The ceramic hob is tted with induction cooking zones.
These zones, shown by painted disks on the ceramic
surface, are controlled by a touch control system.
In the front central area of the hob, the displays of the
touch control system
indicate:
INDUCTION COOKING SYSTEM
When your induction hob is switched On and a cooking zone has been selected, the electronic circuits produce induced currents that instantaneously heat the bottom of the pan
which then transfers this heat to the food. Cooking takes place with hardly any energy loss
between the induction hob and the food.
Your induction hob operates only if a correct pan with the right features is placed on a cooking zone. Please refer to COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION COOKING.
If the pan detection symbol
appears on the display, your pan is not suitable and your
induction hob will not operate. After 10 minutes without detecting any pan, the cooking
zone switches Off automatically.

REMAINING HEAT INDICATORS
When the temperature of a cooking zone is still hot, the relevant remaining heat indicator lights up on the display to alert you of the hot surface.
Avoid touching the hob surface over the cooking area. Please pay special attention to
children.
When the
is lit on the display, it is still possible to start cooking again; just operate the
cooking zone as indicated in the chapter
POWER IGNITION AND ADJUSTMENT OF A
COOKING ZONE
.
COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION COOKING
The induction cooking system OPERATES ONLY if using correct cookware suitable for
induction cooking.
The bottom of the pan has to be ferromagnetic to generate the electromagnetic eld necessary for the heating process (meaning a magnet has to stick to the bottom of the pan).
Pans made from the following materials are not suitable:
• glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, stoneware;
• pure stainless steel, aluminium or copper without magnetic bottom.
To check if a pan is suitable or not:
• test the bottom of the pan with a magnet: if the magnet sticks, the pan is suitable.
• if a magnet is not available pour a small amount of water inside the pan and place the
pan on a cooking zone. Switch on the cooking zone: if the symbol
(pan detection)
appears on the cooking zone display (instead of the power level), the pan is not suitable.
Important note: the cooking zones will not operate if the pan diameter is too small (
pan detection symbol will appear on the cooking zone display). To correctly use the cooking
zones follow the indications given in the following table.
Induction cooking zone
Minimum pan diameter recommended
(referred to the bottom of the pan)
Cooking zone Ø 160 mm 110 mm
Cooking zone Ø 200 mm 145 mm
Cooking zone Ø 250 mm 180 mm
Pay attention: The pan shall always be centred over the middle of the cooking zone. It
is possible to use oversized pans but the bottom of the pan cannot touch other cooking
zones.
Always use pans with thick, completely at bottom.
Do not use pans with concave or convex bottom; these could cause overheating of the
cooking zone.
Note: Some types of pans could cause noise when used on an induction cooking zone.
The noise does not mean any failure on the appliance and does not inuence the cooking
operation.
