Empty pans or those with a thin base
Do not heat empty pans, nor use pans with a thin base. The
hob is equipped with an internal safety system. However, an
empty pan may heat up so quickly that the "automatic switch
off" function may not have time to react and the pan may reach
very high temperatures. The base of the pan could melt and
damage the glass on the hob. In this case, do not touch the
pan and switch the hotplate off. If it fails to work after it has
cooled down, please contact the Technical Assistance Service.

æ Grill plate
The hotplate turns on automatically
when a pan the same size as its outer
edges is placed on it.
Residual heat indicator
The hob has a residual heat indicator for each hotplate to show
those which are still hot. Avoid touching a hotplate that displays
this.
Even when switched off, the œ/• light will remain on as long as
the hotplate remains hot.
If the pan is removed before the hotplate is turned off the œ/•
indicators and the selected power level will appear alternately.

Pan detection
Each hotplate has a minimum limit for detecting pans, which
varies depending on the material of the pan being used. You
should therefore use the hotplate that is most suitable for the
diameter of your pan.
