STARTING-UP AND APPLIANCE MANAGEMENT
Before the first use
Clean your hob with a damp cloth, and then dry the surface thoroughly. Do not use detergent which
risks causing blue-tinted colour on the glass surface.
Induction principle
An induction coil is located under each heating zone. When it is engaged, it produces a variable
electromagnetic field which produces inductive currents in the ferromagnetic bottom plate of the pan.
The result is a heating-up of the pan located on the heating zone.
Of course the pan has to be adapted:
• All ferromagnetic pans are recommended (please verify it thanks a little magnet): cast iron and
steel pans, enamelled pans, stainless-steel pans with ferromagnetic bottoms...
•
Are excluded: cupper, pure stainless-steel, aluminium, glass, wood, ceramic, stoneware,...
The induction heating zone adapts automatically the size of the pan. With a too small diameter the
pan doesn't work. This diameter is varying in function of the heating zone diameter.
If the pan is not adapted to the induction hob the display will show [ U ].
Sensitive touch
Your ceramic hob is equipped with electronic controls with sensitive touch keys. When your finger
presses the key, the corresponding command is activated. This activation is validated by a control
light, a letter or a number in the display and/or a "beep" sound.
In the case of a general use press only one key at the same time.
Starting-up
You must first switching on the hob, then the heating zone:
•
Start-up/ switch off the hob :

To start
Touch the key
•
Start-up/ switch off a heating zone :
Action
Zone selection
Increase power
Decrease power
Stop
If no action is made within 20 second the electronics returns in waiting position.
Pan detection
The pan detection ensures a perfect safety. The induction doesn't work: :
• If there is no pan on the heating zone or if this pan is not adapted to the induction. In this case
it is impossible to increase the power and the display shows [ U ]. This symbol disappears
when a pan is put on the heating zone.
• If the pan is removed from the heating zone the operation is stopped. The display shows [ U ].
The symbol [ U ] disappears when the pan is put back to the heating zone. The cooking
continues with the power level set before.
After use, switch the heat element off: don't let the pan detection [ U ] active.
