To turn the hob on, press the power button for around 1 second.

POSITIONING
Locate the desired cooking zone by referring to the position symbols.
Do not cover the control panel symbols with the cooking pot.
Please note: In the cooking zones close to the control panel, it is advisable to
keep pots and pans inside the markings (taking both the bottom of the pan
and the upper edge into consideration, as this tends to be larger).
This prevents excessive overheating of the keypad. When grilling or frying,
please use the rear cooking zones wherever possible.

FUNCTIONS

The “My menu“ button activates the special functions.
Place the pot in position and select the cooking zone.
Press the “My menu“ button. The display of the selected area will show “A“.
To deactivate the special function, select the cooking zone and press

MELTING
This function allows you to bring food to the ideal temperature for
melting and to maintain the condition of the food without risk of
burning. This method is ideal, as it does not damage delicate foods such
as chocolate, and prevents them from sticking to the pot.
KEEP WARM
This feature allows you to keep your food at an ideal temperature,
usually after cooking is complete, or when reducing liquids very slowly.
Ideal for serving foods at the perfect temperature.
SLOW COOKING
This function is ideal for maintaining a simmering temperature, allowing
you to cook food for long periods with no risk of burning. Ideal for long-
cooking recipes (rice, sauces, roasts) with liquid sauces.
BOILING
This function allows you to bring water to the boil and keep it boiling,
with lower energy consumption.
About 2 litres of water (preferably at room temperature) should be placed in
the pan, and left uncovered. In all cases, users are advised to monitor the
boiling water closely, and check the amount of water remaining regularly.
