Tip
If your hob is located above your oven, the hob's thermal safety measures forbid the simultaneous use of the hob and your oven's pyrolysis program (self-cleaning by extreme heat). This safety feature can be activated, for example, when the hob is installed over an oven that is not sufficiently insulated. In this case, we recommend that you increase the ventilation of your hob by creating an opening in the side of your cabinet (8 cm x 5 cm) and/or that you install the oven insulation kit (reference 75X1652) that is available from the After-Sales Service Department.

Preselected power settings
This function allows you to modify the power levels defined in the preselections (except for the boost). N. B. : The power levels must be between: - 1 and 5 for the first touch(4 by defect). - 6 and 10 for the second (8 by defect) - 11 and 15 for the third (15 by defect).
This function allows you to delay your cooking (the cooking zone marked "Start Control"). Program delayed cooking in 6 steps: 1 - Select the cooking zone dedicated to this function. A beep sounds and the indicator goes out.
Auto-Stop system
If you forget cooking is in progress, after a predefined time, this safety function will automatically turn off your hob (from 1 to 10 hours depending on the power setting). A beep will confirm your setting.
"Small Items" safety
If you place a small object on the area (a ring, a fork, etc), the hob will detect it and not deliver any power. Note: However, several small objects at the same time on a zone could be identified as cookware. Do not place any utensils (spoons, forks, covers, etc) on the cooking zone being used. They will heat up in the same way as cookware: Risk of combustion.
Safety when operating
Residual heat
After a long cooking period, the zone used can remain hot for several minutes. Do not put your hand on the zone.
Temperature limiter
Each cooking zone is equipped with a safety sensor that constantly monitors the temperature of the bottom of the cookware. If you leave empty cookware on a zone which is turned on, it will automatically limit the power in order to prevent damage to the cookware or hob.
Protection against overflows
In case of overflow, or of a metallic object or wet cloth placed on the control areas, the hob turns itself off, the displays light up and a beep sounds. Clean the hob or remove the object, then begin cooking again.
For users with heart pacemakers and active implants.
The functioning of the hob conforms to current electromagnetic interference standards and thus is in total compliance with legal requirements (89/336/EEC directives). In order to avoid interference between your cooking hob and a pacemaker, your pacemaker must be designed and programmed in compliance with the regulations that apply to it. As we can guarantee the compliance only of our own products, we strongly recommend that you refer to the maker of your device or to your doctor to avoid possible incompatibilities. 26

Preserve your appliance
The vitroceramic glass surface is highly resistant, but not unbreakable. Here are some recommendations for increasing its lifetime: - Avoid banging or clattering the cookware. - Never use aluminium foil or paper or aluminium scrubber to clean it. Aesthetic faults, as a result of mistreatment of your hob and which do not entail a lack of function, are not covered by our guarantee. And for the safety of your kitchen, do not place cleaning items or inflammable objects or products in the kitchen furniture underneath your cooking hob.
