Ventilation
The cooling system is fully automatic. The cooling fan starts with a low speed when the calories brought out by the electronic system reach a certain level. The ventilation starts his high speed when the hob is intensively used. The cooling fan reduces his speed and stops automatically when the electronic circuit is cooled enough.

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:
    Action| Control panel| Display
    ---|---|---
    To start
    Touch the key| Press key [ 0/I ] Press key [ 0/I ]| [ 0 ] Nothing or [ H ]
  • Start-up/ switch off a heating zone:
    ** Action| Control panel| Display**
    ---|---|---
    Zone selection| Press selection key from the zone| [ 0 ]
    Increase power| Press key [ + ]| [ 1 ] to [ 9 ]
    Decrease power| Press key [ – ]| [ 9 ] to [ 1 ]
    Stop| Press key [ – ]| [ 0 ] or [ H ]

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 setted before.
    After use, switch the heat element off: don’t let the pan detection [ U ] active.

Residual heat indication
After the switch off of a heating zone or the complete stop of the hob, the heating zones are still hot and indicates [ H ] on the display. The symbol [ H ] disappears when the heating zones may be touched without danger. As far as the residual heat indicators are on light, don’t touch the heating zones and don’t put any heat sensitive object on them. There are risks of burn and fire.

Booster function
The booster function [ P ] grants a boost of power to the selected heating zone. If this function is activated the heating zones works during 5 minutes with an ultra high power. The booster is foreseen for example to heat up rapidly big quantities of water, like nuddles cooking.

COOKING ADVICES

Pan quality

Adapted materials: steel, enamelled steel, cast iron, ferromagnetic stainless-steel, aluminium with ferromagnetic bottom.
Not adapted materials: aluminium and stainless-steel without ferromagnetic bottom, cupper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.

The manufacturers specify if their products are compatible induction.

To check if pans are compatibles:
Put a littler water in a pan placed on an induction heating zone set at level [ 9 ].This water must heat in a few seconds.
A magnet stuck on the bottom of the pan.
Some pans can make noise when they are placed on an induction cooking zone. This noise doesn’t mean any failure on the appliance and doesn’t influence the cooking operating.
The pans must be certified by the manufacturer as compatible with induction hobs. However, it is possible that certain pans, even though declared compatible, may have characteristics which are not adapted to be used with induction hobs. We recommend to verify, when purchasing the pans, that they respect at least the following conditions:

If the bottom of the pan (Ød) is significantly smaller than the diemeter of the body (ØD) the performance will not be good, and the pan might not be identified by the plate

Pan dimension
The cooking zones are, until a certain limit, automatically adapted to the diameter of the pan. However the bottom of this pan must have a minimum of diameter according to the corresponding cooking zone. To obtain the best efficiency of your hob, please place the pan well in the centre of the cooking zone.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The installation comes under the exclusive responsibility of specialists. The installer is held to respect the legislation and the standards enforce in his home country.

How to stick the gasket:
The gasket supplied with the hob avoids all infiltration of liquids in the cabinet. His installation has to be done carefully, in conformity of the following drawing.

Stick the gasket (2) two millimeters from the external edge of the glass, after removing the protection sheet (3).

Fitting – installing:

  • The cut out sizes are:
    Reference| Cut-size
    ---|---
    EDI24| 280 x 490 mm
  • Ensure that there is a distance of 50 mm between the hob and the wall or sides.
  • The hobs are classified as “Y” class for heat protection. Ideally the hob should be installed with plenty of space on either side. There may be a wall at the rear and tall units or a wall at one side. On the other side, however, no unit or divider must stand higher than the hob.
  • The piece of furniture or the support in which the hob is to be fitted, as well as the edges of furniture, the laminate coatings and the glue used to fix them, must be able to resist temperatures of up to 100 °C.
  • The mural rods of edge must be heat-resisting.
  • Not to install the hob to the top of a not ventilated oven or a dishwasher.
  • To guarantee under the bottom of the hob casing a space of 20 mm to ensure a good air circulation of the electronic device.
  • If a drawer is placed under the work, avoid to put into this drawer flammable objects (for example: sprays) or not heat-resistant objects.
  • Materials which are often used to make worktops expand on contact with water. To protect the cut out edge, apply a coat of varnish or special sealant. Particular care must be given to applying the adhesive joint supplied with the hob to prevent any leakage into the supporting furniture. This gasket guaranties a correct seal when used in conjunction with smooth work top surfaces.
  • The safety gap between the hob and the cooker hood placed above must respect the indications of the hood manufacturer. In case of absence of instructions respect a distance minimum of 500 mm.
  • The connection cord should be subjected, after building, with no mechanical constraint, such for example of the fact of the drawer.
