ENERGY SAVING TIPS
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
•
Use pots and pans whose bottom diameter is equal to that of
the cooking zone.
• Only use magnetic pots and pans with a flat bottom.
•
If possible use a lid. This makes it possible to use a lower
setting and save energy.
•
Boil vegetables and potatoes with little water to save energy.
•
A pressure cooker makes it possible to save more energy and
time than traditional pots.
Safety
1.
After use, when a cooking zone or the entire hob is turned
off, a residual heat indicator goes on displaying an
H
(hot)
for each cooking zone used, indicating that the
corresponding cooking zone is still dangerously hot. The
H
stays on until the cooking zone has reached a safe level
(around 60 °C).
2.
An automatic switch off device activates if a cooking zone
is accidentally left on for a long time. It can be turned back
on immediately if necessary by using the controls.
3.
To prevent damage to the electronic circuits, the hob is
equipped with a sensor which constantly monitors the
temperature of these circuits. In cases of overheating, the
hob turns off automatically until a safe temperature is
reached.
4.
To prevent children and others from improperly using the
appliance and to protect you from accidentally turning on
the hob during cleaning operations, the hob is equipped
with a safety lock, the key button. By pressing this button
the hob is locked and the red LED turns on.
5. Attention!
if the surface is cracked, turn off the appliance
to prevent the risk of electrical shocks and call the After
Sales Service.
•
Use a clean cloth, kitchen wipes, washing up liquid, specific
products or the supplied scraper tool.
•
Do not use abrasive powders or detergents, surface cleaning
sprays, spot or rust removers, bleach, sponges with abrasive
surfaces, or iron pan scourers.
•
Clean the hob if possible after every use, when it is still warm
or after it has cooled.
•
Foods with a high sugar content (toffee, fruit syrup, jam,
etc.) that boil over onto the hob or sugar spills must be
removed immediately using a scraper.
Important
Periodically check for dust under the appliance, near the
cooling air inlet or the outlet openings. This could hinder the
ventilation and cooling of the electronic module and decrease
the effectiveness of the hob.
NO!
