How induction works

For the user

•Congratulations on choosing an induction hob, a system which is

revolutionising cooking.

With your hob, because the heat required to cook the food is produced directly in

the interior of the pan, the ceramic top barely becomes hot for it receives ONLY

the heat from the pan placed on it.

Compared to a standard hob your induction hob is:

- MORE ECONOMICAL: when a pan is removed the heating zone switches off

instantly.

- FASTER: output of 2800 W available instantly on the heating zone

- MORE PRECISE: the hob reacts instantly to the controls

- SAFER: the temperature of the ceramic top remains low

•Operating principle:

The “induction” currents instantly heat the pan* which transfers its heat to the food

it contains.

*Enamelled steel, cast iron or stainless steel pans are suitable for induction

cooking.

Turning on a heating zone

Locate the touch controls on the keypad which corresponds to the cooking

zone on which you have placed your pan.

•Press the touch control.

The power level display shows 0, the hob is switched on.

•Set the power level required by pressing the

touch control.

Once you have pressed the touch control, if you do not select a power

level, the instruction will be cancelled automatically after 10 seconds.

•Adjust the power level during cooking

You can adjust the power level from 1to 9 at any time during cooking using the

or touch controls.

Turning off a heating zone

•Press the touch control of the zone concerned.

Using 2 cooking zones simultaneously

These two zones have a total of 2800 W of power available, distributed

automatically between the front and rear zones.

This means that when one zone is being used at maximum, the power of the other

is automatically reduced.

The most recent instruction always takes priority.

Use

For the user

For the user Safety

Check regularly that there are no objects (tea towel, paper, etc.) which might block the air

inlet located below your hob (see fitting P. 12).

•“Electronic” safety feature

A sensor constantly monitors the temperature of the electronic circuits. If the

temperature rises too high the power supplied by the hob will be reduced.

•“Empty pan” safety feature

Each heating zone is fitted with a sensor which constantly monitors its surface

temperature, so no more danger of overheating caused by empty pans.

•Detection of an object or a pan on a heating zone

A small object such as a fork, a spoon or even a ring left on the hob is not

detected as a saucepan.

The display flashes and no heating power is produced.

The safety system acts in the same way when it detects a pan which is not suitable

for cooking by induction.

IMPORTANT: If an oven is located under your hob (see installation options) the

thermal safety devices on the hob will prevent its simultaneous use when the oven

is in pyrolysis mode.

For the attention of wearers of pacemakers

and active implants:

The functioning of the hob is in conformity with current standards on electro-

magnetic interference.

Your induction hob also fully complies with the legal requirements (EC directives

89/336/EEC). It has been designed not to interfere with the operation of other

electrical appliances as long as these comply with the same legislation.

Your induction hob generates magnetic fields in its immediate area.

So that there is no interference between your hob and a pacemaker, the latter must

be designed in conformity with the relevant regulations.

In this respect, we can only guarantee the conformity of our own product.

Insofar as the conformity of the pacemaker or any incompatibility is concerned,

you should consult its manufacturer or your doctor.

For the user

Precautions for use

•

The ceramic surface is very strong, however, it is not unbreakable: do not

drop pans onto it.

•

Saucepans with damaged bases may trap and transfer materials which

could cause staining or scratching of the hob.

•

Do not drag saucepans across the hob surface as in the long term this will

damage the design on the ceramic top.

These faults, which do not prevent operation or use of the hob, are not

covered by the guarantee.

The hob must not be used as a storage area.

•

Do not store

LEANING

products or any products which might be

NFLAMMABLE

in the unit located under your hob.

•

When plugging electrical appliances into a socket nearby, make sure that the

power cable does not come into contact with the heating zones.

If a crack appears in the ceramic top,

disconnect the appliance from

the power supply immediately by removing

the fuses or activating the circuit breaker.

Do not use any part of the hob until the ceramic top has been

replaced

Useful advice

For the user Useful advice

Advice on cooking

•

Do not leave an empty pan on a heating zone.

•

The pan should be centred on the heating zone.

•

Never heat up an unopened tin, it may explode; this advice applies to all

cooking systems.

•

When you use a pan with a non-stick lining (Teflon type) to cook with no fat

or very little, preheat it at setting 6for a moment.

•

You are advised not to place metal cooking ustensils, cutlery, knives and

similar metal objects on the hob. They may become hot if they are near a

functioning cooking zone.

•

Using a pan which is smaller than the size of the cooking zone indicated on

the ceramic top is quite acceptable and does not result in a loss of energy,

unlike other, standard hobs (electricity, gas).

When cooking, never use aluminium foil

and never place products wrapped

in aluminium foil directly on the induction hob.

The aluminium will melt and damage your appliance irreparably.

For the user Choice of pans

Which types of pan are most suitable?

You probably already have some suitable pans.

•

PANS MADE OF ENAMELLED STEEL WITH OR WITHOUT NON-STICK COATING.

casserole, deep fryer, frying pan, grill pan, etc.

•

CAST IRON PANS

To prevent the ceramic top on your hob from being scratched choose a pan with

an enamelled base, otherwise never slide the pan across the surface of the hob.

•

STAINLESS STEEL PANS DESIGNED FOR INDUCTION COOKING

Most stainless steel pans are suitable for induction cooking (casseroles, sauce-

pans, frying pan, deep fryer, etc.).

•

ALUMINIUM PANS WITH SPECIAL BASE

Choose pans with a heavy base, which will ensure more even cooking results

(the heat is better distributed).

•NB. Pans which do not have a completely flat base may be suitable,

however, they must not be too misshapen.

This hob carries the “CLASS INDUCTION” symbol .

By choosing a pan bearing the same symbol, you will be assured of its complete

compatibility with your hob, under normal conditions of use.

To help you in your choice, a list of ustensils is supplied with this instruction book.

Which materials are incompatible?

PANS MADE OF GLASS, CERAMIC OR EARTHENWARE, OR OF ALUMINIUM WITHOUT A SPECIAL BASE OR OF COPPER,

OR OF CERTAIN TYPES OF NON-MAGNETIC STAINLESS STEEL.

The “pan” test

Its advanced technology enables your induction hob to recognise most types

of pan.

Place your pan on a heating zone at power setting 3:

- if the display does not flash your pan is compatible,

- if it flashes then your pan cannot be used for induction cooking.
