1 - THE OPERATING PRINCIPLE
1.1. - Analogy with the transformer
An induction hob operates due to the electromagnetic properties of most containers used on traditional
hobs.
one can compare this hob with a transformer of which the secondary winding would have been
shorted. A significant internal current arises therein and causes quick heating.

The saucepan can be compared with a shorted set of concentric whose internal resistance is not zero.
From the function keys, you control the electrical power supply to the transformer primary winding
which generates a magnetic field. This field induces currents at the bottom of the container placed on
the hob. These induced currents heat the container immediately, which transmits the produced heat to
the food inside. Cooking is performed efficiently with almost no loss of energy. The appliance heating
power is pushed to its maximum.

1.2. - Skin effect
An induced current in a metallic mass will only cause significant heating if it flows through a significant
resistor (P=RI
2
). A ferrite saucepan has only low resistivity. This is where a second natural
phenomenon occurs, which is called ‘Skin effect’.
1.2.1. - Definition
The propagation of the high-frequency current is not performed in the same way as a direct current.
Contrary to direct current, where current flows with consistency in a conductor, in HF its density varies
and decreases exponentially as you move away from the conductor surface.
Example on copper wire supplied with high frequency
The current flows predominantly in wire periphery ‘e’. The decrease in
the effective cross-sectional area of the conductor causes an increase
in its resistance.
1.2.2. - Application
At a 20KHz frequency, and for a steel saucepan (magnetic ferritic material), the thickness of the
saucepan in which the induced currents flow is approximately 35 µm. This allows generating a current
in only a part of the saucepan bottom. The resistance becomes significant and the heating consequent
therein.
For a non-ferritic material, such as aluminium, the thickness is approximately 590 µm, the saucepan
behaves then as a quasi-zero resistor (short-circuit), which is prejudicial to electronics. The board will
take this discrepancy into account and will display the phenomenon by making the control panel flash.
Therefore, this type of material is not adapted.

2 - THE PERFORMANCES
2.1. - Compared efficiencies
The efficiency is the ratio that exists between
consumed energy (gas or electricity) and energy
converted into heat. Large differences exist between
induction, range-top appliance, and other cooking
modes. These efficiencies may vary depending on
the diameter and quality of the container used.
2.2. - Exceptional high speed
Thanks to the available power and high efficiency, this hob is much more rapid than an electrical or gas
hob. Time necessary to increase the temperature of two litres of water from 20°C to 95°C:
2.3. - Savings
Removing the container from a source is sufficient to stop the cooking immediately, there is no energy
waste. As long as there is no container on a source, the source does not heat, the power indicator
lights are flashing. This hob consumes thus much less energy than hobs fitted with traditional gas or
electricity hobs.
2.4. - Information
Very flexible to use, it reacts instantaneously to controls. The power available on a source can vary
from 50 to 2800 W (and more in certain cases!)
2.5. - Safety
The induction principle makes that heat is produced directly in the container. The temperature of the
glass top is much lower and risk of burn is reduced, especially for children. Return to 60°C after
boiling of one litre of water:

3 - THE SAUCEPANS
3.1. - Compatible containers
Induction requires appropriate saucepans.
As cooking is performed by magnetic field, conductive materials are necessary. A simple means is
used to check whether an implement is compatible or not: A magnet should stick to the bottom.
During cooking, some pans can emit some noise (jangling). This is normal and due to the magnetic
field. There is no risk, neither for the hob, nor for the pan.
The containers compatible with the induction are:
Containers in enamelled steel with or without non-stick coating.
- Advantages:
• Compatibility guaranteed with induction (good efficiency)
• Low noise.
• Wide range of cooking possible.
- Disadvantages:
• Worse heat distribution pan diameters < 230mm.
• Cleaning is more difficult.
• Bad reaction if the pan is empty bottom distortion, possible breaking of the enamel
Cast-iron containers with or without enamelled bottom.
- Advantages :
• Compatibility guaranteed with induction (good efficiency)
• Good heat distribution (with low cooking power).
• Reduced noise of the pan.
• Easy cleaning
• Good to cook lovingly
- Disadvantages :
• The non enamelled bottom may scratch the glass.
• Bad reaction if the pan is empty Cast iron doesn’t move but can break.
• Please note: Do a preheating systematically before a full power cooking
Certain containers in stainless steel: multilayer stainless steel, ferritic stainless steel. Most
stainless steel containers are suitable if they pass the magnet test. (Saucepans, stew pots, frying
pans, deep fryers...).
- Advantages :
• Very good heat distribution (For the pan with a stuck bottom).
• Good reaction if the pan is empty --> Stainless steel becomes blue
• Easy to clean.
• Wide range of cooking.

COOKWARE
- Disadvantage :
• Bad heat distribution (For the pan without a stuck bottom).
• Compatibility is not always guaranteed: Some stainless steels give bad results.
• When the hob recognizes a poor reaction of the pan, the power is automatically reduced.
Advice: Use an enamelled pan to do some tests
• The pan is noisier.
Aluminium containers with special bottoms.
• Aluminium containers are used more and more. Unfortunately, the quality and the thickness of the
stainless steel are not always good.
Containers with a thick flat base for uniform cooking have to be decided upon (heat is better distributed).
Glass, earthenware, ceramic, copper and aluminium containers
without special bottoms are not compatible.
• Choose, if possible, containers with very thick bottoms.
• Avoid any containers with rough (non-enamelled cast iron for example)
or dented bottoms that might scratch the plate.
• Don't pull the containers, put them down.
3.2. - Class induction
A "CLASS INDUCTION" marking, mark of excellence, appears on the hob.
By choosing a container bearing the same logo, the consumer will make
sure of the perfect compatibility with his/her induction hob, under normal
operating conditions.
To help the consumer pick, a list of implements tested and approved is appended to the user manual.

5.1. - Building in
A minimum dimension must be measured from the rear and side walls.
Protection of cut sections: The particle wood used to make the work tops swells relatively quickly
when coming into contact with humidity. Varnish or special adhesive should be applied to the edge of
the cut out to protect it from steam or condensation that could appear below the work top.
A joint provides the seal with the worktop. It should be glued below the edges of the hob.
After the work top has been cut out and the seal around the hob has been installed, place the hob
directly into its position. The vitroceramic top should rest on the edges of the work top in contact with
the seal. (Do not use mounting brackets to secure the hob. This could cause mechanical stress and
damage to the vitroceramic top).

5.2. - Ventilation
A great many After-Sales Service problems relate to poor ventilation. The induction hob is fitted with
cooling fans that suck air in through the rear and push it out towards the front. During installation, the
recommendations made in the user instructions must be followed scrupulously.
Depending on the layout of the kitchen, the hob should be installed:
Above a unit with a door or drawer
Above an oven of the same brand
Above an oven of another brand
Above a dishwasher
In order to deal with the many ventilation problems, the MATRIX
induction hob is fitted with housing that has a small recess on the
front side. This has vent holes to allow better evacuation of the
warm air.
Above a unit with door or drawer
Installation must allow intake of fresh air through the rear and output through the front.
Above an oven of the same brand
Installation must allow intake of fresh air through the rear
and an outlet at the front of 4 mm minimum.
Above an oven of another brand
Installation must allow intake of fresh air through the rear, an
outlet at the front of 4 mm minimum and the oven must be
insulated from the hob (5 cm minimum).
Above a dishwasher
The top of the dishwasher must be covered
with an insulation sheet, reference 77X7781.

6.3.8. - Automatic cookware detection
The induction hob is fitted with an automatic cookware detector.
Cookware test: - Place your vessel on a cooking area, power 4.
- If the display remains steady, your cookware is compatible.
- If the display flashes, your cookware is not compatible with induction cooking.
Magnet test: If a magnet sticks to the base of the cooking vessel, it is compatible.
Do not place any lids on the hob. It could be treated as a cooking vessel.
Do not place cooking vessels touching each other, otherwise they may not be recognized by the
hob (advised distance: 4cm).
6.3.9. - "Small Items" safety
A small pan, a fork, a spoon or a ring left on the hob is not detected as a piece of cookware. The
display flashes and no heat is produced.
6.3.10. - Pacemakers and active implants
The hob operates in compliance with currently applicable standards concerning electromagnetic
disturbances. Thus the induction cooking hob perfectly satisfies all legal requirements (89/336/EEC
directives). It was designed not to disturb the functioning of other electrical appliances so long as they
are also compliant with these same regulations. An induction hob generates magnetic fields in its
immediate surroundings.
In order to avoid interference with a pacemaker, the pacemaker must be designed in compliance with the
regulations that apply to it. For all information regarding the compliance or otherwise of a pacemaker, the
consumer should contact the manufacturer or general practitioner.
6.3.11. - Temperature limiter
Each cooking zone is equipped with a safety sensor that constantly monitors the temperature of the
bottom of the cookware. The purpose is to protect the user and the hob from abnormal operations, for
example, heating an empty pan.
The principle of this safety mechanism is to check constantly the temperature of the base of the vessel
with a sensor (NTC) fitted below the vitroceramic so as to adjust the power and stabilise the
temperature at 300°C . This temperature is programmed as it is below the degradation limit of PTFE
(Non-stick coating of market utensils). Degradation is observed from 340/350°C.

6.4. - “RoHS” standard
Since June 2006, the electronics cards fitted to induction hobs have met the RoHS standard.
Many electrical and electronic devices may contain dangerous substances targeted by the “RoHS”
European directive (restriction of the use of substances that are harmful to the environment).
The European directive 2002/95/EC transposed to French law through the decree DEEE 2005-829 of
20th July 2005, as from 1st July 2006 strictly limits the use of 4 heavy metals (lead, cadmium,
chrome, mercury) and two brominated flame retardants (PBB = polybrominated biphenyls and PBDE
= polybrominated diphenyl ethers) in the manufacture of 8 categories of electrical and electronic
equipment.
6.5. - Maintenance
Vitroceramic is a silica-based glassy material that does not
expand like glass. Its dimensions hardly alter until 750°C
since a portion of the molecules contained in it expand with
heat, whilst an equal number contract. One of the
characteristics of this material is that it is a poor heat
conductor, hence it limits heat loss.
The smooth surface of the vitroceramic and the touch-sensitive controls facilitate cleaning.
Difficulties encountered in cleaning radiant and halogen zones do not generally apply to induction hobs
in view of the low temperatures reached by the hob. However, a pan with a wet base placed on the
cooking zone will leave limescale marks. Sugary splatters must be cleaned immediately as it will
caramelise when in contact with the hot vitroceramic. As it cools, it contracts and damages the surface.
Finally, the vitroceramic hob is not a work surface and therefore is easily scratched.
Do not leave dirt on the hot surface
Sugar-based marks and splatters should be removed immediately as they can damage the
vitroceramic
Do not rub surface with abrasives
Do not use the cooking hob as a work surface
Never leave paper or aluminium containers on the cooking area
Avoid sliding the cookware as this could cause scratch marks (Be careful of grit, etc.)
Avoid knocking the edge of the vitroceramic top or the touch-screen glass as these could break.
Cleaning products
Burnt fat on the top of the vitroceramic may be easily cleaned using specific products approved and
handled by the After Sales Service:
94X3140: Scrubbing sponge + silicone polishing gel + soft cloth.
AS0000396: Gel re-fill for the above products.
