DAILY USE

  SWITCHING THE HOB ON/OFF

To turn the hob on, press the power button for around 1 second. 

To turn the hob off, press the same button again, and all cooking zones will 

be deactivated.

 POSITIONING

Locate the desired cooking zone by referring to the position symbols.

Do not cover the control panel symbols with the cooking pot.

Please note: In the cooking zones close to the control panel, it is advisable to 

keep pots and pans inside the markings (taking both the bottom of the pan 

and the upper edge into consideration, as this tends to be larger). 

This prevents excessive overheating of the keypad. When grilling or frying, 

please use the rear cooking zones wherever possible.

the controls, repeat the activation procedure.

other controls the right-hand cooking zones.

To activate the timer

:

Press the “+“ or “−“ button to set the desired time on the cooking zone in use.

the set time has elapsed, a beep will sound, and the cooking zone will switch 

off automatically.

The time can be changed at any point, and several timers can be activated 

simultaneously.

In case 2 timers on the same side of the hob are activated simultaneously, 

“Zone selection indicator“ flashes and the relative cooking time selected is

FUNCTIONS

 FLEXI

By selecting the “FLEXI“ button, you can combine two cooking zones and 

use them at the same power by covering the entire surface with a large pot 

or partially with a round/oval pot. 

The function always remains on and, when using only one pot, can be 

moved over the entire area. In this case, both left-hand keypads can be used 

indifferently. 

Ideal for cooking with oval or rectangular pots or with pan supports.

To deactivate the function and return to manual mode, press the “FLEXI“ 

button.

IMPORTANT: 

Place the pots in the center of the cooking zone so that they 

cover at least one of the reference points (as shown below).

 COOK ASSIST

The “COOKASSIST“ button activates the special functions. 

Place the pot in position and select the cooking zone.

Press the “COOKASSIST“ button. The display of the selected area will show “A“.

The indicator for the first special feature available for the cooking zone will 

light up.

Select the desired special function by pressing the “COOKASSIST“ button 

one or more times.

The function is activated once the 

 button has been pressed to confirm.

To select another special function, press “0“ and then the “COOKASSIST“ 

button to choose the required function. 

To deactivate the special functions and return to manual mode, press “0“.

The power level when using special functions is pre-set by the hob and 

cannot be modified. 

 MELTING

This function allows you to bring food to the ideal temperature for melting 

and maintain the food condition without the risk of burning. 

This method is ideal, as it does not damage delicate foods such as chocolate 

and prevents them from sticking to the pot.
