Using The Induction Hob; General Warnings - Lancellotti Maestro Série Manuel D'utilisation

11. Using the induction hob

The hob is equipped with one radiant generator per cooking zone. Each generator located below
the glass ceramic cooking surface generates an electromagnetic field that induces a thermal
current in the base of the pan.
In induction cooking, heat is not transmitted from a heat source, but created by inductive currents
directly inside the pan.
Advantages of induction cooking:

11.1 General warnings

Remove all labels and self-adhesives from the ceramic glass.
Before connecting the appliance to the mains, ensure it has been standing at room temperature
for at least 2 hours.
People with a pacemaker or other similar devices must ensure that the operation of their devices is
not jeopardised by the induction field, the frequency range of which is between 20 and 50 kHz.
Do not wear metal objects or necklaces in direct contact with the body. When entering the radiating
field of the induction hob, they may overheat with an ensuing risk of scalding. Non-magnetisable
metals (e.g. gold or silver) do not carry this risk.
Objects with a magnetic strip (credit cards, swipe cards, floppy discs, etc.) must not be left near the
appliance while it is on.
Do not heat canned food or other sealed containers. The pressure that builds up inside the
container during cooking may cause it to explode.
Do not place metal objects such as cookware or cutlery on the surface of the hob as they can
overheat, with an ensuing risk of scalding.
Never cover the appliance with a cloth or a protection sheet. this is supposed to become very hot
and catch fire.
Do not use the glass surface of the hob as a countertop or work surface.
Make sure no cable of any fixed or moving appliance contacts with the glass or the hot saucepan.
Any damage arising from the use of saucepans unsuitable for induction cooking, or of removable
accessories between the pan and the radiant element, will void the warranty. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for damage to the hob or related damage arising from improper use.

Instructions for the user
Energy saving thanks to the direct transmission of energy to the pan, compared with traditional
electric or gas cooking.
Safer thanks to the transmission of energy solely to the pan rested on the hob.
Highly efficient energy transmission from the induction cooking zone to the base of the pan.
Rapid heating speed.
Reduced risk of burns, since the cooking surface is heated solely at the base of the pan.
Spilt food does not stick to the surface of the hob.
