Start-up and use
!
The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of grease
on the glass. Before using the appliance, we recommend
you remove these with a special non-abrasive cleaning
product. During the first few hours of use there may be a
smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly.

A few seconds after the hob is connected to the
electricity supply, a buzzer will sound. The hob may now
be switched on.
Types of noise during normal hob operation:
• Buzz:

Buzz: due to the vibration of the metallic parts that
make up the induction element and the pot; it is
generated by the electromagnetic field required for
heating and increases as the power of the induction
element increases.

power and/or when the booster function is set on the
larger element while the other is auto-adjusted. Noise is
reduced by decreasing the power level of the auto-
adjusted induction element; pot bottom layers made of
different kinds of materials are among the main causes
of this noise.

functions correctly and to safeguard the electronic unit
from possible overheating. The fan functions at
maximum power when the large induction element is at
maximum power or when the booster function is on; in
all other cases, it works at average power depending on
the temperature detected. Furthermore, the fan may
continue to work even after switching the hob off, if the
temperature detected is high.
The types of noise listed above are due to induction
technology and are not necessarily operational faults.

To operate a cooking zone, select the button
corresponding to the desired zone (
required power level by pressing down on the slider
and moving it towards the right to increase the
power level, or towards the left to decrease the
power level.
Booster function*
The booster function for some of the cooking zones may
be used to shorten heating-up times. It may be activated
by pressing the
button. The indicator light directly
Booster
above the button will illuminate. This function boosts the
power to 2000 W or 3000 W, depending on the size of the
relevant cooking zone.
The booster stops automatically after 4 minutes. While the
booster for one of the cooking zones is active, the
corresponding front or rear cooking zone will operate at a
reduced power level (e.g. if the booster for the rear left-
hand hotplate has been activated, the power level of the
front left-hand hotplate will be reduced). For further
information, please refer to the Technical description of the
models .
Switching off the cooking zones
To switch off the hotplate, press the (
moving the slider towards the left to return to level 0,
or press the

button on the slider control directly.
! The first time the slider is pressed, a short beep
will sound to acknowledge the touch. If - and only if -
the power level is adjusted, another short beep will
sound when the slider is released.
! The hotplate selection LEDs light up for the power
adjustment period (10 seconds), during which the
slidercan influence the selected hotplate.
Programming the cooking duration
