STARTING-UP AND APPLIANCE MANAGEMENT
Before Using Your New Induction Hob
Clean your hob with a damp cloth, and then dry the surface thoroughly. Do not use detergent, as this risks causing
blue-tinted colour on the glass surface.
How Induction Works
Induction coils are located under the cooking area. When it is engaged, it produces a variable electromagnetic field
which produces inductive currents in the ferromagnetic bottom plate of the pan. The result is a heating-up of the pan
located on the heating zone.
Of course, the pan must be suitable:
•
All ferromagnetic pans are recommended (please test to see if it attracts a magnet): cast iron and steel pans,
enamelled pans, stainless-steel pans with ferromagnetic bottoms…
•
NOT suitable: copper, pure stainless-steel, aluminium, glass, wood, ceramic, stoneware, …
The induction heating zone adapts automatically to the size of the pan. Pans with too small diameter may not work.
This diameter is varying in relationship to the heating zone diameter.
If the pan is not suitable to the induction hob it wouldn’t be displayed on the screen.
Ventilation
The cooling system is fully automatic. The cooling fan starts with a low speed when the energy brought out by the
electronic system reach a certain level. The ventilation will run at high speed when the hob is intensively used. The
cooling fan reduces speed and stops automatically when the electronic circuit is cooled enough.
Sensitive screen
Your induction hob is equipped with electronic controls with TFT screen. When your finger presses the display, the
corresponding command is activated. This activation is validated by a control light, a letter or a number on the screen
and/or a “beep” sound.
For general use, ensure only one button is pressed at any time.
WARNING: NEVER PLACE A PAN ON THE SCREEN.
