OPERATING PRINCIPLE (Fig. 1)
It exploits the electromagnetic properties of most cooking
vessels.
The coil (inductor) which produces the electromagnetic field is
operated and controlled by the electronic circuit.
The heat is transmitted to food by the cooking vessel itself.
The cooking process takes place as described below.
- loss of heat is minimum (high efficiency)
- the system stops automatically when the vessel is removed or
even just lifted from the hob
- the electronic circuit guarantees maximum flexibility and fine
adjustments.

zone is selected at the moment.
After switching-ON the electronic control remains activated for
20 seconds. If no cooking zone or timer selection follows within
this period of time, the electronic control automatically switches
back into the stand-by-mode. The control can only be switched-
ON if it identifies the ON/OFF key alone being operated. Should
it recognize key activation other than that, the control remains
in the standby- mode.
If the child safety feature is active when switching on, all
cooking zones show "L", (LOCKED). If the cooking zones are
in a "hot" status, the display shows "L" and "H" in alternation.
When the Touch Control is ON it can be switched- OFF at any
time by operating the ON/OFF key. This is also valid if the control
has been locked (activated child safety feature).
The ON/OFF key has always priority in the switch-OFF function.
Automatic switch-OFF
When the control is ON it automatically sw itches-OFF after
20 seconds if no cooking zone or select key has been operated
within this period of time. If case of a cooking zone selection,
the automatic switch- OFF time is composed of 10 seconds
deselection time for a cooking zone at setting"0" and 10
seconds switch-OFF time.
Switching a cooking zone ON and OFF
First place the pan in the chosen cooking zone. If the pan is not
present the system cannot be switched on the correspondent
zone.
If the touch control is switched on, the cooking zone can be
selected by pressing the button (4) of the corresponding zone.

the zone will begin to heat up.
Once the cooking zone has been selected, the setting can be
selected by keeping the PLUS (3) button pressed down. The
setting begins at level 1 and increases by 1 level every 0.4
seconds. When setting "9" is reached, the setting will not be
changed further.
If the setting level has been selected using the MINUS (2) button,
the start level is "9" (maximum level). Keep the button pressed
