6.5 Residual heat indicator
The hob has a two-stage residual heat indicator for
each cooking zone. This indicates that a cooking zone
is still hot. Do not touch the cooking zone if the resid-
ual heat indicator is lit.
The following is displayed depending on the amount of
residual heat:
¡
display: High temperature
¡
display: Low temperature
The illuminated ring on the control knob flashes.
If the FlexPlus cooking zone has been activated, the
FlexPlus cooking zone display also lights up.
If you remove the cookware from the cooking zone dur-
ing cooking, the power level indicator flashes and the
illuminated ring on the control knob lights up orange.
If you switch off the cooking zone, the residual heat in-
dicator lights up and the illuminated ring on the control
knob flashes. Even if the hob has already been
switched off, the residual heat indicator remains lit for
as long as the cooking zone remains warm.
7 Operating modes
You can use your appliance in air extraction mode or
circulating-air mode.
7.1 Air extraction mode
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease fil-
ters and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system.
The air must not be discharged into a
flue that is used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other
fuels (not applicable to appliances that
only discharge the air back into the
room).
¡
If the exhaust air is to be conveyed
into a non-functioning smoke or ex-
haust gas flue, you must obtain the
consent of the heating engineer re-
sponsible.
¡
If the exhaust air is conveyed
through the external wall, a tele-
scopic duct should be used.
7.2 Air recirculation
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease fil-
ters and an odour filter, and conveyed back into the
room.
To bind odours in air recirculation
mode, you must install an odour filter.
The different options for operating the
appliance in air circulation mode can
be found in our catalogue. Alternatively,
ask your dealer. The required accessor-
ies are available from specialist retail-
ers, from our after-sales service or from
the online shop.
Note:
When cooking intensively and for a long time,
moisture is released into the air in the room. When us-
ing the appliance in air recirculation mode, we recom-
mend ventilating the kitchen adequately, e.g. by briefly
opening a window to remove excessive moisture.
8 Before using for the first time
