See the illustration.• Each phase has a maximum electricityload.• The function divides the power betweencooking zones connected to the samephase.• The function activates when the totalelectricity load of the cooking zonesconnected to a single phase is exceeded.• The function reduces the power of theother cooking zones connected to thesame phase.• The heat setting display of the reducedzones changes between two levels.7. HOB - HINTS AND TIPSWARNING!Refer to Safety chapters.7.1 CookwareFor induction cooking zones a strongelectro-magnetic field creates the heat inthe cookware very quickly.Use the induction cooking zones withsuitable cookware.Cookware material• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel,stainless steel, multi-layer bottom (with acorrect marking from a manufacturer).• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,glass, ceramic, porcelain.Cookware is suitable for an induction hobif:• water boils very quickly on a zone set tothe highest heat setting.• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of thecookware.The bottom of the cookware must be asthick and flat as possible.Ensure pan bases are clean and drybefore placing on the hob surface.Cookware dimensionsInduction cooking zones adapt to thedimension of the bottom of the cookwareautomatically.The cooking zone efficiency is related to thediameter of the cookware. The cookware witha diameter smaller than the minimumreceives only a part of the power generatedby the cooking zone.48 ENGLISH
