3 - USE OF INDUCTION HOB
The ceramic hob is fitted with induction cooking zones.
These zones, shown by painted disks on the ceramic surface, are controlled by separate
knobs positioned on the control panel.
INDUCTION COOKING SYSTEM
When your induction hob is switched on and a cooking zone has been selected, the
electronic circuits produce induced currents that instantaneously heat the bottom of the
pan which then transfers this heat to the food. Cooking takes place with hardly any ener-
gy loss between the induction hob and the food.
Your induction hob operates only if a correct pan with the right features is placed on a
cooking zone. Please refer to COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION COOKING.
If the pan detection symbol appears on the display, your pan is not suitable and your
induction hob will not operate
After 10 minutes without detecting any pan, the cooking zone switches Off automatically
and can only be switched On after the control knob has been returned into 0 (Off) set-
ting.
= Cooking zone Off (not activated)
= Cooking zone On (activated but not operating).
If all the zones are in zero setting, the display switches off automatically
(cooking zones Off) after about 15 seconds.
