[. . . ] If your hob is correctly installed and used, the safety devices will rarely be needed. € Ventilation fan : to protect and cool the supply and control components. it has two speeds , operating automatically. The fan works even if the plates are off and this till the electronic system has enough cooled down. € Safety "Transistor" : a probe checks permanently the temperature of the electronic components. If the heat is increasing excessively, it automatically decreases the power of the plates then cuts them down (the display for power level is flashing) as far as the temperature of the components meets with the standard again, the hob starts working. • Safety "Empty pan" : a proble is placed under each heating area. It will immediately detect a wrong temperature for the empty pan, or the glass ceramic. € Safety "Detection" : the presence detector allows the working and so the heating. A small object (eg a spoon, knife or ring) placed on the heating area will not be considered as a pan and therefore the hob will not come on. € Safety "Boiling over and splashing : if any boiling over and splashing occur, the hob will stop. If a big spill or object covers at least two buttons, for at least 10 seconds, clean up the spill or remove the object, the hob is not operating. - 37 • PAN DETECTOR FOR INDUCTION ZONE The pan detector is only fitted to the induction zones. When the hob is operating, the pan detector provides the advantage of automatically stopping or starting the heat of the cooking zone in contact with or on removal of the pan. If the cooking zone is used with a suitable pan* : the display shows the heat level or if the Booster function is operating. * The induction needs pans compatibles so fitted with magnetic-bottomed, see table on the next page. If the cooking zone is used without a pan or with an unsuitable pan : the display shows . If no pan is detected after 10 minutes, the starting operation is cancelled. To stop the cooking zone, you must stop the hob normally, you cannot just remove the pan. IMPORTANT: the pan detector does not work as the hob on/off button. CHOOSING UTENSILS You should use high quality utensils to obtain good cooking results: • Use high quality utensils with flat and thick bottoms: a very flat bottom eliminates hot spots causing food to stick, and the thickness of the metal gives excellent heat distribution. € Make sure that utensil bottoms are dry: when you fill the container or use a pan straight out of the fridge, for example, make sure that it is dry; this check will stop any dirt getting on the cooking surface. [. . . ] Do not use a steam cleaner for cleaning operations. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. - 45 PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS The cooking zones do not simmer or only fry gently. If light is visible between the pan and the hob, the zone is not transmitting heat correctly. [. . . ]
