4.1 Turning On/Off and Adjusting Heat

1. To turn on the cooktop, press the main power button (usually indicated by a circle with a vertical line).
2. Place an induction-compatible pot or pan on the desired burner zone.
3. Press the "ON/OFF" button corresponding to that burner.
4. Adjust the heat level using the '+' and '-' buttons. The cooktop offers 9 heat level settings.
5. For rapid heating, press the 'B' (Boost) button for the selected burner. This will provide maximum power for a short period.
6. To turn off a burner, press its "ON/OFF" button again. To turn off the entire cooktop, press the main power button.

4.2 Pan Detection and Safety

The cooktop features a pan size sensor that heats the element to the size of your cookware. If no pan is present or an incompatible pan is used, the burner will not activate, and an error code (e.g., "E1") may display, accompanied by an audible alert. This ensures safety and efficient energy use.

The cooktop surface remains cooler to the touch because heat is generated directly in the cookware. A "Hot Surface" indicator ("H") will appear in the display to warn you when an element is still hot.

4.3 Child Control Lock

To prevent unintended activation, especially by children, the cooktop includes a child control lock feature. Press and hold the lock button (indicated by a padlock icon) to activate or deactivate this function.

4.4 ടൈമർ പ്രവർത്തനം

Each burner can be set with a timer. Press the timer button (indicated by a clock icon) and use the '+' and '-' buttons to set the desired cooking duration. The burner will automatically turn off once the timer expires.

4.5 അനുയോജ്യമായ കുക്ക്വെയർ

Induction cooktops require cookware with a magnetic base. Most stainless steel and cast iron cookware are compatible. Aluminum, copper, or glass cookware will not work unless they have an induction-compatible base.

To test compatibility, place a magnet on the bottom of your cookware. If it sticks, the cookware is suitable for induction cooking.
