an external timer or a remote control system.
The manufacturers decline any responsibility
in the event of non-compliance with what is
described above and the accident prevention
norms not being respected and followed.
To avoid all risk, if the power cable
becomes damaged, it must only be
replaced by the manufacturer, by an
authorised service centre, or by a
qualified electrician.
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.

Installation
All operations relative to installation (electric connection) should be
carried out by skilled personnel in conformity with the rules in force.
As for the specific instructions see part pertaining to installer.
Switching the Touch Control ON/OFF
After mains voltage is applied the control initializes for approx.
1 second before it is ready for operation.
After a reset all displays and LEDs glow for approx. 1 second. When
this time is over all displays and LEDs extinguish and the control is
in the stand-by mode.
Press the ON/OFF (1) button to switch the touch control on.
The cooking zone displays show a static "0".
If a cooking zone is in the "hot" status, the display shows a static
"H" instead of "0". The bottom right dot is blinking in 1 second
intervals on all cooking zone displays to indicate that no cooking
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 switches-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 display (5) of the zone selected lights up, while the remaining
displays are dimmed. if the cooking zone is "hot", "H" and "0" are
alternately displayed.
Press the PLUS (3) or MINUS (2) button to select a setting and 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 down to
lower the active level by 1 every 0.4 seconds. When setting "0" is
reached, there will be no further setting changed. The setting can
only be changed by pressing the MINUS (2) or PLUS (3) button again.
Switching a cooking zone off
Select the zone to be switched off using the corresponding
button (4). The display (5) of the zone selected lights up, while the
remaining displays are dimmed. Press the Cooking zone (4) and
MINUS (2) buttons at the same time and the setting level of the zone
is changed to 0. Alternatively, the MINUS button (2) can be used to
reduce the setting level to 0.
If a cooking zone is "hot", "H" and "0" will be alternately displayed.
Switching-OFF all cooking zones
Immediate switching-OFF of all cooking zones can be achieved
anytime by means of the ON/OFF key. In the standby-mode an "H"
appears on all cooking zones which are "hot". All other cooking zone
displays are not illuminated.
Wattage settings
The output of the cooking zones can be set in 9 steps which
are indicated by the figures "1" thru "9" by means of LED
sevensegment-displays.
In the cooking zone located on the front left, when selecting the
power level 9 and after 30 minutes operating, the power will
decrease slightly for safety reasons. In case more power is required,
select the boost level ("P")
Boost function
