FAQs
Does this hob require special electrical wiring?
No, it is designed for use with a standard 13A household plug.
Can I use any type of pot on this hob?
No, you must use induction-compatible cookware, typically made of cast iron or magnetic stainless steel.
Is the surface of the hob hot to the touch?
While the induction process heats the pan, the glass surface may become warm due to residual heat transferred from the cookware.
Can this be used for continuous commercial cooking?
This unit is designed for light-duty use. It is not intended for high-volume, 24/7 commercial production.
How do I clean the induction surface?
Use a soft, damp cloth and a gentle cleaning solution once the surface has fully cooled.
Troubleshooting
Unit does not turn on when plugged in
Check that the power outlet is active and that the plug is firmly inserted. Ensure the hob is not in 'Lock' mode.
The hob is not heating the pan
Verify that your cookware is induction-compatible. Induction hobs will not activate if the pot base is non-magnetic or too small for the zone.
Unit shuts off unexpectedly during use
The thermal safety sensor may have triggered due to blocked vents. Clear any obstructions and let the unit cool for 10 minutes before restarting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Simply place the unit on a flat, stable, and heat-resistant surface. Ensure there is at least 4 inches of clearance around the ventilation vents to prevent overheating. Plug the unit into a standard 13A grounded outlet.
Compatibility: This hob requires induction-compatible cookware. If a magnet sticks firmly to the bottom of your pot or pan, it is suitable for use. Avoid using glass, ceramic, or aluminum cookware.
Care: Always allow the unit to cool completely before cleaning. Use a damp microfiber cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner to wipe the glass surface. Do not submerge the unit in water or use harsh scouring pads that may scratch the finish.
