The safety devices
Acoustic signal
Anomalies such as:
• an object (such as a saucepan or a lid, etc.) placed
for more than 10 seconds on the control zone,
• boiled-over liquids or food spilled on the control zone,
• prolonged pressure on a key,...
could cause a beep to sound and the hob to turn off.
To stop the beep from sounding, remove the cause of the
malfunction.
To use the hob, turn it back on and re-select the cooking
zone(s) you wish to use. Set the desired heating power.
Safety cut out
Your appliance is fitted with a safety cut out which inter-
venes after a certain amount of time (see table below)
depending on the power setting. When the safety cut out
has intervened, the power display indicates “0”.
for example: the back right cooking zone is set to 5 and
the front left zone is set to 2. The back right zone will turn
off after 3 hours of operation and the front left zone will
turn off after 10 hours of operation.
To unlock the controls, turn the hob off by pressing the
key.
Overheating protection device
Should your appliance’s electronic components overheat,
the hob will turn off automatically and “—” will come up on
the power level display.
The letter will disappear as soon as the temperature drops
back down to an acceptable level.

Pan recognition
Each induction cooking zone is fitted with a pan recogni-
tion device. The cooking zone only provides heat in the
presence of a pan which is suitable for the cooking zone.
A blinking pan recognition indicator could signal:
• that the pan is made of unsuitable material, which is
not ferromagnetic,
• that the diameter of the pan is too small,
• that the pan has been removed.
Always match the diameter of the pan with that of the
cooking zones.
Warning: oval cooking zones
Oval cooking zones can only be boosted if the full oval is
enabled.
Do not place two small saucepans on oval cooking zones.
What cookware to use
Given that induction only exists when the magnetic field
is sealed by a metallic recipient, the pan stops being heated
as soon as it is taken off the cooking zone.
Use cookware made of material which is compatible
with induction (ferromagnetic material).
Cast iron, enamelled steel or special induction stain-
less steel saucepans are ideal.
Copper, ceramic, earthenware, glass, terracotta, aluminium
and non magnetic stainless steel cookware is incompat-
ible with induction cooking.
The easiest way to find out whether the pan is suitable
is with a magnet. If the magnet is attracted by the pan
bottom and stays “stuck” to the same, the pan is made of
ferromagnetic material and can be used on your induction
hob.
We recommend you use pans with a very flat and thick
bottom and avoid at all costs all cookware with irregular
rough bases which could scratch the glass surface.

For the attention of wearers of pacemakers or other
active implants:
The hob complies with all current standards on
electromagnetic interference. Your induction hob is therefore
perfectly in keeping with legal requirements (89/336/CEE
directives). It is designed not to create interference on any
other electrical apparatus being used on condition that the
apparatus in question also complies with this legislation.
Your induction hob generates short-range magnetic fields.
To avoid any interference between your induction hob and
a pacemaker, the latter must be designed to comply with
relevant regulations. In this respect, we can only guarantee
our own product conformity. Please consult the pacemaker
manufacturer or your doctor concerning its conformity or
any possible incompatibility.
