REMAINING HEAT INDICATORS
When the temperature of a cooking zone is still hot, the relevant
indicator lights up on the display to alert you of the hot surface .
Avoid touching the hob surface over the cooking area . Please pay special attention to
children .

cooking zone as indicated in the chapter POWER IGNITION AND ADJUSTMENT OF A
COOKING ZONE .
COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION COOKING
The induction cooking system OPERATES ONLY if using correct cookware suitable for
induction cooking .
The bottom of the pan has to be ferromagnetic to generate the electromagnetic field
necessary for the heating process (meaning a magnet has to stick to the bottom of the
pan) .
Pans made from the following materials are not suitable:
glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, stoneware;
pure stainless steel, aluminium or copper without magnetic bottom .
To check if a pan is suitable or not:
test the bottom of the pan with a magnet: if the magnet sticks, the pan is suitable .
if a magnet is not available pour a small amount of water inside the pan and place the
pan on a cooking zone . Switch on the cooking zone: if the symbol
appears on the cooking zone display (instead of the power level), the pan is not
suitable .
Important note: the cooking zones will not operate if the pan diameter is too small (
pan detection symbol will appear on the cooking zone display) . To correctly use the cooking
zones follow the indications given in the following table .
Induction cooking zone
Cooking zone Ø 160 mm
Cooking zone Ø 200 mm
Pay attention: The pan shall always be centred over the middle of the cooking zone . It
is possible to use oversized pans but the bottom of the pan cannot touch other cooking
zones .
Always use pans with thick, completely flat bottom.
Do not use pans with concave or convex bottom; these could cause overheating of the
cooking zone .
Note: Some types of pans could cause noise when used on an induction cooking zone .
The noise does not mean any failure on the appliance and does not influence the cooking
operation .
Minimum pan diameter recommended
(referred to the bottom of the pan)
110 mm
