Safety During Installation, Maintenance And Controls; Reproduction Or Use Of Unauthorised Spare Parts; Improper Usage; Starting The Appliance - Lotus PCI-94ETX Instructions Pour L'installation Et L'emploi

Do not allow liquids (water, oil or other) to enter the induction generator.
Do not clean the generator with a jet of water.
If the pyroceram top is cracked or broken, switch off the induction hob and disconnect the electricity supply.
Do not touch any of the internal parts of the induction generator.

Safety during installation, maintenance and controls.

The personnel responsible for use must be qualified. All installation, maintenance and control operations must be
performed by personnel qualified to issue the relative certificates requested by the relative authorities as regards safety
in the workplace.
Said personnel must study this manual in depth. Only highly qualified personnel may install, maintain, service, repair
and collect the induction generator component. In practice, said personnel must be trained by means of a specific
training course authorised by the manufacturer as regards the induction generator.
Moreover, they must meet the requirements set by the relative authorities as regards the electrical and electronic safety
of installations. Generally speaking, work should only be carried out on the induction generator component after it has
been disconnected from the electricity supply.
The induction generator must be switched off and disconnected from the power supply and electricity network.
The safety and protection installations must be replaced and reinstalled at the end of the above operations, in keeping
with the international, national and regional regulations and laws on safety, thus ensuring correct and safe usage of the
component.

Reproduction or use of unauthorised spare parts.

Reproductions or changes to the induction generator component are not permitted. Contact the manufacturer if you
observe any changes to the induction generator. To ensure safety, always use original spare parts, authorised by the
manufacturer.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event in which non-original spare parts have been used.

Improper usage.

The good working order of the induction generator components is only guaranteed in the event of correct usage as
described in this manual and as regulated by the international, national and regional laws and regulations on safety and
electromagnetic compatibility, which regulate components such as the induction generator.
Before using the appliance for the first cooking, it is necessary to clean it carefully, (see paragraph "cleaning and care").
Check the connection of the appliance and start it up following the instructions.
Caution: - always keep an eye on the appliance while it is in use!
- For models PCI... we recommend using flat-based pans, since those with a concave or rounded base
increase the cooking times and use more energy.
Instructions: each plate is connected to a power adjuster which lets you choose between the minimum temperature,
indicated on the knob by the number 1, and the maximum temperature, indicated by 6. For initial
cooking the highest temperatures are advised.
- each plate is equipped with a temperature limit switched which is triggered when the temperature
reached may damage the glass (see the paragraph "what to do in case of problems").
Warning: only use suitable pans (with a ferrite base).

What is induction cooking?

The principle of induction cooking is very simple. When the pan is placed on the pyroceram surface of the hob, it enters
a magnetic field generated by an induction system. The ferrous base of the pan heats up rapidly as molecules rub against
one another, producing heat. The heating speed and intensity can be adjusted by controlling the magnetic field.

Why should you choose induction ?

For Safety, because there are no flames or heat sources that create hazards when the pan is removed from the heat
source. The hob shuts off automatically as soon as the pan is removed
For Speed, because heat is generated directly inside the pan, allowing it to heat up immediately. For the same reason,
the temperature is adjusted immediately, in the same way as gas cooking
