When the hob is switched on, it is possible to lock the
oven controls in order to avoid accidental changes being
made to the settings (by children, during cleaning, etc.).
Press the

will illuminate and an audible beep sound will be em-
mited. To use any of the controls (e.g. to stop cooking),
you
must switch off this function. Press the
button for a few moments, the icon will
stop illuminating and the lock function will be removed.
All the keys on the cooking zone selection wil be locked
if :the cooktop is off,,
if the Control Panel Lock is activated or
if an error on a cooktop occurs..

rely solely on the pan sensor.
If the control panel lock has been activated, the controls
will continue to be locked even after the hob is switched

first remove the lock function.
Practical advice on using the appliance
! Use cookware made from materials which are compat-
ible with the induction principle (ferromagnetic material).
We especially recommend pans made from: cast iron,
coated steel or special stainless steel adapted for induc-
tion. Use a magnet to test the compatibility of the cook-
ware.

In addition, to obtain the best results from your hob: • Use
pans with a thick, flat base in order to fully utilise the
cooking
zone.
! Do not use adapters, diffusers, or metal plates on the
cooking zones .They may have a detrimental effect
upon the hob’s performance, and might damage the
hob’s aesthetics.
