5. USING THE HOB
5.1 General warnings and advice
On first connection to the power supply network, an operating check will be carried out automatically and
all the indicator lights will come on for a few seconds.
5.2 Control panel
All the appliance's control and monitoring devices are located together on the front panel. The induction
hob is operated using the knobs fitted on it.
5.3 Heating accelerator
Each cooking zone has a heating accelerator. This system lets the hot plate operate at maximum power
for a time that is proportional to the selected power. To start the heating accelerator, turn the knob to the
left, select the "A" position and release. The letter
appears on the cooking hob display. At this point
you have 3 seconds to choose the desired heating position. Once the position has been adjusted
between 1 and 9,
and the selected position will flash on the display. During the heating accelerator's
operation it is possible to increase the heating intensity at any time. The "full power" period will
consequently be modified. On the other hand, if the power is reduced, turn the knob counterclockwise.
The "A" option is automatically disabled.
5.4 Power Function
The power function can be used to cause each heating zone to operate continuously at maximum power
for a maximum period of 10 minutes. Said function, for example, can be used to bring a large quantity of
water to a boil rapidly or to broil meat. Turn the knob clockwise and set the heating intensity on position
9. Select the position "P" with the knob and release.
appears on the hob display of the
corresponding zone.
After 10 minutes the power will be reduced automatically, returning to position 9;
disappears. It is
however possible to interrupt the power function by decreasing at any time the heating intensity. When
the power option is selected on a hot plate (e.g. the front left), the power absorbed by the second hot
plate (rear left) could be reduced to provide the maximum energy available to the first. For the same
reason the power function has priority over the heating accelerator. If a container is removed from the
cooking zone while the power function is turned on, the function stops.
5.5 Residual heat
If the cooking zone is still hot after being switched off, the symbol
will appear on the display. The
symbol clears once the temperature goes below 60°C.
Beware of children in the vicinity as the warning lights indicating residual heat are out of their line of
sight. The cooking zones remain hot for a certain period of time even after they have been turned off.
Make sure that children never touch the hob.
