BEFORE FIRST USE
IMPORTANT!
You should clean the ceramic cooktop surface (refer to the “Cleaning and Maintenance” section).

RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATORS
► After a zone is switched off, the corresponding cooking zone will show a flashing “H” symbol next to the corresponding
zone. This means that the temperature of the zone is over 55°C and is therefore still high enough to cause injury.
►
The residual heat indicator will go out after the temperature of the zone falls below 55°C.
IMPORTANT!
The residual heat indicator will disappear if the mains supply to the product is cut.
Warning!
It is still possible to burn yourself on a cooktop zone, even when the residual heat indicator has gone
off. Always use caution when using the cooktop.
POT/PAN SENSOR
Each induction zone has a built-in sensor so that it can detect the presence of a pan.
► The sensor is fine-tuned to detect a pan being placed on it. The pan should be one size smaller than the nominal
diameter of the zone.
► If after placing a pot or pan onto a cooking zone and selecting that cooking zone, a “U” shaped symbol appears on the
cooking zone display (see below), this indicates an error. The symbol lets you know that the pot or pan is either the
incorrect size, or that it could be made from a material that is inappropriate for use on an induction cooktop.
► If a cooking zone is selected but no pan is detected, the pan sensor system will check for the presence of a pan
approximately every few seconds.
► You should check that your pots/pans are suitable for use on an induction cooktop (see the pan manufacturer’s
trademark or instructions).
