Be careful with enamelled sheet-steel pans! The enamel may chip (the enamel comes
loose from the steel), if you switch the hob on at a high level when the pan is (too) dry;
the base of the pan may warp - due, for example, to overheating or to the use of too
high a power level.
•
Never use pans with a misshapen base. A hollow or rounded base can interfere with
the operation of the overheating protection, so that the appliance becomes too hot.
This may lead to the glass top cracking and the pan base melting. Damage arising
from the use of unsuitable pans or from boiling dry is excluded from the guarantee.
Minimum pan diameter
•
The diameter of the bottom of the pan must be at least 12 cm (11 cm for the ø 16 cm
cooking zone). You will achieve the best results by using a pan with the same diameter as
the zone. If a pan is too small, the zone will not work.
•
The length of a fish-pan (oval pan), used on the Bridge zones, must be at least 20 cm.
Pressure cookers
•
Induction cooking is very suitable for cooking in pressure cookers. The cooking zone reacts
very quickly, and so the pressure cooker is quickly up to pressure. As soon as you switch
a cooking zone off, the cooking process stops immediately.
Cooking power levels
The cooking zones have 9 levels, a keep warm level and a boost level (depending on the zone).
•
Tap the plus (+) or minus (-) key of a cooking zone.
ൗG
Tapping the plus (+) key starts the cooking at level ‘1’.
ൗG
Tapping the minus (-) key starts the cooking at level ‘9’.
ൗG
Tapping the minus (-) key and afterwards the plus (+) key starts the
cooking at
Boost level.
•
Use the plus (+) or the minus (-) key to choose the desired power level.
ൗG
The cooking zone starts at the selected power level.
Keep-warm level
The keep-warm level is intended for keeping food warm that is already cooked.
•
Touch the minus (-) or plus (+) key to select level 1
•
Touch the minus (-) key to select the stay warm function. Symbol ‘u’ will appear in the
display.
Boost function
•
You can use the ‘boost’ function to cook at the highest power level during a short period of
time (max.10 minutes). After the maximum boost time the power will be reduced to setting 9.
•
Boost function is not available in Bridge zones linked mode!
