2.2 Cooking hob
* power levels are indicative 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.

3.4 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.
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 cooking
zone. If the symbol appears on the
display, it means the pan is not suitable.
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 cooking
zones used by returning the
appropriate knob to the O
position. Never rely solely on the
cookware detector.

Use
53
EN
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
notices it and turns 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 saucepan base is indicated
by a circle inside the cooking zone. Pans
with smaller diameters risk not being
detected and therefore not activating the
inductor.
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.
Use only cookware with a
perfectly flat bottom and suitable
for induction cooking zones. Using
cookware with an irregular bottom
could jeopardise the efficiency of
the heating system and prevent
cookware from being detected on
the cooking zone.

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 makes it possible to preserve
the vitamins 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
pan leads to a waste of energy.
Power levels
The power in the cooking zone can be
adjusted to various levels. The table shows
the levels suitable for various types of
cooking.
* see booster function
Under certain circumstances, if the
hob and the oven are being used
at the same time, the maximum
power limit that can be used by the
electrical system might be
exceeded.
Power level Suitable for:
0 OFF setting
1 - 2 Cooking small amounts of food
(minimum power)
3 - 4 Cooking

the display.
The power level can be increased at any
moment. The “maximum power” period will
automatically be modified.
Once the acceleration period is over the
power level will remain the same as the one
previously selected.
Booster function
• Turn the knob clockwise to the Pposition
for two seconds and then release. The
display shows the symbol . After 5
minutes the booster function will
automatically be disabled and cooking
will continue at power level 9(on zones
2and 3only).
Improper use
Danger of burns
• Supervise children carefully as they
cannot readily 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.
If the power is reduced, turning the
knob anti-clockwise, the heating
accelerator will automatically be
disabled.
The booster function allows you to
activate the cooking zone at
maximum power as long as 5
minutes. It can be used to bring a
large quantity of water to a boil
rapidly or to broil meat.
The booster function has priority
over the heating accelerator
function.

Use
56
Power control
The hob is fitted with a power control
module that optimises/limits consumption. If
the overall set power level exceeds the
maximum limit permitted, the electronic
circuit board will automatically manage the
power supplied by the cooking zones.
The module tries to maintain the maximum
deliverable power levels. Levels set by the
automatic control will appear on the
display.
The flashing of a power level indicates that
it will be automatically limited to a new level
selected by the power control module.
Control lock
1. With all cooking zones off,
simultaneously turn the two cooking zone
control knobs to the left (position A).
2. Keep them turned until the symbols
appear on the display.
3. Release the knobs.
In order to remove the control lock repeat
the same operations described previously.
Error codes
If the display shows one of the following
error codes , , contact Technical
Assistance.
Priority is given to the last zone set.
The control lock is a device that
protects the appliance from
accidental or inappropriate use.
If the knobs have been kept turned
to the Aposition for more than 30
seconds a fault message appears
on the display.
After a prolonged period of
interruption to the power supply,
the control lock will be
deactivated. If this is the case, turn
it back on as described above.

Functions list
Eco
Using the grill and the bottom
heating element plus the fan allows
you to heat food with low energy
consumption.
Static
As the heat comes from above and
below at the same time, this system
is particularly suitable for certain
types of food. Traditional cooking,
also known as static cooking, is
suitable for cooking just one dish at
a time. Perfect for all types of roasts,
bread and cakes, and in any case,
particularly suitable for fatty meats
such as goose and duck.

Use
58
Lower element
The heat coming just from the
bottom allows you to complete the
cooking of foods that require a
higher bottom temperature, without
affecting their browning. Perfect for
cakes, pies, tarts and pizzas.
Grill + rotisserie rod (on some
models only):
The rotisserie works in combination
with the wide grill element and
allows food to be perfectly
browned.
Grill
The heat coming from the grill
element gives perfect grilling results
above all for thin and medium
thickness meat and, in combination
with the rotisserie (where fitted),
gives the food an even browning at
the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, spare ribs and bacon.
This function enables large
quantities of food, particularly meat,
to be grilled evenly.
Fan with grill
The air produced by the fan softens
the strong heatwave generated by
the grill, grilling perfectly even very
thick foods. Perfect for large cuts of
meat (e.g. shin of pork).
Cooking with the grill and the fan
with grill must never exceed a
temperature of 220°C.
Fan with circulaire
The combination of the fan and the
circulaire heating element
(incorporated in the rear of the
oven) allows you to cook different
foods on several levels, as long as
they need the same temperatures
and same type of cooking. Hot air
circulation ensures instant and even
distribution of heat. It will be
possible, for instance, to cook fish,
vegetables and biscuits
simultaneously (on different levels)
without odours and flavours
mingling.
Turbo
The combination of fan assisted
cooking and traditional cooking
allows different foods to be cooked
on several levels extremely quickly
and efficiently, without odours and
flavours mingling. Perfect for large
volumes that call for intense
cooking.
