FAQs
What type of cookware is required for this induction cooker?
You must use cookware with a magnetic base. This includes cast iron, magnetic stainless steel, and some enamel cookware. Aluminum, copper, glass, and non-magnetic stainless steel will not work.
How do I clean the ceramic glass hob?
Allow the hob to cool completely. Wipe with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. For stubborn marks, use a non-abrasive ceramic hob cleaner. Avoid using scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
What is the purpose of the pan detection function?
The pan detection function ensures the cooker only heats up when a suitable pan is placed on the hob. This saves energy by preventing the unit from operating when empty or with non-compatible cookware.
How often should I clean the cooling fan filter?
It is recommended to clean the cooling fan filter regularly, ideally after every few uses or when it appears dusty, to maintain optimal performance and prevent overheating.
What is the temperature range and increment for this cooker?
The cooker offers 10 temperature levels, adjustable in 20°C increments, ranging from 60°C to 240°C.
Can I use this cooker for deep frying?
Yes, the precise temperature control and rapid heating make it suitable for tasks like deep frying, provided you use appropriate cookware and adhere to safety guidelines.
Troubleshooting
Cooker does not turn on.
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Check if the circuit breaker has tripped. Verify that compatible cookware is placed correctly on the hob.
Cooker displays an error code.
Refer to the user manual for specific error code meanings. Common codes may relate to pan detection or overheating. Ensure the pan is correctly positioned and the unit is not obstructed.
Heating is slow or inconsistent.
Check that the cookware is induction-compatible and its base is clean and flat. Ensure the correct power setting is selected. Clean the cooling fan filter if it appears blocked.
Unit overheats or shuts off unexpectedly.
Ensure the ventilation slots are clear and the cooling fan filter is clean. Avoid placing the unit too close to other heat sources or in confined spaces. Allow the unit to cool down before resuming use.
