• Use pans whose diameter is wide enough to completely cover
the surface unit : the size of the pan should be no smaller than the
heating area. If it is slightly wider the energy will be used at its
maximum efficiency.
THE CHOICE OF COOKWARE - The following information will help
you to choose cookware which will give good performance.
Stainless Steel : highly recommended. Especially good with a
sandwich clad base. The sandwich base combines the benefits of
stainless steel (appearance, durability and stability) with the
advantages of aluminium or copper (heat conduction, even heat
distribution).
Aluminium : heavy weight recommended. Good conductivity.
Aluminium residues sometimes appear as scratches on the hob, but
can be removed if cleaned immediately.
Because of its low melting point, thin aluminium should not be used.
Cast Iron : usable, but not recommended. Poor performance. May
scratch the surface.
Copper Bottom / stoneware: heavy weight recommended. Good
performance, but copper may leave residues which can appear as
scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the hob is
cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil
dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass hobs. An overheated copper
pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the hob.
Porcelain/enamel : Good perfomance only with a thiny smooth, flat
base.
Glass-ceramic : not recommended. Poor performance. May scratch
the surface.
6. USE
How to choose power management level
Through the "Power management" function, the user can set the
maximum power that can be reached by the hob. Power management
function is only available during first 30 seconds after switch on the
hob. There is even the possibility to repeat this setting switching off
and on the power plug. By setting the desired maximum power, the
hob automatically adjusts the distribution in the various cooking zones
so that this limit is never exceeded; with the added advantage of being
able to simultaneously manage all the zones without overload
problems. The customer can set the maximum power of hob between
2.5 kW and the maximum related power of the hob (this can change
according to the model). For example if the maximum power of the hob
is 7 kW, the maximum power level for setting is between 2.5kW and
7 kW. After connecting the appliance to the electrical power, within 30
seconds you can set the power level based on the points shown
below:
1.- Sw tch on hob.
2.- Let touch control f n sh ts n t al zat on process.
3.-Unlock the control.
