Ensure that the handles of
cookware do not stick out over
the edge of the range, to avoid
them being knocked over by
accident. This also makes it more
difficult for children to reach the
cooking vessels.
REMAINING HEAT INDICATORS
When the temperature of a cooking zone is still hot, the relevant
remaining heat indicator
lights up on the display to alert you of the hot surface.
Avoid touching the hob surface over the cooking area. Please pay special attention to children.
When the
is lit on the display, it is still possible to start cooking again; just turn the control
knob to the required power level.
COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION COOKING
The induction cooking system OPERATES ONLY if using correct cookware suitable for induction
cooking.
The bottom of the pan has to be ferromagnetic to generate the electromagnetic field necessary
for the heating process (meaning a magnet has to stick to the bottom of the pan).
Pans made from the following materials are not suitable:
•
glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, stoneware;
•
pure stainless steel, aluminium or copper without magnetic bottom.
To check if a pan is suitable or not:
•
test the bottom of the pan with a magnet: if the magnet sticks, the pan is suitable.
•
if a magnet is not available pour a small amount of water inside the pan and place the pan
on a cooking zone. Switch on the cooking zone: if the symbol
(pan detection) appears
on the cooking zone display (instead of the power level), the pan is not suitable.
Important note:
the cooking zones will not operate if the pan diameter is too small (
pan
detection symbol will appear on the cooking zone display). To correctly use the cooking zones
follow the indications given in the following table.
Induction cooking zone
Minimum pan diameter recommended
Front right
4” 23/32 (120 mm)
Rear right
7” 3/32 (180 mm)
Rear left
5” 45/64 (145 mm)
Front left
5” 45/64 (145 mm)
Pay attention:
The pan shall always be centred over the middle of the cooking zone. It
is possible to use oversized pans but the bottom of the pan cannot touch other cooking
zones.
Always use pans with thick, completely flat bottom.
Do not use pans with concave or convex bottom; these could cause overheating of the
cooking zone.
Note:
Some types of pans could cause noise when used on an induction cooking zone.
The noise does not mean any failure on the appliance and does not influence the cooking
operation.
