							Induction21The induction principleAn induction coil is located under eachcooking zone. When a cooking zone isswitched on, this coil creates a mag-netic field which impacts directly on thebase of the pan and heats it up. Thecooking zone itself is heated up indir-ectly by the heat given off by the pan.An induction cooking zone only workswhen a ferromagnetic pan is placed onit (see "Pans"). The induction cookingzone automatically recognises the sizeof the pan.0004 will appear in the cooking zone dis-play,
–if the zone has been switched onwithout a pan in place, or if the pan isunsuitable (non-magnetic base),–if the diameter of the base of the panis too small,–if the pan is taken off the cookingzone when it is switched on.
If a suitable pan is placed on the cook-ing zone within 3 minutes, the 0004 will goout and you can continue as normal.If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placedon the cooking zone, the cooking zonewill switch off automatically after 3minutes. 000F and 0008 will flash alternately inthe cooking zone display.
When the appliance is switchedon either deliberately or by mistake,or when there is residual heatpresent, there is the risk of any metalitems placed on the hob (e.g. cutlery)heating up.Danger of burning.Do not use the hob as a restingplace for items. Switch the cookingzones off after use by turning thecontrol to "0". 
						

							Induction22NoisesWhen using an induction cooking zone,the following noises can occur in thepan, depending on what it is made ofand how it has been constructed.On the higher power settings, it mightbuzz. This will decrease or cease alto-gether when the power setting is re-duced.If the pan base is made of layers of dif-ferent materials (e.g. in a sandwichedbase), it might emit a cracking sound.Whistling might occur if linked zones(see "Booster") are being used at thesame time, and the pans also havebases made of layers of different mater-ials.You might hear a clicking sound fromthe electronic switches, especially onlower power settings.You might hear a whirring sound whenthe cooling fan switches on. It switcheson to protect the electronics when thehob is being used intensively. The fanmay continue to run after the appliancehas been switched off. 
						

							Induction23PansThe following pan types are suitable:–stainless steel with a base that canbe magnetised,–enamelled steel,–cast iron.
The following pan types are not suit-able:
–stainless steel pans without a mag-netic base,–aluminium and copper pans,–glass, ceramic or earthenware potsand pans.
To test whether a pot or pan is suitablefor use on an induction hob, hold amagnet to the base of the pan. If themagnet sticks, the pan is suitable.If an unsuitable pan is used, the 0004 sym-bol will appear in the cooking zone dis-play.The composition of the pan base canaffect the evenness of the cooking res-ults (e.g. when making pancakes).
–To make optimum use of the cookingzones, choose a pan with a suitablebase diameter (see "Guide to the ap-pliance - Cooking zones"). If the panis too small, it will not be recognisedand the 0004 symbol will appear in thecooking zone display.
–Only use pots and pans with smoothbases. Rough bases will scratch theceramic glass.–Lift pans into position on the hob.Sliding them into place can causescuffs and scratches.–Often the maximum diameter quotedby manufacturers refers to the dia-meter of the top rim of the pot orpan. The diameter of the base (gener-ally smaller) is the more importantone. 
						

							Tips on saving energy24–Use a lid whenever possible to min-imise heat loss.–Select a smaller pan when cookingsmall quantities. A smaller pan usesless energy than a larger pan withvery little in it.
–Cook with as little water as possible.–Once food has come to the boil orthe oil in the pan is hot enough forfrying, reduce the heat to a lower set-ting.
–Use a pressure cooker to reducecooking times.

These settings should only be taken as a guide. The power of the induction coils will varydepending on the size and material of the pan. For this reason, it is possible that the set-tings will need to be adjusted slightly to suit your pans. As you use the hob, you will get toknow which settings suit your pans best. When using new pans that you are not familiarwith, set the power level below the one specified. 
						

							Operation26Cooking zone controlsThe cooking zone controls must not beturned past B I or B I/II to 0.Switching on
Fire hazard.Do not leave the hob unattendedwhilst it is being used.Please note that the heating up timeon an induction hob is very muchshorter than on a conventional hob.
000ETurn the cooking zone control clock-wise to the setting you want.
The in-operation indicator will light up.The residual heat indicator will light upafter a certain temperature has beenreached.
Switching off000ETurn the cooking zone control anti-clockwise to 0.When all cooking zones are switchedoff the in-operation indicator will goout.
Residual heat indicatorIf a cooking zone is hot, the residualheat indicator will light up when it hasbeen switched off. The residual heat in-dicator will only go out when the cook-ing zone is safe to touch.
Danger of burning. Do not touchthe cooking zones whilst the residualheat indicators are lit up. 
						

							Operation27Auto heat-upWhen Auto heat-up has been activated,the cooking zone switches on automat-ically at the highest power setting andthen switches to the continued cookingsetting. The heat-up time depends onwhich continued cooking setting hasbeen chosen (see chart).Activating
000ETurn the cooking zone control anti-clockwise and hold until 0005 appears inthe cooking zone display.000ENow turn the cooking zone controlclockwise to the continued cookingsetting you want.The continued cooking level must beset within 5 seconds of activating Autoheat-up.You can change the continued cook-ing level up to approx. 10 secondsafter activating Auto heat-up.If you hold down the cooking zonecontrol for too long the system lockwill be activated and 0007 will appear inthe cooking zone display.
0005 lights up in the cooking zone displayduring the heat-up time (see chart).Deactivating

							Operation28BoosterThe cooking zones are equipped with aBooster with one level or a TwinBoosterwith two levels (see "Guide to the appli-ance - Hob").When activated, the power is boostedfor a maximum of 10 minutes so thatlarge quantities can be heated quickly,e.g. when boiling water for cookingpasta. The cooking zone will automatic-ally revert to power level 9 at the end ofthe Booster duration.Hobs with 2 cooking zones: the boosterfunction cannot be used on both cook-ing zones at the same time.Hobs with 4 cooking zones: the boosterfunction can only be used on a max-imum of two cooking zones at the sametime.
Cooking zones are linked in pairs tosupply the power for the booster func-tion.When the booster function is selected,a proportion of energy is taken awayfrom the linked cooking zone and thefollowing happens within the pairs:
–Auto heat-up is deactivated–the power level is reduced–the linked cooking zone is switchedoff.If the power level is reduced, the re-duced power level and 0008 will flash al-ternately in the cooking zone display.If the linked cooking zone is switchedoff, 000F and 0008 will flash alternately in thecooking zone display. 
						

							Operation29To switch on the Booster000ETurn the cooking zone control clock-wise past 9 to B I and back againto 9.
0006 will appear in the cooking zone dis-play, the "B"  Booster indicator will lightup.To switch on the TwinBooster, level 1
000ETurn the cooking zone control clock-wise past 9 to B I/II and back againto 9.
0006 will appear in the cooking zone dis-play, the "B"  Booster indicator will lightup.To switch on the TwinBooster, level 2
000ETurn the cooking zone control clock-wise past 9 to B I/II and back againto 9.
0006 will appear in the cooking zone dis-play, the "B"  Booster indicator will lightup.
000ETurn the cooking zone control oncemore clockwise past 9 to B I/II andback again to 9.
00060006 will appear in the cooking zone dis-play.
To switch off the Booster / Twin-Booster000ESelect a different power level.
The Booster symbol and "B" will go out. 
						

							Operation30Keeping warmThe keeping warm function is forkeeping food that has just beencooked warm, i.e. food that is still hot.It is not for reheating food that hasgone cold.
If the keeping warm function has beenactivated, the cooking zone will switchoff automatically after a maximum of 2hours.
–Keep food warm in the pan it wascooked in and cover with a lid.–You do not have to stir food while it isbeing kept warm.–Nutrients are lost when food iscooked, and continue to diminishwhen food is kept warm. The longerfood is kept warm for, the greater theloss of nutrients. Try to ensure thatfood is kept warm for as short a timeas possible.
Setting the keeping warm function000ETurn the control clockwise to 0003.
