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.

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.

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.

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.
Switching on the hob

Switching on the cooking zones
To begin using a cooking zone, set the desired power level

Booster function*
The booster function for some of the cooking zones may
be used to shorten heating-up times. It may be activated
by pressing the
above the button will illuminate. This function boosts the
power to 2000 W or 3000 W, depending on the size of the
corresponding cooking zone.
It stops automatically after 4 minutes. While the booster for
one of the cooking zones is active, the corresponding front
or rear cooking zone will operate at a reduced power level
(e.g. if the booster for the rear left-hand hotplate has been
activated, the power level of the front left-hand hotplate will
be reduced). For further information, please refer to the
Technical description of the models.
Switching off the cooking zones
