When compared to other methods of cooking, induction cooking has a very low level of ambient heat, thus making cooking more pleasurable, with a reduced need for ventilation.

Finally, the vitroceramic glass as a cooking surface barely becomes hot and this makes cleaning much easier.

When using induction elements, some cookware may produce faint humming sound. This is a normal occurrence. The noise is a result of vibrations caused by induced currents.

SET THE COOKING TEMPERATURE AS FOLLOWS

Set he heat setting the control knob.

OFF= element off 1= lowest setting 9= highest setting

B= Powerboost function A= Heating accelerator

Led indicator

H = Residual heat

B = Powerboost Function

= Power ON

These knobs provide control of the induction cooking zones above each knob there is indication of the zone controlled..

Push and turn the knob to the right to set the zone's operating power; the settings range from a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 9. (fig.16-17)

Heating accelerator

Each cooking zone is equipped with a heating accelerator.

This system allows the zone to be operated at peak power for a time proportional to the heating power selected.

To start the heating accelerator, turn the knob to the left, select setting "A" and then release. You now have 3 seconds to select the heating setting between 1 and 9.

While the heating accelerator is in operation, the heating level can be increased at any time. The "full power" time will be modified accordingly. If the power is reduced by turning the knob anticlockwise, the heating accelerator is automatically deactivated.

Powerboost Function

The power function allows the user to operate each heating zone continuously at the maximum power for a time of no more than 10 minutes. This function can be used, for example, to bring a large amount of water to the boil in a hurry, or to turn up the heat under meat.

Push and turn the knob clockwise and set heating level 9, then use the knob to set the "B" position and release il. "B" appears on the corresponding zone display.

After 10 minutes, the power is reduced automatically, "B" led is switched off.

However, the power function can be turned ott at any time by reducing the heating level..

When the power function is selected for one heating zone, the power absorbed by the second zone might be reduced to supply the maximum available energy to the first zone.

If a pan is removed from the cooking zone while the power function is on, the function is switched off.

Child lock

The child lock function prevents switching on of the control unit, to avoid unwanted operation, for example by children, While child lock is activated, no cooking zone can be used.

The child-lock mode is activated by overwinding the two knobs in anti-clockwise direction for mode than 1,5 secs-alternatively: one knob for more 5 secs; AND less than 30 secs to avoid failure detection.

The child-lock is disabled in the same way.

Aktivation/disabling is only possible if both knob input units are in zero position.
