[. . . ] Switch off the hotplate. 5 Cooking using a water bath Cooking using a water bath involves cooking food inside a pot which is in turn placed in another larger pan which contains water. In this way, the food is heated gently and constantly and it is the hot water, not the direct heat of the hotplate, which cooks the food. When cooking food using a water bath, avoid resting tins, glass jars or containers made from other materials directly on the base of the pan which contains the water, to avoid breaking the glass in both the hob and the container as a result of the hotplate reheating. If there is a drawer below the cooĆ king hob, this should not be used to store any flamĆ mable objects or sprays. Hot cooking hob Wet hotplates and pan bases Risk of injuries! [. . . ] Check the diameter as this could affect the pan detection as well as the cooking results. To find out whether the pans are suitable, check that they are attracted to a magnet. The manufacturer will usually indicate if their pans are suitable for induction cooking. Checking pans using a magnet 10 Unsuitable pans Never use pans made from: H standard, high quality steel H glass H earthenware H copper H aluminium Characteristics of the base of the pan The characteristics of the base of the pan can affect the evenness of the cooking. Pans which are made from heat-diffusing materials (such as "sandwich" pans made from stainless steel) distribute the heat evenly, saving time and energy. If no pan is placed on the hotplate, or the pan is not made of a suitable material or it is not a suitable size, the heat setting on the hotplate indicator will flash. If there is a delay of more than 90 seconds, the hotplate switches off automatically. Although your hob is equipped with an internal safety system, empty cookware can heat up so quickly that the "automatic OFF" function does not have time to react and a very high temperature may be reached. The base of the pan could melt and damage the hob's glass surface. Each hotplate has a minimum limit for pan detection which varies according to the material from which the pan being used is made. It is for this reason that you are recommended to use a hotplate which matches the diameter of the pan. Warning: The selected heat setting will flash if no pan is placed on the induction hotplate. Switching off the hotplate Turn the control to the left to position 0. The hotplate is switched off and the residual heat indicator is displayed. 14 Cooking table Some examples are given in the following table.

This function allows you to increase the maximum power level of the hotplate in use. Restrictions when using the Powerboost function All the elements have this function. The Powerboost function is available provided that the other hotplate is not functioning, (see diagram). [. . . ] This whistling disappears or lessens as soon as the power is reduced. A low buzzing noise, like a transformer A low whistle Sizzling High-pitched whistling 22 Noise from the fan To run the electronic system properly, the cooking hob must operate at a controlled temperature. To do this, the cooking hob is fitted with a fan which comes on after each temperature detected using different power levels. The fan will also continue to operate after the cooking hob has been switched off, if the temperature detected is still too high. They are part of induction heating technology and do not indicate a malfunction. AfterĆsales service Our afterĆsales service is there for you if your appliance should need to be repaired. [. . . ]
