Using the touch controls
The touch controls may take some getting used to if you
are used to other (rotary) controls. Place the tip of your
fi nger fl at on the control to achieve the best results. You
do not have to apply any pressure.
The touch sensors only react to the light pressure of
a fi ngertip. Do not operate the controls with any other
objects. The hob will not switch on when your pet walks
over it.
Induction cooking
Induction cooking is fast
• To start you will be surprised by the speed of
induction cooking. Especially at higher settings, foods
and liquids will boil very rapidly. It is best not to leave
pans unattended to avoid them boiling over or boiling
dry.
The power will be adjusted
• In the case of induction cooking, it is only the part of
the zone on which the pan stands that is used. If you
use a small pan on a large zone, the power will be
adjusted to the diameter of the pan. The power will
thus be lower and it will take longer before the food in
the pan comes to the boil.
No heat loss and cold handles with induction cooking.
Attention
• Grains of sand may cause scratches which cannot be
removed.
• Only put pans with a clean base on the cooking
surface and always pick pans up to move them.
• Do not use the hob as a worktop. Always keep the lid
on the pan when cooking, in order to avoid energy
loss.
How does induction work
A magnetic fi eld is generated in the appliance. By
placing a pan with an iron base on a cooking zone, a
current is induced in the pan base. This induced current
generates heat in the base of the pan.
The coil (1) in the hob (2) generates a magnetic fi eld
(3). By placing a pan with an iron base (4) on the coil, a
current is induced in the base of the pan.
Easy
The electronic controls are accurate and easy to set.
On the lowest setting, you can melt chocolate directly in
the pan, for example, or cook ingredients that you would
normally heat in a bain-marie.
Fast
Thanks to the induction hob’s high power levels, bringing
food to the boil is very quick. Cooking food through takes
just as long as for other types of cooking.
Clean
The hob is easy to clean. Because the cooking zones do
not get any hotter than the pans themselves, food spills
cannot burn on.
