2.2 Hob
* Power levels are approximate and can vary according to the pan used or the settings made.
Advantages of induction cooking • Energy saving thanks to the direct
transmission of energy to the pan
(suitable magnetisable cookware is
required) compared to traditional
electric cooking.
• Improved safety as the energy is only
transmitted to the pan placed on the hob.
• High level of energy transmitted from the
induction cooking zone to the base of
the pan.
• Rapid heating speed.
• Reduced danger of burns as the cooking
surface is only heated under the base of
the pan; foods which overflow do not
stick.

The hob is equipped with an
induction generator for each
cooking zone. Each generator
located under the glass ceramic
cooking surface creates an
electromagnetic field which
induces a thermal current in the
base of the pan. This means the
heat is no longer transmitted from
the hob to the pan but created
directly inside the pan by the
inductive current.

Racks and trays
Racks and trays have to be inserted into the
side guides until they come to a complete
stop.
• The mechanical safety locks that prevent
the rack from being removed
accidentally must face downwards and
towards the back of the oven cavity.
3.2 Using the hob
All the appliance’s control and monitoring
devices are located together on the front
panel. The relevant cooking zone is
indicated next to each knob.
Just turn the knob clockwise to the required
power setting.
Cookware suitable for use in induction
cooking
Cookware used on the induction cooking
surface must be made of metal, with
magnetic properties and a sufficiently large
base.
Suitable cookware:
• Enamelled steel cookware with thick
bases.
• Cast iron cookware with an enamelled
base.
• Cookware in multilayer stainless steel,
ferritic stainless steel and aluminium with
a special base.
Unsuitable cookware:
• Copper, stainless steel, aluminium,
fireproof glass, wood, ceramic and
terracotta cookware.
Gently insert racks and trays into
the oven until they come to a stop.
Clean the trays before using them
for the first time to remove any
residues left by the manufacturing
process.
On first connection to the electrical
mains, an automatic check will be
carried out that will switch on all
indicator lights for a few seconds.
After use, turn off the hot plates
used by returning the appropriate
knob to the Oposition. Never rely
solely on the cookware detector.

Use
70
To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a
magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted,
the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If
you do not have a magnet, you can put a
small amount of water in the pan, place it
on a cooking zone and start the hot plate. If
the symbol appears on the display, it
means the pan is not suitable.
Cookware recognition
When there is no saucepan on a cooking
zone or if the saucepan is too small, no
energy will be transmitted and the
symbol will appear on the display.
If there is a suitable saucepan on the
cooking zone, the recognition system
detects it and switches on the hob to the
power level set using the knob. Energy
transmission is also interrupted when the
saucepan is removed from the cooking
zone (the symbol will be shown on the
display).
If the cookware recognition function is
activated in spite of the saucepan or frying
pan on the cooking zone being smaller
than the zone itself, only the necessary
energy will be transmitted.
Cookware recognition limits: The minimum
diameter of the pan base is indicated by the
cross on the cooking zone.
Pans with smaller diameters risk not being
detected and therefore not activating the
inductor.
Use only cookware with a
perfectly flat bottom which is
suitable for induction hot plates.
Using cookware with an irregular
bottom could jeopardise the
efficiency of the heating system
and prevent cookware from being
detected on the hot plate.

Use
71
EN
Limiting the cooking duration
The hob has an automatic device which
limits the duration of use.
If the cooking zone settings are not
changed, the maximum duration of
operation for each zone depends on the
power level selected.
When the device for limiting the duration of
use is activated, the cooking zone turns off,
a short alert sounds and, if the zone is hot,
the symbol appears on the display.
Protection from overheating
If the hob is used on full power for a long
period, the electronics will have trouble
cooling down if the room temperature is high.
To avoid excessively high temperatures
forming in the electronics, the power to the
cooking zone is reduced automatically.
Advice on energy-saving
• The diameter of the base of the pan must
correspond to the diameter of the
cooking zone.
• When buying a pan, check whether the
diameter indicated is that of the base or
the top of the pan, as the top is almost
always larger than the base.
• When preparing dishes with long
cooking times, you can save time and
energy by using a pressure cooker,
which also helps to retain vitamins
contained in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker
contains enough liquid as, if there is not
enough and it overheats, this may cause
damage to both the pressure cooker and
the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover pans with a
suitable lid.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of
food to be cooked. A large, half-empty
saucepan leads to a waste of energy.

Improper use
Danger of burns
• Supervise children carefully as they
cannot easily see the residual heat
indicator. The cooking zones remain hot
for a certain period of time even after
they have been turned off. Make sure
that children never touch the hob.
Each cooking zone is equipped
with a heating accelerator that
allows the maximum power to be
delivered for a time that is
proportional to the selected
power.
