USE
• Never use pans with a misshapen base. A hollow or rounded base can interfere with
the operation of the overheating protection, so that the appliance becomes too hot.
This may lead to the glass top cracking and the pan base melting.
• Damage arising from the use of unsuitable pans or from boiling dry is excluded from the
guarantee.
Minimum pan diameter
• The diameter of the bottom of the pan must be at least 14 cm.
• You will achieve the best results by using a pan with the same diameter as the zone.
If a pan is too small the zone will not work.
Pressure cookers
• Induction cooking is very suitable for cooking in pressure cookers. The cooking zone reacts
very quickly, and so the pressure cooker is quickly up to pressure. As soon as you switch
a cooking zone off, the cooking process stops immediately.
Power level setting
The cooking zones have 9 levels. Beside it there is a level 'boost' (B). Set the power level by
touching the slider. At the first touch, the level is set according to the part of the slider that you
touch. By sliding along the slider, the power level setting is changed. By sliding to the right, the
level increasing, while sliding to the left decreases the level. When you move your finger away
from the slider, the cooking field starts to operate at the level set.
Maximum power
During cooking the maximum available power of each cooking zone depends on how
much cooking is needed at the same time:
