USE
Be careful with thin enamelled sheet-steel pans!
The enamel may become damaged
at high settings if the pan is too dry; High power level settings may cause the base of
the pan to warp.
• Never use pans with a misshapen base. A hollow or rounded base can interfere with the
operation of the overheating protection, causing the appliance to become too hot. This may
lead to the glass top cracking or the pan base melting. Damage caused by using unsuitable
pans or boiling dry is excluded from the guarantee.
Minimum pan diameter
• The diameter of the bottom of the pan must be at least 12 cm. The best results are achieved
by using a pan with the same diameter as the cooking zone. If a pan is too small the zone
will not work.
• The length of a fish-pan (oval pan), used on the Bridge zones, must be at least 22 cm.
Pressure cookers
• Induction cooking is very suitable for pressure cookers. The fast-reacting cooking zone
brings the pressure cooker to pressure quickly. As soon as you switch a cooking zone off,
the dish stops cooking immediately.
Power level setting
The cooking zones have 9 levels. Beside it there is a level ‘boost’ (P). If you have switched on the
hob the required cooking zone can be chosen within the next 5 seconds. Set the power level by
touching the slider. At the first touch, the level is set according to the part of the slider that you
touch. By sliding along the slider, the power level setting is changed. By sliding to the right, the
level increasing, while sliding to the left decreases the level. When you move your finger away
from the slider, the cooking field starts to operate at the level set.
Boost function
• You can use the ‘boost’ function to cook at the highest power level during a short period of
time (max.10 minutes). After the maximum boost time the power will be reduced to setting 9.
• Boost function is not available in Bridge mode!
Boost power management
• Due to the restricted power of the induction hob, the boost function can only be set on
one cooking zone simultaneously (for both left or right cooking zones).
When switching
a cooking zone to the boost setting the other active cooking zone will automatically
be set to a lower power or will be switched off.

The setting, which are set to a lower power, will be flashing in the display.
