DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE

Control panel

USE OF THE APPLIANCE

Display

Ventilation

The cooling system is fully automatic. The cooling fan starts with a low speed when the calories brought out by the electronic system reach a certain level. The ventilation starts his high speed when the hob is intensively used. The cooling fan reduces his 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.

Power selection zone “SLIDER” and timer setting zone

To select the power with the slider, slide your finger on the “SLIDER” zone. You can already have a direct access if you put your finger directly on the chosen level.

Starting-up

• Start up / switch off the hob:

• Start up / switch off a heating zone:

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 and Double Booster function

Booster [ P ] and Double Booster [ ] grant a boost of Power to the selected heating zone. If this function is activated the heating zones work during 10 minutes with an ultra high Power. This is foreseen for example to heat up rapidly big quantities of water, like nuddles

• Start up / Stop the Booster:

• Start up / Stop Double Booster

• Power management:

The hole cooking hob is equipped with a maximum of Power. When the Power function is activated, and in order to exceed the maximum Booster, the electronic system orders to reduce automatically the power level of an other heating zone. The display is blinking on [ 9 ] during a few seconds and then shows the maximum of power allowed:

Timer

The timer is able to be used simultaneous with all heating zones and this with different time settings (from 0 to 999 minutes) for each heating zone.

• Setting and modification of the cooking time:

After a few seconds, the [ min ] display stops with blinking.

The time is confirmed and the timer starts.

• To stop the cooking time:

If several timers are activated, repeat the process.

• Egg timer function:

Egg timer is an independent function. It stops as soon as a heating zone starts up. If the egg timer is on and the hob is switched off, the timer continues until time runs out.

After a few seconds, the [ min ] display stops with blinking. The time is confirmed and the timer starts.

• Automatic stop at the end of the cooking time:

As soon as the selected cooking time is finished the timer displays blinking [ 000 ] and a sound rings.

To stop the sound and the blinking, press the key [ - ] and [ + ].

Automatic cooking

All the cooking zones are equipped with an automatic cooking device. The cooking zone starts at full power during a certain time, and then reduces automatically its power on the pre-selected level.

• Start-up:

• Switching off the automatic cooking:

Stop&Go function

This function brakes all the hob’s cooking activity temporarily and allows restarting with the same settings.

• Start up/stop the pause function:

Recall Function

After switching off the hob (press main On/Off key), it is possible to recall the last settings.

• cooking stages of all cooking zones (Booster)

• minutes and seconds of programmed cooking zone-related timers

• Keep warm function

• Automatic cooking

The recall procedure is following:

• Press [ main On/Off ] key

• Then press [ II ] before the light stops blinking.

The previous settings are again active.

“Keep warm” Function

This function allows the reach and automatically maintains at the temperature of 107.6, 158 or 201.2°F.

This will avoid liquids overflowing and fast burning at the bottom of the pan.

• To engage, to start the function « Keep warm »:

The maximum duration of keeping warm is 2 hours.

Bridge Function

This function allows the use of 2 cooking zones at the same time (left zones) with the same features as a single cooking zone. Booster function isn’t allowed.

Control panel locking

To avoid modification of the setting of the cooking zones , in particular during cleaning, the control panel can be locked (with exception to the main On/Off key).

COOKING ADVICES

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.

Pan dimension

The cooking zones are, until a certain limit, automatically adapted to the diameter of the pan. However the bottom of this pan must have a minimum of diameter according to the corresponding cooking zone.

To obtain the best efficiency of your hob, please place the pan well in the centre of the cooking zone.
