Instructions for the user

Below, we provide a table with the maximum power consumptions of the cooking zones that are on.

5. USE OF THE COOKING HOB

To operate the panel of the hobs equipped with touch-controls, press the icons printed on its surface.

On first connection to the electrical mains, an operating check will be carried out automatically
and all the indicator lights will come on for a few seconds.

Under each cooking zone there is a coil called an inductor which is powered by an electronic system

and which creates a variable magnetic field. When a pan is positioned within this magnetic field, the
high frequency currents are concentrated directly onto the pan producing the heat required for cooking
the food.

After use, switch off the hotplates using the controls described in paragraph “5.3.3 Switching off the

hotplate”. Never rely on the cookware detector.
