- The inner fan activates to cool the elec-
tronic area.
- The power level assigned to the cooking
area is adjusted.
- The relevant cooking area is switched off.
The internal fan is automatically enabled
and disabled, depending on the tempera-
ture of the electronic system. Therefore,
the fan may continue to work for a few
minutes to cool the electronics if you
switch the cooker off when the fan is swit-
ched on.
If an induction cooking area were to switch
off due to overheating, when restarted, the
power level selected would be re-enabled.
Power surges
Touch controls can withstand a
certain degree of power surges in the
electricity supply. Abnormally high
power surges can cause the control
system to malfunction (as with any type
of electrical appliance).
Suggestions and
recommendations
To ensure maximum performance from
your hob, follow these guidelines:
* Use pans with a flat base, as the greater
the surface contact between the pan
and the glass, the greater will be the
heat transmission. We recommend the
use of heavy pans so that the base is
more difficult to dent. Figure 9 shows
how pans that are dented or concave
have a smaller contact surface.
* With radiant hotplates, it is recommen-
ded that you do not use pans with a dia-
meter which is less than the diameter of
the heating area that is shown, or the
energy issued by the part outside the pan
will be wasted.
* Make sure that the pans are well cen-
tred on the outlines shown on the hea-
ting area.
* Dry the pans’ bases before putting them
on the glass ceramic hob.
* Do not leave any plastic object or uten-
sil, or any aluminium foil, lying on the
glass ceramic hob.
* Do not drag pans with corners or edges
that could damage the glass.
* Do not use the radiant hotplates without
a pan on the area that is switched on.
* Do not cook with plastic pans.
* Pans should be made of a material
which is heat-resistent so that they do
not melt on the glass.
* The glass will tolerate bangs from big
pans that do not have sharp edges. Be
careful with impacts from small, sharp
instruments.
* Avoid spilling sugar, or products contai-
ning sugar, on the glass, since these
may react with the hot glass and dama-
ge the surface.
When you cannot turn off a hot-
plate because a cream, a soup or
something similar has boiled over,
soak a cloth in water and wipe it over
the touch control, cleaning off the food,
and keep the cloth on the On/Off sensor
so that the touch control disconnects.
The induction generator complies
with the applicable european stan-
dards. Nevertheless, we recommend
