Characteristics of the base of the pan
The characteristics of the base of the pan can
affect the evenness of the cooking.
Pans which are made from heat-diffusing
materials (such as “sandwich” pans made from
stainless steel) distribute the heat evenly, saving
time and energy.
No pan or incorrect size pan
If no pan is place on the hotplate, or the pan is not made of a suitable material
or it is not a suitable size, the heat setting on the hotplate indicator will flash.
Place a suitable pan on the hotplate to stop the indicator flashing. If there
is a delay of more than 90 seconds, the hotplate switches off automatically.
Empty pans or pans with a thin base
Do not heat empty pans and do not use pans with thin bases. Although
your hob is equipped with an internal safety system, empty cookware can
heat up so quickly that the “automatic OFF” function does not have time to
react and a very high temperature may be reached. The base of the pan could
melt and damage the hob’s glass surface. If this happens, do not touch the
pan and switch off the hotplate. If it does not work after cooling, contact our
Local Service Center or dealer.
Pan detection
Each hotplate has a minimum limit for pan detection which varies
according to the material from which the pan being used is made. It is for this
reason you are recommended to use a hotplate which matches the diameter of
the pan.
