[. . . ] â· Electrical connection must be carried out by a certified specialist familiar with official regulations. â· If your appliance has halogen hotplates avoid, looking directly at them when they are not covered by a cooking pan. Fill in the data table below with all the data of the cooktop that appear on its label. When properly cared for, your new Fagor cooktop has been designed to be a safe and reliable appliance. [. . . ] Once these steps have been carried out the setting sequence of the heat source timer ends. If between each step there is a pause of over 10 seconds or if you do not choose a length of time, the timer will automatically switch itself off Once the timer has been set to a heat source and the time has been chosen, the timer will gradually count down the time and will indicate the time remaining to switch off the heat source. During the timing, in the heat source display you can see the selected power and the (indicating that this heat source is timed) alternatively. Once the time has passed the heat source will switch itself off, the control will release a warning acoustic signal and will flash in the timing display. Sensors The radiant cooking surface is fitted with sensors that are touch-sensitive and also react to the presence of a reflective object. the hotplate is operated by touching the corresponding sensors with your finger. Take care to touch only one sensor at a time, otherwise they will not react to the touch. While the cooking surface is off, the indicators for all sensors are also switched off. If no power is selected within five seconds, the hotplate will automatically switch off and must be switched on again. Touching these allows the power to be set in the cooking ranges of 1 to 9. To alter the power while the hotplate is on, touch - / + sensors to obtain the required power level. Switching off the heat source Choose 0 power for the heat source when you wish to turn off. if the hotplate is hot , H will light up indicating the hotplate is still hot. Residual heat display H When activated but with level 0, the corresponding displays shows 0 and H alternatively. While a hotplate is still hot but switched off, the display will show H. Depending on the power that was used, this display may remain on for up to approximately 30 minutes. Do not touch the hotplate or its surrounding area , white "H" is displayed. If a power outage occurs while the residual heat display is on, remember that when power is restrored the display will not re-appear even though the hotplate may still be hot. Hotplate blocking function Blocking of the hotplates prevents accidental changes while they are operating. The initial selections are maintained and the indicators remain active. The hotplates should be blocked to prevent children from operating them or to prevent the effects of accidental contact with cookware or utensils. Unblocking Touch the blocking sensor until its indicator pilot light switches off. [. . . ] If one or more sensors are pressed for more than 30 seconds (for instance a cooking pot or pan is resting on the sensor), the control will automatically be switched off and a warning will sound every 30 seconds while the sensor remains pressed. Most stainless steel, enamel, iron, ceramic and copper pans can be used on radiant cooktops. Aluminium pans are not recommended as they may stain the surface, unless they have stainless steel encapsulated bottoms. Pans that have been used on gas cookers are not normally completely flat and absorb heat badly. [. . . ]
