If the appliance has a power socket, it must be installed in such a way that the socket is

4. OPERATION
Touch controls
The buttons react to touch, so there is no need to apply any pressure.
-
Use the base of your finger, not the tip. Fig. 10
-
You will hear a beep every time the hob detects a finger.
-
Make sure the buttons are always clean and dry and that no objects (for example, a utensil
-
or a cloth) are covering them. Even a thin film of water can make it difficult to operate the
buttons.
Selecting suitable cookware
Use only cookware with a suitable base for induction hobs.
-
Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or on the bottom of the cookware.

You can check if your cookware is suitable with a magnet test. Move a magnet towards
the cookware base (Fig. 11). If the cookware attracts it, this means that it is suitable for the
induction hob. If you do not have a magnet:
1. Pour some water in the cookware you wish to check and place it on one of the cooking
zones.
2. If
does not appear on the display flashing and water heats up, the cookware is suitable.
Cookware made of the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless steel, aluminium or
copper without magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.
Do not use cookware with serrated edges or with a curved base. Fig. 12
-
Make sure the base of the cookware is smooth, flat against the glass, and of same size as
-
the cooking zone. Use cookware whose diameter is the same as the cooking area selected.
The use of a slightly wider cookware will increase the efficiency of the energy used. If
you use smaller cookware, efficiency will be affected. The hob may not detect cookware
smaller than 140 mm. Always place the cookware at the centre of the cooking zone. Fig. 13
Always lift the cookware off the induction hob, do not slide it, as it could scratch the glass.
