ADVICE ON COOKING
Some traditional methods of cooking, such as
double boiler (bain-marie) for creams, sauces,
chocolate, etc. are no longer necessary, because
now you can cook these directly in the pan,
thanks to perfect power regulation and even
temperature distribution of the induction system.
You can use the “Booster” function with water and
soups until they boil, then use a lower level
immediately to avoid too much steam and to save
energy.
When frying heat the oil to the highest power
level, then turn down if needed to a medium level
when adding food to the pan.
Always use pots and pans with a proper lid.
Reduce the selected power in the cooking area in
time, in the case of water do not let it boil
unnecessarily for too long.
Always choose containers of an adequate size for
the amount of food to be cooked. A large pot
which is not completely full consumes a lot of
energy.
For the best cooking results, metal pots and pans
with a flat bottom are recommended. Make sure
the bottom of the pan corresponds with the
cooking area indicated on the glass.
To save energy cook vegetables and potatoes in
a small amount of water. Do not heat empty pans
otherwise they may be damaged and can also
ruin the glass cooking area.
The following table gives you some examples of
cooking methods, these levels may vary
depending on the type of container, weight or
food.
Setting Recommended Use
All the settings described in the following table are
recommended. The values in the table represent
indicative settings, given that the actual values
may depend on:
• Type and quality of the pan.
• Type, quantity and temperature of the food.
• Element used and individual preferences.
Low Temperature Function
Low temperature function allows a lowtemperature cooking, such as melting butter or
chocolate, making sauces or long slow simmers.
This function consists of nine power levels that
provides a range of temperatures for melting or
even boiling. Working in this mode, cooktop
provides a temperature control that can keep the
heater above the glass at any of the temperature
shown in table below.

CONTROL INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
When the cooktop is connected to the electrical
voltage supply all lights and digits turn on to
indicate a proper activation. This operation will be
completed after few seconds, the control turns off
automatically. Now the cooktop is ready for
operations.
Switching the control on
Eventually hold the [LOCK] key in case the
commands are locked (see that the lock led is on
and turns off after a few seconds).
Touch the main [ON/OFF] key in order to make
each single zone available for selection.
All the displays show power level “0”, if no actions
are performed the control shuts down again after
about 10 seconds.
Elements setting
Touch the proper [ON] key (ref.2) in order to
select the desired zone: the HOT SURFACE
(ref.3) indication starts flashing, waiting for a user
input.
The display (ref.4) and the “Peacock Tail” (ref.6)
show the power level, updated in real time.
After a 5 seconds time-out the value is accepted,
the HOT SURFACE led (ref.3) stops flashing and
gets steady. The “Peacock Tail” disappears after
some seconds more.
Touch [ON] key to confirm the value before the
time-out expires.
The following picture represents the Full Power
Scale whereas the control uses all the available
power range, from 0% up to the 100%
corresponding to level 9.
Level 4 corresponds to 15% of the available
power.
Figure 7.
Using the Low Power Scale
Once a cooking zone has been selected, touch
the [LOW TEMP] key (ref.8) in order to enable the
Low Power Scale (ref.9) then set the power level
in the usual way.
Figure 6.
Touch the slide bar to set the power level (levels 0
to 9 are available), moving the finger along it or
directly touching the desired value.
Figure 8.
10
The control uses only the 15% of the available
power, divided in 0 to 9 steps with a better
accuracy.
Keep in mind that power level 9 in this special
mode correspond exactly to level 4 in the
standard range.
Select the zone and touch the [LOW TEMP] key
again in order to disable the Low Power Scale and
restore the standard one, without switching off the
zone.
Pay attention: the level remains the same but
the power increases.
Switching off a cooking zone as described below
disables the Low Power mode. When the zone will
be selected again it will start to work in the
standard power mode.
Switching an element off
Touch the related [OFF] key (ref.1) in order to
stop a heating element.
You may turn off all active elements at the same
time by touching the main [ON/OFF] key.
The heater works using some extra power
available only for some minutes then it gets back
to the selected power level.
This option is available for all the cooking zones,
both standard, both special ones (multiple zones).
Key Lock function
The key lock function is activated or deactivated
holding the [LOCK] key for 2 seconds. The lock
indication turns on, the keyboard is locked. Of
course, the [LOCK] key itself is always enabled.
The keys are automatically locked at start-up.
The locking function can be activated regardless
of the heaters condition (working or not). The key
lock function locks all the keys but the [OFF] ones.
Also the general [ON/OFF] key remains active for
the off function.
Setting the timer
It works as a minute minder and it doe sn’t
stop any heating element.
The timer is available in some models only. It can
be set independently from the heating element,
even if there aren’t any working zones. If the
cooktop is not working, touch first the main
[ON/OFF] key to enter stand-by mode, with all
displays showing “0”.
Hot surface indicator light
Each element has a HOT SURFACE indicator
light (ref.3) to show when the cooking area is hot.
This indication turns on when the zone is
activated and remains ON until the cooking area
has cooled down to a “safe to touch” temperature
(approximately 150°F).
If a hot surface light is ON use caution when
working around the cooktop as it is still hot.
Fast Boil (Booster) function
Once a heating element has been selected, touch
the [FAST BOIL] key to enable/disable this
function, before or after setting the power level.
A beep sounds and the heater display shows the
selected power level and a “P” alternatively. The
“Peacock Tail” shows the selected power level.
Figure 9.
Touch [T-] or [T+] keys to set the timer: the initial
value starts from “00” or “45” respectively on the
timer display (ref.1). Hold the key in order to
fasten the increase/ decrease speed. The
maximum value is “99”.
The timer led (ref.2) indicates whether the timer is
running.
The dot in the lower right corner of the display
(ref.3) is flashing when the timer has been
selected in order to change its value. After 5
seconds since the last touch the new value is
accepted and the dot disappears.
