Cooking Zones - Foster 7380645 Manual De Instalacion Y Uso

OPERATION
Cooking zones function
principle
Appropriate cookware
The hob is fitted with high power induction hotplates. Heat is generated directly at the
bottom of the dish, where it is most needed, without any losses through the glass surface.
The glass surface is not heated directly, but only by return heat transmitted by the dish.
This heat figures as
The induction hotplate generates heat from the induction coil, installed underneath the
glass surface. The coil creates magnetic field at the bottom of the dish (which can be
magnetized) which in turn originates whirling flows of current which then heat.
• Induction hotplate will function perfectly only if appropriate pot is used.
• The pot should be in the middle of the hotplate during cooking.
• The appropriate pot is the one which enables induction, for example steel, enamel or
steel alloy. Pots made from steel alloy with copper or aluminium bottom, or glass pots
are inappropriate.
• If you use the pressure pot, keep it under close surveillance until proper pressure is
obtained. Hotplate should first operate on maximum power, then follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
When buying cookware, check if it bears the label "allows induction".

Note:
When Bridge function is selected, you can use the created zone in different ways, with
one or two pots.
If you use larger pots than the recommended maximum size, the heating time will be
longer, because the heating will propagate from center to edges of the pot by conduction,
in this case also the temperature will be very inhomogeneous.
Magnet test
Use small magnet A to test if the dish bottom is magnetic. Only dishes where magnet
sticks to the bottom are suitable.
Dish recognition
One of great advantages of the induction hotplate is dish recognition.
When the hotplate is on, the power indicator displays
hotplate within the following 10 minutes, the hotplate recognizes the dish and turns on to
the pre-set power value.
At the moment you remove the dish from the hotplate, power is suspended. If you place
smaller dish upon the hotplate and it is recognized, the hotplate will only use the amount
of energy required to heat the dish according to its size.
Hotplate may be damaged if:
empty hop are heated up.
•
you don't use the appropriate pots.
•
you use clay dishes which leave scratches on the glass surface.
•
you don't wipe the pot bottom.
•
The use of bad quality cookware or any adapter for non-magnetic cookware invalidates
product warranty. In this case, the manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any
damage caused to the appliance and / or objects closed to the same.
