Table of maximum power consumption
* power levels are approximate and may vary according to the pan used or the settings.
Advantages of induction cooking • Energy saving due to the direct
transmission of energy to the pan
(special cookware made of
magnetizable materials is required)
compared to traditional electric cooking.
• Greater safety, as energy is only
transmitted to the pan placed on the
cooktop.
• High efficiency energy transmission from
the induction cooking zone to the base
of the pan.
• Rapid heating speed.
• Reduced danger of burns as the cooking
surface is only heated under the base of
the pan; food that overflows does not
stick.

with an induction generator for
each cooking zone. Each
generator, located under the glass
ceramic cooking surface, creates
an electromagnetic field that
induces a thermal current in the
base of the pan. This means the
heat is no longer transmitted from
the cooktop to the pan, but it is
created directly inside the pan by
the inductive current.
Description

Residual heat
If the cooking zone is still hot after being
switched off, the symbol will appear on
the display. The symbol will disappear
when the temperature drops below 140°F
(60°C).
Energy saving tips
• The diameter of the base of the pan must
not be greater than the width of the
cooking zone printed on the cooktop.
• Pans must not be placed outside the
perimeter of the cooktop or over the
front control panel.
• When buying a pan, check whether the
diameter indicated refers to the base or
to the top of the pan, as the top is almost
always larger than the base.
• When preparing dishes with long
cooking times, you can save time and
energy by using a pressure cooker,
which also helps to retain vitamins
contained in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker
contains enough liquid, as overheating
caused by the lack of water could
damage the pan and the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover pans with a
suitable lid.
• Choose the right pan for the quantity of
food to be cooked. A large, half-empty
pan wastes energy.
Improper use
Burn hazard
• Supervise children carefully as they
cannot easily see the residual heat
indicator. In fact, even after being
switched off, the cooking zone remains
hot for a certain period of time. Make
sure that children never touch the
cooktop.
NOTES: Under certain
circumstances, if the cooktop and
an oven are used at the same time,
the maximum power limit of your
electrical system might be
exceeded.

Cleaning and Maintenance
36
3 Cleaning and maintenance
3.1 Warnings
3.2 Surface cleaning
To maintain the surfaces, you must clean
them regularly after each use once they
have cooled down.
3.3 Weekly routine cleaning
Clean and maintain the cooktop once a
week using a standard product for cleaning
glass. Always follow the manufacturer's
directions. The silicone in these products
creates a water- and dirt-repellent
protective film. All the dirt remains on the film
and therefore can be removed easily. Just
wipe the surface with a clean cloth. Make
sure no detergent remains on the cooktop
surface because it will react aggressively
when the cooktop is heated up and can
change its structure.
3.4 Food stains or residues
Any marks left by the use of pans with
aluminum bases can be wiped off with a
damp cloth soaked in vinegar.
Remove any burnt-on residues after
cooking, then rinse with water and dry
thoroughly with a clean cloth.
Grains of sand which may end up on the
cooktop while cleaning lettuce or potatoes
can scratch the cooktop when you move
pans around.
Therefore, make sure that no grains of sand
are left on the cooktop.
Improper use
Risk of damage to surfaces
• Do not use steam jets to clean the
appliance.
• Do not spill sugar or sweet mixtures onto
the cooktop during cooking.
• Do not place materials or substances
which may melt (plastic or aluminum foil)
on the surface during cooking.
• Always keep the cooktop clean and do
not place any objects on the sensor
keys.
• Do not use cleaning products containing
chlorine, ammonia or bleach on the
steel parts or those with metallic surface
finishes (e.g. anodizing, nickel or
chrome plating).
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive
detergents on the glass parts (e.g.
powder products, stain removers or
metal scouring pads). If possible, use
wooden or plastic utensils.
Cleaning and Maintenance
37
EN
Changes in color do not affect the function
and stability of the glass. It is, in fact, not a
question of changes to the cooktop
material, but simply of residues which were
not removed and therefore charred.
Shiny spots can form due to the bases of
pans rubbing on the surface, especially if
they are aluminum, and the use of
unsuitable cleaning agents. They are
difficult to remove using common cleaning
products. You may need to repeat the
cleaning process several times. Using
aggressive detergents or sliding the base of
pans on the surface can, over time, wear
away the decorations of the cooktop and
could cause spots to form.
3.5 What to do if...
The cooktop does not work:
• Check that the cooktop is plugged in
and the main switch is turned on.
• Check that there are no power outages.
• Check that the fuse has not been tripped.
If it has, replace the fuse.
• Check that the thermal-magnetic circuit
breaker of the appliance has not been
tripped. If it has, reset the switch.
The results of cooking are unsatisfactory:
• Check if the cooking temperature is too
high or too low.
The cooktop smokes:
• Allow the cooktop to cool and clean it
after cooking.
• Check that the food has not spilled and
use a larger container if necessary.
The fuses or the thermal-magnetic circuit
breaker of the appliance are triggered
repeatedly:
• Contact Customer Service or an
electrician.
There are fissures and cracks on the
cooktop:
• Switch off the appliance, immediately
disconnect the power supply and call
Customer Service.
