USING THE HOB

Before you begin, it is important to know: 

All functions of this cooktop are designed to comply with the 
most stringent safety regulations. 
For this reason: 

• Some functions will not be activated, or will be 
automatically deactivated, in the absence of pots on the 
burners or when they are poorly positioned. 

• In other cases the activated functions will be automatically 
deactivated after a few seconds, if the specific function 
requires a further setting that has not been selected (e.g.:

“Turn the cooktop on” 

without

 “Selecting the cooking 

zone”

 and the

 “Operating temperature”, 

or the

 “Lock 

Function” 

or the

 “Timer”

 function). 

  Caution! 

In the case (for example) of prolonged use, 

the cooking zone may not immediately shut down because it 
is in the cooling phase; the  “ ” symbol will appear on the 

cooking zone display, to indicate the execution of this phase. 
Wait for the display to turn off before approaching the cooking 
zone.

Hob characteristics 
 

 Safe Activation 

The product is activated only in the presence of pots on the 
cooking zone: the heating process does not start or is 
interrupted if there are no pots, or if these are removed. 
 

 Pot Detector 

The product automatically detects the presence of pots on the 
cooking zones. 

 Safety Shut Down 

For safety reasons, each cooking zone has a maximum 
operating time, which depends on the maximum power level 
set. 

 Residual Heat Indicator 

When one or more cooking zones shut down, the presence of 
residual heat is indicated by a visual signal on the 
corresponding zone display, by way of the “ ” symbol.
