Simmering
The simmering function automatically sets the selected cooking zone to a minimum boiling temperature.
After positioning the pot, switch on the hob and select the chosen cooking zone. Press the key: “A”
appears on the display and the indicator light turns on. To deactivate the function, simply press OFF on the
slide touchscreen.
Melting
This function maintains a permanently low temperature in the cooking zone. After positioning the
pot/accessory on the chosen cooking zone, switch on the hob and select the cooking zone. Press the
key: “A” appears on the display and the indicator light turns on. To deactivate the function, simply press
OFF on the slide touchscreen.
Sensor
The SENSOR function automatically selects the ideal power level to bring water to the boil and signals
boiling point.
After positioning the pot of water, switch on the hob and select the desired cooking zone. Press the
key: “A” appears on the display and the indicator light turns on. During heating, an animation is displayed
in the space next to the cooking zone.
To ensure correct operation of the SENSOR function, we recommend that you:
- use water only (at room temperature);
- do not add salt, other ingredients or condiments
until the water reaches boiling point;
- do not change the power setting of the cooking
zone or remove or move the pot;
- do not use pressure cookers;
- fill the pot to at least 1/3 full (min. 1 litre) and
never to the brim (see table on the right).
For optimum results, observe the following advice:
- do not put the lid on the pot that is being used with the SENSOR function;
- do not activate the SENSOR function if the zone is already hot (letter “H” on the display).
When the water comes to the boil, the hob emits an acoustic signal. This signal is sounded three times at
regular intervals. After the second signal, a minute minder is automatically activated to keep track of
boiling time. After the third signal, the hob automatically selects a lower power setting to keep the water
simmering. From this moment on, you can add any ingredients you like, set the timer and change the
power setting. Changing the power setting or selecting the “hold” function overrides the SENSOR
function.
The function is deactivated when the “hold” function is selected.
- The hob manages the SENSOR function and booster levels autonomously, therefore, in some cases, it
may not be possible to activate the booster with the SENSOR function already in use
- The quality of the cookware may affect the performance of the SENSOR function.
