Caution!
– Rough pan bases may scratch the hob.
– Avoid leaving empty pots and pans on the
hotplate. Doing so may cause damage.
– Do not place hot pans on the control panel, the
indicator area, or the hob frame. Doing so may
cause damage.

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.
Overview
The following table presents the most common
damage caused:
6
Protecting the environment
Induction cooking
Unpack the appliance and dispose of its packaging in
such a way that no damage is caused to the
environment.
Environmentally-friendly disposal of waste products
This device is identified in accordance with
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Directive WEEE 2002/96/EC. This directive
defines the standard for recycling and reusing
used devices throughout the European
territory.
Energy-saving advice
▯ Always place the correct lid on cookware.
Cooking with an uncovered pan will result in a
four-fold increase in energy use. Use a glass lid to
provide visibility and avoid having to lift the lid.
▯ Use cookware equipped with a solid, flat bottom.
Curved pan bases increase energy consumption.
▯ The diameter of the pan base must match the size
of the hotplate. If not, energy may be
wasted. Note: The manufacturer normally
indicates the pan's upper diameter. This is
normally greater than the diameter of the pan's
base.
▯ Choose cookware of a size suited to the amount
of food you are going to cook. A large pan that is
only half full will use a lot of energy.
▯ Use a small amount of water when cooking. This
saves energy, and vegetables retain their vitamins
and minerals.
▯ Select a lower power level.
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 immediately when the control knob is
turned on. The induction hotplate stops supplying
heat if the pan is removed without having
previously switched it off.
Suitable pans
Ferromagnetic pans
Only ferromagnetic pans are suitable for induction
cooking, these may be made from:
▯ enamelled steel
▯ cast iron
▯ special cutlery for stainless steel induction pan
To determine whether a pan is suitable, check to see if
a magnet will stick to it.
7
Other suitable cookware for induction
There are other types of cookware especially made for
induction whose base is not entirely ferromagnetic.
When using large cookware
on a smaller ferromagnetic
zone, only the ferromagnetic
zone heats up, so heat might
not be uniformly distributed.
Cookware with aluminium on
the base reduce the ferromagnetic zone, so less heat
may be supplied or be difficult to detect.
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.
Unsuitable pans
Never use pans made from:
▯ common thin steel
▯ glass
▯ earthenware
▯ copper
▯ aluminium
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.
Absence of pan or unsuitable size
If no pan is placed on the selected hotplate, or if it is
made of unsuitable material or is not the correct size,
the power level displayed on the hotplate indicator will
flash. Place a suitable pan on the hotplate to stop the
flashing. If this takes more than 90 seconds, the
hotplate will switch off automatically.
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 minimum limit for detecting pans,
which varies depending on the material of the pan
being used. You should therefore use the hotplate that
is most suitable for the diameter of your pan.
