Pan detection: allows the hob to detect pans placed on a cooking zone.
Small objects placed on the cooking zone (eg, spoon, knife, ring ...) will
not be recognised as pans and the hob will not operate.
Pan detector
Pan detector is installed in induction hobs. Pan detector starts heat-
ing automatically when a pan is detected on a cooking zone and stops
heating when it is removed. This helps save electricity.
• When an suitable pan is placed on a cooking zone, the display
shows the heat setting.
• Induction requires the use of suitable cookware with ferromagnetic
base (see Table).
If a pan is not placed on a cooking zone or the pan is unsuitable, the
symbol is displayed. The cooking zone will not operate. If a pan is not
detected within 10 minutes, the cooking zone will be switched o.
Switch o the cooking zone using the touch control sensor field rather-
than by removing the pan.
Pan detector does not operate as the on/o sensor.
The induction hob is equipped with electronic touch control sensor
fields, which are operated by touching the marked area with a finger.
Each time a sensor field is touched, an acoustic signal can be heard.
When switching the appliance on or o or changing the heat setting,
attention should be paid that only one sensor field at a time is touched.
When two or more sensor fields are touched at the same time (except
timer and child lock), the appliance ignores the control signals and may
trigger a fault indication if sensor fields are touched for a long time.
