Elica NikolaTesla Switch Induction Venting Hob - Black - A+

The Airmatic function is an intelligent system that automatically adjusts the extractor fan speed. It detects the amount of steam and odors produced during cooking and increases or decreases the suction power as needed, providing optimal air purification without manual input from the user.

Bridge Zones allow you to combine two adjacent induction cooking zones into one larger zone. This is useful for accommodating oversized pots, griddles, or rectangular baking dishes that wouldn't fit on a single standard zone, providing even heating across a larger surface.

The Revolution Filter's regeneration frequency depends on your cooking habits. However, it typically needs to be regenerated every 2-3 months for optimal performance. The filter can be regenerated for up to 5 years. Always refer to your product manual for detailed instructions on the regeneration process.

This is an induction hob, so it requires cookware with a magnetic base. Materials like cast iron, magnetic stainless steel, and some enameled steel pots are compatible. Non-magnetic materials like aluminum, copper, glass, or non-magnetic stainless steel will not work. You can test compatibility by sticking a magnet to the bottom of your pot or pan.

The Pot Detector is an energy-saving feature. It automatically senses when a pot is placed on an induction zone and activates that zone. Conversely, if a zone is turned on but no pot is present, it prevents energy waste by not heating up unnecessarily.

The Elica NikolaTesla Switch extractor operates with a noise level ranging from 33dBA at its lowest setting to 66dBA at its maximum extraction power. The Airmatic function helps maintain efficient extraction while minimizing noise by only using the necessary power.

First, ensure your cookware is induction-compatible (magnetic base). Check that the pot is centered on the cooking zone. If the issue persists, ensure the pot is completely flat on the surface and the zone is free of debris. Consult the manual for specific error codes if displayed.

Check if the Revolution Filter needs cleaning or regeneration. A clogged filter will reduce extraction efficiency. Also, ensure the ducting is clear and unobstructed. Verify that the Airmatic function is enabled and the fan speed isn't manually set too low for the cooking intensity.

The Elica NikolaTesla Switch features an 'invisible display' design when on standby. This is normal. To activate, typically touch the power button or place a pot on a cooking zone. If it's completely unresponsive, check the power connection at the wall and the circuit breaker.
