A Word on Induction Cooking

Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking

technology. It works by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat directly in the

pan, rather than indirectly through heating the glass surface. The glass becomes

hot only because the pan eventually warms it up.

Before using your New Cooktop

• Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.

•

Remove any protective film that may still be on your ceramic cooktop.

•

Remove any protective film that may still be on your Induction cooktop.

Using the Touch Controls

• The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure.

•

Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.

•

You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.

• Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is no object

(e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may

make the controls difficult to operate.

Choosing the right Cookware

•

Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for

the induction symbol on the packaging or on the bottom of the pan.

•

You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a

magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is

attracted, the pan is suitable for induction.

•

If you do not have a magnet:

1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.

2. Follow the steps under ‘To start cooking’.

3. If does not flash in the display and the water is

heating, the pan is suitable.

• Cookware made by the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless

steel, aluminum or copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain,

ceramic, and earthenware.

Cooking Guidelines

Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if

you’re using Boost. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite

spontaneously and this presents a serious fire risk.

Cooking Tips

•

When food comes to the boil, reduce the power setting.

• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.

•

Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.

•

Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has

heated through.

Simmering, cooking rice

•

Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85˚C, when bubbles are just

rising occasionally to the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key to

delicious soups and tender stews because the flavours develop without

overcooking the food. You should also cook egg-based and flourthickened

sauces below boiling point.

• Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a

setting higher than the lowest setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in

the time recommended.

Searing steak

To cook juicy flavoursome steaks:

1.Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.

- 19 -

2.Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.

3.Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot

pan and then lower the meat onto the hot pan.

4.Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend

on the thickness of the steak and how cooked you want it. Times may vary from

about 2 – 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is – the

firmer it feels the more ‘well done’ it will be.

5.Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax

and become tender before serving.

For stir-frying

1.Choose a ceramic compatible flat-based wok or a large frying pan.

2.Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be quick. If

cooking large quantities, cook the food in several smaller batches.

3.Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.

4.Cook any meats first, put it inside and keep warm.

5.Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooking zone

to a lower setting, return the meat to the pan and add your sauce.

6.Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.

7.Serve immediately.

Installation

Warning: To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface

units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided.

If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range

hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the

cabinets.

Minimum spacings drawings (Generally requirement):

A = 30 inches minimum clearance between the top of the cooking surface and

the bottom of an unprotected wood or metal cabinet; or A = 24 inches minimum

when bottom of wood or metal cabinet is protected by not less than

1/4-inch-thick flame-retardant millboard covered with not less than No. 28 MSG

sheet steel, 1/64-inch-thick stainless steel, 1/32-inch-thick aluminum, or

1/32-inch-thick copper.

Selection of installation equipment

•

Cut out the work surface according to the sizes shown in the drawing.

• For the purpose of installation and use, a minimum of 1-31/32 in space shall

be preserved around the hole.

•

Be sure the thickness of the work surface is at least 1-3/16 in. Please select

heat-resistant work surface material to avoid larger deformation caused by

the heat radiation from the hotplate. As shown below: The work surface

material must use the impregnated wood or other insulation material.

• Ensure the table supporting the surface unit on the metal frame edge,

see below right drawing.

Before you install the cooktop, make sure that

• The work surface is square and level, and no structural members interfere

with space requirements.

• The work surface is made of a heat-resistant material.

• If the cooktop is installed above an oven, the oven has a built-in cooling fan.

•

The installation will comply with all clearance requirements and applicable

standards and regulations.

• A suitable isolating switch providing full disconnection from the mains power

supply is incorporated in the permanent wiring, mounted and positioned to

comply with the local wiring rules and regulations.

• The isolating switch must be of an approved type and provide a 0.12in air

gap contact separation in all poles (or in all active [phase] conductors if the

local wiring rules allow for this variation of the requirements).

• The isolating switch will be easily accessible to the customer with the

cooktop installed.

• You consult local building authorities and by-laws if in doubt regarding

installation.

• You use heat-resistant and easy-to-clean finishes (such as ceramic tiles) for

the wall surfaces surrounding the cooktop.

When you have installed the cooktop, make sure that

• The power supply cable is not accessible through cupboard doors or

drawers.

• There is adequate flow of air from outside the cabinetry to the base of the

cooktop.

•

If the cooktop is installed above a drawer or cupboard space, a thermal

protection barrier is installed below the base of the cooktop.

• The isolating switch is easily accessible by the customer.
