Saucepan selection

FALMEC Quantum - Saucepan selection - 1

Saucepans suitable for induction hobs:

Only saucepans with a fully magnetic, sufficiently wide and perfectly flat bottom are suitable for use on induction hobs.

The bottom is magnetic if a magnet sticks to every point on the bottom of the saucepan.

Using saucepans with uneven bottoms can make it difficult to detect the saucepan and heat it up.

Suitable saucepans (examples):

  • Thick-bottomed enamelled steel saucepans
  • Cast iron saucepans with enamelled bottom
    • Multi-ply stainless steel saucepans
    • Ferritic stainless steel saucepans

Saucepan bottom size:

Cooking area Minimum size
Single 120mm
Bridge 230mm

natural_image Two kitchen utensils, one with cutlery and the other with a pan, both marked with red X symbols (no text or labels)

Saucepans not suitable for induction hobs:

Saucepans with non-magnetic or partially magnetic bottoms, with a size smaller than the indicated minimum and not perfectly flat are not suitable for use on induction hobs.

Unsuitable saucepans (examples):

• Copper saucepans
• Aluminium saucepans
- Ceramic saucepans
• Terracotta saucepans
• Stainless steel saucepans

Noise during cooking

Saucepans may generate noise during cooking: this is not a malfunction and does not affect the operation of the product.

The noise depends on the type of saucepan and the type of bottom;

If it is particularly unpleasant, it is recommended to replace the saucepan.

Humming, hissing, crackling sounds and vibrations are due to the transfer of energy to the bottom of the saucepan, and are generated by the various materials it is composed of. This noise is produced when cooking on a high power level and decreases as the set power level decreases.

Internal ventilation noise: the appliance is equipped with a ventilation module to adjust the internal temperature of the induction hob. Ventilation can remain on even after switching off the appliance.

  • Use saucepans of appropriate size to the desired cooking area.
  • Always use a saucepan or frying pan on each cooking area, even with the BRIDGE function.
  • Do not place hot saucepans on the sensor keys or the LEDs, as this could cause damage to the electronic components underneath.
  • Keep controls and lamps always clean.
  • Do no keep metal objects directly below the cooker.
  • Possibly use always covers to avoid heat dispersion.
    • Cook with little water.
    • After starting grilling or cooking dishes bring the power level to a lower one.

COOKER HOOD

FUMES DISCHARGE

EXTERNAL EXHAUST HOOD (SUCTION)

FALMEC Quantum - EXTERNAL EXHAUST HOOD (SUCTION) - 1

In this version the fumes and vapours are discharged outside through the exhaust pipe.

To this end, the hood outlet fitting must be connected via a pipe, to an external output.

The outlet pipe must have:

  • a diameter not less than that of the hood fitting.
    • a slight slope downwards (drop) in the horizontal sections to prevent condensation from flowing back into the motor.
    • the minimum required number of bends.
  • the minimum required length to avoid vibrations and reduce the suction performance of the hood.
    • You are required to insulate the pipes if it passes through cold environments.
  • In the presence of motors with 800m ^3 /h or higher, a check valve is present to prevent external air flowing back.

Deviation for Germany:

when the kitchen hood is used at the same time as appliances that are powered by energy other than electricity, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4 x 10-5 bar).

HOOD WITH INTERNAL RECIRCULATION (FILTERING)

FALMEC Quantum - HOOD WITH INTERNAL RECIRCULATION (FILTERING) - 1

In this model, the air passes through the Carbon-Zeo (optional) filters to be purified and recycled in the environment.

Ensure that the Carbon-Zeo filters are assembled into the hood, if not, install them as indicated in the assembly instructions.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

only intended for qualified personnel

FALMEC Quantum - only intended for qualified personnel - 1

The hood can be installed in various configurations. The generic assembly steps apply to all installations; for each case, follow the specific steps provided for the required installation.

OPERATION

WHEN TO TURN ON THE HOOD?

Switch on the hood at least one minute before starting to cook to direct fumes and vapours towards the suction surface.

After cooking, leave the hood operating until complete extraction of all vapours and odours. By means of the Timer function, it is possible to set auto switch-off function which will allow the hood to turn off automatically after 15 minutes of operation.

WHICH SPEED IS TO BE SELECTED?

speed (1-3): maintains the circulation of clean air with low electricity consumption.

speed (4-5): normal conditions of use.

speed (6-7): presence of strong odours and vapours.

speed (8-P): rapid disposal of odours and vapours.

WHEN SHOULD THE FILTERS BE WASHED OR REPLACED?

The metal filters must be cleaned every 30 hours of operation.

The active carbon filters must be replaced every 18 months and replaced every 3 years.

For further details see the "MAINTENANCE" chap.
