[. . . ] A large, half-empty saucepan leads to a waste of energy. 43 Instructions for the user 6. 6 Power levels The power in the cooking zone can be adjusted to various levels. The table shows the levels suitable for various types of cooking. Power level 0 U 1-2 3-4 5-6 7-8 9 P* *See booster function. Suitable for OFF position Dishwarming Cooking small amounts of food (minimum power) Cooking Cooking large quantities of food, roasting larger portions Roasting, slow frying with flour Roasting Roasting / browning, cooking (maximum power) 6. 7 Saucepan recognition If there is no saucepan on a cooking zone or if the saucepan is too small, no energy will be transmitted and the symbol will appear on the display. If there is a suitable saucepan on the cooking zone, the recognition system notices it and turns on the hob to the power level set using the knob. Energy transmission is also interrupted when the saucepan is removed from the cooking zone (the symbol will appear on the display). If the saucepan recognition function is activated in spite of the saucepan or frying pan on the cooking zone being smaller than the zone itself, only the necessary energy will be transmitted. Saucepan recognition limits: The minimum diameter of the saucepan base is indicated by a circle inside the cooking zone. Pans with smaller diameters risk not being detected and therefore not activating the inductor. 6. 8 Residual heat If the cooking zone is still hot after being switched off, the symbol will appear on the display. The symbol clears once the temperature drops below 60°C. Supervise children carefully as they cannot readily see the indication of residual heat. The cooking zones remain hot for a certain period of time even after they have been turned off. Make sure that children never touch the hob. 6. 9 Heating accelerator Each cooking zone is equipped with a heating accelerator that allows to supply the maximum power for a time that is proportional to the selected power. Turn the knob to the left to the "A" position and then release; the symbol appears on the display. will Select the required heating power (1. . 8) within 3 seconds. The selected power and symbol flash alternately on the display. The power level can be increased at any moment, the "maximum power" period will automatically be modified. If the power is reduced, turning the knob anti-clockwise, the heating accelerator will automatically be disabled. 44 Instructions for the user 6. 10 Booster function The booster function allows to activate the cooking zone at maximum power as long as 10 minutes. It can be used to bring a large quantity of water to a boil rapidly or to broil meat. Turn the knob clockwise to the "P" position for two seconds and then release; the symbol will appear on the display. After 10 minutes the booster function will automatically be disabled and cooking will continue at power level "9". The booster function has priority over the heating accelerator function. 6. 11 Power management The hob is fitted with a power management module that optimises/limits consumption. [. . . ] INSTALLATION 11. 1 Installing in kitchen units Veneers, adhesives or plastic coatings on adjacent furniture should be temperature-resistant (no less than 90°C). If they are not sufficiently temperature-resistant, they may warp over time. The appliance must be installed by a qualified technician and according to the standards in force. Depending on the type of installation, this appliance belongs to class 2, subclass 1 (Fig. [. . . ]
