A lower setting is required if: - cooking food which has a tendency to burn easily (start with a lower setting - the setting can be increased if necessary). - a spill occurs (remove the lid or remove the pan, then reduce the setting).

• Energy saving: To finish the cooking, set at position 0, leaving the cookware in position to use the accumulated heat (this will save energy). Use a lid as often as possible to reduce heat loss by evaporation.

• Automatic regulation of rings The rings are regulated automatically; they switch on and off to maintain the selected power level. The temperature thus remains uniform and appropriate for cooking your food. The regulation frequency varies according to the selected power level.

3 / MAINTAINING YOUR APPLIANCE

• CARING FOR YOUR APPLIANCE

Do not store cleaning products or flammable products in the cabinet underneath your cooking hob. Do not reheat an unopened tin: it might explode. Of course, this precaution applies to all types of cooking. For cooking, never use aluminium foil. Never place items wrapped in aluminium foil or packaged in aluminium dishes on your cooking hob. The aluminium will melt and permanently damage your cooking appliance. Objects not intended for cooking should never be placed on the hob (risk of powering on, scratches, etc.). Steam cleaning should never be used. The steam jet could damage your hob. Avoid hard shocks from cookware: The vitroceramic glass surface is highly resistant, but not unbreakable. Do not place any hot lids flat on your cooking hob. A “sucker” effect might damage the vitroceramic top. Avoid rubbing cookware: in the long term this might cause damage to the decoration of the vitroceramic top. Do not place cookware on your frame or trimmings (depending on model). Avoid using cookware with rough or bumpy bottoms: they can capture and transfer particles that may produce stains or scratches on your hob. These faults, which do not prevent operation or unsuitability for use, are not covered by the guarantee.
