Resumen del manual
Please note: pan manufacturers usually provide the diameter for the top of the pan, which is usually larger than the diameter of the pan base. ¦ Use a small pan for small amounts of food. A large pan which is not full uses a lot of energy. ¦ Use little water when cooking. This saves energy and preserves all the vitamins and minerals in vegetables. ¦ Select the lowest power level to maintain cooking. If the power level is too high, energy is wasted. Induction cooking Advantages of induction cooking Induction cooking represents a radical change from the traditional method of heating; the heat is generated directly in the pan. It therefore offers a number of advantages: ¦ Time savings for cooking and frying; since the pan is heated directly. ¦ Energy is saved. ¦ Care and cleaning are simpler. Foods that have spilt do not burn as quickly. ¦ Heat and safety control; the hob supplies or cuts off power as soon as the control knob is turned on. The induction hotplate stops supplying heat if the pan is removed without having previously switched it off. Cookware Only ferromagnetic pans are suitable for induction cooking; these may be made from: ¦ enamelled steel ¦ cast iron ¦ special stainless steel induction pans. To determine whether a pan is suitable, check to see if a magnet will stick to its base. There are other types of cookware for induction whose base is not entirely ferromagnetic. When using large cookware on a smaller ferromagnetic area, only the ferromagnetic zone heats up, so heat might not be uniformly distributed. Pans with aluminium areas inserted in the base reduce the ferromagnetic area, so less heat may be supplied and the pan may be difficult to detect or not be detected at all. For good cooking results, the diameter of the cookware's ferromagnetic area should match the size of the hotplate. If cookware is not detected on a hotplate, try it on the next smaller hotplate down. Unsuitable pans Never use diffuser hobs or pans made from: ¦ common thin steel ¦ glass ¦ earthenware ¦ copper ¦ aluminium Characteristics of the pan base Empty pans or those with a thin base The characteristics of the pan base may affect the uniformity of the cooking results. Pans made from materials which help diffuse heat, such as stainless steel sandwich pans, distribute heat uniformly, saving time and energy. Absence of pan or unsuitable size If no pan is placed on the selected hotplate, or if it is made of unsuitable material or is not the correct size, the power level displayed on the hotplate indicator will flash. Place a suitable pan on the hotplate to stop the flashing. If this takes more than 90 seconds, the hotplate will switch off automatically. Getting to know your appliance On page 2, you will find information on the dimensions and power of the hotplates. The control panel Control panels # Main switch . Selecting the hotplate .

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.
