FIRST TIME USE

POWER MANAGEMENT

At the time of purchase, the hob is set to the maximum possible power.

Adjust the setting in relation to the limits of the electrical system in your

home as described in the following paragraph.

N.B: Depending on the power selected for the hob, some of the cooking

zone power levels and functions (e.g. boil or quick reheating) could be

automatically limited, in order to prevent the selected limit from being

exceeded.

To set the power of the hob:

Once you have connected the device to the mains power supply, you

can set the power level within 60seconds.

Press the ”+” button for at least 3seconds. The display shows ”PL”.

Conrm by pressing .

Use the ”+”

and

”−”

buttons to select the desired power level.

The power levels available are: 2.5 kW – 4.0 kW – 6.0 kW – 7.2 kW.

Conrm by pressing

The power level selected will stay in the memory even if the power supply

is interrupted.

To change the power level, disconnect the appliance from the mains for at

least 60seconds, then plug it back in and repeat the steps above.

If an error occurs during the setting sequence, the

”EE” symbol will appear,

and you will hear a beep. If this happens, repeat the operation.

If the error persists, contact the After-Sales Service.

ACCESSORIES

POTS AND PANS

Only use pots and pans made from ferromagnetic

material which are suitable for use with induction hobs:

• enamelled steel

• cast iron

• special pots and pans in stainless steel, suitable

for induction cooking

To determine whether a pot is suitable, check for the

symbol (usually

stamped on the bottom). A magnet may be used to check whether pots are

magnetic.

The quality and the structure of the pot base can alter cooking performance.

Some indications for the diameter of the base do not correspond to the

actual diameter of the ferromagnetic surface.

Some pots and pans have only a part of the bottom in ferromagnetic

material, with parts in another material that is not suitable for induction

cooking. These areas may heat up at dierent levels or with lower

temperatures. In certain cases, where the bottom is made mainly of

non-ferromagnetic materials, the hob might not recognise the pan and

therefore not switch on the cooking zone.

To ensure optimum eciency, always use pots and pans with a at bottom

that distributes the heat evenly. If the bottom is uneven, this will aect

power and heat conduction.

NOOK

Empty pots or pots with a thin base

Do not use empty pots or pans when the hob is on. The hob is equipped with

an internal safety system that constantly monitors the temperature, activating

the ”automatic o” function where high temperatures are detected. When

used with empty pots or pots with thin bases, the temperature may rise very

quickly, and the ”automatic o” function may not be triggered immediately,

damaging the pan or the hob surface. If this occurs, do not touch anything,

and wait for all components to cool down.

If any error messages appear, call the service centre.

Minimum diameter of pot/pan base for the dierent cooking areas

To ensure that the hob functions properly, use pots of a suitable minimum

diameter (refer to the drawing below).

Always use the cooking zone that best corresponds to the minimum

diameter of the bottom of the pot.

Place the pot making sure it is well centered on the cooking zone in use.

It is recommended not to use pots that exceed the perimeter of the cooking

zone in use.

ADAPTER FOR POTS/PANS UNSUITABLE FOR INDUCTION

Using this accessory makes it possible to use pots and pans that are not

suitable for induction hobs. It is important to bear in mind that using it

aects eciency and consequently the time needed to heat food. Its

use should be limited because the temperatures reached on its surface

depend signicantly on the pot/pan used, its atness and the type of

food being cooked. Using a pot or pan with a smaller diameter than the

adapter disc may cause heat to build up that is not transmitted to the

pot or pan and this could blacken both the hob and the disc. Adapt the

diameter of your pots/pans and the hob to the diameter of the adapter.
