6. USING THE COOKING HOB
6.1
General warnings and advice
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.
