Advantages of induction cooking • Energy saving thanks to the direct
transmission of energy to the pan
The hob is equipped with an induction generator for each cooking zone. Each generator located under the glass ceramic cooking surface creates an electromagnetic field which induces a thermal current in the base of the saucepan. This means the heat is no longer transmitted from the hob to the pan but created directly inside the pan by the inductive current.
(suitable magnetisable cookware is required) compared to traditional electric cooking.
• Improved safety as the energy is only transmitted to the pan placed on the hob.
• High level of energy transmitted from the induction cooking zone to the base of the pan.
• Rapid heating.
• Reduced danger of burns as the cooking surface is only heated under the base of the pan; foods which overflow do not stick.

Use
3.2 Preliminary operations
In order to remove any moisture that could have accumulated during the manufacturing process and for the electronic circuits and control keypad to work properly:
1. Remove the protective films from the external surfaces of the appliance and accessories.
2. Remove any labels (apart from the technical data plate).
3. Place a pan full of water on each of the front cooking zones and switch them on to the maximum power setting for at least 30 minutes.
4. After 30 minutes, switch off the front cooking zones and repeat this operation for the rear cooking zones and any central cooking zone.
5. If after carrying out the above operations the controls do not work properly, it might be necessary to extend the operations until the moisture has completely evaporated.
3.3 Using the hob
On first connection to the electrical mains, an automatic check will be carried out that will switch on all indicator lights for a few seconds.
All the appliance's control and monitoring devices are located together on the front panel. The relevant cooking zone is indicated next to each knob.
Just turn the knob clockwise to the required power setting.
Cookware suitable for use in induction cooking
Cookware used on the induction cooking surface must be made of metal, with magnetic properties and a sufficiently large base.
Suitable cookware:
• Enamelled steel cookware with thick bases.
• Cast iron cookware with an enamelled base.
• Cookware in multilayer stainless steel, ferritic stainless steel and aluminium with a special base.
EN
31
Use
Unsuitable cookware:
• Copper, stainless steel, aluminium, fireproof glass, wood, ceramic and terracotta cookware.
To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If you do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the pan, place it on a cooking zone and start the hot plate. If
the symbol appears on the display, it means the pan is not suitable.
Use only cookware with a perfectly flat bottom and suitable for induction hot plates. Using cookware with an irregular bottom could jeopardise the efficiency of the heating system so that cookware is not detected on the hot plate.
Limiting the cooking duration
The hob has an automatic device which limits the duration of use.
If the cooking zone settings are not changed, the maximum duration of operation of each zone depends on the power level selected.
When the device for limiting the duration of use is activated, the cooking zone turns off, a short alert sounds and, if the zone is hot,
the symbol appears on the display.

Use
Advice on energy-saving
• The diameter of the base of the pan must correspond to the diameter of the cooking zone.
• When buying a pan, check whether the diameter indicated is that of the base or the top of the pan, as the top is almost always larger than the base.
• When preparing dishes with long cooking times, you can save time and energy by using a pressure cooker, which also makes it possible to preserve the vitamins in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker contains enough liquid as, if there is not enough and it overheats, this may cause damage to both the pressure cooker and the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover saucepans with a suitable lid.
• Choose a saucepan suitable for the quantity of food to be cooked. A large, half-empty saucepan leads to a waste of energy.
Power levels
The power in the cooking zone can be adjusted to various levels. The table shows the levels suitable for various types of cooking.

Residual heat
Improper use
Danger of burns
• Supervise children carefully as they cannot readily see the residual heat indicator. The cooking zones remain hot for a certain period of time even after they have been turned off. Make sure that children never touch the hob.
EN
If the hob and the oven are being used at the same time, under certain circumstances, the maximum power limit that can be used by the electrical system might be exceeded.
If the cooking zone is still hot after being switched off, the symbol will be displayed on the display. The symbol clears
once the temperature drops below 60°C.
33
Use
Heating accelerator
Each cooking zone is equipped with a heating accelerator that allows the maximum power to be delivered for a time that is proportional to the selected power.
1. Turn the knob anti-clockwise to the position and release it. The display shows the symbol .
2. Select the required heating power (1...8) within 3 seconds. The selected power
and symbol will flash alternately on the display.
The power level can be increased at any moment. The “maximum power” period will automatically be modified.
Turn the knob to power setting 9 and then return the knob to the required heating power setting (1...8) to disable the heating accelerator.
If the heating accelerator has been set to 9, turn the knob anti­clockwise.
Booster function
The booster function allows you to activate the cooking zone at maximum power as long as 5 minutes. It can be used to bring a large quantity of water to a boil rapidly or to broil meat.
• Turn the knob clockwise to the position for two seconds and then
release. The display shows the symbol
. After 5 minutes the booster function
will automatically be disabled and cooking will continue at power level 9 (on zones 2 only).
The booster function has priority over the heating accelerator function.
34
Use
Power management
The hob is fitted with a power management module that optimises/limits consumption. If the overall set power levels surpass the maximum limits permitted, the electronic circuit board manages automatically the power supplied by the hot plates.
The module tries to maintain the maximum deliverable power levels. The levels set by the automatic management will appear on the display.
The flashing of a power level indicates that it will automatically be limited to a new level selected by the power management module.
Control lock
The control lock is a device that protects the appliance from accidental or inappropriate use.
EN
1. While all the cooking zones are off, simultaneously turn the two cooking zone control knobs anti-clockwise to the left
(position ).
2. Keep them turned until the symbols appear on the display.
3. Release the knobs.
In order to remove the control lock repeat the same operations described previously.
Any knob turned to for more than 30 seconds displays an error message
Priority is given to the last zone set.
The power management module does not affect the total power consumption of the appliance.

Cleaning and maintenance
4 Cleaning and maintenance
4.1 Instructions
Improper use
Risk of damage to surfaces
• Do not use steam jets for cleaning the appliance.
• Do not spill sugar or sweet mixtures on the hob during cooking.
• Do not place materials or substances that could melt (plastic or aluminium foil).
• Keep always clean and do not place any object on the sensor keys.
• Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach on steel parts or parts with metallic finishes on the surface (e.g. anodizing, nickel- or chromium-plating).
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents on glass parts (e.g. powder products, stain removers and metallic sponges). Use wooden or plastic utensils.
4.2 Cleaning the surfaces
To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.
4.3 Ordinary weekly cleaning
Clean and maintain the hob once a week using an ordinary glass cleaning product. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions. The silicon in these products creates a protective, water-repellent membrane which also resists dirt. All marks stay on the membrane and can therefore be easily removed. After cleaning, dry the surface with a clean cloth. Make sure that no detergent residue remains on the cooking surface as it will undergo an aggressive reaction when heated up and could modify the structure of the cooking surface.
4.4 Food stains or residues
Smudges from aluminium-based pans can be easily cleaned off with a cloth dampened in vinegar.
After cooking remove any burnt residues; rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
Dirt which may have fallen on the hob while cleaning lettuce or potatoes can scratch the hob when moving pans.
Consequently, remove any dirt from the cooking surface immediately.
36
Cleaning and maintenance
Changes in colour do not affect the
operation and stability of the glass. These are not alterations to the material of the hob but just residues which have not been removed and have then carbonised.
Shiny surfaces can form due to the bases of pans, especially aluminium ones, rubbing on the surface, and due to the use of unsuitable detergents. They are difficult to remove using conventional cleaning products. It may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process several times. Use of aggressive detergents or rubbing of pan bases can wear away the decoration on the hob over time and contribute to the formation of stains.
4.5 What to do if...
The hob does not work:
• Make sure that the hob is connected and that the main switch is turned on.
• Make sure that there is no power failure.
• Make sure that the fuse has not tripped. In this case replace the fuse.
• Make sure that the magneto thermal switch of the residential electrical system has not tripped. In this case, re-activate the switch.
The cooking results are unsatisfactory:
• Make sure that the cooking temperature is not too high or too low.
The hob smokes:
• Let the hob cool down and clean it once cooking is finished.
• Make sure that the food has not come out and use a larger cooking vessel, if needed.
The fuses or the magneto thermal switch of the residential electrical system are repeatedly triggered.
• Call Technical Support or an electrician.
There are cracks or fissures in the hob:
• Turn off the appliance immediately, disconnect the power supply and contact Technical Support.
