Inspiration  
For a delicious treat or the easiest dessert; dip clean, dry strawberries into good quality chocolate  
that has been melted on the lowest power on the Supersimmer element. Hold the strawberries by  
their stalks to dip them and place on non-stick baking paper in the fridge to set.  
DESIGN  
Fisher & Paykel Cooktops offer the perfect blend of form and function. The  
convenience of fingertip control and performance of high-speed ribbon elements,  
delivering results you can count on time after time.  
SUPERSIMMER  
Innovative engineering and an understanding of the cooking process led to the  
development of the Supersimmer element. Turning down to a very low and even  
power setting, this element is perfect for melting chocolate and butter, simmering  
soups and stews, cooking delicate sauces and keeping food warm.

Inspiration  
Chocolate ganache is a wonderfully rich, and very easy, fudge topping for cakes. Melt 200g dark chocolate and 80ml  
cream together on the lowest power on the Supersimmer element, stirring regulaly. Pour the hot mixture over the  
cake, allowing it to run, or spreading it, down the sides. It will harden on cooling.  
U S I N G Y O U R C O O K T O P / H O B  
TEMPERATURE CONTROL  
Your cooktop offers a wide range of temperature settings from delicate, slow cooking  
to the intense hot temperatures needed for boiling and searing. As the control knob  
is turned clockwise, the heat output is increased. Turn the control knob to the HI  
setting to begin cooking and adjust as necessary.  
The elements are controlled by variable energy regulators giving infinite control. There  
is no ‘stop’ at the LO marking; this is to allow you to experiment at finding the  
minimum heat (the power level drops off rapidly to zero below the LO marking). The  
HI setting is ideal for boiling, searing or frying. For general cooking purposes turn the  
control knob to the HI setting to begin cooking and adjust as necessary. Once your  
pan is hot, reduce the temperature to maintain a steady heat to cook your food  
through.  
Be sure you turn the control knob off when you finish cooking. You will feel a click at  
the OFF position.  
Cooking efficiency will vary due to the different types of cooking utensils used.  
Cooking results are influenced by pot quality and size. You will need to experiment  
with the temperature settings to match your desired cooking result. It is essential  
that pot size matches the diameter of the cooking zone. Use flat bottom utensils of  
good quality. Poor performance is often due to incorrect pot size.

U S I N G Y O U R C O O K T O P / H O B  
DUAL CIRCUIT CONTROLS  
Select the full element by turning the knob anti-clockwise to Hi. To heat the inner  
element only, turn clockwise to Hi.  
HOT SURFACE INDICATORS  
The indicator light under the knob glows white whenever an element is on. After the  
element has been turned off, the indicator will glow red until the element surface has  
cooled down to a temperature that is safe to touch.  
Inspiration  
For a very easy tomato sauce to serve with pasta, fish or chicken, chop 2 cloves of garlic and  
fry lightly in 2 tbsp olive oil. Stir in a 400g can of tomatoes, 1 tbsp tomato paste and 1 tsp  
sugar. Mash lightly with a potato masher and simmer for 5-10 mins. Add fresh basil leaves,  
feta cheese and/or lightly cooked vegetables and warm through before serving. For Bolognese,  
add 500g minced beef and fry with the garlic along with half an onion, chopped. Simmer for  
20-30 minutes and serve over spaghetti sprinkled with grated parmesan cheese.  
Inspiration  
For the ultimate hot chocolate drink, warm 60g dark chocolate with 2 tablespoons water in  
a small pan, stirring until the chocolate has melted. Gradually whisk in 500 ml milk and  
continue heating at moderate heat until piping hot, but not boiling. Pour into 2 or 3 mugs  
and top with marshmallows.  
SUPERSIMMER  
The front right element of your cooktop/hob is fitted with a unique simmer control.  
This allows the element to be turned down to a very low and even power setting  
(25 watts compared with 60 watts on other elements). These lower settings are  
ideal for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces, and for  
simmering soups and stews. It can also be used as a ‘warm zone’ for keeping  
cooked food hot.  
The supersimmer element is just as powerful (1200 W) in the top heat range as the  
same size standard element allowing food to be browned, seared, sautéed or boiled  
before simmering all on the same element.  
WHY SIMMER?  
Simmering occurs at around 85oC (185oF), when bubbles rise occasionally and  
gently to the surface of the cooking liquid. This is below boiling point, and above  
the minimum temperature needed to keep food safe from bacteria. Simmering is the  
key to delicious soups, tender stews and delicate sauces. Boiling soup for extended  
periods of time will cause a breakdown in texture and a loss of many key nutrients.  
Vigorous heating can cause curdling or burning of sauces and meat boiled in a stew  
becomes tough. Cooking at simmering temperatures converts connective tissue in  
less expensive cuts of meat to soluble protein, making it deliciously tender, while  
the cooking liquids become rich and full of flavour.

Pan size and quality will affect the transfer of heat so you may need to experiment  
to find the exact power setting for your food. Heavy, flat based metal pans 15cm in  
diameter or below will give best results with the supersimmer element.

BÉCHAMEL SAUCE  
Béchamel is the most useful of white sauces and the supersimmer element gives excellent results.  
Warm 300ml milk and set aside.  
Melt 1tbsp (15g) butter in a heavy based 15cm pan and stir in 2tbsp (15g) flour. Cook the mixture on  
MED (sizzling), for 2-3 minutes.  
Take the pan off the heat and gradually whisk in the warm milk.  
Do this slowly at first to avoid lumps.  
When all the milk is smoothly incorporated add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste.  
Return to the heat and cook on MED until the sauce thickens and is just boiling.  
Reduce the temperature to a point in the ‘warm zone’ where the sauce simmers very gently and cook  
for 5-10 minutes, until the floury taste has gone.  
Makes about 300ml but this recipe is easily doubled.  
Variations:  
For a savoury sauce add half a stock cube or half a teaspoon of stock powder with the flour, but take  
care with additional seasoning.  
To make cheese sauce add a pinch of English mustard powder with the flour and stir in 50-100g  
grated, well flavoured cheese at the end of cooking. (Don’t reheat or the cheese will go stringy).  
For parsley sauce; delicious with cooked ham, fish and vegetables. Add the stalks from a bunch of  
parsley to the warming milk and infuse. Chop the leaves finely and stir into the finished sauce.  
Inspiration  
For a weekend brunch make potato rosti by squeezing out the moisture from peeled & grated  
potatoes. Mix with melted butter and pan fry generous spoonfuls till golden on each side.  
Serve with smoked salmon and a little sour cream.  
ABOUT THE RADIANT ELEMENTS  
The elements will cycle on and off to maintain your selected control setting.  
Even after the elements are turned off, the glass cooktop retains enough heat to  
continue cooking. To avoid over-cooking, remove pans from hot elements  
when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on a hot element until it has  
cooled completely (while the element status indicators are glowing).  
It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven or another element on the glass surface  
even when the surface is cool.  
HEATING TIPS  
When you need to boil, simmer or fry food, first set the temperature to Hi. Once  
boiling or your pan is hot, reduce the temperature setting to maintain a steady heat  
to cook your food through. This will reduce cooking time.  
TEMPERATURE LIMITERS  
Temperature limiters are fitted to the elements to prevent the glass from  
overheating. You may notice the limiters turn the elements on and off during  
cooking.

COOKWARE  
To achieve optimum cooking performance, use heavy gauge, flat, smooth bottom pans that  
conform to the diameter of the cooking area.  
Suitable  
Unsuitable  
Unsuitable  
To get the best results out of your cooktop/hob follow these simple suggestions :  
Preheat the cookware on the cooktop/hob before adding food.  
Cookware with a stainless steel sandwich base or enamelled cast iron will give you  
the best results.  
When food comes to the boil reduce the temperature setting.  
Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the cooktop.  
Aluminium and copper-bottomed cookware can cause a metallic residue to remain on the  
cooktop. If left, this becomes difficult to remove. Clean the cooktop after every use.  
Match the bottom of your saucepans with the cooking zone. This will give you the  
most efficient cooking.  
A saucepan with a flat base will make better contact with the element resulting  
in shorter cooking times.  
Jagged edges on saucepans or heavy frypans will scratch the cooktop/hob.  
Using a lid will reduce cooking times.  
Inspiration  
For a quick dessert melt butter and sugar in a pan and simmer over medium heat, add some  
fresh cut pineapple and rum and cook a little further turning the pineapple from time to time.  
Serve warm with pan juices and a dollop of coconut cream.  
PENNE WITH TOMATO & PUMPKIN  
2 T olive oil  
500g pumpkin, peeled and diced  
1 clove garlic  
1 red pepper sliced into strips  
2 zucchini/courgette, sliced diagonally  
1 tin Italian tomatoes  
2 T tomato paste  
1 T heaped, sundried tomato pesto  
4 rashers bacon, rind removed  
400g penne pasta  
parmesan cheese  
Heat the oil in a large frypan with a lid. Add garlic and pumpkin.  
When the garlic is soft, add all the other ingredients except for the bacon, penne  
and parmesan cheese.  
Simmer the sauce gently with the lid on until it is thick and the pumpkin is cooked.  
Cook the penne until al dente. While the penne is cooking grill the bacon until crisp.  
Drain the penne and put into pasta bowls, add the tomato pumpkin mixture, sprinkle  
with parmesan cheese and garnish with bacon cut into small strips.

CARING FOR YOUR COOKTOP  
To keep your cooktop/hob looking attractive, it is important to clean it regularly. Normal  
wear and tear will occur but this will not affect the performance of your cooktop/hob.  
Remove any food, spillovers or grease from the cooktop/hob while it is still warm using the  
razor blade scraper provided held at a 30° angle.  
WARNING  
When the safety cover is retracted the blade in the scraper is razor sharp.  
Use with extreme care and always store safely and out of reach of children.  
Use cleaner on the cooktop/hob while it is warm to touch. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean  
cloth or paper towel. The cooktop/hob may become stained if cleaning residue remains.  
METALLIC STAINS  
Copperbased or aluminium saucepans may cause metallic staining. These stains show as a  
metallic sheen on the cooktop/hob. If the cooktop/hob is not cleaned regularly and the  
stains are allowed to burn onto the surface, they may react with the glass ceramic and will  
no longer be removable. The use of a conditioner will help prevent damage if applied after  
every use.  
CLEANING THE STAINLESS STEEL FRAME  
Use warm soapy water for cleaning when the cooktop/hob is cold. Apply soapy water with  
a soft sponge or cloth. Do not use steel soap pads as this may dull the appearance of  
the appliance over time.  
After cleaning, wipe dry with a clean cloth to ensure the surface is thoroughly dry. For  
extra shine, use a stainless steel polish such as 3M Stainless Steel Cleaner and polish or  
Steel Magic Cleaner.  
Do not use abrasive cleaners on any part of the cooktop/hob as this may damage the  
cooktop/hob.  
Do not drag pots over the edge of the cooktop/hob as this may mark the stainless steel.  
Inspiration  
Creamy mashed vegetables are always popular. Experiment with different combinations: sweet potato  
& potato, carrot & parsnip and pumpkin, potato and nutmeg. Flavour with salt and pepper and parsley.  
SPILLOVERS  
Clean the following spillovers immediately, using the razor blade scraper provided.  
Do not let sugar, jam, plastic, plastic wrap and aluminium foil melt onto the cooktop surface.  
Clean these immediately using the razor blade scraper provided.  
Anything that melts onto the ceramic surface may cause pitting if it is left to cool before  
removing.  
Pitting may also occur when a food with a high sugar content is spilt onto the cooktop and  
not cleaned up immediately.  
Remember some foods e.g. peas and swede have a naturally high sugar content.  
ENERGY SAVING TIPS  
Place a pan on the element prior to turning on the heat.  
Always use a lid to retain the heat.  
Choose cookware of the proper size, material and construction.  
Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.  
Use residual heat retained in the glass ceramic panel to continue the cooking process or to  
keep foods warm.  
Select the proper temperature setting for the cooking task.  
RECOMMENDED CLEANERS FOR CERAMIC COOKTOP/HOB  
Mica Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner  
Cerapol Ceramic Cleaner  
Application of a conditioner such as Mica Ceramic Cooktop Protector will help prevent any  
damage to the cooktop/hob.

C O O K T O P / H O B S A F E T Y  
Your Titan Cooktop/Hob has been carefully designed to operate safely  
during normal cooking procedures.  
Please keep the following rules in mind when you are using this appliance.  
WARNING  
During use this appliance becomes hot.  
Care should be taken to avoid touching cooktop surface.  
Do not stand or place heavy objects on this appliance.  
Do not place aluminium foil or plastic dishes on the cooktop/hob.  
CERAMIC SURFACE  
If the ceramic surface is cracked, turn the power off at the wall to avoid the possibility of  
electric shock.  
Aluminium and copper - bottomed cookware can cause a metallic residue (metallic staining)  
to remain on the cooktop/hob.  
If the cooktop/hob is not cleaned regularly and the stains are allowed to burn onto the  
surface, they may react with the glass ceramic and will no longer be removable.  
Jagged edges on saucepans or heavy frypans, will scratch the cooktop/hob.  
Caution: Handles of saucepans may be hot to touch. Check saucepan handles do not  
overhang other elements that are on. Keep handles out of reach of children.  
Handy Hint  
When deep-frying always use a heavy flat-based pan. Do the same when making preserves  
and jam to prevent the mixture sticking to the base of the pan.

TROUBLE SHOOTING  
PROBLEM  
SOLUTION  
The graphics appear to have worn  
off the glass.  
This is unlikely to happen. It is probable  
that baked on food has obscured the  
graphics. We recommend using a razor  
scraper for removing such spills.  
There is a metal sheen on the glass.  
This could be caused by copper or  
aluminium bottomed pots. Ceramic  
cleaner should remove this. If the cooktop  
is not cleaned regularly and the stains are  
allowed to burn onto the surface, they may  
react with the glass ceramic and no longer  
be removable.  
The glass is being scratched.  
The most common cause of this is rough  
edged cookware, check that your  
pots/pans have flat smooth bases.  
The element keeps turning itself on  
and off.  
This is normal and is caused by :  
1. The element cycling to prevent the glass  
from overheating.  
2. The controller sometimes cycling to  
maintain your selected heat setting.  
The element status indicator lights  
are no longer working or are  
showing the wrong colour.  
Call your Service Center.  
F R E Q U E N T L Y A S K E D Q U E S T I O N S  
Q
A
Is it possible for my cooktop/hob to shatter?  
This is highly unlikely. The glass is very robust and strong and goes through a  
vigorous testing process before it is accepted.  
Q
A
Does the glass scratch easily?  
No, the glass is very tough. However check that your pots do not have jagged edges  
on the bottom.  
Q

What do the lights mean?  
These depict the status of the elements:  
White - the element is turned on.  
Red - the element is turned off but the surface is still hot.  
Q
A
Will the graphics come off?  
No, the graphics on the glass are fused onto the surface. However they may be  
obscured by baked on food. This is easily removed with the scraper supplied with  
the product. The graphics on the stainless steel are etched by laser. Refer to the  
cleaning instructions on page 12.  
Q
A
Will the surface overheat?  
Each element is fitted with temperature limiters that prevent overheating.  
Q
A
What is the best way to clean my cooktop/hob?

BEEF BOURGINON (Serves 2 - 4)  
The Supersimmer element is perfect for meat dishes that are tender and full of flavour. Try this  
variation on a French classic.  
225g chuck steak, cubed  
2 tbsp oil  
100g tiny onions or 1 large onion, chopped  
100g carrot, peeled and cut into large slices  
1 tbsp oil  
2 cloves of garlic, crushed  
2 tbsp flour  
1 cup good red wine  
1 cup beef stock  
1 bay leaf  
1 tsp thyme  
Place beef in a bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss.  
Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a medium sized saucepan on HI on the Supersimmer element. Add half of the  
steak cubes and brown quickly turning with a wooden spoon to sear all the sides. This is an excellent  
way to give stews great flavour and a rich brown colour. It should only take a couple of minutes but  
the meat may spit so take care. Remove the first batch and repeat with the remaining steak and the  
second tablespoon of oil.  
Add onions, carrot and the last tbsp of oil to the empty pan and cook on medium heat until beginning to  
brown. Add garlic and flour and cook until lightly coloured, stirring constantly. Stir in the wine and  
stock, then add bay leaves, thyme and steak. Bring to the boil.  
Reduce the temperature, cover the pan and simmer for an hour or until the meat is tender and the  
liquid is full of flavour.  
Serve with creamy mashed potatoes and garnish with lots of chopped fresh parsley.

COOKTOP CREME BRULEE WITH VANILLA MAPLE SYRUP  
Simmering over a very low heat gives this crème brulee a velvety smooth texture.  
For syrup:  
2 vanilla beans  
300ml (10 fl oz) maple syrup  
For creme brulee:  
1 vanilla bean  
600ml (20 fl oz) cream  
5 egg yolks  
3 tbsp caster sugar  
For the syrup: split 2 vanilla beans lengthways, carefully scrape the seeds from the middle of the pods with the  
tip of a sharp knife. Put seeds and pods in a pan with the maple syrup. Warm for a few minutes on the  
Supersimmer element to infuse the flavours and set aside.  
Meanwhile chill four 1 cup capacity individual serving dishes in the freezer.  
Split the remaining vanilla bean lengthways and again, carefully scrape the seeds from the middle using the tip  
of a sharp knife. Place both seeds and pod in a medium sized 15cm (6 inch) diameter saucepan with the  
cream. Heat until almost boiling, tun off the heat and leave to infuse for 15 minutes.  
Whisk yolks and sugar in a bowl and pour the cream over them. Clean the pan and strain the mixture through a  
fine sieve back into it.  
Cook on a low to medium heat in the supersimmer zone, stirring constantly for about 15 minutes. The mixture  
will gradually thicken to the consistency of runny custard so that it coats the back of a wooden spoon. It will  
thicken more on cooling. If you have a food thermometer this happens at 80oC (180oF) If you over cook the  
mixture the texture will be grainy but this won’t spoil the flavour. Stir 4 tbsp Vanilla Maple Syrup into the crème  
and pour into the chilled pots. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours. Store the remaining syrup.  
Just before serving, pour a quarter of the syrup into the top each pot.  
SPICY ASIAN CARROT SOUP (Serves 2)  
This soup is an excellent winter warmer. The amount of chilli used here gives a mild soup; increase the  
amount if you like it HOT!  
1 tbsp vegetable oil  
? an onion, chopped  
1 small celery stick, chopped  
1 garlic clove, crushed  
225g (8 oz) carrots, chopped roughly  
2cm (1/2 inch) root ginger, peeled and thinly sliced  
pinch of chilli powder  
1 1/2 cups of vegetable or chicken stock  
1 tbsp soy sauce  
1 tbsp peanut butter  
1/2 tsp sugar  
1 tsp sesame oil  
1/2 cup milk  
sour cream or crème fraiche to serve  
In a saucepan on HI cook the onion, celery, garlic, carrots, ginger and chilli powder in oil until  
onion is softened.  
Add stock and bring to the boil. Reduce temperature and simmer until the carrots are tender  
(30-45 minutes).  
Add the remaining ingredients and puree using a blender, food processor or stick blender.  
Return to saucepan and heat. Serve with a spoonful of crème fraiche or sour cream.  
Variation  
For Indian style carrot soup add 1/2 tsp of toasted cumin seeds with the vegetables and substitute soy  
sauce, peanut butter, sesame oil and milk for 1/2 cup of thick natural unsweetened yoghurt and an extra  
1/2 cup of stock.  
23  
BERRY AND PORT SAUCE  
For a delicious fruit sauce to serve with red meat and game; heat 4 Tbsp light brown sugar with 1/3 cup malt  
vinegar until they form a light caramel. Add 4 cups fresh or frozen raspberries or blueberries and simmer over a  
low heat for 20 mins, stirring occasionally. Sieve to remove pips. Mix 2 Tbsp cornflour with 4 Tbsp Port and stir  
into the sauce. Return to the heat, stirring continuously, until it thickens. Season to taste.  
SWEET AND SOUR GLAZE FOR FISH AND CHICKEN  
3 Tbsp fruit chutney  
2 Tbsp oil  
2 Tbsp runny honey  
2 Tbsp lemon juice  
2 Tbsp sweet chilli sauce  
2 cloves garlic, crushed  
1 tsp ground cumin  
1 tsp garam masala  
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated  
Combine all the ingredients in a pan and simmer until reduced to half the original volume. Brush over 4 fish  
fillets or chicken pieces and allow to marinate in the fridge for about an hour before cooking.
