Setting
The induction hob is fitted with a residual
heat indicator, switch-off timer, automatic
cooking-time limiter and a childproof lock. On
this page and the following ones, you can
read how to use these facilities.
Switching on
1. Put a pan on a cooking zone.
2. Press the on/off button.
A zero appears in the display. You can set the
desired setting. If no cooking setting is
selected the cooking zone will switch off
automatically after a few seconds.
Power setting
1. Press the + button.
2. Select a higher or lower setting by pressing
the + or - buttons.
The cooking zones have 9 settings + a boost
setting.
Switching off
Switch off the cooking zone immediately with
the on/off button, or hold the - button until
zero appears in the display.
Power
The power, depending on the diameter of the
zone, is adjustable between 50 and 3100
Watts. See the table below.
Two cooking zones one in front of the other
are operated by one generator. The
advantage of this is that a high power level
can be realised for a cooking zone. This is
ideal for bringing food and liquids to the boil
very quickly, for frying and for searing large
quantities.
The generator divides the power between
both zones. Up until setting 5, this has no
consequences. However, if a higher setting is
used then the other cooking zone will
automatically be restricted.
If you set one of the zones to a higher level
then you must first switch the other zone to a
lower setting.

SAFETY
USE
Use of other equipment near the hob
■ Make sure that cables of electrical
machines (such as a mixer) do not end up
on hot cooking zones.
Never flambé under an extractor hood
■ The high flames can cause fire. Even if the
ventilator is switched off.
Pressure cleaner or steamcleaners
■ Never use a high pressure cleaner or
steam cleaner to clean the hob.
Glassceramic cooking surface
■ This cooking appliance is designed for
domestic use. Do not use the appliance for
any purpose other than food preparation.
■ Take care that the pan does not boil dry.
Damage caused by pans boiling dry is
excluded from the warranty.
■ The glass-ceramic cooking surface is very
strong but not unbreakable. A breakage
may occur if a sharp object falls on it.
■ The cooking surface must not be used for
storage.
■ Do not place any metal objects such as
knives and forks on the cooking area. They
could become hot.
During usage
■ Remember the very short heating up time
at the higher settings. Always stay close to
the hob if you have a cooking zone on a
high setting.
■ Never let an empty pan stand on a hotplate
that is switched on. While the hotplate is
protected and will switch itself off, the pan
will be extremely hot. The pan could be
damaged.
■ When the induction hob is in use keep
objects that can be affected by magnetic
fields (credit cards, bank cards, diskettes,
watches and similar items) away from its
vicinity. We advise those who have
pacemakers to consult a heart specialist
first.
■ Do not use the appliance below 5 °C.
