ELEMENT AND CONTROL SETTING
ELEMENT AND CONTROL SETTING (ONLY ON BRIDGE OR GRIDDLE TWO LEFT ZONES OF 48”)
Control knobs and power level adjusting
The placement of each knob corresponds to the placement of the induction element that it controls.
To turn on any, PUSH and TURN the knob clockwise to the required setting, of the according cooking zone can be increased
between a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 9. To reduce the power of the cooking zone again it is necessary to turn the knob
anticlockwise.
The current power level is displayed on the display unit of the hob.
TIMER FUNCTION (FOR 36”/48” ONLY)
Timer function setting
NOTE: the timer is only intended as an acoustic advisor that recalls the attention of the user.
Timers have no effect on the heating elements. Cooking zones must always be stopped manually by rotating the knob in
the corresponding [OFF] position.
It’s possible to set the timer from 1 to 9h59 minutes: it beeps when the time has run out. This function is always available and is
indicated by the clock symbol “H” which is located in the middle of cooktop above the power setting displays.
Timer setting
• Push the Timer knob until “H000” appears, the first two digits H0 start to blink, turn the knob left/ right in order to set the timer
value (Hour), press the knob again to set the minutes following the same procedure, confirm the timer value by pressing the
knob.
• Pushing the knob before the time is expired is possible pause it (P is displayed), then restart it by pressing the knob again.
• To delate the timer setting keep pressed the knob for about 3 second until the display value disappears.

Melting function
If the knob is turned clockwise from zero position the first “power level” reached is the melting function.
The according 7 segment display unit shows this “u” symbol. The melting function is used to heat up
the bottom of the pot (40°C / 105°F inside the pot). This function is used to melt food. The maximum
time for using the melting function is limited to 2 hours.
Warming function
The warming function is the second “power level” which will be selected when turning the knob
clockwise. The according 7 segment display unit shows this “U” symbol. The warming function is used
to heat up the bottom of the pot to 70°C / 160°F (65°C / 150°F inside the pot). Using this function
the food can be kept warm or it can be used to warm up food gently.
The maximum time for using the warming function is limited to 2 hours.
Simmer function - only available on Bridge or Griddle (leftmost zones) of 48” range
The simmering function is the third “power level” which can be selected when turning the knob
clockwise. The segmented display will indicate this setpoint as “Π”. The simmering function is used
to heat up the bottom of the pot to 95°C / 205°F (90°C / 195°F inside the pot).
Use this function for cooking that requires a moderate heat to gently soften foods while slowly combining
seasonings and ingredients.
This is often used for soups, stews and slow cooking meat. The definition of simmer is to cook a liquid
just below the boiling point of 212 °F (100°C).
The maximum time for using the warming function is limited to 2 hours.
Booster function
To activate the boost function press and turn the knob clockwise in overwind position “P” until a beep
sounds. The symbol is as shown “P” and will be displayed. After 10 minutes the boost function will be
automatically switched off and the “P” is not shown on the display anymore and the induction control
will be set automatically at level 9.
Bridge function
On 48’’ ranges, the two left zones can be bridged (joined) to function as a single elongated cooking
zone.
Of the two cooking zones, the rear-left is the “passive cooking zone” and the front-left is the “master
cooking zone”. To bridge the two zones together: simultaneously turn both zones’ knobs clockwise all
the way to position “P” (Power Boost) and hold them there for at least 3s. Release both knobs which
will spring back to the setting of 9. The knob for the rear zone must remain in this position to maintain
the bridge. The display for that zone will show three dashes indicating it is bridged.
Now the knob for the front zone can be used to adjust the power level which will affect both zones
equally effectively operating as a single zone.
If the master control knob is turned to the off position or if the passive (rear) zone knob is adjusted at
all the bridge mode will be canceled and each zone will once again operate independently.
Cookware recognition function
The cooking level of cooking zone can be selected by turning the knob to the according position even
if no pot is in place. The output of power starts automatically as soon as an appropriate pot is put on
the cooking zone. If no pot is being detected the display changes to the shown “pot missing” symbol
after a short time. This symbol will be shown until a appropriate pot is put on the cooking zone or the
maximum time of 10 minutes expired. The same applies if the pot is removed during normal cooking.
After 10 minutes without detected pot the cooking zone switches off automatically and can only be
activated again after returning the knob into the OFF position.

12
Automatic Heat Up time function
The purpose of the Automatic Heat-Up time function is to automate raising food to the desired
temperature more quickly compared to simply setting the inductor to that setting.
Automatic Heat-Up function will act as a ‘fast preheat’ for an inductor. It will apply setting 9 wattage
in order to achieve your desired lower set temperature more quickly.
It is not recommended to use this function to preheat an empty pot or pan.
Example: you set an inductor to setting 4. It receives a set amount of wattage that is maintained
consistently throughout the setting. However, at that wattage it would take quite a bit of time to reach
temperature due to the lower wattage input. If you set the inductor at 9 it receives a great deal more
wattage which raises the temperature more quickly. How to you get to the temperature of setting 4 but
reach it with the speed and wattage of setting 9? Enter Automatic Heat-Up function.
To activate the Automatic Heat-Up time function, press and turn the knob counterclockwise to position
“A” on the knob (you will feel a spring-back resistance). Hold it on “A” until the “A” symbol shows on
the display of the inductor you are adjusting. It will blink waiting for the next input. Within 10 seconds
(while the “A” is flashing) select your desired cooking level from 1 through 8. This function will not work
if you set it to melt, keep warm or level 9 after the “A” starts flashing.
This will be the cooking level after the automatic heat-up is complete. During the automatic heat-up
period, the inductor’s display will alternate between “A” and the selected cooking level. Refer to the
table below for the time that Automatic Heat-Up mode will operate at setting 9 before automatically
switching to the actual level set.
Once the Automatic Heat-Up function is locked in any adjustment to the knob will cancel the mode and
the inductor will simply operate at the set temperature. So, if you feel that the power 9 has run long
enough, you can easily cancel the mode by rotating the knob to a new a different setting and back to
your original setting if so desired.

Control Lock function
The control lock is a device that protects the appliance from accidental or inappropriate use. With all
cooking zones turned off, simultaneously press and turn two knobs counterwise in overwind position
“A”. They need to be hold in that position for a least 2s until the symbols “L” appear on the displays,
then release the knobs.
30” / 36” 48”
In order to deactivate the CL function repeat the same procedure as for activating.
After unlocking all knobs have to be turned back in the zero position (if any knob was in a position
different from zero). The control is than off and can be operated as expected.
NOTE: If the knobs are not hold in the OWL position for long enough the CL will not be enabled /
displayed. If the knobs are hold in that position for more than 30 seconds the input is considered to be
invalid and a error message “Permanent use of key” will be displayed (flash symbol ).
Residual Heat indication
Cooking zones which are already switched off can still have a hot glass surface. In order to warn and
protect users from burning themselves this condition is visualized, the residual heat measurement is
done from the temperature sensor of each inductive cooking zone..
When the measured temperature drops below 60°C / 140°F on the glass the symbol indicating the
hot surface disappears.

6 - Advice on cooking
Some traditional methods of cooking, such as double boiler
(bain-marie) for creams, sauces, chocolate, etc. are no longer
necessary, because now you can cook these directly in the
pan, thanks to perfect power regulation and even temperature
distribution of the induction system.
You can use the “Booster” function with water and soups until
they boil, then use a lower level immediately to avoid too much
steam and to save energy.
When frying heat the oil to the highest power level, then turn
down if needed to a medium level when adding food to the
pan.
Always use pots and pans with a proper lid.
Reduce the selected power in the cooking area in time, in the
case of water do not let it boil unnecessarily for too long.
Always choose containers of an adequate size for the amount
of food to be cooked. A large pot which is not completely full
consumes a lot of energy.
For the best cooking results, metal pots and pans with a flat
bottom are recommended. Make sure the bottom of the pan
corresponds with the cooking area indicated on the glass.
To save energy cook vegetables and potatoes in a small
amount of water. Do not heat empty pans otherwise they may
be damaged and can also ruin the glass cooking area.

7 - Cooktop Griddle Operation
To prevent food from sticking, it is recommended to “season”
the griddle prior to use.
Seasoning the griddle
The griddle must be cleaned before first use.
Use hot water and mild detergent to remove any manufacturing
residues. Rinse and dry.
Turn on the ventilation hood to first or second speed.
Turn both griddle control knobs to level 9 for 10 minutes. After
10 minutes, turn the knobs to OFF and allow to cool down to
the point it is safe to touch.
While the surface is slightly warm, pour a small amount of
peanut or vegetable oil on a paper towel and spread evenly
on the cooking surface of the griddle plate.
Turn up the speed of your hood and then turn the griddle
control knobs to level 9. Heat until the oil on the griddle begins
to smoke, then turn the knobs to OFF and allow to cool.
Once cool, wipe off any excess oil.
Griddle care
Scrape grease from the griddle surface into the grease
collection trench after each use. When the surface has cooled,
wipe with a paper towel to remove excess grease or oil.
After each use, reapply a small amount of peanut or vegetable
oil on a paper towel and spread evenly.
Occasionally remove the seasoning. Pour 1/2 cup (100 ml)
warm water and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) griddle cleaner onto the
griddle and scrape residue into the grease collection trench,
then empty absorbing the grease and residues. Follow the
directions of the griddle cleaner.
When dry, reapply a small amount of oil for seasoning.
ATTENTION
The range must be level for the griddle to operate properly.
CAUTION
• Do not overheat the griddle. This can damage the coating
of the griddle.
• Do not use metal utensils that can damage the griddle
surface.
• Always turn off when not in use or lower the heat between
cooking loads.
• Do not use the griddle for other purposes, for example, as
a cutting board or a storage shelf.
• Do not cook excessively greasy foods. The grease may
spill over.
• The griddle may become very hot. Use oven gloves when
placing or removing the griddle.
• Do not remove the griddle until the cooktop grates,
surfaces, and griddle itself cool down.
• The griddle is quite heavy. Use both hands when placing
or removing the griddle.
Griddle operation
Turn on ventilation of the hood.
Turn both griddle control knobs to the desired temperature.
In order to pre-heat the griddle, set level 9 for 10 minutes and
then reduce it to level 5 or 6.
Cooking Tips
• Preheat the griddle plate in according with the following
chart.
• Use liquid cooking oil, cooking sprays, or butter for eggs,
pancakes, French toast, fish and sandwiches. This will help
reduce sticking. (Only use fats/oils that can tolerate high
temperature)
• Pat down wet food items with paper towel to prevent splatters
during grilling.
• Remove food particles with a metal spatula during cooking
to make the cleanup easier and to avoid including those
particles in the food.

Here are some suggestions for getting the most out of your
griddle. Similar to the reasoning behind the Automatic Heat Up
time function for individual inductors; we suggest that you use
level 9 to quickly heat up the griddle to the desired temperature
you ultimately wish to cook at. If you’ve ever cooked with gas,
you will already be familiar with this technique whereby you
preheat your pan at a higher setting and then reduce the flame
when it comes time to add oils and food for cooking.
The table below shows the time it will take to get the griddle
heated to a particular temperature when set at 9 versus when
simply set to the cooking temperature.
We strongly caution against leaving the griddle set at 9 beyond
the 5 setting time in the table of 5 min 30 sec. Cooking on a
griddle that is too hot will actually burn food (rather than sear
or cook it) and take cooking oils beyond their smoking point
which will result in poor tasting food.
Refer to the smoking point for various cooking oils and use
them with the griddle settings accordingly:
Type of Fat Smoke Point
Safflower Oil 510°F/265°C
Light/Refined Olive Oil 465°F/240°C
Soybean Oil 450°F/230°C
Peanut Oil 450°F/230°C
Clarified Butter 450°F/230°C
Corn Oil 450°F/230°C
Sunflower Oil 440°F/225°C
Vegetable Oil 400-450°F/205-230°C

EXPLODED VIEW OF GRIDDLE
Using the inductors without the griddle in place
If so desired, the trilaminate griddle can be removed to reveal
a glass surface that can also be used as two additional
cooking zones operating independently (as with the other
zones in the main cooktop area) or as a bridged zone (refer to
the instructions on how to operate these inductors in bridged
mode). Note: the effective cooking area, whose center is each
denoted by a dash on the glass, is round. If using individual
pots or pans on these zones, make sure they are of a size that
will not extend beyond the glass so as to prevent any damage
to the metal frame that protects the edges of the glass and
supports the griddle when it is in place.
