1...9 Power level Selection of the cooking level.

U Pan detection No pan or inadequate pan.

E Error message Electronic failure.

H Residual heat The heating zone is hot.

P Booster The boosted power is activated.

L Locking Control panel locking.

Ventilation

The cooling system operates continuously. He starts when turning on the hob and speeds up when the hob is used intensively. The cooling fan reduces its speed and stops automatically when the electronic circuit is cooled enough.

STARTING-UP AND APPLIANCE MANAGEMENT

Before the first use

Clean your hob with a damp cloth, and then dry the surface thoroughly. Do not use detergent which risks causing blue-tinted colour on the glass surface.

Induction principle

An induction coil is located under each heating zone. When it is engaged, it produces a variable electromagnetic field which produces inductive currents in the ferromagnetic bottom plate of the pan. The result is a heating-up of the pan located on the heating zone.

Of course the pan has to be adapted:

• All ferromagnetic pans are recommended (please verify it thanks a little magnet): cast iron and steel pans, enamelled pans, stainless-steel pans with ferromagnetic bottoms...
• Are excluded: cupper, pure stainless-steel, aluminium, glass, wood, ceramic, stoneware,...

The induction heating zone adapts automatically the size of the pan. With a too small diameter the pan doesn't work. This diameter is varying in function of the heating zone diameter. If the pan is not adapted to the induction hob the display will show [U].

Sensitive touch

Your ceramic hob is equipped with electronic controls with sensitive touch keys. When your finger presses the key, the corresponding command is activated. This activation is validated by a control light, a letter or a number in the display and/or a “beep” sound.

In the case of a general use press only one key at the same time.

Starting-up

You must first switching on the hob, then the heating zone:

- Start-up/ switch off the hob :

Action	Control panel	Display
To start	Press key [ ]	[0]	1
Touch the key	Press key [ ]	Nothing 2 [H]

- Start-up/ switch off a heating zone :

Increase power	Press key [ + ]	[1] to [9]
Decrease power	Press key [- ]	[9] to [1]
Stop	Press key [- ] or press
		simultaneously [ □ and [- ] [0] or [H]

If no action is made within 20 second the electronics returns in waiting position.

Pan detection

The pan detection ensures a perfect safety. The induction doesn't work:

• If there is no pan on the heating zone or if this pan is not adapted to the induction. In this case it is impossible to increase the power and the display shows [U]. This symbol disappears when a pan is put on the heating zone.
• If the pan is removed from the heating zone the operation is stopped. The display shows [U]. The symbol [U] disappears when the pan is put back to the heating zone. The cooking continues with the power level set before.

After use, switch the heat element off: don't let the pan detection [U] active.

Residual heat indication

After the switch off of a heating zone or the complete stop of the hob, the heating zones are still hot and indicates [H] on the display.

The symbol [H] disappears when the heating zones may be touched without danger.

As far as the residual heat indicators are on light, don't touch the heating zones and don't put any heat sensitive object on them. There are risks of burn and fire.

Booster function

The booster function [P] grants a boost of power to the selected heating zone.

If this function is activated the heating zones works during 10 minutes with an ultra high power.

The booster is foreseen for example to heat up rapidly big quantities of water, like nuddles cooking.

Power Management

The hob is equipped with a power limitation. If you reach the maximum power it will be impossible to increase the power on the different cooking zones and a beep signal will sound. This limitation is set at 7400 W by the factory but it is possible to change it to 3000 W, 5600 W or 7400 W.

Power limitation configuration

Before beginning the procedure:

• Make sure there is no more pot on the hob
- Disconnect the appliance from the grid by removing the fuse or turning the circuit breaker off.
- Reconnect the table to the grid
- Start the procedure within 2 minutes after reconnecting the hob to the grid
• Make sure all cooking zones are off.

Procedure:

To set the power limitation, you must:

1) Press simultaneously the two key of the bottom zones during 3 seconds. A beep will sound and the current power is displayed.

2) To set the power limitation use the [ + ] and [- ] . To exit the procedure without saving your changes, don't touch any key for 60 seconds.
3) To save the new power limitation, re-press the two key of the bottom zones during 3 seconds. Once the new limitation registered, a beep will sound.

Pan quality

Adapted materials : steel, enamelled steel, cast iron, ferromagnetic stainless-steel, aluminium with ferromagnetic bottom.

Not adapted materials : aluminium and stainless-steel without ferromagnetic bottom, cupper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.

The manufacturers specify if their products are compatible induction.

To check if pans are compatibles :

• Put a little water in a pan placed on an induction heating zone set at level [9]. This water must heat in a few seconds.
  • A magnet stucks on the bottom of the pan.

Certain pans can make noise when they are placed on an induction cooking zone. This noise doesn't mean any failure on the appliance and doesn't influence the cooking operating.
