Advantages of induction cooking
The appliance is equipped with an induction generator for each cooking zone. Each generator located under the glass ceramic cooking surface creates an electromagnetic field that induces a thermal current in the base of the pan. This means the heat is no longer transmitted from the hob to the pan but created directly inside the pan by the inductive current.

• Energy saving thanks to the direct transmission of energy to the pan (suitable magnetizable cookware is required) compared to traditional electric cooking.
• Improved safety as the energy is only transmitted to the pan placed on the hob.
• A high level of energy is transmitted from the induction cooking zone to the base of the pan.
• Rapid heating speed.
• Reduced danger of burns as the cooking surface is only heated under the base of the pan; foods that overflow do not stick.

Power control
The hob is fitted with a power control module that optimizes/limits consumption. If the overall set power level exceeds the maximum limit permitted, the electronic circuit board will

USE

Preliminary operations

WARNING: See General safety instructions.

• Remove any protective film from the outside or inside of the appliance, including any accessories (if present).
• Remove any labels (apart from the technical data plate).

Cookware suitable for use in induction cooking
Cookware used on the induction cooking surface must be made of metal, with magnetic properties and a sufficiently large base.

Suitable cookware:

• Enameled steel cookware with thick bases.
• Cast iron cookware with an enameled base.
• Cookware in multilayer stainless steel, ferritic stainless steel, and aluminum with a special base.

Unsuitable cookware:
Copper, stainless steel, aluminum, fireproof glass, wood, ceramic and terracotta cookware.

Advice on energy-saving
To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If you do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the pan, place it in a cooking zone, and start the hot plate. If the symbol appears on the display, it means the pan is not suitable.

Advice on energy-saving
The diameter of the base of the pan must correspond to the diameter of the cooking zone.

• When buying a pot, check whether the diameter indicated is that of the base or the top, as the top is almost always larger than the base.
• The base of the cookware must be thick and completely flat. In addition, the hob should be clean and dry as well.
• When preparing dishes with long cooking times, you can save time and energy by using a pressure cooker, which also makes it possible to preserve the vitamins in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker contains enough liquid as, if there is not enough and it overheats, this may cause damage to both the pressure cooker and the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover the pans with a suitable lid.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of food to be cooked. A large, half-empty saucepan leads to a waste of energy.
• Do not use cast-iron cookware or cookware with a rough base.

If hob and oven are being used at the same time, under certain conditions the maximum power limit that can be used by your electrical system might be exceeded.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the glass ceramic hob
WARNING: See General safety instructions.

Cleaning the surfaces
To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.

Ordinary daily cleaning
Always and only use specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.

In case of stubborn dirt, clean when cold using a damp kitchen sponge and neutral detergent; then dry with a microfibre cloth.

Weekly cleaning
Clean and maintain the hob once a week using an ordinary glass ceramic cleaning product. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The silicon in these products creates a protective, water-repellent membrane which also resists dirt. All marks stay on the membrane and can therefore be removed easily. After cleaning, dry the surface with a clean cloth. Make sure that there is no detergent left on the cooking surface as it might undergo an aggressive reaction when heated up and could modify the structure of the cooking surface.

Food stains or residues
Light coloured marks from pans with aluminium bases can be easily cleaned off with a cloth moistened in vinegar. Remove any burnt-on residues after cooking; then rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Dirt, which may have fallen on the hob while cleaning lettuce or potatoes, can scratch the hob when moving pans. Consequently, remove any dirt from the cooking surface immediately. Changes in colour do not affect the operation and stability of the glass. These are not alterations to the material of the hob but just residues which have not been removed and have then carbonised. Shiny surfaces can form due to the bases of pans, especially aluminium ones, rubbing on the surface, and due to the use of unsuitable detergents. They are difficult to remove using conventional cleaning products. It may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process several times. Use of corrosive detergents or rubbing of pan bases can wear away the decoration on the hob over time and contribute to the formation of stains.

• We recommend the use of cleaning products distributed by the manufacturer.
• After cleaning, dry the appliance thoroughly to prevent any water or detergent from interfering with its operation or creating unsightly marks.

What to do if…

The hob does not work:

• Make sure that the hob is connected and that the main switch is turned on.
• Make sure that there is no power failure.
