FAQs
Does this induction hob work with all types of pans?
No, it only works with induction-compatible cookware. You can test your pans by checking if a magnet sticks to the bottom.
Is professional installation required?
Yes, due to the 16A electrical requirement, we highly recommend a qualified electrician install the unit.
Can I use both zones at maximum power simultaneously?
The hob is designed to balance power usage effectively, though maximum performance is best achieved by managing the power levels of both zones based on your circuit capacity.
How do I activate the child safety lock?
Refer to the user manual for the specific button combination, which is typically a long press on the dedicated lock icon.
What should I do if the glass surface gets scratched?
Minor surface scuffs are aesthetic and usually do not impact performance, but avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent further damage.
Troubleshooting
The hob does not heat up after being turned on.
Ensure that the cookware being used is induction-compatible and centered properly on the zone.
The unit shuts off automatically during use.
This is likely the automatic safety feature triggered by overheating or liquid overflow; clear any spills and let the unit cool down before restarting.
Touch controls are unresponsive.
Check if the child safety lock is enabled or if there is moisture or dirt on the control panel surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with the 16A power requirement and 220-240V/50Hz specifications. The unit requires a cutout dimension of 270x490mm in your countertop. Ensure your cookware is induction-compatible—if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pan, it will work on this hob. For care, keep the glass surface pristine by wiping it down with a damp cloth after every use. For tougher spills, a mild glass-ceramic cleaner and a non-abrasive pad are recommended. Avoid using harsh chemicals or steel wool to prevent scratching the finish.
