18 Choosing the right cookware Important! Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or the bottom of the pan. You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction. If you do not have a magnet: 1 Put some water in the pan you want to check. 2 Follow the steps under ‘To start cooking’ opposite.
Using your induction cooktop 19 To start cooking 1 Touch and hold the ON/OFF control for 2 seconds. 2 0 will appear in the cooking zone displays. 3 Place a suitable pan on the cooking zone you wish to use. Make sure the bottom of the pan and the surface of the cooking zone are clean and dry. 4 Select a heat setting by touching – or + . If you don’t choose a heat setting within 10 seconds, the cooktop will automatically turn off. Start with step 1 again.
20 Using your induction cooktop When you have finished cooking OR 1a Turn the cooking zone off by scrolling down to 0 or touching – and + together.

When the controls are locked, all controls except the ON/OFF control are disabled. 1 2 1 2 3 To lock the controls Make sure that the cooktop is turned on but no cooking zone is in use. Touch and hold the keylock control for 2 seconds. The red light above the control comes on, indicating that the controls are locked.
22 Using your cooktop’s special features Using the PowerBoost feature This feature enables you to sear meat or bring liquid to the boil very quickly. When a cooking zone is set for PowerBoost, it uses more than 100% of the power of that particular 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.
Using your cooktop’s special features 23 Note: You can set two (CI604DT and CI754DT) or three (CI905DT) cooking zones for PowerBoost, as long as one is not behind the other. For example: If you wish to set more than one cooking zone for PowerBoost, you need to set them separately. When a cooking zone is set for PowerBoost, the cooking zone immediately in front of or behind it may have to reduce its power level.
24 Using your cooktop’s special features Using the Auto Heat-reduce feature Cooking zones set for this feature will: first quickly heat up food or liquid at the highest setting then automatically reduce the heat to a pre-selected lower setting to cook the food through.

The letter Awill start flashing alternately with 9.
Using your cooktop’s special features 25 When Auto Heat-reduce is set Initially, while the cooking zone is at the highest setting, A will flash alternately with your selected lower setting. The length of time at the highest setting depends on the lower heat setting selected. See chart below. Then, when the period of highest setting is over, A will stop flashing and the cooking zone will automatically reduce the heat to your pre-selected lower setting.
26 Using your cooktop’s special features Using the timer You may use the timer in two different ways: You can use it as a minute minder. In this case, the timer will not turn any cooking zone off when the set time is up. You can set it to turn one or more cooking zones off after the set time is up. You can set the timer for up to 99 minutes.

30 Using your cooktop’s special features When the timer is set If the timer is set for more than one cooking zone, only the indicator belonging to the cooking zone with the shortest remaining time setting will flash. To check the remaining time for another cooking zone: Touch the – and + controls of the timer together and repeat until the indicator of the desired cooking zone is flashing. When the set time is up The cooking zone whose set time is up will automatically turn off.
Using your cooktop’s special features 31 To change or cancel a timer setting 1 With the cooktop turned on, touch the – and + controls of the timer together and repeat until: the indicator of the desired cooking zone or the minute minder indicator is flashing and the small red light in the bottom corner of the minute display is on. 2 To change: Set the new time while the small red light OR at the bottom of the minute display is on.
32 Cooking guidelines Important! Take care when frying: oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if you’re using PowerBoost. At extremely high termperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious fire risk. Cooking tips When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting. Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat. Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
Cooking guidelines 33 Heat settings The settings below are guidelines only. The exact setting will depend on several factors, including your cookware and the amount you are cooking. Experiment with the cooktop to find the settings that best suit you.
34 Care and cleaning What? How? Everyday soiling on glass (fingerprints, marks, stains left by food or non-sugary spillovers on the glass) 1 2 3 4 Boilovers, melts, and hot sugary spills on the glass 1 2 3 4 Spillover on the touch controls 1 2 3 4 5 Important! Switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall. Apply cooktop cleaner while the glass is still warm (but not hot!) Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper towel. Switch the power to the cooktop back on at the wall.
Troubleshooting 35 Troubleshooting chart 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.
36 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting chart 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.
