Touch ControlsThe touch controls for your induction have been designed to provide you with finger tip control of your hob, providing accurate and repeatable power settings for cooking and an easy clean surface that can be easily wiped over.

When a cook zone is activated the power setting is displayed for each zone individually.

Each cooking zone has its own individual slider control

Using the Touch ControlsThe cook zone and timer displays function as the touch controls, To select a cook zone or the timer, simply touch the display area, use the flat of your finger, not the tip, The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure.

Once you have selected the cook zone or the timer, you have 10 seconds to set it (while the red LED at the bottom right of the display is on). If the red LED goes out before you have made and adjustment, simply re-select the cook zone or timer by touching the display again.

Caution: Always ensure that induction pans remain within the marked cooking area when hot. Do not allow hob pans to rest on the user control panel at the front of the hob glass, as this will cause the controls to overheat and the appliance to temporarily shut down.

• Always ensure that pan bases are dry before using them on the hob.• Not all induction pans are of the same quality due to their construction. Pans that use enamelled/

laminated/ encapsulated bases can be difficult to detect, especially small pans.• The safety temperature control of the pans is only possible with quality flat bottomed pans suitable

for induction cooking; Poor quality pans can create air gaps between the glass and the pan, which affects the accuracy of the temperature control.

Overheat pan protectionThe hob is equipped with additional safety systems that help to prevent cookware from overheating, providing an additional level of safety not available on conventional hobs such as gas and ceramic hobs
