Composition of the cookware base
The material(s) from which the base of the cookware is
made may affect the cooking result. Cookware made of
materials that distribute heat evenly in the pot, such as
saucepans with a stainless steel sandwich base, save
time and energy.
You should ideally use cookware with a flat base, as
uneven cookware bases impair the heat supply.
No cookware/cookware of an unsuitable size
If you do not place cookware on the selected cooking
zone or the cookware is made of an unsuitable mater-
ial or is not the right size for the cooking zone, the dis-
play for the cooking zone flashes. To switch off the dis-
play, place a suitable item of cookware on the cooking
zone. If you do not place a suitable item of cookware
on the cooking zone within nine minutes, it automatic-
ally switches off.
Empty cookware or cookware with a thin base
Do not heat empty items of cookware and do not use
cookware with a thin base. The hob is equipped with
an internal safety system. However, empty cookware
may heat up so quickly that the "Automatic switch-off"
function does not respond in good time and an excess-
ive temperature is reached. As a result, the base of the
cookware may melt and damage the glass plate. In this
case, do not touch the cookware, and switch off the
cooking zone. If the cooking zone no longer works
after cooling down, contact the technical customer ser-
vice.
Cookware detection
Each cooking zone has a minimum limit for the cook-
ware detection and this depends on the ferromagnetic
diameter and the material of the base of the cookware.
Therefore, always use the cooking zone that best cor-
responds to the diameter of the pot base.
