USING YOUR COOKTOP’S SPECIAL FEATURES Using the PowerBoost feature The cooking zones can be used with the PowerBoost feature. This feature enables you to sear meat or bring liquid to the boil very quickly. When the cooking zone is set for PowerBoost, it uses more than 100% of the power of the cooking zone, resulting in a boost of intense heat. IMPORTANT! PowerBoost heats food and liquids very quickly. Do not leave the cooktop unattended when using this feature.
COOKING GUIDELINES IMPORTANT! Take care when frying: oil and fat heat up very quickly. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious fire risk. PowerBoost is not recommended for cooking with oil and fat, such as deep frying. Cooking tips ●● ●● ●● ●● ●● ●● 1 2 3 4 5 ●● 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting. Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.

CARE AND CLEANING WHAT? HOW? Everyday soiling on glass (fingerprints, marks, stains left by food or non-sugary spillovers on the glass) 1 Switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall. 2 Apply cooktop cleaner while the glass is still warm (but not hot!) 3 Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper towel. 4 Switch the power to the cooktop back on at the wall.
TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO The cooktop cannot be turned on. No power. Make sure the cooktop is connected to the power supply and that it is switched on at the wall. Check whether there is a power outage in your home or area. If you’ve checked everything and the problem persists, call your Authorised Service Centre or Customer Care. The touch controls are unresponsive. The controls are locked. Unlock the controls. See section ‘Using your induction cooktop’ for instructions.
TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO Some pans make crackling or clicking noises. This may be caused by the construction of your cookware (layers of different metals vibrating differently). This is normal for induction cookware and does not indicate a fault. The cooktop makes a low humming noise when used on a high heat setting (especially PowerBoost). This is caused by the technology of induction cooking.
