Empty pans or those with a thin base
Do not heat empty pans, nor use pans with a thin base. The hob is equipped with an internal safety system. However, an empty pan may heat up so quickly that the "automatic switch off" function may not have time to react and the pan may reach very high temperatures. The base of the pan could melt and damage the glass on the hob. In this case, do not touch the pan and switch the hotplate off. If it fails to work after it has cooled down, please contact the Technical Assistance Service.
Pan detection
Each hotplate has a minimum limit for detecting pans, which varies depending on the material of the pan being used. You should therefore use the hotplate that is most suitable for the diameter of your pan.
Familiarise yourself with the appliance
These instructions for use are applicable to other hobs. On page 2 an overview of the models is provided, along with information on measurements.

Residual heat indicator
The hob has a residual heat indicator • on each hotplate, which lights up when they are hot. Avoid touching them when this indicator is lit.
The • light will remain on while the hotplate is hot, even after the hob has been turned off.
If the pan is removed before the hotplate is switched off, the • will appear and alternate with the selected power level.
