8. USING THE HOB

8.1 Cooking zones

The appliance is equipped with 4 cooking zones having different diameters and powers. Their positions are clearly marked by rings and heating only occurs inside the diameters marked on the ceramic hob. The 4 cooking zones are of HIGH-LIGHT type and start to heat up a few seconds after they are switched on. The heat level can be adjusted from the minimum to the maximum settings using the knobs on the front panel. Underneath each cooking zone there is a coil called an inductor, supplied with power by an electronic system, which generates a variable magnetic field. When a pan is placed inside this magnetic field, the high-frequency currents concentrate directly on the bottom of the pan and produce the heat needed to cook the foods.

When the hob is used for the first time, it should be heated to the maximum temperature for long enough to burn off any oily residues left by the manufacturing process, which might contaminate foods with unpleasant smells.

8.1.2 Types of pans

This type of appliance can only operate with pans of special kinds.

The bottom of the pan must be iron or steel/iron to generate the magnetic field necessary for the heating process.

Vessels made from the following materials are not suitable:

1glass;

2porcelain;

3pottery;

4steel, aluminium or copper without magnetic bottom.

To check that a pan is suitable, simply place a magnet close to its bottom: if the magnet is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If no magnet is to hand, put a little water in the pan, place it on a cooking zone and switch it on. If the symbol appears on the display instead of the power, the pan is not suitable.

The pans used for cooking must have certain minimum diameters to ensure satisfactory operation.
