Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Installation of this induction hob should be carried out by a qualified professional to ensure safety and compliance with electrical regulations. Ensure the hob is placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface with adequate ventilation. The unit requires a dedicated electrical connection.
Compatibility:
This induction 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 cookware is suitable for induction use. Common compatible materials include cast iron, enameled steel, and stainless steel with a magnetic layer.
Care and Cleaning:
- Always allow the hob to cool down completely before cleaning.
- Wipe the glass-ceramic surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
- For stubborn stains or burnt-on food, use a specialized ceramic hob cleaner and a scraper designed for glass-ceramic surfaces. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals that can damage the surface.
- Clean the control panel gently to avoid damaging the sensitive touch controls.
