The Key Features of Your Appliance
•
Glass ceramic cooking surface:
The appliance has a glass ceramic
cooking surface and 5 rapid response cooking zones. The particularly
powerful radiant heater elements significantly shorten the amount of
time taken for the zones to heat up.
•
Sensor fields:
Your appliance is operated using Touch Control sensor
fields.
•
Cleaning:
The advantage of the ceramic glass cooking surface and
the sensor fields is their accessibility for cleaning. The smooth, flat
surface is easy to clean.
•
On/Off sensor field:
The “On/Off” sensor field provides the appliance
with a separate mains switch. Touching this switches the power sup-
ply on or off completely.
•
Control and function indicators:
Digital indicators or control lamp
provide information about settings made, functions activated, as well
as any residual heat of the corresponding cooking zone.
•
Safety cut-out:
A safety cut-out ensures that all cooking zones
switch off automatically after a period of time if the setting has not
been changed.
•
Keep warm setting:
1
is the setting for keeping foods warm.
•
Residual heat indicator:
An
h
for residual heat is shown in the dis-
play if the cooking zone becomes so hot that there is a risk of burn-
ing.
•
Frying zone:
The hob has a special frying zone. This can be set to ei-
ther the round or the oval shape, for example when using a fryer.
•
Triple ring cooking zone:
The hob features a triple-ring cooking
zone. This zone can be set to different sizes, for example to fit smaller
pots. This will save power.
•
Timer:
All zones can be automatically switched off using the inte-
grated timer. When the end of the cooking time has been reached,
the cooking zone switches off.
•
Power Management:
When the front left, rear right and front right
cooking zones are used simultaneously the hob control automatically
brings about the optimal distribution of heating power (see section
“Power Management”).
