Smeg 60cm 4 Zone Induction Hob - Black

You need cookware with a magnetic base. Cast iron, stainless steel (with a magnetic base), and specific induction-ready pots and pans are suitable. Aluminum or copper pans will not work unless they have a magnetic layer added to the base.

The Boost function is typically activated by pressing a specific icon or holding a button related to the cooking zone. Consult your user manual for precise instructions, as it varies by model.

The residual heat indicator shows that a cooking zone is still hot after it has been turned off. This is a safety feature to prevent burns.

While the hob has specific zone diameters, the 60cm width and four zones offer flexibility. It's best to match the pan size to the zone size for optimal efficiency and even heating. The bridge function allows combining zones for larger cookware.

Wipe with a damp cloth and mild detergent after the hob has cooled. For tougher stains, use a specialized glass ceramic cleaner and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive materials.

The connected load is 7200W. This is important to consider when planning your kitchen's electrical capacity.

Installation requires a qualified electrician due to the electrical specifications. Ensure the unit fits within the specified built-in compartment dimensions for safe operation.

Ensure the power supply is connected and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Check if the child lock is activated and deactivate it according to the manual.

Verify that the cookware is induction-compatible (magnetic base) and that its diameter is suitable for the selected cooking zone. Ensure the bottom of the pan is clean and flat.

Refer to the product manual for a list of error codes and their corresponding solutions. Common codes may relate to overheating or incorrect pan placement.

Check if the boost function is being used appropriately. Ensure cookware is centered on the zone and is induction-compatible. Overheating protection may have activated; allow the hob to cool.
