ACCESSORIES

POTS AND PANS

Only use pots and pans made from ferromagnetic

material which are suitable for use with induction hobs:

• enamelled steel

• cast iron

• special pots and pans in stainless steel, suitable

for induction cooking

Check for the

symbol (usually stamped on the bottom) to determine

whether a pot is suitable. A magnet may be used to check whether pots are

magnetic.

The quality and the structure of the pot base can alter cooking performance.

Some indications for the base's diameter do not correspond to the actual

diameter of the ferromagnetic surface.

Some pots and pans have only a part of the bottom in a ferromagnetic

material, with parts in another material not suitable for induction cooking.

These areas may heat up at different levels or lower temperatures. In certain

cases, where the bottom is made mainly of non-ferromagnetic materials, the

hob might not recognise the pan and therefore not switch on the cooking

zone.

To ensure optimum efficiency, always use pots and pans with a flat bottom

that distributes the heat evenly. If the bottom is uneven, this will affect

power and heat conduction.

FIRST TIME USE

WARNING

Install product according to the electrical specifications

described in the installation instructions.

Turn off all controls when done cooking

Failure to do so can result in death, fire or injuries.

POWER MANAGEMENT

At the time of purchase, the hob is set to the maximum possible power.

Adjust the setting concerning the limits of your home's electrical system as

described in the following paragraph.

N.B: Depending on the power selected for the hob, some of the cooking zone

power levels and functions (e.g. boil or fast heating) could be automatically

limited to prevent the selected limit from being exceeded.

Fire Hazard

Empty pots or pots with a thin base

Do not use empty pots or pans when the hob is on. The hob is equipped with

an internal safety system that constantly monitors the temperature, activating

the "automatic off" function where high temperatures are detected. When

used with empty pots or pots with thin bases, the temperature may rise very

quickly, and the "automatic off" function may not be triggered immediately,

damaging the pan or the hob surface. If this occurs, do not touch anything

and wait for all components to cool down.

If any error messages appear, call the service centre.

Minimum diameter of pot/pan base for the different cooking areas

To ensure that the hob functions properly, use pots of a suitable minimum

diameter (refer to the drawing below).

Always use the cooking zone that best corresponds to the minimum

diameter of the bottom of the pot.

Place the pot making sure it is well centered on the cooking zone in use.

It is recommended not to use pots that exceed the perimeter of the cooking

zone in use.

ADAPTER FOR POTS/PANS UNSUITABLE FOR INDUCTION

Using this accessory makes it possible to use pots and pans that are not

suitable for induction hobs. It is important to bear in mind that using it

affects efficiency and, consequently, the time needed to heat food. Its

use should be limited because the temperatures reached on its surface

depend significantly on the pot/pan used, its flatness and the type of food

being cooked. Using a pot or pan with a smaller diameter than the adapter

disc may cause heat to build up that is not transmitted to the pot or pan,

which could blacken both the hob and the disc. Adapt the diameter of

your pots/pans and the hob to the diameter of the adapter.

To set the power of the hob:

Once you have connected the device to the mains power supply, you can

set the power level within 60 seconds.

Press the "+" button for at least 3 seconds. The display shows "PL".

Press the

to confirm.

Use the "+" and "−" buttons to select the desired power level.

The power levels available are: 2.5 kW – 4.0 kW – 6.0 kW – 7.2 kW.

Confirm by pressing

The power level selected will stay in the memory even if the power supply

is interrupted.

To change the power level, disconnect the appliance from the mains for at

least 60 seconds, plug it back in, and repeat the above steps.

If an error occurs during the setting sequence, the "EE" symbol will appear,

and you will hear a beep. If this happens, repeat the operation.

If the error persists, contact the After-Sales Service.

ACOUSTIC SIGNAL ON/OFF

To switch the acoustic signal on/off:

•

Connect the hob to the power supply;

•

Wait for the switch-on sequence;

•

Within 60 seconds, press the buttons "+" and

least 5 seconds.
