BEFORE FIRST USE
Use of the touch keys and slide control
Place the tip of your finger flat on a key or the slide control to achieve the best results. You do
not have to apply any pressure. The touch keys only react to the light pressure of a fingertip.
Do not operate the controls with any other objects.
Induction noises
A ticking sound
This is caused by the capacity limiter on the left and right zones. Ticking can also occur at lower
cooking levels.
Pans are making noise
Pans can make some noise during cooking. This is caused by the energy flowing from the hob to
the saucepan. At high levels, this is perfectly normal for some pans. It will not damage either the
pans or the hob.
The fan is making noise
To enlarge the lifespan of the electronics, the appliance is equipped with a fan. If you use the
appliance intense, the fan is activated to cool down the appliance and you will hear a buzzing
sound. The fan runs on for several minutes after the hob has been switched Off.
Appropriate pans
Induction cooking requires a pan with a thick flat bottom (minimum 2.25 mm). Use pans
made of magnetic material or pans with a sandwich bottom. The best pans to use have the
Class Induction quality mark. Other pans provide a lower performance. Pans made of copper,
aluminum or ceramic material are not appropriate.
Only use pans with a flat bottom. A hollow or rounded bottom can interfere with the
operation of the empty cooking protection, causing the appliance to become too hot.
This may lead to damages. Damage caused by using pans that are not appropriate or
that boil dry is excluded from the guarantee.
Pans that have been used on a gas hob cannot be used on an induction hob.
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 bottom of the
pan to warp.
