Description of the automatic functions
The hob features automatic functions for each cooking zone. The symbols of the available functions are
shown next to the selection button for each cooking zone. When an automatic function is selected, an
indicator light will switch on next to the symbol and the letter “A” will appear in the cooking zone
display.
Simmering
The simmering function automatically sets the selected cooking zone to a minimum boiling
temperature. Place a pot or pan down, switch on the hob and select the cooking zone you want to use.
Press the button: “A” will appear on the display and the indicator light will switch on. To deactivate
the function, simply press OFF on the slide touchscreen.
Melting
This function maintains a permanently low temperature in the cooking zone. Place the pan/accessory
on the cooking zone you want to use, switch on the hob and select the cooking zone. Press the
button: “A” will appear on the display and the indicator light will switch on. To deactivate the function,
simply press OFF on the slide touchscreen.
Sensor
The SENSOR function automatically selects the ideal power setting for bringing water to the boil and
signals boiling point.
Place a pot or pan of water down, switch on the
hob and select the cooking zone you want to use.
Press the button: “A” will appear on the
display and the indicator light will switch on. An
animation is displayed in the space next to the
cooking zone during heating.
To ensure that the SENSOR function works correctly, we recommend that you:
- Only use water (at room temperature)
- Do not add salt, ingredients or seasoning before the water reaches boiling point
- Do not change the cooking zone’s power setting, or remove or move the pan
- Do not use pressure cookers
- Fill the pan at least 1/3 full (min. 1 litre) and never to the brim (see table on the right).
Follow the following recommendations for optimum results:
- Do not put the lid on a pan if it is being used with the SENSOR function
- Do not activate the SENSOR function if the zone is still hot (indicated by the letter “H” on the display).
Once the water has come to the boil, a signal will sound three times at regular intervals. After the
second signal, a minute counter will automatically start timing the boiling time. After the third signal,
the hob will automatically select a lower power setting to keep the water simmering. You can now add
your ingredients, set the timer or change the power setting. Changing the power setting or selecting
the “pause” function will override the SENSOR function.
The function is deactivated if the “pause” function is selected.
- The hob manages the SENSOR function and booster settings autonomously; this means that, in some
cases, it may not be possible to activate the booster if the SENSOR function is already in use.
- The quality of the cookware you use may affect the performance of the SENSOR function.
