The manoeuvres are done by means of
the touch keys. You do not need to exert
force on the desired touch key, you only
need to touch it with your fingertip to
activate the required function.
Each action is verified by a beep.
If one or several touch keys remain
pressed for more than ten seconds,
the hob will automatically switch off for
safety reasons and the beep alarm will
go off as a warning of the possible
danger situation.
SWITCHING ON THE DEVICE
DO NOT USE L3

If you do not take any action in the next
10 seconds the touch control will
switch off automatically.
When the touch control is activated,
ou can disconnect it at any time by
y
touching the touch button (1), even
f it has been locked (lock function acti-
i
vated). The touch button (1)
always has priority to disconnect the
touch control.
ACTIVATING HOT PLATES
Once the touch control has been activated with touch key (1), the desired hotplates can be switched on.
1 Select the desired hotplate by pre-
ssing the related touch key (4).
An
0 will appear in the related power
indicator and the decimal point will
stay on indicating that the hotplate is
selected.
2 With the touch key or
(12/11) select the desired power
level (from 1 to 9).
The and touch keys are repetitive, so if you keep them pressed they
increase or decrease in a continuous
manner.
Only one hotplate can be selected at a
time, in other words only one decimal
point will be lit up (9) (except when
more than one hotplate is being
timed).
Quick switch-on at maximum power:
Select the hotplate and press touch key
(11) once. The hotplate will be acti-
vated at its maximum power (level 9).
SWITCHING OFF THE HOTPLATE
1 The hotplate must previously be
selected. Its decimal point (9) must
be lit up.
2 Using the touch key (11), lower
the power to level 0. The hotplate
will switch off.
Quick switch-off: Whatever the power
level setting is, by simultaneously pressing touch keys and (12/11), the
hotplate will switch to level 0.
When a hot plate is switched off an
ill appear in its power indicator, if the
w
glass surface of the related cooking
area is hot and there is a risk of burns.
When the temperature drops, the indicator switches off (if the hob is discon-
ected), or otherwise a “-” will light up
n
if the hob is still connected.
SWITCHING OFF THE DEVICE
The device can be switched off at any
time by pressing the general on/off
ouch key (1). In standby mode an
t
H will appear in the areas that are hot.
The indicators for the rest of the hotplates will not light up.
The switching off of the device or of
each individual hotplate will be accompanied by a longer beep than the rest.
After use, disconnect the
device by using its control and do
not rely on the pot/pan detector.
Locking of the touch keys
of the induction hob
By using touch key lock (8) you
may lock all the touch keys of the
touch control panel. This prevents
functions from being activated accidentally and children from playing with
the controls.
Bear in mind that when the touch control is on, you can still switch it on/off
using touch key (1) even if the lock
function is activated (pilot light 10 is
on). On the other hand, if the touch
control is switched off, the locking
function does not allow the on/off
touch key (1) to be used. You must
first deactivate the lock.
To activate or deactivate the function,
keep touch key (8) pressed for
about 1 second. When the function is
activated, the pilot light (10) lights up.
Silencer of the beep
When the hob is on, if one presses the
touch key “+” and the locking touch
key (8) simultaneously for three
seconds, the beep that accompanies
each action will be deactivated.
This deactivation will not be applied to
all the functions, as for example the
beep for on/off, the ending of the timer
or the locking/unlocking of the touch
keys always remain activated.
To once again activate all the beeps
H
that accompany each action, again
simultaneously press the touch key
nd the locking touch key (8) for
a
three seconds.
Power Function
(Power concentration)
This function allows the hot plate to be
given extra power, in excess of its
ominal power. The said power
n
depends on the size of the hot plate
nd it can reach the maximum value
a
allowed by the generator.

Timer function
This function makes it easier to cook,
as you do not need to be present
throughout the process: the timed hot
plate(s) will switch off automatically
after the set time has lapsed. There is
a separate timer for each hot plate,
which allows all of the hot plates to be
timed simultaneously.
With these models you can use the
clock as a timer for the hotplates for
times ranging from 1 to 99 minutes. All
the cooking areas can be programmed
individually and in a simultaneous
manner.

Timing one hotplate
1 The cooking zone to be timed must
e selected. The related decimal
b
point must be lit up.
2 Select a power level for the hotpla-
te from 1 to 9 using the touch keys
or (12/11).
3 Press clock touch key (6). Timer
ndicator (7) will display 00.
i
Immediately afterwards, enter a
4
cooking time between 1 and 99
minutes, by using the touch keys
or (12/11). With the former
the value will start at 1, whereas
with the latter it will start at 60. By
pressing both at the same time the
value will be reset to 00.
When the clock indicator (7) stops flashing, it will start to count down the time
automatically. The indicator (3) relating
to the timed hotplate will alternately
display the selected power level and
the symbol.
When the clock reaches
from counting down minutes to seconds.
Once the selected cooking time has
elapsed, the heating zone being timed
is turned off and the clock emits a series
of beeps for several seconds. The timer
indicator will display a flashing 00 beside the indicator of the hotplate that has
been disconnected.
If you wish to time another hotplate at
the same time, repeat steps 3 and 4.
If the heating zone turned off is hot, its
indicator shows an H or otherwise an 0.
To turn off the audible signal touch any
sensor.
Changing the programmed time.
To change the programmed time, you
must press the touch key of the timed
hotplate (4) to select it and then the
clock (6). You may then read and
change the time.
DISCONNECTION OF THE TIMER
If you want to stop the timer before the
programmed time is up.
1 First select the hotplate and then
press clock touch key (6).
2 Use the touch key (11) to redu-
ce the time to 00. The clock is cancelled.
01, it will switch
For quick switch-off: repeat step 1 as
above. Simultaneously pressing the
nd touch keys (12 and 11) the
a
timer will be disconnected.
Fondue function
(depending on model)
This function is specially intended for
melting butter, cheese, chocolate, etc.
t uses a power level that is lower than
I
level 1. To access the function:
1 Activate the desired hotplate to
power level 1.
2 Press touch key (11). The
indicator will switch to displaying
the symbol.
To deactivate the function it is sufficient
to press the touch keys or
(12/11), and the indicator will switch to
respectively displaying the lower
power level 0 or the higher one 1.
Synchro function
(depending on model)
Using this function, it is possible that
two hotplates, identified in the screen
printing, work jointly, both to select a
power level as well as to activate the
timer function.
To activate this function simultaneously press the two related selection
touch keys (4). On doing this, the two
decimal points (9) of the hotplates will
light up and they will both be set to
power level 0.
To deactivate this function, again
simultaneously press the two related
selection touch keys (4).
Power Management func-
tion (depending on model)
Some models are equipped with a
power limiting function. This function
allows the total power generated by
the hob to be set to different values
selected by the user. To do this, for the
first minute after having connected the
hob to the power supply, it is possible
to access the power limiting menu.
1 Press the “+” touch key for three
seconds. The letter PL will appear
on the clock (6), if the model
has a timer or on the hotplate indicators (if it is not equipped with
one).
Press the locking touch key (8).
2
The different power values to which
he hob can be limited will appear
t
and these can be changed using
the “+” and “-” touch keys.
Once the value has been selected,
3
once again press the locking touch
ey (8). The hob will be limited
k
to the chosen power value.
If you want to change the value again,
you must unplug the hob and plug it in
gain after a few seconds. Thus you
a
will again be able to enter the power
limiting menu.
Every time the power level of a hotplate is changed, the power limiter will
calculate the total power the hob is
generating. If you have reached the
total power limit, the touch control will
not allow you to increase the power
level of that hotplate. The hob will beep
and the power indicator (3) will blink at
the level that cannot be exceeded. If
you wish to exceed that value, you
must lower the power of the other hotplates. Sometimes it will not be
enough to lower another by a single
level as this depends on the power of
each hotplate and the level it is set at.
It is possible that to raise the level of a
large hotplate that of several smaller
ones must be turned down.
If you use the quick switch-on at maximum power function and the said
value is above the value set by the
limit, the hotplate will be set to the
maximum possible level. The hob will
beep and the said power value will
blink twice on the indicator (3).
Safety switch off function
If due to an error one or several heating zones do not switch off, the
appliance will be automatically disconnected after a set amount of time (see
table 1).

Suggestions and
recommendations
* Use pots or pans with thick, comple-
tely flat bottoms.
* Pots/pans with a smaller diameter
than the shown heating area are not
recommended.
* Do not slide pots and pans over the
glass because they could scratch it.
* Although the glass can take knocks
from large pots and pans without
sharp edges, try not to knock it.
* To avoid damaging the ceramic
glass surface, do not drag pots and
pans over the glass and keep the
undersides of them clean and in
good condition.
Try not to spill sugar or products containing sugar on the glass
as while the surface is hot these
could damage it.
Cleaning and maintenance
To keep the appliance in good condi-
tion, clean it using suitable products
and implements once it has cooled
down. This will make the job easier
nd avoid the build-up of dirt. Never
a
use harsh cleaning products or tools

t
am-operated equipment.
Light dirt not stuck to the surface can
be cleaned using a damp cloth and a
gentle detergent or warm soapy water.
owever, for deeper stains or grease
H
use a special cleaner for ceramic hot
lates and follow the instructions on the
p
bottle. Dirt that is firmly stuck due to
being burned repeatedly can be removed using a scraper with a blade.
Slight tinges of colour are caused by
pots and pans with dry grease residue
underneath or due to grease between
the glass and the pot during cooking.
These can be removed using a nickel
scourer with water or a special cleaner
for ceramic hot plates. Plastic objects,
sugar or food containing a lot of sugar
that have melted onto the surface must
be removed immediately using a scraper.
Metallic sheens are caused by
dragging metal pots and pans over the
glass. These can be removed by cleaning thoroughly using a special cleaner for ceramic glass hot plates,
although you may need to repeat the
cleaning process several times.
Warning:
Handle the glass scraper
carefully. The blade could cause
injury!
If you use the scraper incorrectly, the blade could break and a
fragment could get caught between
the surrounding trim and the glass.
If this happens, do not try to remove it using your hands, carefully use
tweezers or a knife with a fine edge.
