INDUCTION COOKING SYSTEM
When your induction hob is switched On and a cooking zone has been selected, the
electronic circuits produce induced currents that instantaneously heat the bottom of the
pan which then transfers this heat to the food. Cooking takes place with hardly any energy
loss between the induction hob and the food.
Your induction hob operates only if a correct pan with the right features is placed on a
cooking zone. Please refer to “COOKWARE/COFFEE POT FOR INDUCTION COOKING”.
2323
If the pan detection symbol
appears on the display, your pan is not suitable and your
induction hob will not operate. After 10 minutes without detecting any pan, the cooking
zone switches O automatically.
If the induction cooktop emits a humming noise when a zone is used on a high power level,
this phenomenon is normal as it is caused by the induction cooking tecnology.
The noise should weaken or disappear completely when the power level is decreased.
REMAINING HEAT 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 operate the
cooking zone as indicated in the chapter
POWER IGNITION AND ADJUSTMENT OF A
COOKING ZONE
.
COOKWARE/COFFEE POT FOR INDUCTION COOKING
The induction cooking system OPERATES ONLY if using correct cookware suitable for
induction cooking (normally identied by an induction symbol on the bottom of the cookware/
coee pot). The use of not suitable cookware may cause damage to the appliance.
The bottom of the pan/coee pot 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/coee pot).
Pans/coee pots 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/coee pot is suitable or not:
• Test the bottom of the pan/coee pot 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/coee pot and
place the pan on a cooking zone. Switch on the cooking zone: if the cooking zone display
shows alternately the set power level and
, the pan/coee pot is not suitable .
Important: Do not use pots/coee pot adaptors; this could cause an overheating and
possible damage to the appliance.
Important note: the cooking zones will not operate if the pan/coee pot diameter is too
small. To correctly use the cooking zones follow the indications given in the following table.
Induction cooking zone
Minimum pan diameter recommended
(referred to the bottom of the pan)
Cooking zone 190 x 210 mm 110 mm
Cooking zones Bridged 230 mm
Cooking zone Ø 250 mm 130 mm
2424
IMPORTANT: Some cookware available on the market has an eective ferromagnetic
area which is much smaller than the diameter of the pan itself. Avoid using this cookware
because the induction cooktop may not function properly or may be damaged.
Pay attention: The pan/coee pot shall always be centred over the middle of the cooking
zone. It is possible to use oversized pans/coee pots but its bottom shall not touch the
other cooking zone.
Always use pans/coee pots with thick, completely at bottom.
Do not use pans/coee pots with concave or convex bottom; these could cause overheating
of the cooking zone.
Note: Some types of pans/coee pots could cause noise when used on an induction
cooking zone.
The noise does not mean any failure on the appliance and does not inuence the cooking
operation.
Always lift pans o the induction hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.

MAXIMUM USABLE POWER FOR THE
COOKING ZONES
The cooking zones are controlled by 3 separate
power boards:
The maximum total power per each power
board is 3700 W.
Should the cooking zones of one power board
require more than 3700 W, the last selected
power level has priority and the power of the
other cooking zone is automatically reduced to
the remaining power available.
If this occurs, the cooking zone will display
a ashing gure for about 3 seconds before
automatically displaying the new power level.
This means for example that:
• When setting a “Booster” programme for
the second zone, the setting for the other
zone could be reduced to the remaining
power available.
• When setting a “Booster” programme for
a zone and then another setting on the
second zone, if the total power exceed
3700 W the “Booster” programme is
deleted and the power reduced to the
maximum power available.
THERMAL PROTECTIONS
The induction hob is tted with safety devices
to protect the electronic system and to protect
each cooking zone from overheating.
In case of overheating, one of the following
automatic functions could be started by the
electronic system:
• “Booster” program deleted and power
reduced.
• One or more cooking zone switched O.
• Cooling fan motor of the induction unit
switched On.

This is especially true in the case of sugar/syrup mixtures which could permanently pit
the surface of the hob if left to burn on it.
• Do not put articles on the hob which can melt: i.e plastic, aluminium foil, sugar, sugar
syrup mixtures etc.
• If any of these products has melted on the ceramic surface, you should remove it
immediately (when the surface is still hot) by using a proper scraper to avoid any
permanent damage to the surface of the hob.
• Avoid using a knife or other sharp utensil as these may damage the ceramic surface.
• Do not use steel wool or an abrasive sponge which could scratch the surface
permanently.
STAINLESS STEEL ELEMENTS (only models with side stainless steel trims)
