions on resetting the maintenance alarm after cleaning or replacing filters.

Can I use the hob if the extraction system isn't working?

While the hob will still function as an induction cooktop, the primary benefit of the product will be lost. We recommend checking the extraction system immediately.

What is the Delay Switch Off feature?

The Delay Switch Off feature keeps the hood running for a set period after you finish cooking to remove any lingering odors and humidity.

What should I do if the hob is making unusual noises?

Ensure nothing is interfering with the fan. If the noise persists, consult the user manual for troubleshooting or contact customer support.
