fore using your new plate Induction cooking: - Read this guide, paying special attention to the "Safety Instructions". - Remove any protective film that may still be on your induction hob. Induc tion cooking is a safe cooking technology, advanced, efficient and economical. It works by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat directly on the bottom of the baking dishes, rather than indirectly by the heating of the glass surface. The glass is hot because it is warmed by the container.

Iron pot Magnetic circuit Plate glass and ceramic Inductor Induction currentEN-19 A. Use of softkeys Orders respond to the touch, so you do not need to press. Use the round end of your finger, not the tip. You will hear a beep each time an action is recorded. Make sure the keys are always clean and dry, and there is no object (eg. A utensil or cloth) covering. Even a thin film of water can disrupt the use of touch- sensitive keys. B. Choosing the right cookware Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction. You will find the symbol of induction on the packaging or on the bottom of the pan. You can check if your container is adapted by performi

he test of the magnet. Move a magnet towards t

bot tom of the pan. If it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction. If you do not have magnet: Put a little water in the pan. If not flashing on the control panel and the water heater, the pan is appropriate. The cookware made from the following materials are not suitable: pur

stainless steel, aluminum or copper without magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramics and earthenware. Do not use cookware with serrated edges and a curved base.EN-20 Make sure the bottom of your pan is smooth, is flat against the glass and is the same size as the cooking zone. Use pans whose diameter is larger than the screen printing of the selected area. Using a size pot slightly larger than the size of the household will be most effective. If you use a smaller pot, efficiency may be reduced. A less than 140 mm pot may not be detected by the hob. Always center your pan on the hob.

Cooking tips Be careful when frying because oil and grease hot very quickly, especially if you use the Boost function. At extremely high temperatures, oil and grease spontaneously ignite and cause a fire hazard.

When the food arrives to a boil, reduce the temperature setting.

The use of a cover reduces the cooking time and saves energy by trapping heat.

Reduce the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking time.

Start cooking at high temperatures and reduce the setting when the food is heated. Low heat, cooking rice

Simmer is below the boiling point, with approximately 85˚C, when the bubbles just occasionally rise to the surface of the cooking liquid. This is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because the flavors develop without over cooking. Yo

hould also cook based sauces egg and thicken below the boiling point.

Some cooking such as cooking rice by the absorption method, may require

gher setting to make sure that food is cooked properly in a recomm ended dur ation. Searing steaks To cook tasty juicy steaks:

1. Place the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.

2. Heat a frying pan with a thick bottom.

3. Brush both sides of steaks with oil. Sprinkle a little oil in the hot pan and the

emove the meat in the hot frying pan.EN-31

4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time depends on

the thickness of the steak and cooking you want. The time may vary from about 2 to 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to assess how it is cooked - the more firm seems it will be "well done."

5. Let the steak rest on a warm plate for a few minutes so he can relax and become

tender before serving.

1. Choose a flat bottom wok compatible with induction or large skillet.

2. Prepare all the ingredients and equipment. Sauté the food quickly. If you n

o cook large quantities, cook the food into smaller lots.

3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.

4. Cook all meats first, reserve and keep warm.

5. Sauté the vegetables. When hot, crisp, turn the cooking zone to a lower setting,

return the meat to the pan and add your sauce.

6. Mix the ingredients carefully to ensure they are heated inside.

7. Serve immediately.
