Main switch with memory function
The heating and timer settings remain stored for
5 seconds after the hob has been switched off.
If you switch the hob on again within 5 seconds
after having switched it off accidentally, the hob will
operate using the previously stored settings.
Residual heat display
The residual heat display appears on the display of
the relevant cooking zone after switching off. The
moving zero in the display indicates that, after
switching off, a cooking zone has still not cooled
down to such an extent that it can be safely
touched.
m
Caution, risk of burns!
Only touch cooking
zones after the residual heat display has gone
off.
Tips on saving energy
Use good quality saucepans and pots with thick,
even bases.
Select the correct saucepan size for each cooking
zone.The diameter of the bases of the saucepans
and pots should match the size of the cooking zone.
Note: Ovenware manufacturers often give the
diameter of the top of the saucepan. It is usually
larger than the diameter of the base of the
saucepan.
Use a small saucepan for small quantities. A larger,
less full saucepan requires more energy.
Saucepans and pots should always be covered with
a suitable lid to shorten cooking times. Cooking
without a lid requires much more energy.
Cook with small quantities of water. This saves
energy and helps vegetables to retain vitamins and
minerals.
Switch down to a lower heat setting in good time.
For longer cooking times you can switch off the
cooking zone before the end of the cooking time
and then use the residual heat.
