FAQs

What type of cookware do I need for this induction hob?

You need cookware with a magnetic base. Test your pans by seeing if a magnet sticks to the bottom. Cast iron and most stainless steel pans are compatible.

How does the Area Flex feature work?

The Area Flex allows you to link two adjacent cooking zones together to create a larger cooking surface, ideal for larger pots, pans, or griddles.

Is the matt surface difficult to clean?

No, the scratch-resistant matt surface is designed for easy cleaning. A damp cloth and mild detergent are usually sufficient. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

How quickly does induction heating work?

Induction heating is very rapid. It heats the cookware directly, meaning water can boil significantly faster than on other types of hobs.

What is Insta Detect?

Insta Detect automatically senses when a compatible pan is placed on a zone and activates it, ensuring efficient and immediate heating without manual selection of the zone.

Can I use my old pans?

You can use your old pans if they have a magnetic base. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of your pan, it is likely compatible with this induction hob.

What is the warranty period for this hob?

Please refer to the product documentation or the retailer for specific warranty information, as warranty periods can vary.

Troubleshooting

Hob does not turn on

Ensure the hob is correctly plugged into a power source. Check if the circuit breaker has tripped. Verify that the correct control panel area is being touched to activate the hob.

Pan is not heating

Confirm that the pan is induction-compatible (magnetic base). Ensure the pan is centered correctly on the designated zone. Check that the correct zone and power level have been selected.

Error code displayed

Refer to the user manual for a specific explanation of the error code. Common codes may indicate issues with cookware, power supply, or internal faults. Try turning off the power at the mains for a minute and then turning it back on.

Surface has minor scratches

For light scratches, a ceramic hob polish may help to minimize their appearance. For deeper scratches, contact customer support. Regular cleaning with appropriate materials will help prevent future scratches.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This hob requires cookware with a magnetic base. To test if your existing pans are compatible, hold a magnet to the bottom; if it sticks firmly, the pan is suitable for induction use. Common compatible materials include cast iron and most stainless steel cookware.

Setup: Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician following the manufacturer's instructions and local regulations. Ensure adequate ventilation around the hob.

Care: Clean the hob after each use once it has cooled down. Use a damp cloth with a mild detergent or a specialized ceramic hob cleaner for tougher stains. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the surface. Wipe spills immediately to prevent them from hardening.
