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.
