*The different heat settings result from different cycle times.
If the maximum power is reached, no other hotplates can be
switched on and the power of the active hotplates cannot be
increased any further. For further details, see section Limiting the total power.
*I livelli di cottura si sviluppano da differenti tempi in cui le zone
di cottura sono attivate.
Qualora venga raggiunta la potenza massima, non è possibile
accendere nessun'altra zona di cottura oppure la potenza delle
zone di cottura attive deve essere aumentata. Per ulteriori
dettagli consultare il capitolo Limitazione della potenza totale.

■ Hard or pointed objects dropped on the hob may damage it.
■ Aluminium foil and plastic containers will melt if placed on the
hotplate while it is hot. The use of laminated sheeting is not
recommended on the hob.

Protecting the environment
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used
electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical
and electronic equipment - WEEE). The guideline
determines the framework for the return and recycling
of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.
Energy-saving advice
■ Always use the correct lid for each pan. Cooking without a lid
uses a lot more energy. Use a glass lid to provide visibility
and avoid having to lift the lid.
■ Use pans with flat bases. Bases that are not flat use a lot
more energy.
■ The diameter of the pan base must match the size of the
hotplate. Please note: pan manufacturers usually provide the
diameter for the top of the pan, which is usually larger than
the diameter of the pan base.
■ Use a small pan for small amounts of food. A large pan which
is not full uses a lot of energy.
■ Use little water when cooking. This saves energy and
preserves all the vitamins and minerals in vegetables.
■ Select the lowest power level to maintain cooking. If the
power level is too high, energy is wasted.

Induction cooking
Advantages of induction cooking
Induction cooking represents a radical change from the
traditional method of heating; the heat is generated directly in
the pan. It therefore offers a number of advantages:
■ Time savings for cooking and frying; since the pan is heated
directly.
■ Energy is saved.
■ Care and cleaning are simpler. Foods that have spilt do not
burn as quickly.
■ Heat and safety control; the hob supplies or cuts off power as
soon as the control knob is turned on. The induction hotplate
stops supplying heat if the pan is removed without having
previously switched it off.
Cookware
Only ferromagnetic pans are suitable for induction cooking;
these may be made from:
■ enamelled steel
■ cast iron
■ special stainless steel induction pans.
To determine whether a pan is suitable, check to see if a
magnet will stick to its base.
There are other types of cookware for induction whose base is
not entirely ferromagnetic.
When using large cookware on a
smaller ferromagnetic area, only
the ferromagnetic zone heats up,
so heat might not be uniformly
distributed.
Pans with aluminium areas
inserted in the base reduce the
ferromagnetic area, so less heat
may be supplied and the pan
may be difficult to detect or not
be detected at all.
For good cooking results, the
diameter of the cookware's ferromagnetic area should match the
size of the hotplate. If cookware
is not detected on a hotplate, try
it on the next smaller hotplate
down.
Characteristics of the pan base
The characteristics of the pan base may affect the uniformity of
the cooking results. Pans made from materials which help
diffuse heat, such as stainless steel sandwich pans, distribute
heat uniformly, saving time and energy.
No cookware on the hotplate or cookware is an unsuitable
size
If the cookware is not compatible with induction hobs or is not
the right size for the hotplate,
μ is shown in the hotplate display
panel. Place suitable cookware on the hotplate. Otherwise, the
hotplate switches off automatically after 20 seconds.
Empty pans or those with a thin base
Do not heat empty pans, nor use pans with a thin base. The
hob is equipped with an internal safety system. However, an
empty pan may heat up so quickly that the "automatic switch
off" function may not have time to react and the pan may reach
very high temperatures. The base of the pan could melt and
damage the glass on the hob. In this case, do not touch the
pan and switch the hotplate off. If it fails to work after it has
cooled down, please contact the Technical Assistance Service.
Pan detection
Each hotplate has a lower limit for pan detection:
Hotplate diameterMinimum cookware diameter
21 cm12 cm
15 cm10 cm
Unsuitable pans
Never use diffuser hobs or pans made from:
■ common thin steel
■ glass
■ earthenware
■ copper
■ aluminium

Error message
Residual heat indicator
The hob has a residual heat indicator for each hotplate, which
indicates any hotplates which are hot or warm. Do not touch the
cooking surface while the residual heat indicator is displayed.
If the hob is switched off, the • indicator will stay lit for as long
as the hotplate is still warm.
Limiting the total power
This hob is equipped with a power limit. If the maximum power
is reached, no other hotplates can be switched on and the
power of the active hotplates cannot be increased any further.
In this case, an audible signal sounds and the display panel of
the hotplate concerned flashes.
The total power of the hob when delivered is limited to 3000 W
and can be increased to 4500 W.
The hob is divided into two groups. The two left- and right-hand
hotplates constitute one group each. The maximum power per
group is 3700 W.
Note: Please contact your electricity provider to establish
whether your appliance can be operated at 4500 W.
The total power of the appliance has a direct impact on the
operating characteristics:
Total power 3000 W:
You can use the following hotplates at the same time:
■ A large hotplate with the boost function and no other
hotplates.
■ Or a large hotplate on level 8 and two small hotplates on
level 1-7.
■ Or two small hotplates on level 9.
Total power 4500 W:
You can use the following hotplates at the same time:
■ A large hotplate with the boost function and one small
hotplate not in the same group on level 9.
■ Or a large hotplate with the boost function and one small
hotplate in the same group on level 7.
■ Or a large hotplate on level 9, a large hotplate on level 1-7
and a small hotplate on level 9.
■ Or two large hotplates on level 8 and two small hotplates on
level 1-7.
■ Or two large hotplates on level 1-7, a small hotplate on level
9 and a small hotplate on level 1-7.
Note: These examples are just a selection of possible
combinations.
