[. . . ] ENVIRONMENTAL CARE 3. 1 Our environmental care Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC relating to the reduction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse, the crossed out bin symbol on the appliance indicates that the product, at the end of its working life, must be collected separately from other refuse. Therefore, the user must consign the product that has reached the end of its working life to the appropriate selective collection centres for electrical and electronic refuse, or deliver it back to the retailer when purchasing an equivalent product, on a one for one basis. - Improved safety as the energy is only transmitted to the container placed on the hob. - High level of energy transmitted from the induction cooking zone to the base of the saucepan. - Reduced danger of burns as the cooking surface is only heated under the base of the saucepan; foods which overflow do not stick. 4. 1 Layout of the cooking zones Zone Outside diameter (mm) 200 160 Max. absorbed power (W) * 2300 1300 Absorbed power function (W) * 3000 1400 in power * power levels are indicative and can vary according to the pan used or the settings made. 4. 2 Cookware recognition If there is no saucepan on a cooking zone or if the saucepan is too small, no energy will be transmitted. If there is a suitable saucepan on the cooking zone, the recognition system notices it and turns on the hob to the set power level. Energy transmission is also interrupted when the saucepan is removed from the cooking zone (the symbol will flash on the display). If the cookware 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. Cookware 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. 31 Instructions for the user 4. 3 Cookware suitable for use in induction cooking The containers used on the induction cooking surface must be made of metal, with magnetic properties and a sufficiently large base. · Choose a saucepan suitable for the quantity of food to be cooked. A large, half-empty saucepan leads to a waste of energy. 4. 7 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 1-2 3-4 5-6 7-8 9 P Suitable for OFF position 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) 33 Instructions for the user 5. USING THE COOKING HOB 5. 1 General warnings and advice On first connection to the electrical mains, an operating check will be carried out automatically and all indicator lights will come on for a few seconds. After use, switch off the hot plates using the controls described in point "5. 5 Switching off the cooking zone". Never rely solely on the cookware detector. Never place metal objects, such as dishes or cutlery, on the induction hob surface as they may overheat. Danger of burns. 5. 2 Control panel All the appliance's control and monitoring devices are located together on the front panel. The induction hob is controlled by means of the Touch Control sensor keys. Lightly touch a symbol on the glass ceramic surface. [. . . ] Disconnect the hob from the power supply and call Technical Support. 40 Instructions for the installer 8. INSTALLATION 8. 1 Safety instructions for installing in kitchen units USE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT WHEN INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE. Veneers, adhesives or plastic coatings on adjacent furniture should be temperature-resistant (>90°C). If they are not sufficiently temperature-resistant, they may warp over time. The minimum distance between a ventilation hood and the cooking surface must be at least the distance indicated in the ventilation hood installation instructions. [. . . ]
