INDUCTION
The following information will help you select the pans best adapted to obtain good results.
Control unit |
USE PROCEDURE
An electronic generator powers a coil located inside the appliance.
This coil creates a magnetic field, so that when the pan is placed on the hob, it is permeated by the induction currents.
These currents make the pan into a real heat transmitter, while the glass ceramic hob remains cold.
This system is designed for use with magnetic-bottomed pans.
Put simply, induction technology has two main advantages :
-as heat is emitted only by the pan, heat is maintained at its maximum level and cooking takes place without any heat loss.
-There is no thermal inertia, as cooking automatically starts when the pan is placed on the hob and stops when it is removed.
A HIGH SAFETY APPLIANCE ....
If your hob is correctly installed and used, the safety devices will rarely be needed.
•Ventilation fan : to protect and cool the supply and control components. It has two speeds, operating automatically. The fan works even if the plates are off and this till the electronic system has enough cooled down.
•Safety "Transistor" : a probe checks permanently the temperature of the electronic components. If the heat is increasing excessively, it automatically decreases the power of the plates then cuts them down (the display for power level is flashing) as far as the temperature of the components meets with the standard again, the hob starts working.
•Safety "Empty pan" : a probe is placed under each heating area. It will immediately detect a wrong temperature for the empty pan, or the glass ceramic.
•Safety "Detection" : the presence detector allows the working and so the heating. A small object (eg a spoon, knife or ring) placed on the heating area will not be considered as a pan and therefore the hob will not come on.
•Safety "Boiling over and splashing" : if any boiling over and splashing occur, the hob will stop. If a big spill or object covers at least two buttons, for at least 10 seconds, clean up the spill or remove the object, the hob is not operating.
HOB COOKWARE ADVICE
Using good quality cookware is critical for setting the best performance from your hob.
•Always use good quality cookware with perfectly flat and thick bases : using this type of cookware will prevent hot spots that cause food to stick. Thick metal pots and pans will provide an even distribution of heat.
•Ensure that the base of the pot or pan is dry : when filling pans with liquid or using one that has been stored in the refrigerator, ensure that the base of the pan is completely dry before placing it on the hob. This will help to avoid staining the hob.
•Use pans whose diameter is wide enough to completely cover the surface unit : the size of the pan should be no smaller than the heating area. If it is slightly wider the energy will be used at its maximum efficiency.

THE DIFFERENT POSITION
The different positions correspond to the following power ratings :
For increased safety, the cooking zones cut off automatically if they are left on too long.
The cut off depends on the heat level used.
NOTE:
The induction hob works with a generator wich supplies simultaneously 2 zones per area, according to model :
Each area take in charge a maximum power of 3700 W. Consequently, in the same area, when the Booster function is on and the second plate has reached a power level of 9 or 8 the latest is automatically decreased to the level 7 and this decrease is shown by a flashing display for information.
Warning : the Booster works during 10 minutes, after this time, it stops and the plate starts heating again at the setting 9, the power of the generator being decreased, the power level of the second plate comes back to its previous setting.
THE USE
• After powering up the hob, wait 8 seconds to activate the electronic controls.

• PAN DETECTOR
When the hob is operating, the pan detector provides the advantage of automatically stopping or starting the heat of the cooking zone in contact with or on removal of the pan.
If therefore offers energy savings.
If the cooking zone is used with a suitable pan* : the display shows the heat level or 
when the booster is operating.
* The induction needs pans compatibles so fitted with magneticbottomed, see table page 3 and pans big enough to fully cover the zone.
If the cooking zone is used without a pan or with an unsuitable pan : the display shows 
. The zone does not start. If no pan is detected after 10 minutes, the starting operation is cancelled.
IMPORTANT:
To stop the cooking zone, you must stop the hob normally, you cannot just remove the pan. The pan detector does not work as the hob on/off button.
• STOPPING A COOKING ZONE
-Press the selection button of the required cooking zone.
- Press the button to display heat level 
. Now the zone goes off, the indicator goes off after 10 seconds.
- To stop rapidly, press the |
|
and |
buttons at the same time. |
|
The heat level automatically goes down to 
.
The cooking zone goes off.
• GENERAL STOP
The cooking zones and the timer can be stopped at any moment by pressing for 3 seconds on the On-Off button.
• RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR
The control panel tells the user when the surface temperature of the cooking zones exceeds about 60°C, by the following displaying: “H” . When the temperature goes back below 60°C, the “H” display goes off.
For ending the cooking, we advise switching off the cooking zone and using the residual heat of the zone to finish cooking gently.
N.B. After a cut in the current, the residual heat indicator disappears completely, even if the surface temperature exceeds 60°C.
