5. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
INDUCTION COOKING ZONES
For induction cooking zones a strong
electro-magnetic field creates the heat in
the cookware very quickly.
5.1 Cookware for induction
cooking zones
Use the induction cooking zones
with correct cookware.
10 www.electrolux.com

Cookware material
•correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, the bottom made
of multi-layer (with correct mark from a
manufacturer).
•not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if …
• ... some water boils very quickly on a
zone set to the highest heat setting.
• ... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of
the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware
must be as thick and flat as possi-
ble.
Cookware dimensions: induction cook-
ing zones adapt to the dimension of the
bottom of the cookware automatically to
some limit.
5.2 Use of the cooking zones
IMPORTANT
Put the cookware on the cross which is
on the surface that you cook. Cover the
cross fully. The magnetic part of the bot-
tom of the cookware must be 125 mm
minimum. Induction cooking zones adapt
to the dimension of the bottom of the
cookware automatically. You can cook
with the large cookware on two cooking
zones at the same time.
5.3 The noises during operation
If you can hear
• crack noise: cookware is made of dif-
ferent materials (Sandwich construc-
tion).
• whistle sound: you use one or more
cooking zones with high power levels
and the cookware is made of different
materials (Sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not re-
fer to appliance malfunction.
5.4 Energy saving
How to save energy
• If it is possible, always put the lids on
the cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone be-
fore you start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food
warm or to melt it.
The cooking zone efficiency
The cooking zone efficiency is related to
the diameter of the cookware. The cook-
ware with a smaller diameter than the
minimum receives only a part of the pow-
er generated by the cooking zone. For the
minimum diameters see the Technical In-
formation chapter.
5.5 Öko Timer (Eco Timer)
To save energy, the heater of the
cooking zone deactivates before
the count down timer sounds. The
difference in the operation time
depends on the heat setting level
and the length of the cooking op-
eration.
5.6 The Examples of cooking
applications
The relation between the heat setting and
the cooking zone consumption of power
is not linear.
When you increase the heat setting it is
not proportional to the increase of the
cooking zone consumption of power.
It means that the cooking zone with the
medium heat setting uses less than a half
of its power.
The data in the table is for guid-
ance only.

ment les instructions fournies. Le fabricant ne peut être
tenu pour responsable des dommages et blessures liés à
une mauvaise installation ou utilisation. Conservez tou-
jours cette notice avec votre appareil pour vous y référer
ultérieurement.
1.1 Sécurité des enfants et des personnes
vulnérables
AVERTISSEMENT
Risque d'asphyxie, de blessure ou d'invalidité per-
manente.
• Cet appareil peut être utilisé par des enfants de plus de
8 ans, ainsi que des personnes dont les capacités phy-
siques, sensorielles et mentales sont réduites ou dont
les connaissances et l'expérience sont insuffisantes, à
condition d'être surveillés par une personne responsa-
ble de leur sécurité.
• Ne laissez pas les enfants jouer avec l'appareil.
• Ne laissez pas les emballages à la portée des enfants.
• Tenez les enfants et les animaux éloignés de l'appareil
lorsqu'il est en cours de fonctionnement ou lorsqu'il re-
froidit. Les parties accessibles sont chaudes.

fants, nous vous recommandons de l'activer.
• Les enfants ne doivent pas nettoyer ni entreprendre
une opération de maintenance sur l'appareil sans sur-
veillance.
1.2 Sécurité générale

FRANÇAIS 19

• Ne faites pas fonctionner l'appareil avec un minuteur
externe ou un système de commande à distance.
• Il peut être dangereux de laisser chauffer de la graisse
ou de l'huile sans surveillance sur une table de cuisson
car cela pourrait provoquer un incendie.
• N'essayez jamais d'éteindre un feu avec de l'eau. Met-
tez à l'arrêt l'appareil puis couvrez les flammes, par
exemple avec un couvercle ou une couverture ignifuge.
• N'entreposez rien sur les surfaces de cuisson.
• N’utilisez pas de nettoyeur vapeur pour nettoyer l'ap-
pareil.
• Ne posez pas d'objets métalliques tels que couteaux,
fourchettes, cuillères ou couvercles sur la table de cuis-
son car ils pourraient chauffer.
• Si la surface vitrocéramique est fissurée, mettez à l'ar-
rêt l'appareil pour éviter tout risque d'électrocution.
• Après utilisation, éteignez toujours la zone de cuisson à
l'aide de la manette de commande correspondante et
ne vous fiez pas à la détection des récipients.
2. INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ
2.1 Installation
AVERTISSEMENT
L'appareil doit être installé unique-
ment par un professionnel qualifié.
• Retirez l'intégralité de l'emballage.
• N'installez pas et ne branchez pas un
appareil endommagé.
• Suivez scrupuleusement les instructions
d'installation fournies avec l'appareil.
• Respectez l'espacement minimal requis
par rapport aux autres appareils.
• L'appareil est lourd, prenez toujours
des précautions lorsque vous le dépla-
cez. Portez toujours des gants de sécu-
rité.
• Isolez les surfaces découpées à l'aide
d'un matériau d'étanchéité pour éviter
que la moisissure ne provoque de gon-
flements.
• Protégez la partie inférieure de l'appa-
reil de la vapeur et de l'humidité.
• N'installez pas l'appareil près d'une
porte ou sous une fenêtre. Les réci-
pients chauds risqueraient de tomber
de l'appareil lors de l'ouverture de cel-
les-ci.
• Si l'appareil est installé au-dessus de ti-
roirs, assurez-vous qu'il y a suffisam-
ment d'espace entre le fond de l'appa-
reil et le tiroir supérieur pour que l'air
puisse circuler.
• Assurez-vous de laisser un espace de
ventilation de 2 mm entre le plan de tra-
vail et l'avant de l'unité qui se trouve
dessous. La garantie ne couvre pas les
dommages causés par l'absence d'un
espace de ventilation adéquat.
