ELEMENT AND CONTROL SETTING

Circular mechanical component with internal vertical slots and a central slot (no text or symbols)

Control knobs and power level adjusting

The placement of each knob corresponds to the placement of the induction element that it controls.

To turn on any, PUSH and TURN the knob clockwise to the required setting, of the according cooking zone can be increased between a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 9. To reduce the power of the cooking zone again it is necessary to turn the knob anticlockwise.

The current power level is displayed on the display unit of the hob.

TIMER FUNCTION (FOR 36" ONLY)

Timer function setting

NOTE: the timer is only intended as an acoustic advisor that recalls the attention of the user.

Timers have no effect on the heating elements. Cooking zones must always be stopped manually by rotating the knob in the corresponding [OFF] position.

It's possible to set the timer from 1 to 9h59 minutes: it beeps when the time has run out. This function is always available and is indicated by the clock symbol "H" which is located in the middle of cooktop above the power setting displays.

Timer setting

• Push the Timer knob until "H000" appears, the first two digits H0 start to blink, turn the knob left/right in order to set the timer value (Hour), press the knob again to set the minutes following the same procedure, confirm the timer value by pressing the knob.
• Pushing the knob before the time is expired is possible pause it (P is displayed), then restart it by pressing the knob again.
• To delete the timer setting keep pressed the knob for about 3 second until the display value disappears.

Melting function

If the knob is turned clockwise from zero position the first "power level" reached is the melting function. The according 7 segment display unit shows this "u" symbol. The melting function is used to heat up the bottom of the pot (40°C inside the pot). This function is used to melt food. The maximum time for using the melting function is limited to 2 hours.

Warming function

The warming function is the second "power level" which will be selected when turning the knob clockwise. The according 7 segment display unit shows this "U" symbol. The warming function is used to heat up the bottom of the pot to 70^ (65°C inside the pot). Using this function the food can be kept warm or it can be used to warm up food gently. The maximum time for using the warming function is limited to 2 hours.

Automatic Heat Up time function

To activate the heat up time automatic press and turn the knob counterwise in overwind position "A" until and the "A" symbol on the display starts blinking waiting for an input. Within the next 10s a valid cooking level has to be selected from 1 to 8. This will be the cooking level after a defined time of higher power output at level 9. The 7 segment display alternates between "A" and the selected cooking level. If the knob is turned clockwise by selecting level 0, level 9, (warming, melting) or in any position counterwise the automatic heat up function will be turned off.

Booster function

To activate the boost function press and turn the knob clockwise in overwind position "P" until a beep sounds. The symbol is as shown "P" and will be displayed. After 10 minutes the boost function will be automatically switched off and the "P" is not shown on the display anymore and the induction control will be set automatically at level 9.

Cookware recognition function

The cooking level of cooking zone can be selected by turning the knob to the according position even if no pot is in place. The output of power starts automatically as soon as an appropriate pot is put on the cooking zone. If no pot is being detected the display changes to the shown "pot missing" symbol after a short time. This symbol will be shown until a appropriate pot is put on the cooking zone or the maximum time of 10 minutes expired. The same applies if the pot is removed during normal cooking. After 10 minutes without detected pot the cooking zone switches off automatically and can only be activated again after returning the knob into the OFF position.

Control Lock function

The control lock is a device that protects the appliance from accidental or inappropriate use. With all cooking zones turned off, simultaneously press and turn the first two left knobs counterwise in overwind position "A". They need to be hold in that position for a least 2s until the symbols "L" appear on the displays, then release the knobs.

In order to deactivate the CL function repeat the same procedure as for activating. After unlocking all knobs have to be turned back in the zero position (if any knob was in a position different from zero). The control is than off and can be operated as expected.

NOTE: If the knobs are not hold in the OWL position for long enough the CL will not be enabled / displayed. If the knobs are hold in that position for more than 30 seconds the input is considered to be invalid and a error message "Permanent use of key" will be displayed (flash symbol ).

Residual Heat indication

Cooking zones which are already switched off can still have a hot glass surface. In order to warn and protect users from burning themselves this condition is visualized, the residual heat measurement is done from the temperature sensor of each inductive cooking zone.. When the measured temperature drops below 60°C on the glass the symbol indicating the hot surface disappears.

EN 6 - Advice on cooking

Some traditional methods of cooking, such as double boiler (bain-marie) for creams, sauces, chocolate, etc. are no longer necessary, because now you can cook these directly in the pan, thanks to perfect power regulation and even temperature distribution of the induction system.

You can use the "Booster" function with water and soups until they boil, then use a lower level immediately to avoid too much steam and to save energy.

When frying heat the oil to the highest power level, then turn down if needed to a medium level when adding food to the pan.

Always use pots and pans with a proper lid.

Reduce the selected power in the cooking area in time, in the case of water do not let it boil unnecessarily for too long.

Always choose containers of an adequate size for the amount of food to be cooked. A large pot which is not completely full consumes a lot of energy.

For the best cooking results, metal pots and pans with a flat bottom are recommended. Make sure the bottom of the pan corresponds with the cooking area indicated on the glass.

To save energy cook vegetables and potatoes in a small amount of water. Do not heat empty pans otherwise they may be damaged and can also ruin the glass cooking area.

Before using the cooktop for the first time

• All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have remained from the manufacturing process.
• Clean your glass top before the first time you use it. A thorough cleaning with a glass top cleaner is recommended. It only takes a minute and puts a clean, shiny coating on the glass top before its initial use.
• There may be a slight odour during the first several uses: this is normal and will disappear.
• Optimum cooking result depends on the proper cookware being selected and used.
  • The cooking surface will hold the heat and remain hot over 20 minutes after the elements have been turned off.
• The glass ceramic cooking surface is a durable material resistant to impact but not unbreakable if a pan or other object is dropped on it.
• Do nor allow pans to boil dry. This can damage the pan, element and /or cooktop.
• Do not slide cookware across cooking surface it may scratch the glass

Power Sharing

One generator controls 2 elements, or two/three cooking zones within a heating section share the power of one generator. Power Sharing is activated when both elements in the same cooking zone are activated and one element is set for Boost (P). The element that is not set for Boost will change to a lower power level. This is called Power Sharing: The latest set cooking level has priority.

36"

Four white circles with arrows pointing inward toward each, arranged in concentric circles on a gray background (no text or symbols)

IMPORTANT

Automatic Switch OFF

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

Depending on the chosen cooking level a maximum operation time limitation is defined, the safety device will be activated only if no change of cooking level is done. If this maximum operating time is exceeded on a cooking zone this cooking zone is being switched off, a short beep sounds and if the zone is hot the "residual heat" symbol is showed. In order to reactivate this cooking zone the control knob has to be turned back into OFF position.

IMPORTANT

Overheating status of cooking zone

If the hob is used on full power for a long period, the electronics could have trouble cooling down if the room temperature is high. To avoid excessively high temperatures forming in the electronics, the power to the cooking zone is managed automatically to protect itself.

Permanent use of keys

FAULT MESSAGE

H T 8

If the knobs have been kept rotated in the "A" or "P" positions for more than 30 seconds a fault message will appear on the display.

Cookware "noise"

When using adjacent elements that are set at certain power level settings, magnetic fields may interact and produce a low whistle or intermitted "hum". Pans that completely cover the element ring will produce less noise. A low "humming" noise is normal particularly on high settings. These noise can be reduced or eliminated by lowering or raising the power level settings of one or both of the elements.

How INDUCTION heating works

There is an electronic circuit inside the induction hob which powers and commands a coil. This creates a magnetic field which activates when it comes into contact with suitable pots and pans (magnetic material).

The pan on the hob warms up instantly, while the hob remains cold.

There is no loss of heat. The heat generated in the pan lets you cook quickly, saving time and emergy.

Pan heating Magnetic field Induction plate Pan in magnetic material With pan the cooking area is activated Without pan the cooking area is not activated

Pots and pans and how to use them

ATTENTION

There is an electronic circuit inside the induction hob must be made of ferromagnetic material. They can be made of enamaled steel, cast iron or special pans of stainless steel for induction.

To make sure a pan is suitable, try using a magnet to see if it sticks to the bottom of the pan. Never use normal thin steel nor anything containing even just an amount of glass, terracotta, copper or aluminum.

The display of the cooking area will show if the pan is suitable, if the power Indicator flashes the pan is not suitable or the diameter of the bottom is too small for the diameter of the cooking area.

The pots and pans must be placed precisely in the middle of the cooking area.

In some cooking areas an internal diameter is indicated, with a lighter outline.

NOTE: Dual Size Surface Cooking Area (C-D)

The dual size surface cooking area contains two cooking areas.

If the size of the pan is the same as the single size surface cooking area, the cooking area will work as a single size cooking area.

If the size of the pan is the same as the dual size surface cooking area, the dual size cooking area will activate automatically.

CAUTION

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the cooktop.

Apply a small amount of cooktop cleaning specific ceramic crème on a daily basis. this provides a protective film that makes it easy to remove water spots or food spatters. The temperature of the cooking surface reduces the protective qualities of this cleaner.

It must be reapplied before each use. Use a clean cloth and apply cooktop cleaning crème before each use to remove dust or metal marks that can occur on the counter level surface between uses.
