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.
• 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. Levels set by the automatic control will appear on the display.

Priority is given to the first zone that is set.

The power control module does not affect the total power consumption of the appliance.

3.3 Using the hob

All the appliance's control and monitoring devices are located together on the front panel. The induction hob is controlled by means of the Touch control sensor buttons. Lightly touch a symbol on the glass ceramic surface. A beep will sound to confirm every effective touch.

Switching on the hob for the first time

On first connection to the electrical mains, an automatic check will be carried out that will switch on all indicator lights for a few seconds.

When the appliance is used for the first time, after having been connected to the

mains the flashing symbol appears on the display. It is used to access the appliance's technical menu and is intended only for Technical Support personnel.

List of symbols

On/Off button: turns the hob on or off.

Pause button: pauses cooking.

Controls lock button: prevents accidental operation of controls.

Grill function button: activates the Grill function

Warming function button: activates the keep warm function.

Scroll bar: increases or decreases the power level of a cooking zone.

Cooking zones setting area

The buttons for selecting the cooking zones and the timer icons above each of them are located in this zone.

Timer setting area

The controls for setting the independent timer and the timer for the cooking zones are located in this area.

Minimum cookware diameter

Make sure that the minimum diameter of the pans are those indicated in the following table, for both configurations.

Configuration	∅minimum (cm)
Single plate 9 - 11
Multizone 21 - 23
Zone 1 9 - 11
Zone 2 7 - 9

Bear in mind the following:

• Do not allow the pans to extend beyond the vertical lines.
• Do not cover the control panel.
• Do not place the pans next to the edges of the glass.
• If you use a griddle, it must be a maximum of 36 x 24 cm and must anyway not be larger than the zones marked on the hob (see "Maximum power consumption table")

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.

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 pan, place it on a cooking zone and start the hot plate.

If the symbol appears on the display, it means the pan is not suitable.

Use only cookware with a perfectly flat bottom which is suitable for induction hot plates. Using cookware with an irregular bottom could jeopardise the efficiency of the heating system and prevent cookware from being detected on the hot plate.

Make sure that the pans do not cover the control panel.

Limiting the cooking duration

The hob has an automatic device which limits the duration of use.

If the cooking zone settings are not changed, the maximum duration of operation for each zone depends on the power level selected.

When the device for limiting the duration of use is activated, the cooking zone turns off, a short alert sounds and, if the zone is hot,

the symbol appears on the display.

Set power level	Maximum cooking duration in hours
1	8 1/2
2	6 1/2
3	5 1/2
4	4 1/2
5	3 1/2
6	1 1/2
7	1 1/2
8	1 1/2
9	1 1/2

Protection from overheating

If the hob is used on full power for a long period, the electronics will have trouble cooling down if the room temperature is high.

If the temperature of the internal electronic components exceeds the safety threshold, the appliance will switch off automatically and "ER21" will be displayed (see "Error codes").

Advice on energy-saving

• The diameter of the base of the pan must not exceed the width of the silk-screened cooking zone.
• Pans must not be placed outside the perimeter of the hob or above the front control panel.
• When buying a pan, check whether the diameter indicated is that of the base or the top of the pan, as the top is almost always larger than the base.
• When preparing dishes with long cooking times, you can save time and energy by using a pressure cooker, which also helps to retain vitamins contained in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker contains enough liquid as, if there is not enough and it overheats, this may cause damage to both the pressure cooker and the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover pans with a suitable lid.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of food to be cooked. A large, half-empty saucepan leads to a waste of energy.

Under certain circumstances, if the hob and the oven are being used at the same time, the maximum power limit that can be used by the electrical system might be exceeded.

Power levels

The power in the cooking zone can be adjusted to various levels. The table shows the levels suitable for various types of cooking.

Power level Suitable for:

4 Cleaning and maintenance

4.1 Instructions

Improper use Risk of damage to surfaces

• Do not use steam jets to clean the appliance.
• Do not spill sugar or sweet mixtures on the hob during cooking.
• Do not place materials or substances that could melt (plastic or aluminium foil).
• Keep sensor buttons clean at all times and do not rest any object on them.
• Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach on parts made of steel or that have metallic surface finishes (e.g. anodizing, nickel- or chromium-plating).
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (e.g. scouring powders, stain removers and metallic sponges) on glass parts. Use wooden or plastic utensils.

4.2 Cleaning the surfaces

To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.

4.3 Ordinary weekly cleaning

Clean and maintain the hob once a week using an ordinary glass cleaning product. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions. The silicon in these products creates a protective, water-repellent membrane which also resists dirt. All marks stay on the membrane and can therefore be removed easily. After cleaning, dry the surface with a clean cloth. Make sure that there is no detergent left on the cooking surface as it will undergo a corrosive reaction when heated up and could modify the structure of the cooking surface.

4.4 Food stains or residues

Light coloured marks from pans with aluminium bases can be easily cleaned off with a cloth moistened in vinegar.

Remove any burnt-on residues after cooking; then rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.

Dirt which may have fallen on the hob while cleaning lettuce or potatoes can scratch the hob when moving pans.

Consequently, remove any dirt from the cooking surface immediately.

Changes in colour do not affect the operation and stability of the glass. These are not alterations to the material of the hob but just residues which have not been removed and have then carbonised.

Shiny surfaces can form due to the bases of pans, especially aluminium ones, rubbing on the surface, and due to the use of unsuitable detergents. They are difficult to remove using conventional cleaning products. It may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process several times. Use of corrosive detergents or rubbing of pan bases can wear away the decoration on the hob over time and contribute to the formation of stains.

4.5 What to do if...

The hob does not work:

• Make sure that the hob is connected and that the main switch is turned on. • Make sure that there is no power failure. - Make sure that the fuse has not blown. In this case, replace the fuse. - Make sure that the circuit breaker of the residential electrical system has not tripped. In this case, reset the circuit breaker.

The cooking results are unsatisfactory:

- Make sure that the cooking temperature is not too high or too low.

The hob smokes:

• Let the hob cool down and clean it once cooking is complete.
• Make sure that the food has not spilled out of the pan and use a larger cooking vessel, if needed.

The fuses blow or the circuit breaker of the residential electrical system trips repeatedly.

- Call Technical Support or an electrician.

There are cracks or fissures in the hob:

- Turn off the appliance immediately, disconnect the power supply and contact Technical Support.
