[. . . ] Notes ■ If no pan has been placed on the hotplate, the selected power level flashes. After a certain time has elapsed, the hotplate switches off. ■ ■ Setting the hotplate Select the power level required with the 1 to 9 symbols. Power level 1 = minimum power Power level 9 = maximum power Each power level has an intermediate level. This level is marked with the Ú symbol in the programming zone. Press the ã or $ symbol of the desired hotplate. The ‹ indicator lights up as well as the ¬ symbol below. If a pan has been placed on the hotplate before switching on the hob, it will be detected within 20 seconds of pressing the main switch and the hotplate will be selected automatically. Once detected, select the power level within the next 20 seconds or the hotplate will switch off. If more than one pan is placed on the hob, only one will be detected when switching it on. Cooking guidelines table The table below contains some examples. Cooking times depend on the power level, type, weight and quality of the food.

When the flexible zone is working, only the zone covered by the cookware is activated. Consisting of two independent zones The flexible zone can be used normally as two independent hotplates. How to activate See “adjusting the hotplate“ section. Advice on using cookware To ensure that the cookware is detected and heat is distributed evenly, correctly centre the cookware: As one hotplate Diameter less than or equal to 13 cm Place the cookware on one of the four positions shown in the image. As one hotplate To use the entire hotplate with all individual zones. Select one of the two hotplates of the flexible zone and set the power level. 2. The power level lights up in the lower hotplate display. Diameter greater than 13 cm Place the cookware on one of the three positions shown in the image. The flexible zone is switched on. Changing the power level Change the desired power level in the programming zone. To add more cookware If the cookware takes up more than one hotplate, place it at the top or bottom edge of the flexible zone. Select the hotplate in the flexible zone and then press the å symbol to detect the cookware. Note: If the pan on the hotplate that is switched on is moved or removed, the hob will perform an automatic search and the previously selected power level will be maintained. To deactivate Set it to ‹ in the programming zone. As two independent hotplates The front and back hotplates, each with two inductors, can be used independently by selecting the necessary power for each one. In this case, it is recommended to only use one pan on each hotplate. Return to using two hotplates Select one of the two hotplates of the flexible zone and set to ‹. Note: When a hob is switched off and later switched on again, the flexible zone will again be used as two hotplates. Warnings When using cookware of a different size or made of a different material, noise and vibrations that do not affect the correct working of the zone may occur. [. . . ] It is caused by the vibrations that occur in the adjoining surfaces of the different superimposed materials. The amount of food and cooking method can vary noise intensity. A high-pitched whistling sound This noise is produced mainly in pans made from different materials superimposed on one another, and it occurs when such pans are heated at maximum power on two hotplates at the same time. The whistling disappears or becomes fainter as soon as the power level is lowered. Noise from the fan For proper use of the electronic system, the temperature of the hob must be controlled. [. . . ]
