Start-up and use

! The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of grease

on the glass. Before using the appliance, we recommend

you remove these with a special non-abrasive cleaning

product. During the first few hours of use there may be a

smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly.

! A few seconds after the hob is connected to the electricity

supply, a buzzer will sound. The hob may now be switched

on.

! The software running the hob adjusts the maximum power

absorbed by all cooking zones as necessary, so that the

maximum total power output may be utilised in a flexible

and independent manner. Two operating examples are

illustrated in the pictures below.

In picture A, the front left-hand cooking zone is operating at

maximum power (level 9) and, as a result, the rear left-

hand cooking zone cannot be set any higher than level 7;

the corresponding Max indicator light is illuminated. As

soon as the power of the front cooking zone has

decreased, the corresponding Max indicator light will

switch off and the rear cooking zone may be set to a higher

power level.

Picture B illustrates a similar example, but with cooking

zones positioned diagonally. If the front left-hand cooking

zone is set to maximum (level 9), the rear right-hand

cooking zone cannot be set any higher than level 4.

Information relating to the amount of energy consumed is

provided by the indicator lights

which are illuminated

when each corresponding plate has reached its maximum

power output. When all the indicator lights corresponding

to the active hotplates are illuminated, if you wish to

increase the power level of one of the hotplates you will

have to reduce the power level of another of the active

hotplates first.

Types of noise during normal hob operation:

•

Buzz:Buzz:

Buzz: due to the vibration of the metallic parts that

make up the induction element and the pot; it is

generated by the electromagnetic field required for

heating and increases as the power of the induction

element increases.

•

Soft whistle:Soft whistle:

Soft whistle: heard when the pot placed on the

heating zone is empty; the noise disappears once food

or water is placed into the pot.

•

Crackle:Crackle:

Crackle: produced by the vibration of materials on

the bottom of the pot due to the flow of parasitic currents

caused by electromagnetic fields (induction); can be

more or less intense depending on the material making

up the bottom of the pot, and decreases as the pot

dimensions increase.

•

Loud whistle:Loud whistle:

Loud whistle: heard when two induction elements of

the same group function simultaneously at maximum

power and/or when the booster function is set on the

larger element while the other is auto-adjusted. Noise is

reduced by decreasing the power level of the auto-

adjusted induction element; pot bottom layers made of

different kinds of materials are among the main causes

of this noise.

•

Fan noise:Fan noise:

Fan noise: a fan is necessary to ensure the hob

functions correctly and to safeguard the electronic unit

from possible overheating. The fan functions at

maximum power when the large induction element is at

maximum power or when the booster function is on; in all

other cases, it works at average power depending on

the temperature detected. Furthermore, the fan may

continue to work even after switching the hob off, if the

temperature detected is high.

The types of noise listed above are due to induction

technology and are not necessarily operational faults.

! If the

- or

+ button is pressed for an extended period

of time, the display scrolls quickly though the power levels

and timer minutes.

Switching on the hob

To switch the hob on, press and hold the button for

approximately one second.

Switching on the cooking zones

Each cooking zone is controlled using a selector button

and a power adjustment device consisting of a

double

- and

+ button.

• To begin operating a cooking zone, press the

corresponding control button and set the desired power

level (between 0 and 9) using the buttons

- and

Switching off the cooking zones

To switch off a cooking zone, select it using the

corresponding selector button

and:

• Press the

- button: the power of the cooking zone will

progressively decrease until it is switched off.

Only available in certain models.
