Operation of Product
3.1
Touch Controls
The controls respond to touch, so you don't need to apply any pressure.
•
Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.
•
You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
•
Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is no object (e.g. a utensil
•
or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the controls difficult to
operate.
3.2
Choosing the right Cookware
Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look
•
for the induction symbol on the packaging or on the bottom of the
pan.
You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a
•
magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is
attracted, the pan is suitable for induction.
If you do not have a magnet:
•
Put some water in the pan you want to check.
1.
If
does not flash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.
2.
Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless steel,
•
aluminum or copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and
earthenware.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the same
size as the cooking zone. Use pans whose diameter is as large as the graphic of the zone
selected. Using a pot a slightly wider energy will be used at its maximum efficiency. If you
use smaller pot efficiency could be less than expected. Pot less than 140 mm could be
undetected by the hob. Always center your pan on the cooking zone.
