INDUCTION
The vitro-ceramic covered induction hotplate is a revolutionary piece of cooking equipment.
An induction ring or zone consists of an induction unit placed underneath a vitro-ceramic hob top.
The unit is powered by means of a high-frequency AC current.
Energy is transmitted electromagnetically to the cookware on the hob top.
This magnetic field passes through the cooking surface into the bottom of your pans.
The induction hob is used exactly like cast-iron or standard vitro-ceramic hobs. The differences are
as follows:
- During cooking heat is generated inside the pans. The ceramic hob gets hot only as heat is
reflected by the pans. It is not directly heated by induction.
- The induction unit only operates if there is contact between the induction zone and the pan in the
cooking zone
- Reaction to adjustments is immediate, enabling the temperature to be changed quickly and
accurately.
The electronic controls mean that the heat can be changed very accurately. The great efficiency of
the system means that it is cheap to run and improves comfort for the user as it heats the pan, not
the surrounding kitchen.
Cleaning induction hotplates is very easy since when pans boil over, the food they contain does not
burn on the cooking surface.
Description:
The induction hob version comprises a 4 mm thick vitroceramic plate equipped, according to the
model, with the following :
- one 1400 W zone Ø 145 mm and a 1800W booster function ( ).
- one 1850 W zone Ø 180 mm and a 2500 W booster function.
Induction unit are fitted with:
- a rotating encoder control that gives 9 power selections
- an electronic display of the power being used.
- 2 warming positions (at approximately 42°C and 70°C in the recipient).
- Accelerator to pre-selected heat setting and then automatically switches to
the preset power level.
- Booster function.
- Child safety function.
- Overheating cut out.
Note
: Each ring is fitted with a waste heat indicator lamp. These lamps light
up a short time after the corresponding unit has been switched on and go out when the heat in the
zone of the ring has dropped to a value that no longer constitutes a risk to users (approximately
60°C) : Is the Message «

».
A ventilator is located underneath the table, to refresh air for an optimum power of all units.
USE:
Place food in pan.
Turn the control knob of the ring required (clockwise).
The power level is set on the display.
LAs heating is very rapid, select the target heat required immediately (i.e. no need to increase heat
in stages).
The various positions are best suited to the following examples of cooking operations:
u
The display shows the letter
U
.
While in use, if the pan is removed from the cooking zone, the power is cut automatically, the symbol
U
is displayed. To stop this symbol, you have to cut the burner supply by positioning the knob to
0. Prior to this decision, if the pan is repositioned on the burner, the power automatically restarts.
