Operating principle

This is based on the electromagnetic properties of most
cooking containers.
The electronic circuit governs the operation of the coil
(inductor), creating a magnetic field.
The heat is transmitted by the container to the food.
Te cooking process takes place as follows:

- minimum dispersion (high performance);

- the removal of the pan (simply lifting it) automatically
stops the system;

- the electronic system allows maximum flexibility and
precision of regulation.

Installation

All installation operations (electrical connection) must be
carried out by people qualified in compliance with the laws
in force.
For specific ins

Important

Switching on a cooking zone

When in the Standby or On mode, a cooking zone can be
switched on by means of the Plus/Minus button, as long as
the cooking zone is not in the timer programming mode at
that moment (see Timer chapter).
If starting with the “+” button, the cooking level changes
from “0” to “4”. If starting with the “-“ button, the cooking
level changes from “0” to “9”.

Switching off a cooking zone

a) Pressing the “+” and “-” buttons of the desired cooking

zone at the same time.

b) Selecting cooking level “0” of the desired cooking zone

with the “-” button.
If the last cooking zone is switched off, the control switches
to the OFF mode after 10 sec. if nothing else is switched on.
All cooking zones are switched off immediately by pressing
the ON/OFF button.

Use

First of all, position the pan in the chosen cooking area.
The absence of the pan display means the system
cannot start.

On/off of the Touch Control (Fig. 3-5)

The electronic Touch Control is activated by means of

I

the ON/OFF button and switches from the OFF mode
to the Standby mode.
To do so it is necessary to press the ON/OFF button for 1
second. A short Beep will be heard.
When in standby, “0” is displayed on the display of the
cooking zone.
This display may go into background due to a residual heat
or error signal.
If a cooking zone is activated during the standby time (10
sec.), the control switches over to the On mode.
If no introduction is made within the 10 sec., the control
automatically switches to OFF with a short beep.

Cooking and power levels

The cooking and power levels of the cooking zones
are shown on the display with 7 allotted segments. In

ccordance with standards, the power levels are displayed

a
with numbers from “1” to “9”.

Residual heat indicator

Indicates to the user that the glass is at a dangerous
temperature if in contact with the area over the cooking
zone. The temperature is determined by means of a
mathematical model and possible residual heat is indicated
by “H” on the corresponding 7 segment display.
Heating and cooling are calculated based on:

- The selected power level (from “0” to “9”);

- The relay activation time after the cooking zone has
been switched off.

The corresponding display shows “H” until the zone
temperature drops below the critical level (< 60 °C)
according to the mathematical model.

Timer function

The Timer function can be used as a
cooking zone timer or independent alarm

but never for both functions. The two 7
segment displays of the respective cooking zones are used
to view the remaining time in minutes up until the timer
alarm is activated.

Timer selection

- To program a timer, the touch control must be in the
Standby or On mode.

- The timer button is pressed in order to select a timer
function for the cooking zone.

- The programming of a timer using the Plus/Minus keys

is signalled by led 8 for induction model 2 and led 6 for

the wok induction model. The flashing timer LED signals
that the 7 segment display value refers to the timer and
can be modified. When a timer continues to function in
the OFF mode, the timer LED remains on.

This indicates that the value on the display is related to

the timer, but cannot be directly modified at that particular
moment; to do so, the control must be reactivated.

- The activation of the timer button depends on the

conditions of the previously set function: a) The cooking

zone corresponding to the timer is on (cooking level >

0)

: The timer is programmed in reference to the cooking

zone; the cooking zone automatically switches off when

reset; an independent timer cannot be selected. The
cooking level setting is accessed when the timer button
is pressed again.

b) The cooking zone corresponding to the timer is

off (cooking level = 0): The timer is independently
programmed and continues to function even in OFF.
The cooking zone cannot be activated until the timer is
functioning.

Setting of the Timer value

(selection: press button, release, press button, release,
etc).

- If the button is permanently pressed, the regulation
speed automatically accelerates, meaning that the time
between one step and the next is reduced, until the
button is released.

- If the Plus or Minus buttons are not pressed within 10
sec. (parameter), after having selected the timer of the
current cooking zone (the display remains on “00”), the
indication and allocation of the +/- buttons automatically
switch to the cooking zone.

- When a tim
allocation of the buttons does not switch to the cooking
zone, being that this cannot be activated.

- The timer normally starts in countdown, if programmed
with two values that are not 0. For example: the timer
starts when the Plus button is released after the timer
value has been set at “01”.

- The timer settings have priority over the delimitation of
the operating time if high cooking levels have been set.

- If only one alarm has been programmed, the control
remains at first in the standby mode (no other cooking
zone is on). If no other
TC behaves as described above and switches to the
OFF mode.

- The last 10 sec. before the timer lapses are displayed
(countdown up to alarm).

- Once the set time of the timer has lapsed, the timer alarm
is activated and the assigned cooking zone is switched
off.

- The display and the selected timer LED flash alternating
the cooking level from “00” to “H”, if there is residual heat.

- The warning alarm lasts for at least 2 minutes if the user
does not switch it off before.

- The a

if any button is pushed.

The buzzer and the timer control light are switched off.

- Following the selection of the time, the related LED
flashes as described above. Th
desired timer can be set by means of the +/- buttons.

- Starting with the plus button, the first value displayed is
“01” and progressively increases from 1 to a maximum

value of “99” (upper limit).

- Starting with the minus button, the value displayed on

the indication is “30” and diminishes to “01” (first lower
limit). When this value is reached, an acoustic signal is
emitted. By pressing the minus button again, the display
“00” will not be modified (second lower limit).

Key Lock (child safety)

Mod. DCTI

Locking/ unlocking of the Key Lock

The keypad is blocked when the Key Lock button is
pressed in the Standby or On mode; the Key-Lock
LED “9” lights permanently.

The control continues to operate in the previously set
mode but can no longer be controlled by other buttons,
except by the Key-Lock button or the ON/OFF button.
Switching off with the ON/OFF button is also possible
when locked. The Key-lock button LED switches off
when the Touch control and Key-Lock function are
switched off. The LED lights again if reactivated (within
10 sec.) until it is deactivated by pressing the Key-Lock
button once again. The activation/ deactivation of the
Key-Lock function is not possible in the OFF mode.

Unlocking/ deactivation of the Key Lock

The keypad is unlocked and the Key-Lock LED is
switched off when the Key-Lock button is pressed again
in the Standby or On mode. All sensor buttons can once
again be activated.

Key-Lock (child safety)

Mod. DCTIW

Activation and deactivation

The activation of the key-lock in the pause or active

mode causes the deactivation of the power to both

burners.

The symbol “11” appears on the display. It can only

be totally turned off with the ON/OFF bu on or the
release by activating the key-lock symbol and then the
“+” o “-” symbol a er the beep.

To block the regulation of a

activate the TIMER symbol and the “-” symbol
related to the burner at the same time. The key-lock “9”
LED will light. The control will continue to operate in the
previously set mode and cannot be controlled by other
bu ons, except for switching off with the key-lock bu on.
The release is performed by activating again the TIMER
symbol and the “-” symbol together.

Booster and management of power for the wok
induction model DCTIW

The wok induction model has a Booster function. The
generator, with Booster On, gives the cooking zone
power that is significantly greater than the rated output.
The booster allows a particularly rapid heating of the
food thereby saving the user time.
The Booster function can be activated as follows:

- The cooking zone must be at the maximum possible
level;

- The Booster function is activated by pressing the “+”

burner in safety,

button again. A fixed “P” is displayed on the indication

of the cooking zone.
The power is increased from 2400 to 3000 W.
For safety reasons the Booster function can only be
activated for a limited duration of 10 minutes.
If the pan is removed from the cooking zone during the
Booster time, the Booster function remains on and also
the Booster time is not deactivated.
The Booster is switched off by pressing the “-“ button.
The “+” has no effect whatsoever.

Keep- warm function (Lo Temp)

The keep-warm function serves to keep the
food on a cooking zone warm. To do so,

the selected cooking zone is supplied with
a lower power.
The temperature maintenance
setting the cooking level between 0 and 1. On both
settings, the indications of the cooking areas on the IN
2 model are displayed with the “Lo” symbol (see above).
This is the same for the wok induction model.
Lowering the cooking temperature with the “-“ button
pressed, the temperature stops on the keep-warm
cooking level. Push the button again to switch to “0”.

Precautions

- If there is even the tiniest crack in the ceramic glass
surface, immediately disconnect the hob from the
electricity supply.

- During operation, move any magnetic materials such
as credit cards, computer disks, calculators, etc.,
away from the area.

- Never use cooking foil or rest products wrapped in foil
directly on the hob.

- Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and
lids must not be rested on the surface of the hob to
prevent them from heating up.

- When cooking with non-stick containers, without
using water or oil, limit any preheating time to one or
two minutes.

- When cooking foods which tend to stick to the bottom
of the pan, start at minimum power and gradually
increase the heat, stirring frequently.

- After use, switch off correctly (decreasing to “0”) and
avoid relying on the pan sensor.

Installation instructions

Installation

these instructions are aimed at qualified fitters as a guide
to installation, adjustment and maintenance in compliance
with the laws and standards in force. The operations must
always be carried out with the appliance disconnected from
the electricity supply.

Positioning (Fig. 8-9-10-11)

The appliance is made to be fitted into a counter top, as
show in the figure. Apply the sealant supplied around the
whole perimeter of the hob. Installation over an oven is not
recommended, but if this is necessary, check that:

- the oven has an efficient cooling system;

- there is no passage of hot air from the oven to the hob;

- allow air passages as shown in the figure.

Electrical connection (Fig. 12-13)

Before connecting to the electricity supply, ensure that:

- the characteristics of the system are such as to satisfy
that indicated on the registration plate applied to the
bottom of the hob;

- the system has an effective earth connection compliant
with the standards and laws in force. Connection to earth
is compulsory by law.

If the appliance has no cable and/or plug, use material
suitable for the absorption indicated on the registration plate
and for the working temperature. The cable must not reach
a temperature higher than 50°C above room temperature
in any point.
For direct connection to the network it is necessary to fit an
omnipolar switch of a suitable size to ensure disconnection
of he network with a contact opening distance that allows
complete disconnection in the conditions of the overtension
category III, compliant with the installation regulations (the
yellow/green earth wire must not be interrupted).
The omnipolar socket or switch must be easy to reach when
the appliance is installed.
N.B.:

- The manufacturer declines all respon
usual accident prevention standards and the above
instructions are not observed.

If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or by the manufacturer’s technical servicing
network, or by a similarly qualified operator, to prevent
every possible risk.
