• Integrated power control (Fig.3):
Each phase (this is divided into two zones in a vertical line:
F1

) is capable of using a maximum power of 3,700W.
If this is exceeded for example by activating the Booster,
the software automatically lowers power of the previously

The display of the zone with limited power will begin to flash
for about 3 seconds. During this time it is possible to modify
the power level.
• Maintenance (Fig.6):
Remove any residues of food and drops of grease from the
cooking surface using the special scraper supplied on request.
Clean the heated area as thoroughly as possible using SIDOL,
STAHLFIX or similar products and a cloth/paper, then rinse
with water and dry with a clean cloth.
Using the special scraper (optional) immediately remove
any fragments of aluminium and plastic material that have
unintentionally melted on the heated cooking area or residues
of sugar or food with a high sugar content. In this way, any
damage to the cooktop surface is prevented.
Under no circumstances use abrasive sponges or irritating
chemical detergents such as oven sprays or stain removers.
