PAN DETECTION INDICATOR

Ifadisplayashes alternatelywiththeheatsetting,thismeansthat:

• youhavenotplacedapanonthecorrectcookingzoneor

• thepanyou’reusingisnotsuitableforinductioncookingor

• thepanistoosmallornotproperlycentredonthecookingzone.

No heating takes place unless there is a suitable pan on the cooking zone.

The cooktop will automatically turn off after 10 minutes if no suitable pan is placed on it.

Dual Zone:Whenusingasmallpotonthedualcookingzone,besuretocentreitsothat

theinnerzonewilldetectthepan.Ifthepancoverstheouterzone,thentheouterzonewill

automaticallyswitchon.

Smart Zones:TheSmartZonesarelarge.YoumayplaceseveralsmallpotsontheSmart

Zoneandtheywillbedetectedasiftheywereonelargepot.

IMPORTANT! The whole of the Smart Zone is activated when a pot is detected. This

means that other magnetizable items (such as cutlery) sitting in the cooking zone

will heat up. Never leave cutlery or other magnetizable items on your cooktop.

COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION COOKING

TheinductioncookingsystemOPERATESONLYifusingcorrectcookwaresuitableforinductioncooking.

Thebottomofthepanhastobeferromagnetictogeneratetheelectromagneticeldnecessaryfortheheatingprocess(meaninga

magnethastosticktothebottomofthepan).

Pansmadefromthefollowingmaterialsarenotsuitable:

• glass,wood,porcelain,ceramic,stoneware;

• purestainlesssteel,aluminiumorcopperwithoutmagneticbottom.

Tocheckifapanissuitableornot:

• testthebottomofthepanwithamagnet:ifthemagnetsticks,thepanissuitable.

• ifamagnetis notavailablepourasmall amountofwaterinsidethepanand placethepanona cookingzone.Switchonthe

cookingzone:ifthesymbol

(pandetection)appearsonthecookingzonedisplay(alternatelywiththeheatsetting),thepanis

notsuitable.

Quality of cookware - IMPORTANT!

• Thequalityofyourcookwarecanaffectcookingperformance.Onlyuseinduction-compatiblecookwarethathasbeenspecically

designedforinductioncooking.Lookfortheinductionsymbolonthepackagingorthebottomofthepan.

• Cookwarethathasahighcontentofferromagneticmaterialthatcontinuesupfromthebaseintothesidesofthepanwillgivethe

bestcookingperformance.

Quickest heating performance:Highcontentofferromagneticmaterial.Heatingareaisconsistentacrossthebaseandcontinuesup

thesidesofpan.

Average heating performance:Reducedareaofferromagneticmaterial.Reducedzoneofheating,resultsinpoorcookingperformance

andslowerheating.

Slow heating performance:Verylimitedareaofferromagneticmaterial.Resultsinveryslowheatingperformance.Note:thistypeof

potisgoodforverydelicatetaskssuchasmeltingchocolate,asheatingisveryslow.

Important note:thecookingzoneswillnotoperateifthepandiameteristoosmall(

pandetectionsymbolwillappearonthecooking

zonedisplay,alternatelywiththeheatsetting).Tocorrectlyusethecookingzonesfollowtheindicationsgiveninthefollowingtable.

Induction cooking zone Minimum pan diameter recommended

DoubleZone

5”(125mm)(innerzone)

9

7/8”(250mm)(dualzone)

SmartZones

5

11/16”(145mm)(un-bridged)

95/8”(245mm)(bridged)

Alwaysusepanswiththick,completelyatbottom.

Donotusepanswithconcaveorconvexbottom;thesecouldcauseoverheatingofthecookingzone.

Notes:

• Sometypesofpanscouldcausenoisewhenusedonaninductioncookingzone.Thenoisedoesnotmeananyfailureonthe

applianceanddoesnotinuencethecookingoperation.

• Itisnormalifthecooktopmakesalowhummingnoisewhenusedonahighheatsetting(especially“PowerBoost”),thisiscausedby

thetechnologyofinductioncooking,butthenoiseshouldquietendownordisappearcompletelywhenyoudecreasetheheatsetting.

HOT SURFACE INDICATORS

Whenthetemperatureofacookingzoneisstillhot,therelevant remainingheatindicatorlightsuponthedisplaytoalertyouofthehot

surface.

Avoidtouchingthehobsurfaceoverthecookingarea.Pleasepayspecialattentiontochildren.

Whenthe

islitonthedisplay,itisstillpossibletostartcookingagain;justturnthecontrolknobtotherequiredpowerlevel.
