1. Usage and safety in
accordance with regulations
The Navigenio serves as mobile hotplate and as
mini baking oven. It should be used only for this
purpose. The Navigenio is designed exclusively for
use in the household and not for use in the
commercial field.
Improper usage could lead to danger. Please
observe and follow the user manual – particularly
the information in this chapter.
Suitable pots
For usage as mobile hotplate:
AMC pots 16, 20 and 24 cm up to max. 6.5 l,
besides pans 28 cm
Wok 36 cm, Oval Griddle and Oval Grill 38 cm
Arondo 28 cm, Eurasia 24 and 28 cm
For usage as mini baking oven (overhead
function):
AMC pots 20 and 24 cm
Avoiding damages, avoiding improper
usage
To avoid improper usage …
use the Navigenio with a coaster. This is
especially important on heat-sensitive
surfaces (e.g. plastic, antique tables).
never use wobbly bases like for e.g. an
inverted lid.
do not transport pots on the Navigenio.
never prepare food directly or in packed
form (plastic containers or bowls of
aluminium foil) on the glass-ceramic
cooking zone.
do not use the combi-bowls and the
serving bowls for gratinating with the
Navigenio.
with the overhead-application, leave
enough space between Navigenio and
the food. As a rule, the volume filled in
the pot should not exceed 2/3.
before cooking begins, always ensure
that the base of the pot and the
glass-ceramic cooking zone are clean
and dry.
always clean the Navigenio properly.
Tampering of the Navigenio is to be
avoided.
do not use the Navigenio to heat a
room as the durability of the radiator
might be reduced considerably by it.
the Navigenio is not meant to be opera-
ted with an external timer or a separate
remote control system, e.g. an auto-
matic remote-controlled socket.
follow instructions in chapter 4
“Maintenance and care”.
Possible dangers through electricity
The appliance is operated electrically.
Avoid danger of electrocution:
Connect only to a power supply with
voltage mentioned in the model-label.
Use only the original connection cable.
Extension cable must be of the same
type.
The power cord should not under any
circumstances, come in contact with the
hot stove or cooking utensil.
In case the glass-ceramic cooking zone is
damaged or breaks, pull out the power
plug immediately.
To avoid overheating …
with the Navigenio in hotplate function,
do not heat an empty pot longer than
10 minutes.
do not operate the Navigenio as mini
baking oven (overhead function) on an
empty pot.
For usage as mini baking oven (over-
head function) with pot on the stove,
to avoid overheating, switch it on only
at low level.
To avoid damages …
do not use Navigenio as mini baking
oven (overhead function) over an open
gas stove.
do not use the glass-ceramic cooking
zone as space for cutting. Do not use
pointed objects on the glass-ceramic
cooking zone and avoid single point
concentrated loads.

2.2 Function and application
Usage as mobile hotplate
As mobile hotplate for kitchen and leisure, ever-
ywhere where an electrical connection is available.
Usage as mini baking oven (overhead
function) for gratinating or baking
For gratinating, the Navigenio can be placed
overhead on the pot (i.e. with the glass-ceramic
cooking zone facing down). Quick, uncomplicated
and energy-saving.
For baking, the Navigenio can be placed as an
additional source of heat overhead on the pot on
a electrical stove.
Along with the Audiotherm, possibilities of further
applications for automatic cooking and baking
arise:
Usage as automatic hotplate with Audiotherm
Usage as mini baking oven (overhead function)
with Audiotherm (Timer-Automatic for gratinating
and baking)
See user manual of “AMC Audiotherm”.
