Environmental protection

EnvironmentallyDfrie ndly disposal

Unpack	the appliance and dispose of the packagin
in an	environmentallyMresponsible manner.

)This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment M WEEE.

Tips for saving energy

The	directive provides a framework for the collectio
and	recycling of old appliances, which is valid acro
the	EU.

H Always use the right lid for the pan in question Cooking without the lid requires four times as much energy.

H Use pots and pans with even bases. Using cookware with uneven bases increases energy consumption.

H The diameter of the base of your					pot	or pan s
match the size of the hotplate. In					particular, if
that are too small are placed on the hotplate,
energy	is wasted.
Please note: Cookware manufacturers often
specify the diameter of the top of the pan. Thi
usually	bigger	than the diameter of			the	base of
the pan.
H Use a	small	pan	for small	quantities of		food.
A larger,	less	full	saucepan	requires	more energy.

H Use only a little water when cooking. This save energy. It also preserves vitamins and minerals i vegetables.

Induction cooking

Advantages of induction cooking

Suitable pans

Induction cooking involves a radical change to the traditional method of heating, as the heat is genera directly in the pan. For this reason, it offers a nu of advantages:

H	Greater	speed	in	cooking	and frying;as the pan
	is heated directly.
H	Reduced	energy		consumption
H	Cleaner	and easier to uspilte; food does not
	burn as	much	on	the hob.
H	Cooking	control and safety;the hob supplies or
	cuts off the heat as soon as the controls are
	operated. The induction hotplate stops supplying
	heat if the pan is			removed	before the power h
	been switched		off.

Ferromagnetic pans	Ferromagnetic				pans are the only pans which ar
	suitable		for	induction		cooking. They can be made
	of:
	H	enamelled		steel
	H	cast	iron
	H specially designed cookware for induction cooking
		made	from		stainless	steel.
Special pans for induction Other types of					special	pans are available for induct
cooking	cooking,		where		the base of the pan is not entirely
	ferromagnetic. Check the diameter as this could
	affect the pan				detection as well as the cooking re

Checking pans using a magnet

To find out whether the pans are suitable, check they are attracted to a magnet.

The manufacturer will usually indicate if their pans suitable for induction cooking.

Place a suitable pan on the hotplate to stop the

Empty pans or pans with Doa

not

heat

empty pans and do not use pans w

thin

bases.

Although

your

hob is equipped with an inte

safety system, empty cookware can heat up so

quickly that the "automatic OFF" function does not

have time

to

react

and

a very high temperature m

be reached. The base of the pan could melt and

damage

the

hob's

glass surface. If this happens, d

not

touch

the pan

and switch off the hotplate. If

does not work after cooling, contact our After-Sale

Service.

Pan

detection

Each

hotplate has

a minimum limit for pan detectio

which

varies

according to the material from which

pan being

used

is

made. It is for this reason that

are

recommended

to

use a hotplate which matches

the diameter of the pan.

Double

or

triple

hotplate

These

areas

can detect pans of different sizes. Th

area will automatically adapt, depending on the pan

material

and

its properties, activating only a single

area or

an

entire

area and supplying the right leve

power

for

best cooking

results.
