HINTS AND TIPS
It will take you a few times cooking with your induction hob to understand how quick and efficient
it is and to adapt your cooking times accordingly.
•
The first few times you use this hob, it may seem very fast, don’t use the timer, stay with your
food so you can alter heat if required.
•
Because the hob is so efficient, you may want to start with a lower cooking temperature than
you usually would.
•
Even though the hob may not look hot, it could be very warm so do not touch until completely
cool after cooking.
CARE AND CLEANING
• Unplug the Induction Hob and allow to cool completely before cleaning.
•
To clean the unit and control panel, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry before storing.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool or abrasive materials or cleansers. You may use
specialist glass hob cleaner to wipe surface if required, but always try on a small area before
first use.
•
Periodically check all parts before use
•
Never immerse the unit in water or any other liquid.
•
Store the Induction Hob with the power cable loosely coiled. Never wrap it tightly around the
base of the hob unit.
