The indicators appear when a cooking zone is hot. They show the level of the residual

heat for the cooking zones you are currently using:
– continue cooking,
– keep warm,
– residual heat. The indicator may also appear: · for the neighbouring cooking zones even if

6.12 Power management
If multiple zones are active and the consumed power exceeds the limitation of the power supply, this function divides the available power between all cooking zones (connected to the same phase). The hob controls heat settings to protect the fuses of the house installation.
· If the hob reaches the limit of maximum available power (refer to the rating plate), the power of the cooking zones will be automatically reduced.
· The heat setting of the cooking zone selected last is always prioritised. The remaining power will be divided between the previously activated cooking zones in reverse order of selection.

· The heat setting display of the reduced zones changes between the initially selected heat setting and the reduced heat setting.
· Wait until the display stops flashing or reduce the heat setting of the cooking zone selected last. The cooking zones will continue operating with the reduced heat setting. Change the heat settings of the cooking zones manually, if necessary.
6.13 Hob²Hood
It is an advanced automatic function which connects the hob to a special hood. Both the hob and the hood have an infrared signal communicator. Speed of the fan is defined automatically on basis of mode setting and temperature of the hottest cookware on the hob. You can also operate the fan from the hob manually.

For most of the hoods the remote system is originally deactivated. Activate it before you use the function. For more information refer to hood user manual.
Operating the function automatically To operate the function automatically set the automatic mode to H1 ­ H6. The hob is originally set to H5. The hood reacts whenever you operate the hob. The hob recognizes temperature of the cookware automatically and adjusts the speed of the fan.

The light on the hood deactivates 2 minutes after deactivating the hob.

When you finish cooking and deactivate the hob, the hood fan may still operate for a certain period of time. After that time the system deactivates the fan automatically and prevents you from accidental activation of the fan for the next 30 seconds.
7. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
7.1 Cookware
For induction cooking zones a strong electro-magnetic field creates the heat in the cookware very quickly.

Use the induction cooking zones with suitable cookware.
· To prevent overheating and improve the performance of the zones, the cookware must be as thick and flat as possible.
· Ensure cookware bases are clean and dry before placing on the hob surface.
· Always be careful no to slide or rub the cookware on the edges and corners of the glass as it may chip or damage the glass surface.
Cookware material

34 ENGLISH

· correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel, stainless steel, multi-layer bottom (with a correct marking from a manufacturer).
· not correct: aluminium, copper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is suitable for an induction hob if:
· water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting.
· a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.
Cookware dimensions
· Induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension of the bottom of the cookware automatically. Refer to “Technical data” > “Cooking zones specification” for correct cookware dimensions. Place the cookware in the centre of the selected cooking zone.
· The efficiency of a cooking zone is related to the diameter of the cookware. For optimal heat transfer use cookware with bottom diameter similar to the size of the cooking zone (i.e. the maximum cookware diameter value in “Technical data” > “Cooking zones specification”). ­ Cookware with a diameter smaller than the size of a given cooking zone receives only part of the power generated by the cooking zone which results in slower heating. ­ For both safety reasons and optimal cooking results, do not use cookware larger than indicated in “Cooking zones specification”. Avoid keeping cookware close to the control panel during the cooking session. This might impact the functioning of the control panel or accidentally activate hob functions.

Refer to “Technical data”.
7.2 Noises during operation
The noises are normal and do not indicate any malfunction. Cookware noises may vary depending on the cookware material and the power level.
Cookware-related noises: · cracking noise: cookware is made of
different materials (a sandwich construction). · whistling sound: you use a cooking zone with a high power level and the cookware is made of different materials (a sandwich construction). · humming: you use a high power level. Hob-related noises: · clicking: electric switching occurs. · hissing, buzzing: the fan operates. · rhythmic sound: cookware is detected.
7.3 Simplified cooking guide
The correlation between the heat setting of a zone and its consumption of power is not linear. When you increase the heat setting, it is not proportional to the increase of the consumption of power. It means that a cooking zone with the medium heat setting uses less than a half of its power.
The data in the table is for guidance only.

7.4 Hints and Tips for Hob²Hood
When you operate the hob with the function:
· Protect the hood panel from direct sunlight.
· Do not spot halogen light on the hood panel.
· Do not cover the hob control panel. · Do not interrupt the signal between the
hob and the hood (e.g. with the hand, a cookware handle or a tall pot). See the picture. The hood pictured below is for illustration purpose only.

36 ENGLISH

Other remotely controlled appliances may block the signal. Do not use any such appliances near to the hob while Hob²Hood is on.
Cooker hoods with the Hob²Hood function To find the full range of cooker hoods which work with this function refer to our consumer website. The Electrolux cooker hoods that

work with this function must have the symbol .

8. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
8.1 General information
· Clean the hob after each use. · Always use cookware with a clean base. · Scratches or dark stains on the surface
have no effect on how the hob operates. · Use a special cleaning agent suitable for
the surface of the hob. · Always use a scraper recommended for
hobs with a glass surface. Use the scraper only as an additional tool for cleaning the glass after the standard cleaning procedure.
WARNING!
Do not use knives or any other sharp, metal tools to clean the glass surface.

8.2 Cleaning the hob
· Remove immediately: melted plastic, plastic foil, salt, sugar and food with sugar, otherwise, the dirt can cause damage to the hob. Take care to avoid burns. Use a special hob scraper on the glass surface at an acute angle and move the blade on the surface.
· Remove when the hob is sufficiently cool: limescale rings, water rings, fat stains, shiny metallic discoloration. Clean the hob with a moist cloth and a nonabrasive detergent. After cleaning, wipe the hob dry with a soft cloth.
· Remove shiny metallic discoloration: use a solution of water with vinegar and clean the glass surface with a cloth.
