Empty pans or those with a thin base

Do not heat empty pans, nor use pans with a thin base. The 

hob is equipped with an internal safety system. However, an 

empty pan may heat up so quickly that the "automatic switch 

off" function may not have time to react and the pan may reach 

very high temperatures. The base of the pan could melt and 

damage the glass on the hob. In this case, do not touch the 

pan and switch the hotplate off. If it fails to work after it has 

cooled down, please contact the Technical Assistance Service.

Pan detection

Each hotplate has a minimum limit for detecting pans, which 

varies depending on the material of the pan being used. You 

should therefore use the hotplate that is most suitable for the 

diameter of your pan.

Familiarise yourself with the appliance

These instructions for use are applicable to other hobs. On 

page 2 

an overview of the models is provided, along with 

information on measurements.

The control panel

Control surfaces

Pressing a symbol activates its corresponding function. 

Notes

The settings will not change if several symbols are pressed at 

the same time. This enables the programming zone to be 

cleaned when food is spilt.

Always keep the control surfaces dry. Moisture can affect 

proper functioning.

Hotplates

Residual heat indicator

The hob has a residual heat indicator for each hotplate to show 

those which are still hot. Avoid touching a hotplate that displays 

this.

Even when switched off, the 

œ

/

 light will remain on as long as 

the hotplate remains hot.
If the pan is removed before the hotplate is turned off the

 œ

/

 

indicators and the selected power level will appear alternately.
