Instructions for the user
6.7 Induction hob
Metal objects such as silverware or lids must not be placed on the cooking
hob surface as they can become very hot.
6.7.1 Cooking zones
The appliance has 2 cooking zones of various
power levels and diameters. Their position is
clearly indicated with circles and the heat is
limited to within the diameters traced on the
glass.
The 2 cooking zones are of the HIGH-LIGHT
type, they turn on after a few seconds and the
heating is adjustable using the knob on the
front panel from low to high.
Under each cooking zone there is a coil called
an inductor which is
powered by an electronic system and which creates a variable magnetic
field. When a pan is positioned within this magnetic field, the high
frequency currents are concentrated directly onto the pan producing the
heat required for cooking the food.
The 2 lights at the front between the cooking
zones come on when one or more heating zones
surpasses 60°C. The lights only go off when the
temperature drops below approx. 60°C.
