RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE
Recommendations for correct use in order to reduce the impact on the environment: When cooking begins, the device should be turned on at minimum speed, and left on for a few minutes even after cooking is complete. Increase the speed only if there is a large quantity of fumes and steam, using the Booster function only in extreme cases. To keep the odour reduction system running efficiently, replace the carbon filter/s when necessary. To ensure the high performance of the grease filter, clean it when necessary. To improve efficiency and minimise noise, use the maximum duct diameter indicated in this manual.

USE

USING THE HOB
The induction cooking system is based on the physical phenomenon of magnetic induction.

The main characteristic of this system is the direct transfer of energy from the generator to the pot.

  • Benefits: When compared to electric hobs, your induction
  • hob is : Safer: lower temperature on the glass surface.
  • Faster: shorter food heating times. More accurate: the hob immediately reacts to your commands. More efficient: 90% of the absorbed energy is transformed into heat.
    Moreover, once the pot is removed from the hob, heat transmission is immediately interrupted, avoiding unnecessary heat loss.

USE OF COOKWARE

Cookware

Only use pots bearing this symbol.

Important: to avoid permanent damage to the hob surface, do not use:

  • cookware with a base that is not perfectly flat;

  • metal cookware with an enamelled base;

  • cookware with a rough base, to avoid scratching the hob surface;

  • never place hot pots and pans on the surface of the hob’s control panel.

  • Not all induction pots work efficiently due to the base only partially consisting of ferromagnetic material! When purchasing pots or pans ensure that:

  • the base is made entirely from ferromagnetic material. If this is not the case, heat transmission and uniformity will be less efficient, and the temperatures of the pot/pan surface may not be suitable for cooking.

  • The base does not contain aluminium: the cookware does not heat and may not be recognised by the inductors.

  • Bases that are not flat or have rough surfaces.

  • These lower the contact surface area between the inductor and the cookware, reducing efficiency and harming the cooking experience.

  • Pre-existing cookware
    You can check if the pot material is magnetic simply by using a magnet. Pots are not suitable if they are not magnetically detectable. The indications from the previous paragraph also apply here.

  • Recommended pot bottom diameters
    IMPORTANT: if the pots are not of the correct size, the cooking zones will not switch on. To see the minimum pot diameters for each zone, consult the illustrated section of this manual.

Energy saving
Use pots and pans with a bottom diameter equal to that of the cooking zone; Use only pots and pans with flat bottoms;

  • Where possible, keep the lid on pots during cooking; Cook vegetables, potatoes, etc. with a minimal amount of water to reduce the cooking time; Use the pressure cooker, as it further reduces energy consumption and the cooking time; Place the pot in the centre of the cooking zone drawn on the hob.

USING THE EXTRACTOR FAN

The extraction system can be used in the duct-out version with external evacuation, or in the recirculating version with filtering and internal recirculation.
Consult the websites www.elica.com and www.shop.elica.com to view the full range of available kits for the various installations in both the recirculating and duct-out versions.

EDuct-Out Version:
Vapours are exhausted outside via a series of pipes (to be purchased separately). Connect the product to wall- mounted exhaust pipes and holes with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connecting flange). For more information on the pipes and their dimensions see the page relating to accessories in the installation manual – Duct-Out version. The use of pipes and outlet holes in the wall with a smaller diameter will reduce the extraction performance and drastically increase the noise level. All responsibility in this regard is therefore denied.

For maximum extraction efficiency:

  • We recommend a maximum pipe route length of 7 linear metres.
  • We recommend using no more than two 90 bends along the entire 7 linear metres
  • Avoid drastic changes in the ducting diameter, seeking to maintain a diameter of 0 150 mm (or a rectangular section of 222 x 89 mm).

Recirculating Version:
The extracted air will be filtered in special grease filters and odour filters before being sent back into the room. The product is supplied with all parts necessary for standard installation, with the air outlet positioned in the front part of the plinth. The product is equipped with a set of odour filters. For more information, see the page relating to accessories for the recirculating version (in the illustrated part of this manual).

OPERATION

CONTROL PANEL

THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING
All functions of this hob are designed to comply with the
most stringent safety regulations. For this reason:

  • Some functions will not be activated or will be automatically deactivated, in the absence of pots on the burners or when they are poorly positioned.
  • In other cases, the activated functions will be automatically deactivated after a few seconds if the specific function requires a further setting that has not been selected (e.g.:

“Turning the hob on” without “Selecting the cooking zone” and the “Operating temperature”, or the “Lock Function” or the “Timer” function).

  • Wait for the display to turn off before approaching the cooking zone.
  • Please note! In the case (for example) of prolonged use, the cooking zone may not immediately shut down because it is in the cooling phase; the symbol will appear on the cooking zone display to indicate that this phase is underway. Wait for the display to turn off before approaching the cooking zone.

When cleaned in the dishwasher, the metal grease filter may discolour, but its filtering characteristics remain unchanged.
  • XB Ceramic activated carbon filter maintenance (For Recirculating Version only): Traps unpleasant odours generated by cooking. The product comes with a set of odour filters.
  • The saturation of the odour filters can occur after somewhat prolonged use depending on the type of cooking and how regularly the grease filter is cleaned. The odour filters can be thermally regenerated every 2/3 months in an oven pre-heated to 200°C for 45 minutes. The correct regeneration of the filter ensures that it can constantly filter efficiently for 5 years.
  • Please note! Do not place the filters on the floor of the oven but rather in a tray, positioned at an intermediate heiaht.
