5 How to use the hob
5.1 General information on hob usage
General warnings
• Do not let any objects to fall on the hob.
Even small objects such as saltshakers
may damage the hob. Do not use cracked
hobs. Water may seep through these
cracks and cause a short circuit. If the
surface is damaged in any way (e.g. vis-
ible cracks), turn off the fuse first, then
call the authorized service to unplug the
product to reduce the risk of electric
shock.
• Do not use unbalanced and easily tilting
pots/pans on the hob.
• Do not heat the pots/pans and pots
empty. The pots and the appliance may
be damaged.
• Always turn off the hob’s burners after
each use.
• You shall damage the appliance if you
operate the hobs without any pot or pots/
pans. Always turn off the hobs after each
operation.
• After each use the cooking surface will
be hot, so do not put the plastic pots/
pans on the cooking surface. Clean such
material on the surface immediately.
• Sudden temperature changes on the
glass cooking surface may cause dam-
age, be careful not to spill cold liquids
during cooking.
• Put a sufficient amount of food in pots
and pans. Thus, you can prevent food
from pouring forth out of the pots/pans
and will not need to clean unnecessarily.
• Do not place the covers of pots and pans
on burners/zones.
• Place the pots by centering them on the
burners/zones. If you wish to place a pot
on a different burner/zone, do not slide it
towards the desired burner; rather, lift it
first and then put it on the other burner.
Operating principle of the induction hob
Induction hob is like an open circuit. The
circuit completes when a cooking pots/
pans suitable for induction cooking is
placed on it and an electronic system be-
low the glass surface generates a magnetic
field. The metal base of the pots/pans is
heated by taking energy from this magnetic
field. Thus, the heat is not generated on the
surface of the hob, but directly on the pots/
pans above it. Glass surface is heated with
the heat of the cooking pots/pans.
Advantages of cooking with induction
Induction hobs offer some advantages as
the heat is transferred directly to the cook-
ing pots/pans.
• Foods that overflow during cooking do
not burn rapidly as the glass cooking sur-
face is not heated directly. It is cleaned
more easily.
• Cooking shall be faster as the heat is
generated directly on the cooking pots/
pans. Thus, it saves time and energy with
respect to other hob types.
• As the heat is given directly to the cook-
ing pots/pans, there is no heat loss, and
it provides a more efficient cooking.
EN
DE
IT

EN / 13
• The fact that the heat transfer stops and
the cooking surface is not heated directly
when the cooking pots/pans is removed
from the cooking surface provides a
safer use against possible accidents
while cooking.
For a safe operation:
• Do not select high heating levels when
using non-sticking cooking pots/pans
coated with little amount of oil or used
without oil (teflon type).
• Do not use glass cooking surface as a
surface where you can place something
on it or as a cutting surface.
• Do not place metal objects such as cut-
lery or pot lids on your hob as they may
get hot.
• Never use aluminium foil for cooking.
Never place food wrapped in aluminium
foil on the induction zone.
• Keep magnetic objects such as credit
cards or tapes away from the hob while it
is operating.
• If there is an oven under your hob and it
is being operated, the sensors on the hob
may reduce the cooking level or turn off
the hob.
• Your hob has an automatic shut-off sys-
tem. Detailed information about this sys-
tem is provided in the following sections.
However, if you use thin based pots for
your cooking, these pots shall heat up
very quickly and the bottom of the pan
may melt and damage the cooking sur-
face and the appliance before the auto-
matic shut-off system is activated.
Cooking pots/pans
You shall use ferromagnetic, quality cook-
ing pots/pans which bear a label or warning
that it is compatible for induction cooking
only with your induction hob. Generally, the
higher the iron content, the better the cook-
ing pots/pans shall perform. The base dia-
meter of the cooking pots/pans shall
match the induction zone. Suggested di-
mensions are listed below.
Suitable pots/pans:
• Cast iron pots/pans
• Enamelled steel pots/pans
• Steel and stainless steel pots/pans (with
label or warning indicating that it is in-
duction compatible)
Unsuitable pots/pans:
• Aluminium pots/pans
• Copper pots/pans
• Brass pots/pans
• Glass pots/pans
• Pottery
• Ceramic and porcelain
Recommendations:
• Use flat bottomed cooking pots/pans
only. Do not use pots/pans with convex
or concave bases.
• Use cooking pots/pans with thick, pro-
cessed bases only. If you use thin based
pots, these pots shall heat up very quickly
and the bottom of the pan may melt and
damage the cooking surface and the ap-
pliance before the automatic shut-off
system is activated. Sharp edges may
cause scratches on the surface.
• The bases of some cooking pots/pans
have a smaller ferromagnetic field than
its true diameter. Only this area is heated
by the hob. Therefore, the heat is not
evenly distributed and the cooking per-
formance is decreased. Moreover, such
cooking pots/pans may not be detected
by large induction hobs. Thus, the cook-
ing hob shall be selected according to
the size of the ferromagnetic field.
EN
DE
IT

EN / 14
• Some cooking pots/pans have a base
that contains non-ferromagnetic materi-
als such as aluminium. These types of
cooking pots/pans may not heat ad-
equately or may not be detected by the
induction hob at all. In some cases, a bad
pots/pans warning may appear.
Equal distribution of the cookware
on the right and left and center
hobs for the selection of hobs af-
fects the cooking performance pos-
itively while cooking multiple meals
on the induction hobs.
Cooking pots/pans test
Test whether your pot is compatible with
cooking with an induction hob using the
methods below.
1. It is compatible if the base of your pot
holds a magnet.
2. It is compatible if does not flash
when you place your pot on the induc-
tion hob and turn on the hob.
Recommended cooking pots/pans sizes
Cooking zone diameter - mm Pot diameter - mm
145 min. 100 - max. 145
180 min. 100 - max. 180
210 min. 140 - max. 210
240 min. 140 - max. 240
280 min. 125 - max. 280
320 min. 125 - max. 320
Cooking zone with wide (flexi) surface width 230 - length 390
The detection of cooking pots/pans by the
induction hobs depend on the diameter and
material of the ferromagnetic in the base of
the pots/pans. To ensure detection of the
cooking pots/pans and achieve an efficient
cooking, the cooking pots/pans shall be se-
lected as per the size of your hob. The
cooking pots/pans sizes recommended for
hob sizes are given above.
Boiling behavior may vary depending on the
pot types, size of the pot and size of the
cooking zone. For a more homogenous
boiling behavior, a one step larger cooking
zone might be used. To use a larger cook-
ing zone does not cause wasting of energy
at induction hobs, because the heat is only
created in the relevant pot area.
Cooking zone with wide surface (flexi)
Your hob is equipped with hob cooking sur-
faces with wide surfaces (Flexi surfaces).
You may operate this cooking surface as
individual hobs independent from each
other for your smaller cooking pots/pans.
You may activate the combination function
for these cooking zones and transform
them to a single cooking surface for cook-
ing operations with your large cooking
pots.
You can use the I-II-III-IV cooking surfaces
on the right and left and the auxiliary cook-
ing surface in the middle for your small-
sized cooking pots/pans. However, if you
are going to cook with two small cooking
pots/pans, the I-II cooking surfaces and III-
IV cooking surfaces are used from a single
control unit, so when you place your small
pots in these surfaces, you will cook at the
same temperature level.
EN
DE
IT

EN / 15
Cooking pots/pans usage samples
They have 4 separate cooking sur-
faces on the cooking zone with wide
surface. However, you can use these
cooking zones for two different tem-
perature levels as I-II and III-IV. For
example, if you are going to cook in
4 separate small pots, a single tem-
perature level can be given to I-II
cooking areas and a single temper-
ature level to III-IV cooking areas.
For cooking operations on large
cooking pots/pans, place the pots/
pans so that it covers the centres of
both cooking zones and that it is
centred on the cooking zone.
Place the cooking pots/pans in the
center of the individual cooking sur-
face according to your pot/pan dia-
meter. If your pot/pan cover two
cooking areas, it should be placed in
the center of two cooking areas, if it
covers one cooking area, it should
be placed in the center of one cook-
ing area.
For cooking operation with a single
cooking pot/pan, place it in the cen-
ter of the cooking areas. Do not
place the pot/pan between cooking
surfaces.
Extended induction cooking plate
Your hob is equipped with auxiliary induc-
tion cooking area (s) between with wide
surfaces (Flexi surfaces). You can use the
cooking areas that you will make with your
large cooking pots/pans as auxiliary areas.
