6. USING THE COOKING HOB
On first connection to the electrical mains, an operating check will be carried out automatically and all
indicator lights will come on for a few seconds.
After use, turn off the hot plates used returning the appropriate knob to the “O” position. Never rely solely
on the cookware detector.
Never place metal objects, such as dishes or cutlery, on the induction hob surface as they may overheat.
Danger of burns.
Take care not to spill sugar or sweet mixtures onto the hob when hot. Never place materials or
substances which may melt (plastic or aluminium foil) on the hob. If this occurs, promptly switch off the
cooking zones and remove the molten material with the scraper provided while the hot plate is still
lukewarm to prevent the surface from being damaged.
The hob is equipped with an induction generator for each cooking zone. Each generator located under
the glass ceramic cooking surface creates an electromagnetic field which induces a thermal current in
the base of the saucepan. This means the heat is no longer transmitted from the hob to the pan but
created directly inside the pan by the inductive current.
Advantages of an induction hob
- Energy saving thanks to the direct transmission of energy to the pan (suitable magnetisable
cookware is required) compared with traditional electric cooking.
- Improved safety as the energy is only transmitted to the container placed on the hob.
- High level of energy transmitted from the induction cooking zone to the base of the saucepan.
- Rapid heating.
- Reduced danger of burns as the cooking surface is only heated under the base of the saucepan;
foods which overflow do not stick.
