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.
Place a suitable pan on the hotplate to stop the
indicator flashing. If there is a delay of more than 90
seconds, the hotplate switches off automatically.
Do not heat empty pans and do not use pans with thin
bases. 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. If this happens, do
not touch the pan and switch off the hotplate. If it
does not work after cooling, contact our After-Sales
Service.
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.
These areas can detect pans of different sizes. The
area will automatically adapt, depending on the pan
material and its properties, activating only a single
area or an entire area and supplying the right level of
power for best cooking results.
