Induction use
-
Metal objects or objects containing metal, such as knives, forks, spoons, and lids, should not be placed on the hob surface, as they can get hot.
-
When the induction hob is in use, keep objects that are sensitive to magnetic fields (credit cards, bank cards, discs, watches and similar items) away from the hob. We advise anyone with a pacemaker to consult their cardiologist first.
-
Never use aluminium foil for cooking, and never place products packaged in aluminium on the hob. The aluminium would melt and irreparably damage your device.
Safe use
-
Do not keep objects that children might find interesting in cupboards above or behind the appliance.
-
Do not warm closed tins on the hob. There will be a build-up of pressure that will cause tins to explode. You might get injured or scalded.
-
Do not use the appliance in temperatures below 5 °C.
-
The appliance should not be placed or used outdoors.
-
When you use the hob for the first time, you will notice a “new smell”. Don’t worry, this is normal. If the kitchen is well ventilated, the smell will soon disappear.
-
Never open the casing of the appliance.
-
As soon as you remove the pan from the hob, the cooking process will stop automatically. Get into the habit of switching off the cooking zone or hob manually to avoid unintentionally switching on the appliance.
-
After use, switch off the hob element using the controls and don’t rely only on the pan detector.
-
Remember that if the hob is used in a high setting, the heating time will be very short. Do not leave the hob unattended if you are using a zone in a high setting.
Temperature safety induction zones
-
The hob is fitted with a cooling fan which cools the electronic components during cooking. The fan may operate for a while, even after the end of the cooking process.
-
The induction cooking hob is also fitted with an overheating protector which protects the electronic components from damage. The protector operates in several ways. When the cooking zone temperature gets very high, the cooking power is automatically reduced. If this does not suffice, the cooking zone power continues to decrease, until the safety mechanisms switch off the cooking zone completely. When the cooking hob is cooled down, its total power will be available again.
Cooking time limiter
If a cooking zone is switched on for an unusually long time, it will be switched off automatically.
Depending on the setting you have chosen, the cooking time will be limited as follows:
|
The cooking zone switches off automatically after: |
---|---|
1 and 2 |
9 hours |
3, 4 and 5 |
5 hours |
6, 7 and 8 |
4 hours |
9 |
3 hours |
10 |
2 hours |
11 and 12 |
1 hour |
The cooking-time limiter switches the cooking zones off if the time in the table has elapsed.

Use
Induction cooking
Induction cooking is fast
To start with, you will be surprised by the speed of induction cooking. Especially at higher settings, foods and liquids will come to a boil very rapidly. It is best not to leave pans unattended to avoid them boiling over or boiling dry. With induction cooking, there is no heat loss, and the handles stay cool.
The power level adjusts itself
In induction cooking, only the zone on which the pan is placed is used. If you use a small pan on a large zone, the zone will adjust the power to the pan's diameter. The power will thus be lower, and it will take longer before the food comes to a boil.
-
Grains of sand, salt, or sugar may cause scratches that are impossible to remove. Therefore, only put pans with a clean base on the cooking surface, and always pick pans up to move them.
-
Do not use the hob as a worktop.
-
Always keep the lid on the pan when cooking, in order to avoid energy loss.
Operation of the touch keys and sliders
-
The touch sensors only react to the light pressure of a fingertip. Do not operate the controls with any other objects.
-
The cooking hob is operated by a slider. You can either touch the selected part of the slider or move over the slider to increase or decrease the power.
-
To set the cooking zone power level, touch the desired spot on the slider. As you touch the slider, the selected power level will appear on the cooking zone display unit.
-
Do not use any objects to operate the slider.
Easy
The electronic controls are accurate and easy to set. On the lowest setting, you can melt chocolate directly in the pan, for example, or cook ingredients that you would normally heat in au bain-marie.
Fast
Thanks to the induction hob high power levels, bringing food to a boil is very quick.
Clean
The hob is easy to clean. Because the cooking zones do not get any hotter than the pans themselves, food spills are unlikely to burn into the glass.
Safe
The heat is generated in the pan itself. The glass top does not get any hotter than the pan. This means that the cooking zone is considerably cooler than a ceramic hob, for example.
Once a pan has been removed, the cooking zone cools down quickly.
Capacity distribution of cooking zones
Depending on the hob model, the cooking zones can affect each other. When several cooking zones are switched on simultaneously, the available capacity is shared automatically between them.
When the maximum capacity of the combination of cooking levels is reached during setting, one or more zones are automatically reduced to the highest possible setting at that moment. This is indicated by the flashing of the relevant control element.
Pans for induction cooking
Induction cooking requires a particular type of pan in terms of quality.
Pans that have already been used for cooking on a gas hob are no longer suitable for use on an induction hob.
Only use pans that are suitable for electric and induction cooking with:
-
a thick base of a minimum of 2.25 mm;
-
a flat base.
You can check for yourself whether your pans are suitable using a magnet. A pan is suitable if the base of the pan is sufficiently attracted by the magnet.
Suitable |
Unsuitable |
---|---|
Special stainless steel pans |
Earthenware |
Class Induction |
Stainless steel |
Solid enamelled pans |
Porcelain |
Enamelled cast-iron pans |
Copper |
Plastic |
|
Aluminium |
Please note!
Be careful with enamelled sheet-steel pans:
-
the enamel may chip (the enamel comes loose from the steel) if you switch the hob on at a high setting when the pan is (too) dry;
-
the base of the pan may warp - for example: Due to overheating;
-
heat enamelled pans slowly.
Never use pans with a misshapen base. A hollow or rounded base can interfere with the operation of the overheating protection, causing the appliance to become too hot. This may lead to the glass top cracking and the pan base melting. Damage caused by using unsuitable pans or boiling dry is excluded from the guarantee.
The diameter of the pan
The diameter of the bottom of the pan must be at least the value prescribed in below table.
Cooking zone |
Minimum pan bottom diameter |
---|---|
ø 180 mm |
ø 110 mm |
ø 210 mm |
ø 145 mm |
190 x 210 mm |
ø 145 mm |
ø 260 mm |
ø 145 mm |
You will achieve the best results by using a pan with the same diameter as the zone. If a pan is too small, the zone will not work.
Pressure cookers
Induction cooking is very suitable for pressure cookers. The fast-reacting cooking zone brings the pressure cooker to pressure quickly. As soon as you switch off a cooking zone, the dish stops cooking immediately.
Pan detection
The hob automatically detects whether a suitable pot is on a cooking zone. If the hob is empty, the cooking zone is selected for the first pot placed and the cooking zone display lights up automatically. If there are further pots, the cooking zone display must then be selected manually.
Integrated pan recognition
If a certain power level is set for a cooking zone and there is no (suitable) pan on the cooking zone, the cooking zone will not deliver any power. After a certain period, the cooking zone will switch off automatically.
Induction sounds
-
Ticking sound
This sound can be caused at lower power level settings or by the automatic pot detection.
-
Pan makes sounds
Pans can make some noise during cooking. This is caused by the energy flowing from the hob to the pan. At high settings, this is perfectly normal for some pans. It will not damage either the pans or the hob.
-
Ventilator makes sounds
To increase the lifespan and performance of the electronics, the appliance is equipped with fans. During intense appliance use, the fan is activated to cool down the appliance, and you will hear a buzzing sound. The fan still runs for several minutes after the hob has been switched off.
Dynamic Slide
The slider has more elements than, for example, cooking levels need to be displayed. As a result, the slider can be used in different positions. When controlling the leftmost cooking zone(s), the left 12 elements are in use, while the remaining elements are not visible. When controlling the middle cooking zone(s), the inner 12 elements are in use, and when controlling the rightmost one, the 12 elements are counted from the right. If the dynamic slider is switched off (see chapter ‘Settings’), all cooking zones are controlled using only the inner 12 elements (central slider).
The slider is also used to set the extraction or lighting of a paired extractor hood. When the extractor is selected, the inner 4/5 elements are used as the slider for the extractor.
The slider can also be used to set the timer. Slide from the left to the right to set a time. Swiping across the slider can be used to speed up the setting in some cases.
Cooking settings
Because the settings depend on the quantity and composition of the pan and its contents, the table below is intended as a guideline only.

Maintenance
Cleaning glass top
After each use, wait for the glass ceramic surface to cool down and clean it. Otherwise, all remaining impurities will burn onto the hot surface the next time you use the hob.
For regular maintenance of the glass ceramic hob, use special care products that create a protective film on the surface to prevent the dirt from sticking onto it.
Before each use of the glass ceramic surface, wipe off the dust or any other impurities that could scratch the surface, from both the hob and the pan bottom.
Steel wool, coarse cleaning sponges, and abrasive powders may scratch the surface. The surface may also be damaged by aggressive spray cleaners and unsuitable liquid cleaners. |
Signage may be worn when using aggressive or abrasive cleaners or cookware with coarse or damaged bottom.
Use a damp soft cloth to remove minor impurities. Then, wipe the surface dry.
Remove water stains with a mild solution of vinegar. However, do not use this solution to wipe the frame (only with some models) as it may lose its sheen. Do not use aggressive spray cleaners or descaling agents.
Use special glass ceramic cleaners for stubborn dirt. Observe the manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to thoroughly remove any cleaner residues after the cleaning process as they may damage the glass ceramic surface when the cooking zones heat up.
Remove stubborn and burnt residues with a scraper. Be careful when handling the scraper to prevent injury.
Immediately remove any sugar or sugar-laden food from the glass ceramic hob using a scraper, even if the hob is still hot, as sugar may permanently damage the glass ceramic surface.
The scraper is not included in appliance equipment. |
Only use the scraper when dirt cannot be removed with a wet cloth or special cleaners for glass ceramic surfaces.
Hold the scraper at the correct angle (45° to 60°). Gently press the scraper against the glass and slide it over the signage to remove the dirt. Make sure the plastic handle of the scraper (in some models) does not come into contact with a hot cooking zone.
Tip!
Activate the child lock before cleaning the hob.
Daily cleaning
-
Although food spills cannot burn into the glass, we nevertheless recommend you clean the hob immediately after use.
-
For daily cleaning, a damp cloth with a mild cleaning agent is best.
-
Dry off with kitchen paper or a dry tea towel.
Stubborn stains
-
Stubborn stains can also be removed with a mild cleaning agent, washing-up liquid, for example.
-
Remove water circles and limescale with cleaning vinegar.
-
Traces of metals (caused by sliding pans) can be difficult to remove. Special products are available for this.
-
Use a glass scraper to remove food spills. Melted plastic and sugar are also best removed with a glass scraper.
Please note!
-
Never use abrasives. These leave scratches in which dirt and limescale can accumulate.
-
Never use anything sharp such as steel wool or scourers.
Please note!
Consult the website for additional maintenance and cleaning instructions!

Power limiter
See chapter ‘Settings’, under Con - power limiter to set the parameter. This parameter must be set before placing a pan on the hob or activating a cooking zone.
Con - Current limiter
If your electrical wiring or circuit breakers do not meet the specified current draw on the rating plate, the current limiter can be activated by reducing the value of this setting. Doing so will cause a reduced performance of the induction hob.
The following numbering format of the setting is available: X.XX. The number left of the dot represents the number of connected phases, while the number right of the dot represents the electrical current per phase in Ampere.
While no pans are on any zone, touch any slider with two fingers and keep it pressed for 3 seconds. Different settings can now be toggled by using the slider. Select 'Con' and touch the slider for 3 seconds. Select the correct current limit value and touch the slider again for 3 seconds to confirm the setting.
To prevent unintentional adjustment of the 'Con - connected power', Con setting must be confirmed when changed by touching the slider for 3 seconds. A change without confirmation will not be implemented!
Setting the power limiter should only be carried out by a registered and qualified installer. Please read the safety regulations and the installation instructions carefully.
Some automatic cooking functions are disabled if the appliance power limiter is set to a lower value. Refer to the table below.
