2. A word on induction cooking
Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, ef-
ficient, and economical cooking technolo-
gy. It works by electromagnetic vibrations
generating heat directly in the pan, rather
than indirectly through heating the glass
surface. The glass becomes hot only be-
cause the pan eventually warms it up.

4. Using the touch controls
• The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to
apply any pressure.
• Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.
• You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
• Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that
there is no object (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them.
Even a thin film of water may make the controls difficult
to operate.
