Induction hobs are revolutionising cooking, but they can sometimes be a bit tricky to use! 🍳 Here’s a simple guide to help you get started, along with some useful tips and tricks.

Step 1: Check the Safety Fuse Switch

Some induction hobs in Edvard apartments have a safety fuse switch, usually located above the countertop or inside the cupboard below the hob. Make sure the switch is turned on before using the hob. ✅

Step 2: Make Sure the Hob Has Power

🔌 If the hob display doesn’t light up, check that the power supply is working. 🔄 Some hobs require a reset—turn it off at the fuse switch, wait a few seconds, and turn it back on.

Step 3: Activate the Hob

🔘 Touch the power button on the hob’s control panel to turn it on. ⏳ Some models require you to press and hold the power button for a few seconds. 🔑 If the hob is locked, look for a key symbol on the control panel and press and hold it to unlock.

Step 4: Select the Cooking Zone and Adjust Heat

🔥 Tap the cooking zone button for the area you want to use. ➕➖ Adjust the heat level using the + and - buttons or the touch slider. 📖 Some models have preset cooking levels—refer to the instruction manual for details.

Common Issues & Solutions

🤔 Hob Not Heating Up? Ensure the correct cooking zone is selected and the pot is induction-compatible. 🌡️ Heat Too Low or Too High? Adjust the temperature using the + and - buttons. Some hobs may require multiple taps. ⚠️ Burner Turns Off Unexpectedly? This could be due to overheating protection or improper cookware. Try resetting the hob or using a different pot. 🔊 Beeping or Error Codes? Check the instruction manual for details and contact support via the app if needed.

Step 5: Switch Off the Heat After Use

Once you’re done cooking, always remember to: ✅ Turn off the hob using the power button. ✅ Ensure all cooking zones are switched off. ✅ Let the hob cool down before cleaning.
