Frying sensor function
18 Frying sensor function
The frying sensor function maintains the correct tem-
perature in the frying pan when frying. This function is
available for all cooking zones.
Temperature sensors are located underneath the hob.
These monitor the temperature of the base of the frying
pan.
The sensors measure the temperature of the cookware
throughout the cooking process. This ensures that the
cooking power is controlled with high precision to
maintain the correct temperature and achieve optimum
cooking results.
18.1 Advantages when frying
¡
The cooking zone only continues heating for as long
as this is necessary to maintain the temperature.
This saves energy and prevents the oil or fat from
overheating.
¡
A signal tone sounds when the empty pan has
reached the optimum temperature for adding oil and
for adding the food.
Notes
¡
Do not place a lid on the pan. Otherwise, the func-
tion is not activated correctly. Use a splatter guard
to prevent fat from spitting out.
¡
Use oil or fat that is suitable for stir fries. If you are
using butter, margarine, cold-pressed olive oil or
lard, use temperature setting or .
¡
Never leave a frying pan unattended during heating,
regardless of whether or not it contains food.
¡
If the cooking zone is a higher temperature than the
cookware or vice versa, the frying sensor is not ac-
tivated correctly.
¡
For frying with a large amount of oil, always use the
cooking sensor function. For frying with a large
amount of oil in a pan, set the temperature to
170-180 °C.
18.2 Suitable cookware
Select the cooking zone that best matches the dia-
meter of the base of the cookware. Place the cookware
