Boil Control Function
This innovative function is of an enormous
help if you want to cook pasta, rice, eggs,
or boil any kind of food. This function
allows you to perform this cooking method
"almost" automatically.
This function is available only in the plates
where this symbol appears
Pot requirements
For properly using boil control, the pot
must have the following characteristics:
- Bottom size as close as possible to the
diameter of the plate.
-
NO COVER.
- Filled
more than halfway of its capacity
with room temperature water
(never
use lukewarm or hot water).
Not fulfilling these requirements will result
in inadequate control of boiling.
WARNING: do not use this func-
tion for cooking methods other than
boiling water. Never use oil. It can over-
heat and create flames.
Activating the function:
Select the proper plate. The decimal point
lights up.
Push sensor
(12). An
A
will appear on
the plate indicator and the pilot (9) will turn
on. In the timer for this plate, a moving
segment will appear which indicates that
the system has started to monitor cooking.
When the system detects that it is about to
boil, an initial beep will go off. Take this
time to prepare the food you want to boil or
cook.
After 30 seconds, a second beep will go
off. If you haven't done it already, now is
time to put the food into the pot.
After the second beep, the system will acti-
vate the timer as a chronometer so that
you can control how long the food has
been boiling.
A few seconds after the chronometer is
activated, a third beep will go off indicating
that, from this moment on, the system will
reduce the energy supplied in order to
maintain a gentle and steady boil. The
chronometer will remain active until coo-
king has finished.
If desired, the chronometer can be deacti-
vated and you can set a time for the count-
down to occur and the plate to automati-
cally turn off (see section Timer Function).
Deactivating the function
You can cancel the function at any time by
simply turning off the plate or modifying
the power level.
Safety shut off
MAXIMUM TIME RUNNING
If one or more plates have been acciden-
tally left on, they will automatically shut off
after a certain amount of time which starts
to count from the moment the last action
was taken on the plate. (See table 1).
