FAQs
Can I use aluminum or copper pans?
Only if the base contains a magnetic layer. If a magnet does not stick to the bottom of the pan, the induction hob will not recognize it.
Is the surface difficult to clean?
The glass surface is flat and smooth, making it much easier to clean than traditional hobs. Simply wipe with a damp cloth after the surface has cooled.
What happens if I spill water on the controls?
The unit features overflow protection, which typically causes the hob to switch off if liquid is detected on the control panel to prevent damage.
Does the hob get hot?
The heat is generated in the pan, but the glass can get warm due to heat transfer from the cookware. Use caution until the residual heat indicator clears.
Is a timer included?
Yes, the hob includes an electronic timer to help you manage cooking durations for each zone.
Troubleshooting
Hob will not turn on
Verify the unit is connected to the power source and check if the child lock is active.
Pan not heating
Ensure the cookware is induction-compatible (magnetic) and centered correctly within the cooking zone.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation: This unit requires a cutout width of 56 cm and should be installed according to local electrical codes by a qualified professional. Ensure the surface is level and properly ventilated underneath.
Compatibility: Induction hobs only work with magnetic-based cookware (cast iron, magnetic stainless steel). To test your existing pans, use a magnet on the base; if it sticks firmly, the pan is compatible.
Care: The glass surface is durable but susceptible to scratches. Avoid sliding heavy pans across the surface. For daily maintenance, wait for the residual heat indicator to turn off, then use a damp cloth and non-abrasive glass cleaner to remove spills immediately.
