USE
WARNINGS:
see figure 7 for correct use, and remember:
- only connect the power supply after placing
the pan on the cooking area.
- Use pans with a thick, flat bottom.
- Dry the bottom of the pan before placing it on
the cooking area.
- Do not drag pans across the glass hob as
this may damage the surface.
- Never leave the appliance unattended while
the cooking areas are in use and ensure that
children are kept at a safe distance. Pay
close attention to children because they are
unlikely to see the “H” indication of residual
heat. After use, the cooking areas remain
very hot for a while, even when they have
been switched off. Do not allow children to
rest their hands on them. After using the hob,
always make sure that the controls are in the
“zero” position (off). Make sure that pan
handles are correctly positioned towards the
inside and supervise the cooking of foods in
oil and fat, as these are highly flammable.
- After use, the cooking areas remain hot for a
long time; do not rest your hands or other
objects on them to avoid the risk of burns,
until the “H” indicating the presence of
residual heat has switched off.
- Should a crack appear on the surface of the
glass, disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply immediately.
- Do not rest sheets of aluminium or plastic
containers on the hot surface.
- Do not use the hob as a work surface.
- The pans must be properly centred on the
heating elements (see fig. 7). If the pan is not
properly centred over the corresponding
printed area or is removed without switching
the element off, a sensor automatically
switches off the hob after a few seconds and
the
symbol appears on the display
indicating the absence of the pan. If the pan
is not returned to or correctly positioned on
the cooking area within 1 minute, the hob
resets and if no control is pressed, it
switches off after 20 seconds.
- If the power level does not change during a
set period of time, the corresponding heating
element switches off automatically. The
maximum time that a heating element can
remain switched on depends on the cooking
level selected (see table below: HOB
AUTOMATIC SWITCH-OFF).
- Glass, earthenware, aluminium without a
special finish on the bottom, copper or non-
magnetic steel pans are not suitable for use
with the induction hob.
- We recommend using thick-bottomed pans
so that the heat is distributed properly and
the food cooks more evenly.
- Always use pans bearing the logo indicating
that they are suitable for use with an
induction hob, with the word INDUCTION.
Use a magnet to check that your pans are
compatible: if the magnet is attracted to the
pan, it is compatible for use.
See the following table for the pan diameters
to use:
Pans with smaller diameters risk non being
detected and therefore not activating the
inductor.
