are not capable of using this appliance, should not do so

without the supervision of a responsible adult.

Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play

with the appliance.

Fan care

Malfunction risk!

Oil and fat too hot

Risk of fire!!

The bottom of the hob is equipped with a fan. If there is a

drawer under the hob it should not be used to store small

objects or paper, since they could damage the fan or interfere

with the cooling if they are sucked into it.

Oil or fat that is too hot quickly catches fire. Do not leave

overheated oil or fat unwatched. If the oil or fat catches fire,

never use water to put it out. Extinguish the flames with a lid or

a plate. Switch off the hotplate.

Caution!

There should be a minimum distance of 2 cm between the

drawer and the fan entrance.

Cooking food using the bain-marie method

Incorrect repairs

The bain-marie method allows you to cook food in a saucepan

submerged in a larger pan containing water. The water cooks

the food with a gentle and constant heat, rather than directly

from the heat of the hotplate. When cooking food in bain-marie,

you must prevent tins, glass containers or other material from

resting directly on the base of the pan containing the water, to

prevent the glass on the hob and the pan from breaking due to

hotplate reheating.

Risk of electric shock!!

Poor repairs are dangerous. Switch off the appliance if it is

faulty. Contact the Technical Assistance Service. Repairs and

the replacement of faulty connection cables may only be

performed by qualified personnel from the Technical

Assistance Service.

not wait until the hob turns off automatically after the pan is

removed.

Elements that may damage the appliance

Caution!

■ Hard or pointed objects dropped on the hob may damage it.

■ Rough pan bases may scratch the hob.

■ Aluminium foil and plastic containers will melt if placed on the

hotplate while it is hot. The use of laminated sheeting is not

recommended on the hob.

■ Avoid leaving empty pots and pans on the hotplate. Doing so

may cause damage.

■ Do not place hot pans on the control panel, the indicator

area, or the hob frame. Doing so may cause damage.

Protecting the environment

Unpack the appliance and dispose of its packaging in such a

way that no damage is caused to the environment.

Energy-saving advice

■ Always place the correct lid on the pan. Cooking with an

uncovered pan will result in a four-fold increase in energy

use.

Environmentally-friendly disposal of waste

products

■ Use pans equipped with a solid, flat bottom. Curved pan

bases increase energy consumption.

This appliance conforms to the Waste Electrical and

Electronic Equipment Directive WEEE 2002/96/EC.

This directive defines the framework for recycling used

appliances within European territory

■ The diameter of the pan base must coincide with the

diameter of the hotplate. This generally means the pan base

diameter is greater than that of the hotplate. If the diameter of

the pan is not the same as the diameter of the hotplate, it is

preferable to use a pan with a bottom that is larger in

diameter than the hotplate, otherwise half the energy will be

wasted. Please note: Whether the cookware manufacturer

has indicated the diameter of the top of the pan.

■ Choose pans of a size suited to the amount of food you are

going to cook. A large pan that is only half full will use a great

amount of energy.

■ Use a small amount of water when cooking. This saves

energy, and vegetables retain their vitamins and minerals.

■ Select a lower power level.

Induction cooking

Characteristics of the pan base

Advantages of induction cooking

The characteristics of the pan base may affect the uniformity of

the cooking results. Pans made from materials which help

diffuse heat, such as stainless steel sandwich pans, distribute

heat uniformly, saving time and energy.

Induction cooking represents a radical change from the

traditional method of heating; the heat is generated directly in

the pan. It therefore offers a number of advantages:

■ Time savings for cooking and frying; since the pan is heated

directly.

Absence of pan or unsuitable size

If no pan is placed on the selected hotplate, or if it is made of

unsuitable material or is not the correct size, the power level

displayed on the hotplate indicator will flash. Place a suitable

pan on the hotplate to stop the flashing. If this takes more than

90 seconds, the hotplate will switch off automatically.

■ Energy is saved.

■ Care and cleaning are simpler. Foods that have spilt do not

burn as quickly.

■ Heat and safety control; the hob supplies or cuts off power

immediately when the control knob is turned on. The

induction hotplate stops supplying heat if the pan is removed

without having previously switched it off.

Empty pans or those with a thin base

Do not heat empty pans, nor use pans with a thin base. The

hob is equipped with an internal safety system. However, an

empty pan may heat up so quickly that the "automatic switch

off" function may not have time to react and the pan may reach

very high temperatures. The base of the pan could melt and

damage the glass on the hob. In this case, do not touch the

pan and switch the hotplate off. If it fails to work after it has

cooled down, please contact the Technical Assistance Service.

Suitable pans

Ferromagnetic pans

Only ferromagnetic pans are suitable for induction cooking,

these may be made from:

■ enamelled steel

Pan detection

■ cast iron

Each hotplate has a minimum limit for detecting pans, which

varies depending on the material of the pan being used. You

should therefore use the hotplate that is most suitable for the

diameter of your pan.

■ special cutlery for stainless steel induction pan

To determine whether a pan is suitable, check to see if a

magnet will stick to it.

Special induction pans

Double or triple hotplate

There is another type of pan specially made for induction, the

base of which is not entirely ferromagnetic. Check the diameter,

since this could affect detection of the pan, as well as the

cooking results.

These hotplates can detect pans of different sizes. Depending

on the material and properties of the pan, the hotplate will

adapt automatically, switching on part or all of the hotplate and

supplying sufficient power to obtain good cooking results.

Unsuitable pans

Never use pans made from:

■ common thin steel

■ glass

■ earthenware

■ copper

■ aluminium

A crackling sound

Normal noise while the appliance is working

This noise occurs in pans which are made from different

materials superimposed on one another. It is caused by the

vibrations that occur ajoining surfaces of the different

superimposed materials. The noise comes from the pan. The

amount of food and cooking method can vary.

Induction heating technology is based on the creation of

electromagnetic fields that generate heat directly at the base of

the pan. Depending on how the pan has been manufactured,

these may produce certain noises or vibrations such as those

described below:

A high-pitched whistling sound

A deep humming sound as in a transformer

This noise is produced mainly in pans made from different

materials superimposed on one another, and it occurs when

such pans are heated at maximum power on two hotplates at

the same time. The whistling disappears or becomes fainter as

soon as the power level is lowered.

This noise is produced when cooking on a high power level. It

is caused by the amount of energy transferred from the hob to

the pan. The noise disappears or becomes faint when the

power level is lowered.

A low whistling sound

Noise from the fan

This noise is produced when the pan is empty. It disappears

when water or food is added to the pan.

For proper use of the electronic system, the temperature of the

hob must be controlled. For this purpose, the hob has a fan

that starts working after detecting excess temperatures at

different power levels. The fan may also work due to inertia

after the hob has been switched off, if the temperature detected

is still too high.

The noises described are normal, they are part of induction

heating technology and not a sign of malfunction.
