Safety  
Keep children away from the vicinity of the hob  
when you are cooking.  
Use pans with a flat base which are stable in use,  
and avoid using any old misshapen pans or any pan  
which is unstable when placed on a flat surface.  
Never leave fat or oil unattended on an active cook  
zone. Don’t leave pans on the hob when you are  
not around - remove them or turn the cook zones  
off (even if only for a moment)  
This appliance is not intended for use by persons  
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory  
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and  
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision  
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a  
person responsible for their safety.  
Children should be supervised to ensure that they  
do not play with the appliance  
Keep all flammable materials away from the hob.  
Ensure electrical leads do not trail over or go near  
the hob.  
Do not place aluminium foil or plastic utensils on hot  
surfaces.  
Turn pan handles to a safe position, so they are out  
of reach of children, not overhanging the appliance  
and cannot be caught accidentally.  
Commercial simmering aids should not be used as  
they create excessive temperatures that can dam-  
age the surface and may cause a hazard.  
Caution: Do not use the hob if the glass is cracked,  
as electrical parts are directly beneath. To avoid the  
possibility of electric shock, turn off the electricity  
supply to the hob at the socket and arrange a  
Service call.  
WARNING: If you use a griddle plate, ensure that  
it is completely cool before attempting to lift it from  
the hob as residual heat may cause burns. Always  
use oven gloves to protect your hands.  
Do not allow yourself to be distracted whilst  
cooking.  
When you have finished cooking check that all  
controls are in the off position.

Safety Advice  
Smoke alarm - buy a smoke alarm fitted with a ‘hush  
button’ which can silence the alarm instantly should it  
activate accidentally & does not necessitate the removal  
of the battery (except to change for a new one).  
Fire Blanket - consider having a fire blanket in your  
kitchen, mounted on the wall where you can get to it  
easily & quickly.  
Deep-fat Frying - never fill a chip pan (or other deep-  
fat fryer) more than one-third full of oil. If you do have  
a chip pan fire:  
1) call 999 immediately  
2) never move the pan  
3) turn off the heat but only if it is safe do so  
4) never use water on a chip pan fire as this will create  
a fireball.  
Kitchen Fire - if you have a fire in the kitchen, do not  
take risks - get everybody out of the house & call 999.  
If a pan catches fire:  
1) do not move it - it is likely to be very hot  
2) turn off the heat but only if safe to do so & never  
lean over a pan to reach the controls  
3) if you have a fire blanket, put it over the pan  
4) do not use a fire extinguisher on a pan of oil - the  
force of the extinguisher can spread the fire  
5) if you have managed to extinguish the fire, allow the  
pan to cool completely.  
Electrical Fire - if you have an electrical fire in the  
kitchen, do not take risks - get everybody out of the  
house & call 999 :  
1) pull the plug out or switch off the power at the fuse  
box - this may be enough to extinguish the fire immedi-  
ately  
2) smother the fire with a fire blanket or use a dry pow-  
der or carbon dioxide extinguisher  
30 remember: never use water on an electrical fire.

Safety & Induction  
Detection of an object or a pan on the heating  
zone  
A small object - such as a fork, a spoon or even a ring  
- placed on a hob cooking zone on its own is not  
detected as a pan.  
The security system acts in the same way when it  
detects a pan which is not suitable for use on an  
induction hob.  
If you are fitted with a pacemaker or an active  
implant  
The functions of the hob comply with the applicable  
standards on electromagnetic interference  
Your induction cooking hob thus complies fully with  
the statutory requirements (Directive 89/336/EEC). It  
is designed to not interfere with the functioning of  
other electrical equipment as long as these also comply  
with the same regulations.  
Your induction hob generates magnetic fields in its  
immediate vicinity.  
So that there is no interference between your cooking  
hob and a pacemaker, the pacemaker must be  
designed in compliance with the appropriate regula-  
tions.  
In this respect we can only guarantee the compliance  
of our own product. You can ask the manufacturer or  
your doctor about the compliance or any incompatibili-  
ties of your pacemaker.

USING THE INDUCTION HOB  
About the induction hob  
The induction hob provides the most  
energy efficeint hob technology avail-  
able.  
The induction system provides superior  
heat up and cool down times for pans  
- you get fast, precise, repeatable  
power control.  
As induction only heats up the pan,  
there is no lost heat from the cooking  
process, which in turn, limits the heat  
generated in the kitchen.  
Auto Power Tuning  
Induction hobs have a unique power  
tuning systems that automatically tunes  
the power to the size of the pan base  
this ensures energy isn’t wasted.

USING THE INDUCTION HOB  
Power Boost  
Note The Power Boost function will  
only operate for a limited time and  
is also under thermal control. This  
means the power boost will deac-  
tivate automatically if the product  
is hot, to protect the internal elec-  
tronic components of the hob and  
to prevent the cookware from over-  
heating.  
Rev up your hob with this feature, tem-  
porarily boost the power to a cook  
zone by a massive 60%.  
The power boost is a function that can  
be used to temporally boost the nor-  
mal maximum power for a cook zone  
by borrowing the available power  
from a “paired zone”.  
The Power Boost is activated by rotat-  
ing the control knob clockwise past  
power setting 9 and holding for a cou-  
ple of seconds until  
lights up in the  
display area. Power Boost is now acti-  
vated.  
The hob is split into “two paired  
areas”.  
LH Area (LHF and LHR Cook Zone)  
and RH Area (RHF and RHR Cook  
Zone).  
Only one cook zone per area can be  
boosted at anyone time.

When a zone has been activated but  
no pan has been placed on the cook  
zone, this means the hob only uses  
power when a suitable pan is placed  
on the zone, this reduces the energy  
used during the cooking process, i.e.  
when you take your pan off the zone  
the hob automatically reduces the  
power, and only switches back on  
when you replace the pan.

Note  
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.  
Auto Stand-by (holiday shutdown)  
Have you ever gone holiday & won-  
dered if you have switched the hob off?  
Note If the  
symbol does not disap-  
pear when a pan is placed on the  
zone it indicates that the pan is not  
suitable for induction cooking.  
Get a magnet to check the pans.

Residual Heat indicators  
If when the cook zone is switched off  
the glass surface is above 60˚C , H  
will be displayed in the cook zone  
display until the glass surface drops  
below approx 55˚C.  
This feature not only warns you  
against hot surfaces but also indi-  
cates that there is residual heat which  
can be used as temporary warm  
zone.  
Note - The cook zone itself does not  
heat up, but the ceramic glass does  
get hot because of the hot pan con-  
ducting heat back onto the hob glass.

USING THE INDUCTION HOB  
Cookware for induction hobs  
Cookware for induction cooking  
zones must be made of metal and  
have magnetic properties. The base  
must also be the correct diameter.  
Suitable Cookware for Induction Hobs Unsuitable Cookware  
Enameled steel pots with a thick base  
Pots made of copper,  
Cast Iron pots with an enameled base  
stainless steel, aluminium,  
oven-proof glass, wood  
ceramic and terracotta  
Pots made of multilayer stainless steel,

Pans marked for use with induction  
How to establish the suitability  
of a pan  
Check your pans with a magnet. If it  
sticks and it’s the correct diameter, it’s  
suitable for use with induction. Also  
with pans that bear the symbol for suit-  
ability for cooking with induction.  
Note - when using certain pans, you  
may get various noises from the pans.  
This is due to the design of the pans  
and does not effect the performance or  
safety of the hob.  
13  
 
Care Of Pans  
Looking after your pans  
Stainless steel pans  
Stainless steel pans should be cleaned with a soft cloth  
and soapy water.  
Appearance of white marks:  
Cause: salt added to cold water.  
Solution: add salt when the water boils.  
Appearance of specks:  
Cause: hard water.  
Solution: boil diluted vinegar in the pan, then rinse and  
dry.  
Burned food stuck to the bottom of the pan:  
Cause: temperature too high.  
Solution: leave the pan to soak, or boil soapy water in it  
(1 part washing-up liquid to 10 parts of water).  
Cast iron pans  
Cast iron pans should only be cleaned with a sponge or  
nylon brush or a non-abrasive washing-up product.  
Wipe with a little vinegar to regain the pan’s shine.  
This also works for colour-enamelled cast iron. For  
“matt black” items, use vinegar instead of bleach, then  
oil carefully and wipe with kitchen roll.  
14  
 
Cooking On Induction Hobs  
Do not leave an empty pan on a heating zone.  
Pans should be placed in the centre of the heating  
zone.  
Never heat up a sealed tin of food, as it may  
explode.  
When you use a pan with a non-stick coating (eg;  
Teflon) with little or no fat, heat the pan first for a  
moment on setting 6 or 7.  
We recommend that you do not put metal cooking  
utensils, cutlery, knives or other metal objects on  
the hob, as they could become hot if they are near  
a cooking area which is in use.  
It is perfectly possible to use a pan with a smaller  
diameter than that of the ring marked on the vitro-  
ceramic glass; there will be no loss of energy as is  
the case with conventional cookers (electricity and  
gas).  
Do not use the hotplate  
!
surface for storage, as a  
chopping board or work  
surface. This may dam-  
age the glass or cause it  
to shatter without warning  
due to small chips in the  
glass.  
Always switch off the  
appliance after use. Do  
not use the pan detector  
(if fitted) as a method of  
switching off the appli-  
ance.  
!
Nothing should ever be left lying on the hob.  
Lift pans onto and off the hob, rather than sliding  
them across the surface, to avoid marks and  
scratches.  
As soon as the water boils, turn the cooking zones  
down to a lower setting; this will help prevent pans  
boiling over.  
As pans are on a smooth surface, they will move  
easily if knocked accidentally; turning pan handles  
so they are not overhanging the edge of the hob,  
will help prevent this happening and keep them out  
of the reach of children.  
Be careful when cooking foods in salted water, or  
foods containing large amounts of sugar or syrup, if  
they are spilt onto hot areas of the hob they may  
damage the glass.  
Wipe any spillage as soon as possible.  
Use pans which are large enough to avoid overflows  
onto the vitro-ceramic glass hob surface.  
15  
 
Cooking Tips  
Green vegetables (spinach, broccoli, sorrel, etc) or  
vegetables rich in sulphur compounds (cabbage,  
onions, etc) should be cooked without a lid in plenty  
of boiling water; they will cook more quickly, and  
will keep their green colour (some vegetables only),  
vitamin and minerals content.  
Pasta, rice, cereals, etc absorb water during cooking  
and increase in volume; cook them in plenty of boil-  
ing salted water in order to dilute the starch they  
contain.  
Make sure you use a sufficiently large pan to avoid  
boiling over; the temperature setting may need to  
be reduced to maintain a simmer.  
Mushrooms should be poached in a small quantity  
of boiling water, with salt, butter and lemon juice.  
When liquids boil, reduce the control setting to main-  
tain a simmer.  
Vegetables will cook quicker if chopped in smaller  
pieces.  
Aluminium foil  
When cooking, never use kitchen foil and never put  
items wrapped in kitchen foil straight onto the hob.  
The aluminium kitchen foil may melt and do irreparable  
damage to your appliance.  
16  
 
Care & Cleaning  
Some cooking operations generate a considerable  
Always allow the hob to  
amount of grease. This, combined with spillage, can  
become a hazard if allowed to accumulate on the hob  
through lack of cleaning. In extreme cases this may  
amount to misuse of the appliance and could invalidate  
your guarantee.  
Do not use caustic pastes, abrasive cleaning powders,  
coarse wire wool or any hard implements, as they will  
damage the surfaces.  
!
cool before cleaning.  
Always: switch off the  
electricity supply  
before cleaning this  
appliance.  
Caution: Any cleaning  
agent used incorrectly  
may damage the hob.  
Do not use soap filled pads, metal wire, bleaches, bath  
stain removers, or chemical oven cleaners; all these  
product types will damage the ceramic glass.  
All parts of the hob can be safely cleaned with a cloth  
wrung out in hot soapy water.  
Do not use steam clean-  
ers on any part of this  
appliance.  
i
The following recommendations will help to keep the  
ceramic glass surface bright and clean:  
Use a dampened paper towel or clean damp cloth  
to apply a small dab of cleaner conditioner to clean  
each heating area.  
Use another paper towel or a clean dry soft cloth to  
wipe dry, and then polish the whole glass surface.  
To remove any stubborn marks or heavy soiling, a  
non scratching, mild cream cleaner may be used.  
Alternatively, a “ceramic hob scraper” may be used.  
Important: If you use a wet paper towel or clean damp  
cloth to remove spillage from a warm heating area of the  
hob, be careful to avoid steam burns.  
17  
 
Care & Cleaning  
Care and maintenance  
Before using the hob for the first time, apply a thin coat-  
ing of cleaner conditioner to the ceramic glass, and polish  
the surface with a clean cloth.  
The conditioner gives a protective covering to the  
ceramic glass which not only makes the hob easier to  
clean, but also ensures that you will gain maximum life  
out of this product. Occasional use will help prevent the  
build up of mineral deposits which can cause discoloura-  
tion of the hob surface.  
Discolouration of the hob  
Do not use a dishcloth or dish sponge to wipe the hob  
- this can leave a film of detergent on the surface which  
will discolour the hob next time a heating area is used.  
Clean cloths kept for the cleaning of the hob can be  
used.  
Do not use too much cleaner conditioner - only a thin  
coating is required, any excess may burn on and dis-  
colour the hob when it is next in use.  
If persistent stains or marks remain on the ceramic  
glass surface, it can be cleaned using a mild cream  
cleaner or a ceramic hob scraper. This will also remove  
any accumulated salts or minerals before they have an  
opportunity to discolour the ceramic glass.  
Wipe clean with a damp paper towel or clean damp  
cloth and re-apply cleaner conditioner.

Troubleshooting  
The hob produces a smell the first few times it is used  
• Heat a pan full of water on each zone for half an hour.  
Pans make a noise during cooking!!  
• This is caused by vibration due to the passage of energy from the hob to the pan.  
On a high setting this is quite normal for certain types of saucepan. It will not damage  
the hob.  
The hob makes a slight clicking sound  
• This is caused by the distribution of power between two heating zones on the  
same side of the hob.  
The top of the hob is always warm (even when not in use)  
• The electronic part of the hob, like any other electronic equipment (TV, transformer,  
etc), becomes warm.  
The fan keeps working for a few minutes after the hob has been turned off  
• To cool down the electronics.  
The hob won’t work. The indicators don't come on  
• The electricity supply is not reaching the appliance (faulty supply or connection);  
Check the fuses and the cut-out switch.  
• The electronic circuit is not working properly;  
Call Stoves Customer Support, or your supplier.  
When it is turned on, the appliance cuts out  
• The hob connection is faulty.  
Check the connection and check that the connection complies with the appropriate  
standards.

Installation Instructions  
General information  
Installation should only be carried out by a qualified  
installer or engineer.  
We recommend that you  
install this appliance in a  
work top which is a mini-  
mum 38mm deep.  
The hob can be fitted into  
a work top less than  
38mm deep, but the  
9mm gap between hob  
base and appliance must  
be maintained.  
!
Please keep to the following points most carefully;  
The hob should not be fitted above a washing  
machine, a fridge or a freezer.  
Wall surfaces above the work surface and in the  
immediate vicinity of the cooking hob must be heat  
resistant.  
Laminated surfaces and the adhesive used for fixing  
them must be heat resistant in order to avoid any  
damage.  
The space for air circulation, located underneath and  
at the back of the hob improves its reliability by  
ensuring that it will cool down, efficiently.  
For installations in the Republic of Ireland, refer to  
National Regulations applicable to this product.  
Choosing your installation  
1. Over a unit with a door or drawer.  
2. Above an oven.  
Induction hob  
Make sure that the air inlets through the ventilator grids  
underneath the hob are never blocked.  
Installing the hob over a unit with a drawer or  
door  
Air outlet is underneath work surface.  
If necessary, remove the front crosspiece of the unit.  
Suitable protection to prevent obstruction of the air inlet  
to the fans must be provided.

Installation Instructions  
Installation advice - cabinetry  
Dealing with sides, cross-rails and back-panels  
in cabinetry  
Depending on the cabinets, the worktop thickness and  
the hob positioning, it is possible for the hob base  
and/or the clamp brackets to interfere with parts of  
the cabinet. These can be dealt with as follows:  
Cabinet sides  
If the hob is to be installed across the top of two cabi-  
net housing units, then the base of the hob may inter-  
fere with the sides of these units. It will be necessary  
to cut away the top of the unit sides locally to clear  
the hob and/or the clamp brackets.  
Cross-rails  
1. Interference with hob base  
If there are any cross-rails which obstruct the hob  
base by running across the worktop cutout, they  
can simply be removed or locally cut-away to allow  
the hob to be installed, depending on the particu-  
lar installation. Any modifications must ensure  
that the strength of the cabinet is maintained.  
2. Interference with clamp brackets  
If there are any cross-rails which prevent the  
clamps from being positioned on the front or rear  
edges of the hob, then they can be removed or  
locally cut-away around the brackets to allow the  
brackets to be installed. Any modifications must  
ensure that the strength of the cabinet is main-  
tained.  
Back-panel  
If the cabinet has a back-panel which prevents the  
clamps from being positioned on the rear edge of the  
hob, then this panel can be completely removed or  
locally cut-away to allow the brackets to be installed.  
21  
 
Installation Instructions  
50mm  
Installation above an oven  
Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for clearances  
above the oven.  
We recommend a 9mm gap between the bottom of the  
hob and appliance, should the work surface be less than  
38mm deep.

Due to the excessive temperatures attained during pyroly-  
sis, using the hob at the same time may cause the thermal  
safety device within the hob to operate.  
Clearances and dimensions - requirements  
1. No shelf or overhang of combustible material should  
be closer than 650mm above the hob.  
2. There must be a minimum clearance of 50mm  
between the edges of the hob and any side walls;  
this clearance must be maintained up to 420mm  
above the worktop.  
3. There must be a minimum clearance of 50mm  
between the rear edge of the hob and the rear  
wall. This clearance must be maintained up to

Protecting the cut-out;  
The types of chipboard used for work sur-  
faces swell relatively quickly in contact with  
humidity.  
Apply a special varnish or adhesive to the  
cut edge to protect it from steam or con-  
densation which may form under the work  
surface under the hob.  
This hob can be installed conventionally (glass  
above the work top) or recessed into the work  
top for a flush fit.  
Seal  
Conventional Installation  
Worktop  
Apply the self adhesive seal to the underside  
edges of the hob glass. For best results, the  
seal should be adhered along each side in turn,  
as close to the edge as possible, and trimmed  
at each corner, taking care to ensure a neat  
join.  
Clamp  
Screw  
Place the hob in the aperture, checking the  
hob glass is covering the work top along all  
four sides. Set the front edge of the appliance  
parallel with the front of the work top. Locate  
and attach the securing clamps to the front  
and rear underside of the hob, using the 2-off  
pozidriv self-tapping screws provided. Tighten  
the screws so that the hob is pulled down firm-  
ly against the worktop, thus ensuring a good  
seal.

Important: Clamps may be  
reversed to fit either 30mm or  
40mm deep work top.

Installation Instructions  
Recessed Method (selected models)  
Recess the work top to the appropriate depth and  
shape to fit the hob.  
Apply the self adhesive seal to the underside of the  
hob glass. For best results, the seal should be  
adhered along each joint in turn, as close to the  
edge as possible, and trimmed at each corner, tak-  
ing care to ensure a neat join.  
Important: Clamps may  
be reversed to fit either  
30mm or 40mm deep  
work top.
