Induction The induction principle An induction coil is located under each cooking zone. When a cooking zone is switched on, this coil creates a magnetic field which impacts directly on the base of the pan and heats it up. The cooking zone itself is heated up indirectly by the heat given off by the pan.
Induction Noises When using an induction cooking zone, the following noises can occur in the pan, depending on what it is made of and how it has been constructed. – On the higher power settings, it might buzz. This will decrease or cease altogether when the power setting is reduced.
Induction Pans Suitable pans include: – stainless steel pans with a magnetic base – enamelled steel pans – cast iron pans Unsuitable pans: – stainless steel pans without a magnetic base – aluminium and copper pans – glass, ceramic or earthenware pots and pans To test whether a pot or pan is suitable for use on an induction hob, hold a magnet to the base of the pan.
Operation How the hob is operated The hob is equipped with electronic sensor controls which react to finger contact. To operate the hob, touch the relevant sensor. Each time you touch a sensor, an audible tone sounds. In order to set or alter a power level or the time, the cooking zones and the timer must be "active".
Operation Switching on The hob must be switched on before any of the zones can be used. Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is being used. To switch the hob on ^ Touch the s sensor. 0 will appear in each of the cooking zone displays. If no further entry is made, the hob will switch itself off after a few seconds for safety reasons.
Operation Power level range The appliance is delivered with 9 power levels programmed as standard. If you wish to fine-tune a setting, you can extend the power level range (see "Programming"). The intermediate setting will be represented by an illuminated dot next to the number.
Operation Auto heat-up When Auto heat-up has been activated, the cooking zone switches on automatically at the highest power setting and then switches to the continued cooking setting selected. The heat-up time depends on which continued cooking setting has been chosen (see chart). To activate Auto heat-up ^ Touch the sensor for selecting the cooking zone you want.
Operation Booster function The cooking zones are equipped with a Booster or WaterBoost (see "Guide to the appliance"). When activated, the power is boosted for 15 minutes so that large quantities can be heated quickly, e.g. when boiling water for cooking pasta. The booster function can either be used on the left or the right cooking zone.
Page 29
Operation To switch on the Booster ^ Touch the sensor for selecting the cooking zone you want. ^ Select a power level if you wish. ^ Touch the B I/II sensor. The indicator lamp for the booster lights up, and h starts to flash in the display.
Operation Keeping warm function Each cooking zone has a keeping warm function ("h"). The "h" function is in between the "0" setting and the "1" setting. If the keeping warm function has been activated, the cooking zone will switch off automatically after a maximum of 2 hours. This function is for keeping food that has just been cooked warm, i.e.
Operation Switching off and residual heat indicators Switching off a cooking zone ^ Touch the sensor for selecting the cooking zone you want twice. A 0 will flash in the cooking zone display for a few seconds. If the cooking zone is still hot, the residual heat indicator will then appear in the display.
