RECOGNITION OF COOKWARE
Containers with a diameter of less than 12 cm will not be recognised. The LED pilot light will light up during
operation or the digital display shows the chosen power setting (1-9). No power setting will be shown if the
appliance is operated without cookware or if the container was not recognised or if it is made from unsuita-
ble material. The pilot light will flash briefly or the display will show a message stating that no cookware was
recognised. See error messages.
Monitoring of the heating zone
The heating zone is monitored by a temperature sensor placed beneath the glass ceramic surface (the middle
of the hotplate). Overheated cookware (hot oil, empty pans) are recognised and the current supply is inter-
rupted. The cooker renews the current supply to the cookware only when the temperature falls to normal
values.
Warning! Only the hob is protected against overheating, not the cookware. An overheated container is
only recognised when the glass ceramic surface reaches a temperature during which the appliance is switched
off (260 oC).
Causes of noise
The cooling ventilators can be heard, they switch off and on when the appliance is being operated.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions for use contain basic information, which must be taken into consideration during installa-
tion, use and maintenance. The installer and user must read the instructions for use completely before insta-
lling the appliance and putting it into use and these instructions must be stored near the hob so that they are
available for viewing at any time.
Use
The induction hob is intended for cooking food. It may used to boil, heat, flambé, grill, etc. Warning: only
containers made from induction material may be used on the induction hob. Only materials we recommend
and which are suitable for professional use may be used for making the cookware. The whole bottom of the
container must be magnetic. If in doubt try testing the cookware with a magnet.
