When finished, turn off the cooking
zone by using the touch controls. Otherwise
an undesired operation could occur if a pan
is accidentally placed on the cooking zone
during the next three minutes. Avoid possi-
ble accidents!
Blocking cooktop sensors
BLOCK FUNCTION
With the Block Function, you can block the other
sensors, except for the on/off sensor (1), in
order to avoid undesired operations. This func-
tion is useful as a childproof safety.
To activate this function, touch sensor (8)
for at least one second. Once you have done so,
the pilot (19) turns on indicating that the control
panel is blocked. To deactivate the function,
simply touch sensor (8) again.
If the on/off sensor (1) is used to turn off the
appliance while the block function is activated, it
won't be possible to turn the cooktop on again
until it unblocks.
Stop Function
This function puts the cooking process on
pause. The timer will also be paused if it is acti-
vated.
Activating the Stop function
Touch the Stop sensor (17) for one
second. The pilot (20) lights up and the power
indicators will show the symbol to indicate
cooking has been paused.
Deactivating the Stop function
Touch Stop sensor (17) again. The pilot
(20) turns off and cooking resumes under the
same power and timer settings that were esta-
blished before the pause.
Heat Sustainment Function
This function makes it possible to keep warm
food that is in the pan placed on the cooking
area.
This function is independently available for each
one of the plates.
To activate it, select the plate. The decimal point
will light up. Then push sensor (15). The
symbol "A" will appear in the indicator and the
corresponding pilot (11) will turn on.
To disconnect this function, all you have to do is
modify the power of the plate or directly turn it
off.
Power Function
This function supplies "extra" power to the plate,
above the nominal value. Said power depends
on the size of the plate, with the possibility of
reaching the maximum value permitted by the
generator.
1 Select the desired plate with the correspon-
ding sensor (3). The decimal point will light
up.
2 On the cursor Slider, push directly on position
(7). The power level indicator will show
the symbol P, and the plate will start to supply
extra power.
The Power function has a maximum duration as
specified in table 1. After this time, the power
level will automatically adjust to 9.
Boil Control Function
This innovative function is of an enormous help
if you want to cook pasta, rice, eggs, or boil any
kind of food. This function allows you to perform
this cooking method "almost" automatically.
This function is available only in the plates
where this symbol appears .
Pot requirements
For properly using boil control, the pot must
have the following characteristics:
- Bottom size as close as possible to the diame-
ter of the plate.
- NO COVER.
- Filled more than halfway of its capacity with
room temperature water (never use lukewarm or
hot water).
Not fulfilling these requirements will result in
inadequate control of boiling.
