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.
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.

Residual heat indicator
The hob has a residual heat indicator • on each hotplate,
which lights up when they are hot. Avoid touching them when
this indicator is lit.
The
• light will remain on while the hotplate is hot, even after

If the pan is removed before the hotplate is switched off, the
• will appear and alternate with the selected power level.
