4.8 Residual heat warning
If the appliance has been operated for a while, the cooking zones
will emit residual heat even after operation. In such a case the
letter "H" is indicated.
WARNING!
While the appliance is disconnected from the mains the
residual heat indicator does not work, so the cooking
zones may be still hot. Be very careful!
4.9 Automatic switch-off

appliance. The automatic switch-off is activated, when you
forgot to switch off a cooking zone after operation.

5. Energy saving advice
Use proper cookware for cooking.
Cookware with thick, flat bases can save up to 1/3 of electric
energy. Remember to cover your cookware if possible;
otherwise you will use four times as much energy!
Match the size of the cookware to the surface of the heating
plate. A cookware should never be smaller than a heating
plate.
Ensure that the heating plates and the cookware are clean.
Soils prevent heat-transfer. Repeatedly burnt-on spillages
can often be removed by products, which will damage the
environment, only.
Do not uncover the cookware too often.
