DeLonghi DPIN 60 - Use of Induction Hob

2222
The ceramic hob is tted with induction cooking zones. These zones, shown by graphic
elements painted on the ceramic surface, are controlled by a touch control system.
INDUCTION COOKING SYSTEM
When your induction hob is switched On and a cooking zone has been selected, the
electronic circuits produce induced currents that instantaneously heat the bottom of the
pan which then transfers this heat to the food.
Cooking takes place with hardly any energy loss between the induction hob and the food.
Your induction hob operates only if a correct pan/co󰀨ee pot with the right features is
placed on a cooking zone. Please refer to “COOKWARE/COFFEE POT FOR INDUCTION
COOKING”.
COOKWARE/COFFEE POT FOR INDUCTION COOKING
The induction cooking system OPERATES ONLY if using correct cookware suitable for
induction cooking (normally identied by an induction symbol on the bottom of the cookware/
co󰀨ee pot). The use of not suitable cookware may cause damage to the appliance.
The bottom of the pan/co󰀨ee pot has to be ferromagnetic to generate the electromagnetic
eld necessary for the heating process (meaning a magnet has to stick to the bottom of the
pan/co󰀨ee pot).
Pans/co󰀨ee pots made from the following materials are not suitable:
• glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, stoneware;
• pure stainless steel, aluminium or copper without magnetic bottom.
To check if a pan/co󰀨ee pot is suitable or not:
• Test the bottom of the pan/co󰀨ee pot with a magnet: if the magnet sticks, the pan is suitable.
• If a magnet is not available pour a small amount of water inside the pan/co󰀨ee pot and
place the pan on a cooking zone. Switch on the cooking zone: if the cooking zone display
shows alternately the set power level and “ ”, the pan/co󰀨ee pot is not suitable (then
after 1 minute, the power level automatically returns to “0 ”).
Important: Do not use pots/co󰀨ee pot adaptors; this could cause an overheating and
possible damage to the appliance.
Important note: the cooking zones will not operate if the pan/co󰀨ee pot diameter is too
small. To correctly use the cooking zones follow the indications given in the following table.
Induction cooking zone
Minimum pan diameter recommended
(referred to the bottom of the pan)
Cooking zone Ø 145 mm 90 mm
Cooking zone Ø 210 mm 130 mm
