USE
Using the hob
The induction cooking system is based on the physical phenomenon of magnetic induction. The main characteristic of this system is
the direct transfer of energy from the generator to the pot.
Advantages:
When compared to electric hobs, your induction hob is:
- Safer: lower temperature on the glass surface.
- Faster: shorter food heating times.
- More accurate: the hob immediately reacts to your commands
- More efficient: 90% of the absorbed energy is transformed into heat. Moreover, once the pot is removed from the hob, heat
transmission is immediately interrupted, avoiding unnecessary heat losses.
IMPORTANT: if the pots are not correctly sized, the cooking zones will not turn on
For details of the minimum pot diameter that needs to be used on each zone, see the illustrated part of this manual.
Important:
to avoid permanent damage to the hob surface, do not use:
- containers with less than perfectly flat bottoms.
- metal containers with enamelled bottoms.
- containers with a rough base, to avoid scratching the hob surface.
- never place hot pots and pans on the surface of the hob's control panel
Use only pots bearing the symbol
Induction cooking uses magnetism to generate heat. Containers must therefore contain iron. Check if the pot material is magnetic
using a magnet. Pots are not suitable if they are not magnetically detectable.
Using the extractor fan
The extraction system can be used in two versions: external extraction and evacuation or as a filter with internal recirculation.
Extraction version
Fig.7
The fumes are evacuated towards the outside through a series of pipes (bought separately) fastened to the supplied connecting
flange.
The diameter of the exhaust pipe must be equivalent to the diameter of the connecting ring:
- for rectangular outlets 222 x 89 mm
- for circular outlets Ø 150 mm (*)
For more information, see the page relative to the extraction version in the illustrated part of this manual.
Fig.7c
Connect the product to wall-mounted exhaust pipes and holes with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connecting flange).
Using wall-mounted exhaust pipes and holes with a smaller diameter may reduce the efficiency of extraction and drastically increase
noise levels.
All responsibility in this regard is therefore denied.
! Use ducting with the minimal indispensable length.
! Use ducting with the least possible number of curves (maximum angle: 90°).
! Avoid drastic changes in the ducting diameter.
