To clean the hob, first ensure it is switched off and cooled down. Use a soft cloth with warm soapy water to wipe the surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the surface. For stubborn stains, use a ceramic hob scraper.
Check that the hob is properly connected to the power supply. Inspect the circuit breaker to ensure it hasn't tripped. If the problem persists, consult the user manual or contact customer support.
Yes, cast iron pans can be used on the hob, but ensure the bottom of the pan is smooth to avoid scratching the surface. Cast iron retains heat well, so use moderate heat settings.
A clicking noise can occur when the hob is adjusting power levels to maintain the set temperature. This is normal operation. However, if the noise is loud or persistent, it may require technical inspection.
To lock the controls, press and hold the lock button for a few seconds until the lock indicator lights up. This prevents accidental changes to the settings.
Use flat-bottomed cookware that is compatible with induction hobs. Stainless steel and cookware with magnetic properties work best. Avoid using glass, copper, or aluminum pans unless they are specifically designed for induction use.
After a power outage, the hob should reset automatically. If it doesn't, turn it off at the mains for a few minutes and then turn it back on. Reconfigure the settings as needed.
Uneven heating may be due to uneven cookware bases or a mismatch between the size of the pan and the cooking zone. Use flat, appropriately sized cookware for best results.
Regular cleaning after each use is essential. Periodically check for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure that the ventilation around the hob is unobstructed to prevent overheating.
If an error code is displayed, consult the user manual for troubleshooting steps. Avoid using the hob until the issue is resolved to prevent potential damage or safety hazards.
