the SLIDER control (D1).
3- Press the Timer button (N), the display will show
At this point, the hob indicator (O) with the timer function
active, starts to flash.
4- Set the unit time (N2) desired from 0 to 9 by acting on
the SLIDER control (D1) e.g.
5- After a few seconds the unit value (N2) and the tenths
(N1) will appear fixed on the display
- if you want to set a time exceeding 9 minutes e.g:
, just run your finger over the SLIDER control (D1).
- if, on the contrary, no operation is performed, it stops
flashing after a few seconds and the Timer display (Q)
will show the cooking time previously set
6- At the end of the programmed time, the timer display
(Q) and the hob indicator (O) will start to flash followed
by an acoustic sound.
To deactivate the acoustic signal just press the timer button
N, otherwise it will deactivate automatically after 2 minutes.
To deactivate the timer function before the set time:
- Select the cooking zone (E) and press one of the two
buttons (N). When the zone indicator (R) on display (E)
stops flashing, the function is no longer active.
Note: to display the residual cooking time, just press the
cooking zone (E) of interest selection button.
• Minute Minder (Countdown):
Attention!This function can only be used if no cook-
ing zone (E) has the Timer inserted.
- The Minute Minder allows to set an established count-
down that goes from 1 to 99 minutes.
On expiry of the time, the hob emits an acoustic signal
without changing the active functions.
- The function activates only if the cooking level is set at
"0" on all displays (R).
- Press the Timer button (N) and set the time with the
same procedure as the Timer function, with the unique
exception that the indicators (O) do not switch on.
Note: whenever the Timer is to be activated on at least
one zone, the Minute Minder deactivates automatically.
To activate the Timer instead of the Minute Minder,
proceed as follows:
1- Use one of the buttons to select (E) the cooking zone
where the timer function is to be activated.
2- Set the cooking level by acting on the SLIDER control
(D1).
3- Select the Timer button (N).
4- Select the button (E) again where the timer function is
to be activated.
5- Select the Timer button (N).
6- Set the cooking time by acting on the SLIDER control
(D1).
• Booster (Fig.2 (S)):
Depending on the appliance model, it may be fitted with
a Booster system which can be used to speed up cook-
,
.
;
.
ing times through the application of a power level which
is greater than the nominal value, within a defined period
of time.
The cooking areas provided with this function are indicated
by a letter (Z).
To activate the Booster, switch the interested cooking
area on at any power level and press key S (Fig.2 - Fig.3).
This allows to reach higher temperatures in a short time
disbursing the maximum power possible.
The letter P on the display indicates that the function is
active. This will be displayed for about 10 minutes, then the
cooking area will automatically turn back to power level 9.
- The Booster may not activate if, the cooking zone (with
the letter Z) has been previously activated with high tem-
perature levels.
- In order to use the Booster function, wait for the P on
the display R to stop flashing and the temperature inside
the cooking surface to decrease.
• Integrated power control (Fig.4):
Each phase (this is divided into two zones in a vertical line:
F1 e F2) is capable of using a maximum power of 3,700W.
If this is exceeded for example by activating the Booster,
the software automatically lowers power of the previously
selected zone until it reaches the allowed power level.
The display of the zone with limited power will begin to
flash for about 3 seconds.
During this time it is possible to modify the power level.
• Heat up (Fig.2 (L1)) (Rapid heating):
The Heat up function can be used to set the cooking zone
to its maximum temperature for a specified period of time,
after which the temperature will return to a lower value
set previously.
To activate the Heat up function, select one of the cook-
ing zones (E).
Set the cooking level at "9" by acting on the SLIDER
control (D1), press Heat up (L1)and the cooking zone
will show the letter "A". This means that the (Heat up)
function is active.
Set the desired cooking level (between 1 and 8); the
cooking zone display will now show the letter "A" and the
desired cooking level (e.g. 6) alternately.
- If no cooking level variation is made, the indicator (D2)
switches off.
Note: it is possible ONLY to increase the previously-set
cooking level:
1- Select the cooking zone (E) where the Heat up function
is active.
2- Increase the desired temperature by running your finger
over the SLIDER control (D1).
When the Heat up function has finished running, the hob
will emit a sound signal or BEEP; the relevant cooking
zone will continue to operate and the cooking level set
previously, e.g. 6.
