For best results and energy saving, only use pans suitable for electric cooking:
- The bottom of the pan must be very thick and perfectly flat; before placing
on the cooktop, make sure that the pan, as well as the cooktop itself, is
perfectly clean and dry.
- To avoid scratching of the cooktop, never use cast-iron pans or pans with a
rough bottom.
- To avoid wasting energy, make sure that the diameter of the pan bottom is
the same as that of the circle marked on the cooktop.
6.13 Holding function "A"
Some cooktop models feature a new "standby" function indicated by the appearance of the letter "A" on
the display (which normally indicates the zone power level).
This function allows a lower temperature to be obtained on the ceramic cooktop surface in the selected
zone, enabling foods that have already been cooked (e.g. soups, sliced meats, fish, sauces, etc.) to be
kept at the required temperature.
6.13.1Activating the holding function "A"
After turning on the zone with the display showing 0, press the key. The display will show the letter
"A", indicating that this holding function has been activated. Pressing the key again switches to power
level 9, as is the case on cooktops with normal zones. Returning to level 0 and pressing the key again
does not reactivate the "A" function; to activate it, the zone must be turned off and back on gain.
NOTE: The holding function must not be activated on a cooktop that is still "hot" since this could trip one
of the overheating safety mechanisms with which the electronic cooktop control is equipped.
