Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Installation should be performed by a qualified technician to ensure correct electrical connection and integration into your countertop. Follow the SmartHQ™ app's guided setup for initial configuration and to familiarize yourself with the hob's features. Ensure the hob is installed in a well-ventilated area as per manufacturer instructions.
Compatibility: This induction hob requires cookware with a magnetic base (e.g., cast iron, stainless steel with a magnetic layer). Check your existing cookware by holding a magnet to the base; if it sticks, it's likely compatible. For Link Mode Extraction, ensure you have a Fisher & Paykel or compatible cooker hood that supports this feature.
Care: After each use, allow the hob to cool completely. Clean the ceramic glass surface with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid using abrasive sponges, steel wool, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the surface. For tougher stains, apply a specialized ceramic hob cleaner and buff gently. The touch controls can be wiped clean with a damp cloth; ensure they are dry before use.
