Thermoelectric flame monitoring
For your safety, this cooktop features thermoelectric
flame monitoring. This prevents gas escaping, if a
burner accidentally goes off during use (for example

the control knob to the OFF position and wait at least
30 seconds before re-igniting the burner.
Settings table and tips
Tips for cooking and roasting
The values given in the settings table must be looked
upon as recommended values. The heat required
depends not only on the type and condition of the
food, but also the size and contents of the pot.
Due to the high performance of the cooktop, fat and
oil will heat up quickly. Never leave the cooktop
unattended, fat can ignite, food can burn.
Preferably use the rear cooking zones to prepare
meals, that need longer to cook.
Preferably use the high output burners for brief
cooking, deep fat frying and searing of large
quantities.
