This system lets the burner operate at maximum power for a time that is proportional to the selected power. To start the heating accelerator, turn the knob to the left, select the "A" position and release. The letter "A" appears on the cooking hob display. At this point you have 3 seconds to choose the desired heating position. Once the position has been adjusted between 1 and 9, "A" and the selected position will flash on the display. During the heating accelerator's operation it is possible to increase the heating intensity at any time. The "full power" period will consequently be modified. On the other hand, if the power is reduced, turn the knob anti-clockwise. "A" option is automatically deactivated. 6. 7. 3 Operating power settings Below is provided a table with the maximum power consumptions of the burners. Zone Number: 1 2 Zone Diameter 210 mm 145 mm Power consumed Normal operation: With power function: Normal operation: With power function: 1850 W 2500 W 1400 W 1800 W Before using the hob for the first time, pre-heat it to the maximum temperature long enough to burn any manufacturing oily residues which could give the food a bad smell. 52 Instructions for the user 6. 7. 4 Cookware Appliances of this type require special cookware to be able to work. In fact, the cookware must have an iron or steel/iron bottom to generate the magnetic field necessary for it to be heated up. Recipients made of the following are not suitable: · glass · ceramic: · terracotta · steel, aluminium or copper without a magnetic bottom To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If you do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the recipient, place it on a cooking zone and start the burner. If, instead of the power symbol, the symbol appears, it means the pan is not suitable. The pans used for cooking must have a minimum diameter to guarantee proper functioning. Below is a table with the minimum diameters for pans according to the cooking zone. Zone Number 1 2 Minimum cookware diameter 140 mm 90 mm Pans that are larger than the cooking zones can also be used, but care must be taken that the bottom of the pan does not come into contact with other cooking zones and that it is always centred on the cooking zone perimeter. 53 Instructions for the user Make sure you only use containers intended for induction cooking, with a thick and completely flat bottom, or, if not available, containers without a curved bottom (concave or convex).

After any zone is switched off, a flashing " "may appear on the display. [. . . ] The connection can be made using the adapter unit D with double cone, always inserting the supplied gasket C in between. Connection with flexible steel hose: Use only continuous wall stainless steel hoses that comply with current legislation, making sure to always insert the supplied gasket C between the connection A and the flexible hose B. Installation with the flexible hose must be carried out so that the length of the piping does not exceed 2 metres fully extended; make sure that the hoses do not come into contact with moving parts and that they are not crushed in any way. 9. 1 Connection to liquid gas Use a pressure regulator and make the connection on the gas cylinder following the guidelines established by the regulations in force. Make sure that the supply pressure complies with the values indicated in the table at point "10. 2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table". 64 Instructions for the installer 9. 2 Room ventilation The room containing the appliance should have an air supply in accordance with the standards in force.
