Advantages of induction cooking
The appliance 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 pan.
This means the heat is no longer
transmitted from the hob to the pan but
created directly inside the pan by the
inductive current.
• Energy saving thanks to the direct
transmission of energy to the pan (suitable
magnetisable cookware is required)
compared to traditional electric cooking.
• Improved safety as the energy is only
transmitted to the pan placed on the hob.
• High level of energy transmitted from the
induction cooking zone to the base of the
pan.
• Rapid heating speed.

USE

Preliminary operations

See General safety instructions.
• Remove any protective film from the outside
or inside of the appliance, including any
accessories (if present).
• Remove any labels (apart from the technical
data plate).
Cookware suitable for use in induction
cooking
Cookware used on the induction cooking
surface must be made of metal, with magnetic
properties and a sufficiently large base.
Suitable cookware:
• Enamelled steel cookware with thick bases.
• Cast iron cookware with an enamelled
base.
• Cookware in multilayer stainless steel, ferritic
stainless steel and aluminium with a special
base.
Unsuitable cookware:
• Copper, stainless steel, aluminium, fireproof
glass, wood, ceramic and terracotta
cookware.
26 - USE
• Reduced danger of burns as the cooking
surface is only heated under the base of the
pan; foods which overflow do not stick.
Power control
The hob is fitted with a power control module
that optimises/limits consumption. If the overall
set power level exceeds the maximum limit
permitted, the electronic circuit board will
automatically manage the power supplied by
the hot plates. The module tries to maintain the
maximum deliverable power levels. If the
symbol appears it indicates that it is no longer
possible to increase the power level for a
specific cooking zone.
Priority is given to the first zone that is set
in chronological order.
The power control module does not
affect the total power consumption of
the appliance.

Basic functions

First power connection
At the first power connection or after power has
been switched back on after a power failure, an
automatic control is carried out. This control turns
on the indicator lights and the displays for a few
seconds. After that, the controls lock function is
activated automatically, signalled by the lighting
up of controls lock indicator light. Press the
button for at least 2 seconds to switch on the
appliance.
Switching on and off
Press the
button to turn the appliance on. To
turn off the appliance, press the
three beeps sound.

Using the hob

Switching on the cooking zones
After switching on the display:
1. Select the cooking zone to be activated
using the appropriate selection buttons (e.g.:
front zone).
