Tab. 4.1 Display meanings
Knob operation
The operating panel is equipped with two control knobs.
The left control knob has no function and is purely there
for aesthetic reasons.
To operate the device, set the right control knob to the
corresponding power level.
The digital cooking zone indicator shows the cooking
zone’s function or power level.
Operating indicator light
If the indicator light illuminates, the cooking zone is
switched on.
4.3 Functional principle
An induction coil is located underneath an induction
cooking zone. If the cooking zone is switched on, this
coil creates a magnetic field that acts directly on the
base of the pot thus heating it up. The cooking zone is
only indirectly heated up by the heat emitted by the pot.
Cooking zones with induction only work if the cookware
has a magnetisable base.
