Instructions for the user 5.3.1 Pan detection Every cooking zone has a cookware detector that only starts the cooking if there is a well positioned container with the suitable characteristics present on the hotplate. If the container is not well positioned or is not made of the correct material and still tries to activate the hotplate, after a few seconds from the hotplatesactivation,the' symbol will appear on the display. 5.3.
Instructions for the user 5.3.5 Circuit board thermal protection The appliance is provided with a device that constantly measures the temperature of the electronic circuit board. If the temperature surpasses certain values, the device will activate certain functions to lower the temperature and allow the glass ceramic hob to continue to work correctly.
Instructions for the user Operation Activating temperature Operating power reduced from Power to 9 250° C Reduction of the power of a point 280° C Switching off the cooking zone 300° C Return of the power to the set value 250° C Every intervention of this type will be identified on the cooking hob with a flashing light on the power display. 5.3.7 Warming function The purpose of the keep warm function is to regulate the temperature of the bottom of the cookware to approximately 70 .
Instructions for the user You can use the rack for grilling, cooking au gratin or as a barbeque. In the tray under the resistance you can put: • water to catch the fat and any grease dripping from the cooking (do not put more than a litre and a half of water into the tray), • a layer of lava rock that keeps in the heat for longer and therefore improves the cooking times and quality. In both cases, do not exceed the edge of the tray.
Instructions for the user 5.5 Teppan yaki hob This hob enables food to be cooked or heated directly on the plate, with or without oil. This kind of cooking uses temperatures that never exceed the smoke points of the food (i.e. the temperatures at which food starts to burn) and very rapid cooking times. The appliance has two cooking zones of equal power levels and diameters. They are positioned roughly at the front half and the rear half of the plate.
Instructions for the user 5.6.1 Heating Setting the knob to a higher value than the original value starts the heating phase. While a cooking zone is heating the display alternates between the adjacent symbols and darkness (roughly every second). 5.6.2 Cooling Regolando la manopola ad un valore minore di quello di partenza si avvierà la fase di raffreddamento.
Instructions for the user 5.6.5 Booster function The induction hob has a booster function for rapidly reaching temperatures. This is recommended for saucepans and frying pans containing water. This booster temporarily boosts the power thus exceeding also the nominal output of the zone. The booster is activated by turning the knob clockwise to position P. The symbol appears on the relevant cooking zone display when the booster is on. The booster remains active for up to 10 minutes and then switches off.
Instructions for the user 5.7 Using fat and oil When using fat and oil in cooking, it is very important to cook at the right temperatures. Fat and oil will keep their properties intact when used at the correct temperature. If the temperature is too high, fat and oil begin to smoke (smoke point) and then burn. Fat - oil Butter Lard Beef fat Olive oil Sunflower oil Peanut oil 5.
Instructions for the user 5.8.1 Teppan yaki thermal protection Every cooking zone has a device that constantly measures the temperature. If the temperature surpasses certain values, the device will activate certain functions to lower the temperature and allow the teppan yaki plate to continue to work correctly.
Instructions for the user 5.9 Precautions when using the teppan yaki plate The hob is not designed for cooking foodstuffs in pans or other cookware. Despite the steel cooking surface being very tough and smooth, traces of wear may appear over time and with normal use. This will not however affect the performance of the plate. Slight yellowing of the steel surface is entirely normal. Do not use knives to cut food on the cooking surface to avoid scratching it. Do not use sharp cutlery to turn the food.
