Residual heat indicator
After using a cooking zone an indicator in the form [ H ] will warn you that the surface
temperature is high. You should avoid touching this zone. There is a risk of getting burnt.
The residual heat can be used to save energy.
Ventilation
The cooling system is fully automatic. The cooling fan starts with a low speed when the calories
brought out by the electronic system reach a certain level. The ventilation starts his high speed
when the hob is intensively used. The cooling fan reduces his speed and stops automatically
when the electronic circuit is cooled enough.
STARTING-UP AND APPLIANCE MANAGEMENT
Before the first use
Clean your hob with a damp cloth, and then dry the surface thoroughly. Do not use detergent
which risks causing blue-tinted colour on the glass surface.
Induction principle
An induction coil is located under each heating zone. When it is engaged, it produces a variable
electromagnetic field which produces inductive currents in the ferromagnetic bottom plate of the
pan. The result is a heating-up of the pan located on the heating zone.
Of course the pan has to be adapted :

All ferromagnetics pans are recommended (please verify it thanks a little magnet): cast
iron and steel pans, enamelled pans, stainless-
steel pans with ferromagnetic bottoms…

Are excluded : cupper, pure stainless-steel, aluminium, glass, wood, ceramic,
stoneware,…
The induction heating zone adapts automatically the size of the pan. With a too small diameter
the pans doesn’t work. This diameter is varying in function of the heating zone diameter.
If the pan is not adapted to the induction hob the display will show [ U ].
