The instruction manual is the same for various different
hobs. You can find the hob dimensions in the overview
of models.
The hotplates
Notes
■
Any dark areas in the glow pattern of the hotplate
are due to technical reasons. The function of the
hotplate is not affected.
■
Hotplate temperature is regulated by the heat
switching on and off.The heat may also switch on
and off at the highest setting.
This ensures e.g.:
– sensitive components are protected from
overheating
– the appliance is protected from electrical
overload
– better cooking results are achieved
■
With multi-circuit hotplates the heater elements of the
inner filament circuits and the heater element of the
activations may switch on and off at different times.
Combination cooking zone
The single-circuit hotplates can be operated without the
bridge heating element independently of each other or
combined with the bridge heating element as described
in the table.
The small extended cooking zone (1 +3) and the single-
circuit hotplate (2) can also be operated independently
of one another using different heat settings. Different
temperature ranges are therefore generated on the
large roaster, the Teppanyaki or the grill plate, for
example. The small extended cooking zone can then be
used to fry a meal and the single-circuit hotplate
simultaneously used to keep a meal warm.
Note:
Suitable cookware is available from the after-
sales service or our e-Shop.
Hotplate and residual heat indicators
The hotplate and residual heat indicators light up when
a hotplate is warm:
■
Hotplate indicator - during operation, shortly after
you have switched on a hotplate.
■
Residual heat indicator - after cooking, when the
hotplate is still warm.
You can use the residual heat to save energy, e.g. to
keep a small dish warm or to melt chocolate.
