To turn on the Brandt TI1032B hob, press the power button located on the control panel. Once the hob is on, select the desired cooking zone and adjust the heat setting using the touch controls.
If the hob does not heat up, ensure that it is properly connected to the power supply. Check the circuit breaker and make sure it hasn't tripped. Also, verify that you have selected the correct cooking zone and set an appropriate heat level.
To clean the hob, wait until it cools down, then use a damp cloth and mild detergent to wipe the surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners or sharp objects that may scratch the surface.
To lock the controls, press and hold the lock button until the indicator light activates. This prevents accidental activation of the hob. To unlock, press and hold the lock button again until the light goes off.
The "E" error code typically indicates an issue with the hob's electronic circuitry. Try resetting the hob by turning it off and on again. If the error persists, consult the user manual or contact Brandt customer support for assistance.
To prevent boiling over, use a larger pot to allow for more expansion and reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Additionally, you can use the hob's timer function to remind you to check on your cooking.
To set the timer, select the desired cooking zone and press the timer button. Use the touch controls to adjust the time, then press the timer button again to activate it. The hob will automatically turn off the selected zone when the time expires.
Suitable cookware for the Brandt TI1032B hob includes flat-bottomed pots and pans made of materials such as stainless steel or cast iron. Avoid using cookware with uneven or damaged bases for optimal heat distribution.
To reset the hob, turn off the power from the mains for about 30 seconds, then turn it back on. This can help resolve any temporary software glitches. If the problem persists, refer to the user manual or contact customer support.
To cook efficiently, use cookware that matches the size of the cooking zone, cover pots with lids to retain heat, and reduce the heat setting once the desired temperature is reached. Additionally, take advantage of the residual heat by turning off the hob a few minutes before the cooking time ends.
