Effective in three seconds and is for regular uniform cooking, but also sustained cooking. 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. · Use pans big enough to fully cover the heat source: it is best to make sure that the bottom is at least as large as the cooking zone. If the bottom is slightly larger, the energy is used most efficiently. 8- The following information will help you select the pans best adapted to obtain good results. Ceramic zone without pan detector Recommended Ceramic zone fitted with pan detector Recommended Stainless steel Aluminium Especially good with Sandwich bottom. The Sandwich bottom combines the q ua li ti e s o f sta i nle ss ste e l (a p p e a ra nce , d ura b i li ty a nd sta b i li ty) wi th the advantages of alumi ni um or copper (heat transmi ssi on and uniform distribution). Recommended Recommended Thick bottom recommended : Good conductivity. Residues sometimes appear as marks on the hob, but can be removed if cleaned off quickly. Cast-iron Not recommended Can scratch glass hob. Not recommended Enamelled steel Glass Good performance Good performance Flat, thick and smooth bottom recommended. Not recommended Non detectable Porcelain Poor performance. The heat level automatically goes down to "0". After 3 seconds, the cooking zone goes off. · GENERAL STOP The cooking zones and the timer can be stopped at any moment by pressing for 3 seconds on the On-Off button. · RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR The control panel tells the user when the surface temperature of the cooking zones exceeds about 60°C, by the following displaying: . For ending the cooking, we advise switching off the cooking zone and using the residual heat of the zone to finish cooking gently. When the temperature goes back below 60°C, the display goes off. N. B. After a cut in the current, the residual heat indicator disappears completely, even if the surface temperature exceeds 60°C. · PAN DETECTOR The pan detector is only fitted to hobs with double cooking 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. It also adapts the surface area of the cooking zone according to the size of the pan. If the cooking zone is used with a suitable pan*: the display shows the heat level. If the additional cooking zone is live (according to the size of the pan), a LED displays near the zone selection button. * the material of the pan's bottom must be suitable, see table on page 9. 12 - 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. [. . . ] Ceramic hobs comply with the requirements of Directives 73/23/EEC and 89/336/EEC. - 17 PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS The cooking zones do not · Only use flat-bottomed pans. If light is visible simmer or only fry gently. between the pan and the hob, the zone is not transmitting heat correctly. · The pan bottom should fully cover the diameter of the selected zone. [. . . ]
