    1 and 9.. The adjustment is gradual so all the intermediate zones can be used. The lights to the side of the knobs indicate the residual heat: they come on when the electric hot plates exceed 50°C and go off when the temperature falls below this level.
  • Page 9 Do not use cast iron saucepans or saucepans with a rough base, as they may scratch the cooking surface. The diameter of the base of the saucepans must be equal to the diameter of the circle outlining the cooking zone. If not, energy will be wasted.
  • Page 10 Instructions for the user Induction hob Metal objects such as silverware or lids must not be placed on the cooking hob surface as they can become very hot. 5.2.1 Cooking zones The appliance has two cooking zones of various power levels and diameters. Their position is clearly indicated with circles and the heat is limited to within the diameters traced on the glass.
  • Page 11 The booster function will also automatically switch off when the temperature of the hob exceeds the set point of the built-in power controller. If the knob is returned to position P while the booster function is still active, the maximum power value [9] will appear on the display.
  • Page 12 To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If you do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the recipient, place it on a cooking zone and start the hotplate.

  • Page 15 Normal operation of all the cooking zones 80° C Every intervention of this type will be identified on the cooking hob with a flashing light on the power display. 5.3.6 Glass ceramic hob thermal protection Every cooking zone has a device that constantly measures the temperature.
  • Page 16 The purpose of the keep warm function is to regulate the temperature of the bottom of the cookware to approximately 70?. This allows for keeping food warm at the ideal power level, as well as heating slowly. The maximum duration of the keep warm function is limited to 2 hours.
