VENTILATION
The fan works automatically. It starts at low speed as soon as the values released by the
electronics exceed a certain threshold. The higher speed is activated when the induction hob is
used intensively. The fan reduces ist speed and switches off automatically as soon as the
electronics have cooled down sufficiently.
STARTING UP THE HOB
BEFORE FIRST USE
First clean your appliance with a damp cloth and then rub it dry with a clean cloth. Do not use any
cleaning agent, which could cause a bluish tint on the glazed surface.
INDUCTION PRINCIPLE
Under each cooking zone is an induction coil. When the cooking zone is switched on, the induction
coil generates a variable electromagnetic field. The magnetic field generates inductive currents in
the base of the pot, which must be magnetic. As a result, the base of the pot, which is located on
the heating zone, heats up. The cooking zone heats up only indirectly through the heat emitted by
the pot.
Induction cooking zones only work with magnetic cookware:
•
Suitable induction cookware with a magnetic base such as: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel,
stainless steel with a magnetic base.
•
Unsuitable induction cookware: copper, aluminium, glass, wood, earthenware, ceramic,
nonmagnetic stainless steel.
The induction cooking zone is automatically adjusted to the size of the cookware. The
cookware must not fall below a certain base diameter, otherwise the induction will not activate.
Each pot base diameter must have a minimum size depending on the size of the cooking
zone.
If the cookware is not suitable for induction, the [ U ] display will appear.
